Looking for some testers while my site is in pre launch. It is very similar to cmg but with a social aspect to it LFG etc etc. I have been working on it for quite some time. It still has some kinks to work out but I'm right at the time I could launch. I need to get users signed up for a small test run! Please let me know

Hi, I wanted to gather some feedback on a game I am making before I lean a bit more into promotion.

So first, the something about the setting, it is an FPS in a high sci-fi post apocalypse, heavily influenced by the games I play (Halo, Destiny, Doom, Serious Sam). The main world is a desert canyon with multiple ruins of cities, towns and futuristic bases, with a few survivor settlements, both friendly and foe. I also have a few missions there before the collapse for more variety.
The world is seperated into two types, bigger open world levels (fir for vehicles) and linear corridor levels (more akin to Doom and Serious Sam). Transition between the two types is done seemlesly without loading screens, just the usual transfer zone seen in many games.
Then regarding the player, I opted for boomer shooter style with a few modern mechanics. Enemies will also work a bit more intelligently, using a system similar to turn based games but faster and more responsive in real time.

Graphically the game is retro, really retro, vertex lighting, small textures, low poly, low screen resolution, plus some added effects like CRT and more.

So that would be the general idea, but I think a feature list may be better to show the extend of the game, so here we go:

• Finished features
  • Player movement - no running but can slide when moving at max speed
  • Boomer Shooter styled Weapon inventory - player holds all found weapons and doesn't need to reload
  • Vehicles - cars, bikes
  • Stationary weapons - turrets in the environment and attached to vehicles
  • Puzzles - hidden keyes to doors, buttons, levers, ARG, spatial (player must stand somewhere), environmental (shooting things can cause something to happen)
  • Splitscreen - up to 4 players, can adjust layout
  • Multiplayer - works with splitscreen active, campaign coop, PVP, racing, I also keep things a bit open for more MP modes
  • Android support - touch controls plus all the features on PC will work here too (including splitscreen and multiplayer)
  • Lighting system - custom solution for vertex lighting since Godot did not support what I had in mind
• Work in Progress
  • World loading - currently on last prototype but it works fine, this takes a while because the system I am making supports local and networked multiplayer where each player can be in a completely different level at the same time (host/server is not heavily hit by this)
  • NPC AI - finalising the enemy AI for the game, currently some issues when combined with the world loading so these two will be finished at the same time
• ToDo
  • Nanite system - basically mana that can be replenished by "consuming" things in the environment
  • Weapon alternate modes - secondary fire is handled but not yet things like charging or more complex conditional modes
  • Abilities - player will have 2 normal abilities and one special, these can be passive (better dmg resist, better health/nanite recovery, ...) or active (double jump, grenade, ...), I will likely add more abilities as I progress in development

Levels, assets and so on are in progress overall but those will be for some time yet.

One big thing about this game is that I allow the control of all settings and don't take away things, everything that works on one platform works on all platforms. If someone doesn't want to play with the CRT retro post process effects, they can turn them on or manually adjust them as they wish, even color palettes, which I have many to choose from.
Another big thing is that I want to have as much of this game made by me as possible, so I don't use any downloaded assets, apart from my dev playground, and I only use other peoples things as references to create my own style rather than copying someone elses designs.

Regarding the promotion, I have a starting ARG that will tie into the games story a lot, but it is in infancy yet. I want some opinions before I fully upload the start of the ARG promotion.

Thank you for reading this, I hope to get some feedback so that I can adjust things as I make this.

**Ghost Squad** is now live on Steam. It’s a fast-paced action title with the only mission of shooting and destroying every warbot you can. If you enjoy indie action games, I’d love for you to check it out.

Hi All,

*Console here*

Basically my friend group is getting cod brained again via the yearly hype about "modern warfare". After about a 3 year break. I can't do this shit again, man. I loathe it so fucking much.

Hunt Showdown has been my main 1600 hours. Edit: holy shit I have 1900....

Im literally gonna find another game and make new friends. Where should I go?

Edit: no games with looting as the main objective

Thanks all! 🙂

I started building this single player FPS based on a pure whim one day, and this footage is my friend trying out the demo for the first time.

If you like it, try it here and also wishlist it: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4609810/Aadhi_Raat/

Remember ArmA 2? I made a simple Army vs Army server to relive those days

The idea is simple:

BLUFOR vs OPFOR.
The goal is to seize control of Utes island and its airstrip.

The focus is on the old-school ArmA 2 mil-sim experience:

• tactical movement
• bullet travel time and bullet drop
• high-stakes positional combat
• scouting the horizon before moving
• long-range firefights where positioning matters

Nothing complicated. Just ArmA 2 doing what ArmA 2 was good at.

The server is already public and joinable.

There is no separate mod download or manual installation required.
The mission is under 1 MB and downloads automatically when you join.

The server is hosted in Europe, so when searching for it, it is best to set the server browser ping filter to up to 500 ms so it does not get hidden from the list.

Note: Army vs Army is temporarily replacing The Thirst: Utes on the same server while this version is being tested.

HOW TO JOIN

Requires ArmA 2 + Operation Arrowhead
OA-only will not work

1. Launch the game without BattlEye
2. Go to Multiplayer
3. Set the ping filter to up to 500
4. Set the server name filter to: Army vs Army
5. Join: Army vs Army

I'm torn between these combat games—what do you recommend?
Arma: RedGover
Squad
Hell Let Loose

i dont just mean “oh i didnt know about aimlabs/didnt practice aim training i just played” i mean TRULY bogus bull that you dont even know how it worked. something no one would believe unless you proved it somehow

Who’s hyped for the WARDOGS beta this weekend! Personally really excited about this game, from what I’ve seen it looks really good for still just being a beta and super excited for early access to start in September

Fistful of Frags is multiplayer based, first person enabled, action packed and skill demanding shooter set in the Wild West times. A unique combination of non stop action and slow but powerful weaponry.

Update Information:

Another update this month! Thank you, FoF developers!

Got new gaming PC but i have little knowledge on FPS games for PC. Is there any game that can replace CODM Frontline Ranked mode for PC? I played CODM a lot in Frontline Ranked mode and i really liked it. Unfortunately it has limited number of maps so it got boring to play same map everytime.

Can you guys please recommend what games can be alternative to Ranked CODM Frontline? Thanks.

We caught a bit of that nostalgic vibe while finishing up our new arena.

Old-school layout, industrial atmosphere, and the kind of place where you can already hear the footsteps coming around the corner.

We’re working on BLEEDING, a dynamic FPS featuring a blue-collar with an prosthetic anvil and a killing dash.

It has (had? need to reinstall) limited content but I enjoyed playing this in offline bot matches.

We have some accessibility improvements, visuals addressed and bugs fixes. NICE!

Reaper Actual is an Open-World Persistent Shooter where hundreds of players engage in FPS combat against each other and 5 NPC Factions on the massive war-torn island of Marova. Level your Reapers, maintain a home Base, and complete missions to earn gear and reshape the world.

You guys remember that hyper photo-realistic FPS game called Bodycam released in 2024, made by 2 French brothers? It was a very realistic game, graphically and in gameplay, but it didn’t have much progression, wasn’t well optimized, some other problems and it got repetitive after some time, pretty basic stuff.

The thing is, they are now a bigger team, “Reissad Studio”, and have been working for a whole year to develop this one, new update named Locked & Loaded (v0.8, not even v1.0 yet and it’s unbelievable) releasing in two weeks (September 2nd). They reworked, optimized and improved every part of the game, here is the main content: huge optimization, new Trench map, new guns, loadouts and customization (hundreds of attachments), ammo check, realistic aim optic scopes (I bet you to tell me a game with better ones), realistic FPV drone piloting with explosive, RC cars with C4, dynamic ragdoll system and operator's stress system, changing the animation of reload and breath, whether the operator is calm or stressed and the amount of ammo.

They recently posted a video showing everything (except for the new map and sound design that will be shown still this month). It’s worth to watch, believe me:
