It isn’t worth all the flashy graphics and cinematic flair, play a game with modding support that can actually grow (and then not be abruptly shutdown with no warning).
Check out Operation Harsh Doorstop the free and quickly growing tactical shooter with large maps, vehicles and already functioning mod support with mods that do everything up to tweak the basic gunplay to feel more like COD. Want to just go fly a heli around a giant island for casual fun and ignore the shooty bits? go for it!
OHD is themed like a modern tactical shooter, but the main developer is laser focused on making an accessible platform for people to make the next awesome big map (with vehicles) shooter on (or who knows what kind of game it will be? Rocket league came out of UT2004 buggies being used in custom gamemodes as one example…).
Also check out Easy Red 2 the superb, crossplatform WW2 shooter with a plethora of period accurate vehicles (including planes which are a blast) and scenarios that usually get ignored. $9 is highway robbery for this game. AI is great too, you can do stuff like drive a halftrack up to an objective and easily order troops to dismount and attack. Gunplay in this game feels great, so does supporting the dev who seems very devoted to the game and adding lots of historical detail that an EA boardroom would laugh their asses at for the dev putting so much effort into things that don’t necessarily make the trailer look cooler.
I love OHD, the gunplay is great and I think the community development focus is really cool and will plant the seeds for lots of new games no one has even thought of yet!
I tried all 3 beta alpha test and it was unplayable on my PC. Not to mention always active kernel anticheat (from what Ive read it’s terrible) from a Chinese gacha company. Big shame because it looks fun.

What is that in company value percentage?
Positive news. This is rare.
fuck em. I hope it crashes to zero. I’ve been boycotting them forever, I hope it dies.
Yeah, I never thought I’d be cheering for FIFA, but I’m looking forward to them coming out with their EA fc competitor.
But really, which organization is actually worse? It’s a close fuckin race
This is amazing news. I personally haven’t given them a penny in well over a decade.
These milkmaids can get fukt
Good.
… but is still trading at over $100. Here’s for hoping the share price keeps dropping
I hope they lose $30B. Fuck’em.
Maybe this next Battlefield won’t suck. #hopium

Oh hell yes, Harsh Doorstep looks fantastic, thank you!
This is the current vehicle mod, though a new OHD update is coming out soon.

It is my pleasure to share !
If you’re on PC, the new Delta Force game is giving me my Battlefield fix. I think its in open beta, but once it fully releases will be on console.
I tried all 3
betaalpha test and it was unplayable on my PC. Not to mention always active kernel anticheat (from what Ive read it’s terrible) from a Chinese gacha company. Big shame because it looks fun.“What’s that? More Fortnite? Okay, benevolent and all-knowing market, we hear you loud and clear.”
