Far Cry and Battlefield are the games that got me completely involved! Battlefield was the first game that I played which gave you so much freedom to be anywhere in the map. And then there is that UT mode (Onslaught) which was a bit like Battlefield.
If you really want big, large and extensive outdoor maps opt for AOE-2, AOM, RON . You will get a "new" outdoor map everytime you start a Custom Match.
And yeah , I hate FPS :bleh:.
RTS is the way to go , hyeah:
