Was coming seriously close to buying Black Ops this weekend because I’m missing a quick grindy “run and gun” FPS. Although I occasionally play Warzone (and enjoy it) with my BIL, I hate to give Activision Blizzard my money and try to avoid any of the skins, battle passes etc.

Looking for a good/fun multiplayer FPS, I’m curious what the community is playing.

I’m on PS5 and Steam Deck (Mac OS but no Windows) and I’ve taken a break from Helldivers 2 and been back into NMS. Intrigued by Apex Legends, The Finals looked cool but it doesn’t look like it’ll survive.

Deep Rock Galactic might scratch a grindy shooty itch.

I second Deep Rock. I’ve recently got back into Destiny 2, which could be an option too. But it’s also a lot more than a simple fps. Plus it’s infuriating and addictive.

I used to be a big Destiny 2 player, but my friends (UK) and I (US) could never line up timezones for raids etc. so I used to just solo patrols and got bored with the rarity grind. I did hear the last expansion was excellent but also fuck Bungie for greedy practices. I was excited for Marathon, but that’s dropped a little.

Thanks for the suggestion, I saw DRG pop up a bunch during the Helldivers 2 drama. Is it only PVE? I’ll have a look at it.

Yup PVE only. It can be as chill or as hectic as you want depending on the difficulty you choose. Lots of upgrades, 4 unique classes, plenty of mission types, good solo or team gameplay.
