Most realistic FPS?

[Chilaha]

Hey all,
Just wondering what is the most realistic FPS out there to date?
I've seen some good sims and this is the list I have narrowed it down to:
Arma II
Operation Flahspoint: Red River
Americas Army

Which is the best representation of combat and the real Army experience?

Have you played the new Battlefield (Battlefield 3)? Very realistic...there is even suppression affect when under fire. Check it out!

I haven't played america's army for about 4 years or so, have they upgraded the graphics?

As for realistic, graphical wise I was very fond of MAG.

Also Amber you should get BF3, do you play on PC?

Yeah, I play on the pc. Need to get a new graphics card, was stuttering hard on ultra high in fallout new vegas. It's a shame too because I love that game.

I think most modern FPSs are realistic...but none of them are 100% accurate. The closest one, I think, is Amrica's Army. Haven't played it much, but the mechanics and overall atmosphere are close to what I imagine would be a "real combat simulator". Not a fan of all these CoDs and Battlefields...

 

[Chilaha]

Me too, COD is very repetitive and has been the same game for years. Battlefield is OK, but I have to admit 3 is quite a step up.

You know what they say about great minds thinking alike...that may not be true, but they do play BF3!

I cannot say this loud enough: Crysis

It was actually rewarded for being the most graphically intense game, and was the reason I built this current PC. There is no other FPS, or any game period, that comes up to par with Crysis.

Warning: It's an FPS, so it is graphic. Not sure if I'm not supposed to post it here? Sorry, if so.

Crysis max settings 1920x1080 8xAA - YouTube

It really depends... Halo Reach is a sci fi shooter with a good physics engine. Anyhow... realistic shooters, there are two MW3 and BF3. MW3 is individual skilled based so you can go rambo(if you can) and be good at the game. BF3 physics engine is really good. It's also team based and you HAVE to act more like the military in order to win. It really depends on what you like.

Define realistic. Visually? Mechanically? What?

Probably MAG then from what I saw in it besides the spraying entire groups and getting mad points for rezzes.

I bought Medal of Honor... my vote for most realistic game I have ever played. Except you can't go prone in online! You can in single player but not online..? Still a realistic game though.
BF3, the physics are realistic but a lot of the weapons can get a bit unrealistic.

Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45

Battlefield 3

Definitely Halo...

Depends on what you mean by realistic. Crysis is realistic in terms of graphics and physics. Battlefield 3 is realistic in terms of openness and fighting. Americas Army is real in terms of how a gun battle would work (wounds, bleeding out, sloe movement when shot in leg...etc). Theres an older game named Soldier Of Fortune, in it its hit system was realistic and what happened when you got hit. If you sliced at someones stomach, their guts would hang out. If you shot them in the hand, their hand blew off. If you shot then in the upper right of the head there would be a wound but the back of their head would be blow out. So thats also realistic.

Now if you combine all three you would get a realistic game. However it still would not be real life though. Games have a long way to go to convey pure realism to the point of if you were shown a video you couldn't tell it was a game.
