Those oldies could be sadistically difficult. Time before "casual" gaming.Fun that y'all are both bringing up games from 1998.
Well, I guess skiz brought up some even older ones, but with newer remakes, so hard to know what they are talking about.

Probably. My point was that having difficult NPC's in FPS games is not hard for game devs.
Of course. SC's NPCs are a lot trickier as they desync, teleport behind you, and shoot you in the head. Nasty things those SC NPCs
Agreed, and even me, someone who prefers PvE over PvP, if i want a real shooter experience its with the PvP arena games, not predominantly PvE games with arenas thrown in. However, doing CZs are fun and a decent way to work the BGS or just for a bit of pew-pew on the side.
Or Overwatch or others like it.
Even though I'm more a solo player myself, I concede my most thrilling moments in FPS gaming were with Tribes series, ETQW, UT and BF2
Yet solo FPSes are even more important for me, and by extension the immersive sim genre is the best thing to happen to the first person perspective gaming, and I must say EDO brought elements from this and there's more than CZ to encompass what EDO is about.
In that regard, SC is in most areas absolutely retrograde and amateurish in its first person design outside of the seamless in/out of ships.

"Competitive" wasn't in your original statement btw.
this all started with the bread dude's comment who i have been paraphrasing anyways
EDIT: even given that though, I dont know how you get a rabid fps addict who isnt competitive
The same way you can be an mmo addict without being PvP focused, or even - horror - never engage in PvP.
Maybe if you're overly competitive...otherwise, nah. When it comes to the Tom Clancy stuff like GR or R6, I much preferred the old GR and R6 that had a campaign and multiplayer coop PvE. R6 Siege is universally hated by the older Tom Clancy franchise fans as much as it's liked by the newer breed of PvP twitch shooters.
I'm currently trying out Ready or Not with a few mates...kinda like a SWAT 4 rehash currently in early access on Steam. It's pretty good...Ai is brutal too. Even with 4 of us playing as a team we haven't all survived or successfully completed a single mission yet. Came close a few times but having to arrest some of the perps (some of them drop their weapons and run...some surrender after being challenged), avoid killing civvies or hostages but still plasti-cuff them to stop them running around and getting in the way... as well as follow strict IFF ROE with the bad guys who sometimes use the civvies as human shields, it's certainly challenging enough.
Failed the last mission we tried because the last bad guy alive or not arrested started to surrender as I burst into the room by kicking down the door, went to drop his weapon then said "F... you pig!" and shot me in the face
Some random dudes doing it proper...

Would you buy it if it came with LTI though?!
10K whale declares if CIG were to add NFTs to SC it would be the breaking point for them.
Not universally.
OK...let's just say I hated Siege then
It's just like most of the 'new' Tom Clancy rubbish Ubi keep firing out like the Division and GR Breakpoint...not proper TC stuff at all

Looks like relative speeds are not yet a thing for missiles? Love the workarounds: "Try go make a quick brake or strafe before shoot missile. Sometime because your ship speed is matching with initial launch speed of missile so missile ended up at your shield. Did have problem on my connie, im strafing side way when shooting missiles now and low speed. No issues."

I mean I can understand people can have fun with whatever it is that SC has, by all means. People have fun even with a hoop and a stick too so whatever floats your boat
. But trying to compare the current state of SC with any other actual game out there is just risible.

Some people even claim to have fun playing ED when they could be playing with a hoop and stick instead. Its crazy!
