[bezza...]

hi

 

im a bit fed up with all the games that i play becasue i am always a one man army. i am looking for a game where i am one of many soldiers. i  dont mind what era. most games that try this end up with me killing 95% of the enemys and the team mates being moree of a hazerd.

 

preferably single player

Clive Barker's Jericho.  Not very new, but you are one of 7(?) constant characters.  I REALLY liked it.  And, it is all the era's because it involves time travel.

Arma 3, but be warned - the learning curve on this one isn't really a curve... it's vertical line. Also, you might want to add a 2nd keyboard. It's one of those games that if you setup your crew right, you can finish a mission w/o firing a single shot and your teammates doing all the work for you.

If you don't like scary games, certainly stay away from it.  I think  lot of the negative reviews were from people who played the game an harder modes where your team was easily picked off.  I do remember getting sick of resurrecting the other 5 teammates multiple times per level.

How intensive is the game? I'm running on a 5600g. Also how long do u think it takes to start to get into the game?

[QuantumSingularity]

It's from 2013 so it shouldn't be a problem to run it with any PC from the last 5 years. As for the time to get into the game, once you pass the unskippable training it's pretty good actually and draws you in more and more and the most used commands become natural. The training is really annoying, but you have to take it, otherwise it's impossible to play the game. It's not your average CoD shooter where you grab your weapon and go in guns blazing. If you reload and your mag still had bullets in it, you lose them. You have limited inventory. It's basically like Diablo 2 meats Project IGI and Medal of Honor. It's open world, so that will make you explore even more, cause it is nice roaming around. I'd say all'n'all about 4-6 hours till you get a solid grip on the game to the point where you start understanding what you are doing.

So games were you aren't a soldier are out of the question?

hmm, i see, what about rpg style games? I never really have the feeling im doing everything alone in those ,usually its a party of 2-5 and everyone is kinda important. 

Basically rpg could be classic rpg or action rpg (with real time combat)

 

and then some of my favorite games are action oriented, but you don't really kill anyone. idk if your interested in any of the above i could recommend some games for sure.

thank you in advanse.

Ever try Prey kinda a fun game that is easy to overlook but its pretty decent with the immersion something nice to put your teeth in if you liked fallout games. I would warn there is a VERY slight scifi horror element. But otherwise pretty good and fun kinda space 1st person adventure sim.

no killing whatsoever,  fun game that doesn't take itself too seriously,  heavily depends on your choices and is still an "action game".

 

you kill ghosts (as far as that's possible)  one of the most unique series on any platform.

 

classic "action rpg"

 

 

i would also recommend something like Nier, Drakengard (series) and Shadow of the colossus but im not sure those are an pc (but there's always emulation) 

 

idk if any of those are your thing but in neither of them you feel like a "one man army", and you also don't necessarily kill (people) maybe except Nier Automata since your a miltiary grade robot (android) but it feels like you rely on others often, anyways .

Uhh.. Star Wars Republic Commando.

 

3 AI will tag along with you and you give them orders.

I love this game. The AI feel life like with their dialog, it make you feel like you're not alone.
