I’ve always liked the CoD formula, but unfortunately paying 70€ for the latest MW2 to play something so basic seems not worth it, especially when said game will be abandoned next year. I tried searching on the Steam store, but it feels like there are no serious alternatives on this market. Anyone has a good suggestion that could match what I’m looking for? Other than Titanfall 2, I already played this game too much

Quake 3 Arena is still around

Frag like is 1999
I played Quake champions and an open source arena shooter and quite liked it! Even if I wasnt around back then I think it’s an enjoyable style of game
xDefiant is looking like it might fill this niche. There is an open beta in a couple of weeks.
The Finals is also looking good, and had some unique spins such as 3v3v3.
Unfortunately there isn’t much out there that competes directly with CoD anymore, I’ve been looking for this type of game for years now.
xDefiant was what immediately came to my mind as well. OP should check it out. Feels more or less like one of the more arcade-y CoDs.
Thanks! Never heard of the finals
For what it’s worth, after playing the xDefiant beta, I can say it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for! Reminds me a lot of CoD Black Ops 1.
why not try teamfortress 2? still going strong
Bots though.
xDefiant is an upcoming one that might scratch that itch.
I heard about that one, I’ll keep an eye on it even if Ubisoft isn’t to be trusted IMO :D
The game director behind xDefiant (Mark Rubin) has previously worked on multiple CoD titles and has pretty openly communicated about how xDefiant is directly adressing a number of issues that the CoD community has with current CoD titles.
oh well it does make it feel more serious then
Respawn’s other property Apex Legends is fun if you’re really looking to save the money.
Apex is cool but the long ttk makes it feel way different imo
I’ve been playing Shatterline it’s Free to Play and pretty solid.
