WiiU, 3DS is the Future of FPS

The gyroscrope first person control in both of these devices (Vita?) is the most intuitive and responsive method to aim I've ever used. I became a believer of that today after I started playing OoT 3D.

The gyroscope aiming is super easy and intuitive and I can see if being a very fun option in FPS for the upcoming generation. Imagine playing FPS is an office chair and spinning around to turn. I seriously can't wait to see some games utilize this. (especially survival horror). I would obviously want current control methods to stay around with it but I see this new motion control having a huge impact on the future.

nah. it's a neat little feature, but doesn't replace traditional control methods in the slightest.

Battlefield is the future of the FPS genre, and it belongs to the Xbox and PlayStation. Try again.

They call this spherical view and I love it. It's like the controller of Wii U is a window to the game world and it's all happening around you.

:lol:

Funny stuff brah, but Call of Duty hasn't been relevant to gaming since 2007.

Of course not, that's why every single FPS developer has been copying it, since 2007.

does it work that well? I found the gyroscopic controls on the FaceHunters AR game to be very difficult to position properly. I was quite frustrated by it actually.

How about the touch pad? In theory, the touchpad could almost function like a mousepad. If one could use their thumb and not a stylus to aim on the screen, the 3DS could definitely be great with FPS games.

Seriously dude!Stop going off topic intopics that are not related to CallofDuty. We know how much you're in love with the franchise, but can you please give it a breakonce and for all. If you want to talk about the game so much create your own thread about it or talk about it in the SW lounge.

I hope this ends up being true in the future for both platforms.

im sorry but NOTHING will come close to mouse in terms of accuracy or keybaord in terms of effectiveness or utility..

and when all else fail novint falcon.. wut now ???

the DS's attempt at fps & tps were laughable and i doubt theyve made any significant improvements to that..

the wii u.. ninja prease..

Does anyone know if the Vita has this built-in as well? I'm already kind of tempted to buy one.TigerWars

They where experimenting with the idea, but you need a PS3 and a Vita for that, so don't expect much support in that regard, like with Move, it's "peripheral" status.

With Wii U the secondary screen is the main feature of the system.

If you're talking about the 3DS type of Gyro, Vita has sixaxis technology, I don't think it works as a gyro, it's more for tilting stuff.

This is 100% true.

But. Wii U's spherical view is more immersive and fun to use. It feels like the game world is around you, it's a new type of experience.

It's sort of like comparing Wii Sports Tennis to an actual tennis game, different experience, you play the former for arcady fun, not for competetive precision.

Nobody is saying that this will replace other means of input in terms of accuracy and such. It's just a neat option, sure you'll get tired after hours of usage, but I don't mind that, it's more fun.

and by the time the gmaing world will perfect this technology microsoft will have made their VR room technology consumer affordable..

yes microsoft has a holodeck!! (atm its for networking & administration but soon.. soon you shall feel my wrath like never before!)

yep hence why we big kids refer to CoD as cawa dooty!

Dual analog: Simply too slow.
IR Pointer: Too jittery (and to some, too much effort).
Mouse and Keyboard: A little jittery, turning a decent amount requires mouse hopping (personally a little uncomfortable (especially with the keys)).

I have yet to see a perfect home console method for a FPS. I dunno if this will be it, but it has potential.

The Wii and its controller was supposed to be the future but those insolent developers and publishers never quite made sufficient use of it to make it big.

cant wait for silent scope wii u

Anyway, the concept sounds great, especially if you have a wheely chair. Once again, however, I must stress that those insolent publishers and developers have to make use of the feature in order for it to shine.

I love playing OoT3D in an office swivel chair :3

While I do like the gyroscope aiming in OoT, PC is the past, present and future of FPS

Analog sticks and a keyboard + mouse are both 10x better wit FPS games...

Mouse & keyboard is superior. More responsive, more precise, allows for more complexity.

There is no way that a gyroscope is the future of FPS. The thought of playing BF3 without kb + mouse makes me cringe.

If the 3DS, vita, or Wii U can mimic how this game feels...

then I can totally see FPS working well with a gyro control scheme.

Like someone said earlier, as long as it's an option and not a requirement. Wasn't this said about the Wiimote as well though? :|

tell that to the 90 percent of devs copying them

I rather use the stylus and the touch screen, thank you very much.

Yeah...that's what they said about the Wiimote. I'd wait and see.

spin... around... on an office chair.... to turn....... Well I get you 3DS lovers do LOVE those headaches and eyestrain, now with added dizzyness and nausia. Seriously you didnt think that through =/Birdy09

I experienced a minor eyestrain in one eye day one, and zero side effects after that.

As for the gyro, I have an office chair but I barely spin at all mostly all I do is move my arms when aiming in OoT and I can say that it's more faster and fun that way. I'd have to play a shooter or something to judge its accuracy more farily, but it's good in OoT the only issue is that you can't keep your arms 100% still so the 'cursor' will move around a little. Overall I can see it replace dual analogue.

Edit: Obviously you have to turn the 3D off for the gyro, the feature is more relevant on Wii U.

im sick of fps so why should i care all i know is nintendo offers more then just that so ill still be happy , with or without those features

i doubt ill be b uying 3 consoles again , this gen was worthless , the worst gen in history

and all those fpses prove this for me ,

and the fact a game that took 15 years to make got out scored by call of duty a game which is made every freakin year and still is bad lol
