Any good parkour-based shooters?
Recently I've been thinking that a game that might be really badass is a game where you can free run with SMGs or dual handguns or something like that. I've heard of Mirror's Edge, and I'm planning on getting that sometime, and I've heard of Brink, but I've heard a lot of complaints about that game. Any other shooters where you can free run and blow stuff up like a ridiculous action movie hero?

Mirror's Edge isn't really a shooter (you rarely have a gun and when you do it'll only have ~3 bullets before you discard it) and Brink isn't good!

I'm struggling to think of anything that really meets your expectations :(

Dying Light look like itll be good. though its not coming out for a year. :/

Bioshock: Infinite maybe has this to some degree, I watched a few trailers of it where you would crisscross around using zip lines or so at a pretty high speed gunning at enemies. Haven't played it myself though.

Just Cause seems like a pretty fast run and gun game too.

Ho-ly crap, that's a bloodly MINT ideal!!! As for the games I haven't play them, so I wouldn't know. Nor can I think of any game that fit you demands! Sorry.

I knew Mirror's Edge didn't focus much on shooting, but it sounds like running around with a fair ammount of ammo and epic free-running skills would be pretty badass.

I had almost forgotten about that game! Now I'm excited for it again. Thanks for reminding me.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm thinking if I ever learn to create games, something like this might be the first one I make, but maybe combine it with the ability to play as a standard soldier type guy, a heavy-type guy with heavy armor and a machine gun, or a free-running action movie hero with dual handguns. I hope somebody makes this.

I'm not sure what games you own but I think left 4 dead 2 meets all your demands in some form or another, look into it - thats the closest thing I can think of.

He is asking for good games, not cheap korean pay to win games plagued by cheaters lags douchebags and whatnot.

GunZ is totally for you. One of the most unique multiplayer fps' I've ever played. It has everything you've described, only it takes quite a high skill level to play. And one other thing... the original game server was shut down because it was overrun by hackers. It is quite sad to be honest, since the game had potential. However, if your still interested there are private servers where quite a few people still play, check out FGunz :CrossedBlades:

If he likes playing ♥♥♥♥♥*y Korean free-to-play games then he should go for it.

Never played it, but Unreal Tournament?
If I'm not mistaking that one is rather fast paced.

Just because you sucked at it, doesn't mean its a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game. Neither is it a pay to win... and you can't cheat in the game unless you're hacking. Pfft... get your facts straight. Oh and you suggested Just Cause and Bioshock Infinite... lol. 0/10. :CrossedBlades:

cheating is cheating who cares how we call it. its just another example of why korean developers cant make good games, and why they should stay away from free-to-play. aside from its action which is indeed a bit unique its plagued by the same things as all the other ten billion f2p games that emerge from there - generic/chlichee style and visual design, tons of cheaters/hackers, "gold"farmers or the like, lags, bad balancing, endless grinding, depending more on finger-twitching or timesinking than actual skill, bad community, bad support. thats more than enough for me to stay away from these kinds of games. its nothign personal against gunz in particular, i just dislike any korean games by principle.

Haven't played it myself, but I've heard that Warsow is pretty good if you're looking for parkour/fast-paced shooting. Plus, it's free, so there isn't really any risk involved in trying it out: http://www.warsow.net/ .
