Finally, the FPS I keep asking for: Deep combat, classic modes, and an honest-to-god server browser

Out of Action's acrobatic movement and chill server culture are plucked out of the 2000s.

The Specialists was amazing. Expect for the players who were min-maxing it, but they were rare. Most people were playing it for the fun of it.

I had completely memory holed The Specialists until just now.

Love how they incorporated the peak Matrix fanboy culture into that mod.

Oh, but this game is also single player, right? I remember playing the demo and wishlisting it because is was so satisfying the movement and the shooting. Is still single player o has it evolved to mainly multiplayer?

I think the article makes it pretty clear how this game is different than those.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but does it?

Honestly it looks (refreshingly) very much like quake just with modern graphics and a load-out system

Is there something I've missed?

Out of Action's big hook is its wild movement set: you can dodge, dive, dive roll, slide, wallrun, and double jump. The only thing you can't do is, surprisingly, sprint. Getting around efficiently isn't just about speed—it's about chaining together maneuvers so you don't faceplant into a wall and discovering shortcuts across the map.

Quake doesn't have sprint and a lot of those kinds of maneuvers are straight out of shooters like that. Quake players basically invented the wall-run and dive rolling was pretty common in UT99 IIRC too

That description is literally what playing old school arena shooters is like

I find PVP games inherently toxic and have better things to do with my life.
