Best multiplayer shooter of the gen (thus far)?

I have to go with Siege. It's tactical, requires strategy, teamwork and outsmarting your opponents. It's also the most fun I've had with a full party since TLOU. While other games are fun (halo 5, Splatoon, battlefront) this one just doesn't get old as quickly as the others have so far for me.

What is the best multiplayer shooter so far of this gen to you?

Can I say CS:GO? I mean, it's not like PC games conform to any sort of generations anyways, and it's the only one worth playing competitively.

Battlefield 4

Titanfall (not necessary the best though)

Destiny, still really enjoy the iron banner.

cs:go Insurgency

Division. Period.

Splatoon is my favorite. I wanna try out Siege, hopefully it gets a good discount in a PSN sale some time.

CS: GO is the best, Splatoon is the worst

Halo 5.

@charizard1605: it's like 38.99 right now on psn store

Halo 5 for me, it's the one I keep going back to regularly, it's got my favorite gameplay right now and I like how they have been supporting it regularly every month and will add PVE mode Firefight soon.

I do play other shooters regularly depending on my mood.,....yesterday after a night out I came back home and just wasn't in the mood for Halo and played a bunch of Garden Warfare 2 matches....goofy fun stuff. I got OVerwatch and Doom preordered man it's a busy year for me for shooters and I have so many other games I need to finish though as well and all these shooters coming out it's driving me nuts finding the time to play everything I want lol.

@Alucard_Prime: I'm probably going to be getting overwatch. The doom beta was okay but very generic, halo rip off almost. Don't know if I'd pay full price if that's all there is to the multiplayer

@jcrame10: Hmmm, that's very tempting.

@charizard1605: its really fun with a full party with mics. and the matches are pretty unpredictable and go at different paces. thats what makes it so different and unique compared to anything else out right now.

Out of what I've played:

1. Halo 5

2. Splatoon

3. Destiny: The Taken King

4. Star Wars: Battlefront

Halo 5 and Splatoon are both amazing so far.

Splatoon or Rainbow Six: Siege.

@jcrame10: What about Battleborn? Any idea what the buzz sourrounding that game is like? During a brief moment of mental weakness, I pre-ordered the game on impulse lol. It looks good and I liked the dev's previous games , PVE as far as I know....damn, just too many shooters this year lol

Splatoon or Battlefront.

Destiny is the only MP I play. I'm not really into competitive shooters though. I only play it for the loot and because its gameplay is fantastic despite its shortcomings in other aspects of the game

@Alucard_Prime: battleborn kind of looks like a worse version of overwatch. Too bad they're releasing so close together.

Halo 5 . Warzone and arena are amazing . free maps and updates are a great idea . just as you want to get out they pull you back in with a new update .

CS:GO count? If not, gonna go with Overwatch.

Halo 5

Splatoon

Titanfall

Garden Warfare 1/2

@iambatman7986: Don't you just love how distinct Garden WArfare 2 is? I mean where the hell else can you get destroyed by a popcorn attack lol. I loved how all my unlocks from the first game carried over to the 2nd, good move from the dev.

It's got me thinking about all the different kind of shooters coming out this gen, these guys are all competing for our time.....each shooter I have in my library is calling out to me " hey come play me today, I've got new DLC! A new map! come join the fun!' ....this is turning out to be a nice generation for shooter fans.

Can you imagine being an indie dev and wanting to come out with a shooter? Why even bother unless you can pull a Superhot(I think that's what it's called) type thing. You'll just be crushed under all the higher-profile shooters duking it out. These big guys have huge marketing budgets as well.....oh well, not being pessimistic and good luck to any indie devs out there who are coming out with shooters, nothing is impossible.

CSGO imo.

Shooters this gen have been absolutely horrible and spread thin on top of that. I would have to say that the best mechanics and gameplay goes to BF4, however the better maps are on BFH. RSS is a hot steaming pile of horse shit... why? Simple. The game could have been great, and I was really looking forward to a tactical shooter that was squad based.... However.. and that's a huge however, It fell completely flat. The "modes" if that is what you want to call them are basically just elimination. "Strategy" requires camping and/or assaulting a single room, rinse, wash, repeat. There is very little "strategy" in the game. Going outside lights an enemy up on the radar, maps are completely uninspired, everyone scrambles to use the same couple agents, shields are ridiculously over powered, I could keep going for a day and a half, but that's good for now.. trash. Other than that what's left? CoD? Yeah... no.

What happened to the others... no more SOCOM, Ghost Recon, Medal of Honor, etc.... we need something else. These cookie cutter generic shooters are crap.

It is so sad when freaking Battlefield games are at the top of a shooter list (I play one life modes).... I would have said The Division, but since it is more of an RPG, players with lesser gear don't have much of a chance against better geared enemies or player characters. Thus making it less of a competitive shooter and more of an MMO minus the fact that zones are based on level and there are currently several flaws with the design.

Still waiting on a game that is a true MP experience that keeps me coming back for more without "well, my friends are playing it, and there is currently nothing better to play."

I'm a little bit confuse, is BF4 this gen? Than it is.

With his amazing amount of content for the price, maps, guns, vehicle, gadget.
With his excellent gameplay that offer awesome infantry fight. And also awesome vehicle fight.

And the graphics are very good. The sound and immersion is very good too.

And also it come with Battlelog, the best thing to connect!

Splatoon is my favorite, it was one of my favorite overall games this gen.

lol @ people saying cs:go...

• Titanfall
• Destiny
• The Division

1. CS GO (PC)

2. Overwatch (PC)

CS:GO > Overwatch >>> Everything Else. The upcoming Unreal Tournament has incredible potential however the game is currently in pre-alpha development and a long way from release.

Counter Strike Global Offensive is the only correct answer

@dynamitecop: Counterstrike has been played in large numbers for almost 20 years straight regardless of innovations in technology, design or flavor of the moment.

Doing something right.

Doesn't make GO any less of a shitty and mechanically illogical game, it's defined by its gimmicks and feature sets, not its gameplay, 1.6 and god forbid even Source do that better.

@dynamitecop: Haven't played much of it, but from what was read it fixes balancing issues making other weapons largely irrelevant, relevant.

That's where CS:GO comes in. Play ranked in that game and you won't complain about there being a lack of demand for skill or team strategy in a game. In fact, I'd say more than any other game you've mentioned. The game is pretty damn legit in that regard.

The other weapons being irrelevant was never a problem, Valve and Hidden Path just viewed it as one because "we're the developers". The fact of the matter is most people didn't really care and still don't, 90% of the weapons are just as irrelevant as they ever were.

Titanfall>halo 5>siege>bf4>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>everything else

CSGO for competitive tactical team shooters Rainbow Six Siege would be runner up here and Black Ops 3 for non competitive shooter games Battlefield Hardline is runner up here.

None. They all suck for one reason or another.

Halo 5, PvZ GW, Titanfall.

Battlefield 4 gets my vote. BF4 is not only my favorite shooter this generation, it's also one of my all-time favorites.

@vfighter: it is most definitely THE Division

@beardmad: cs go is last gen
