Is there any shooter that meets those criteria?

  • Enemies are just soldiers/rebels/gang members/humans?
  • Somewhat longer TTK
  • Ideally some deep gunplay like Planetside 2 (recoil patterns, bullet travel, CoF, etc)
  • Ideally some rng or replay value (roguelite, random encounters, etc.)
  • Not online only

I just want to launch a game and fight after work, master guns and ideally unlock shit if that’s not asking for too much. I used to get that in Planetside 2, but in my timezone, it’s not an option and I’m offline a lot. Closest I found is:

  • F.E.A.R. (replayed the story over and over, but the guns feel pretty bad compared to modern games)
  • Robocop (LOVE the gunplay and locational damage, but the downtime is killing me at this point)
  • Brink (best example I guess…)
  • Blacklight Retribution against bots
  • Some CoD games like BO2
  • Maximum Action
  • Shadow Warrior 2 (some maps have a handful of humans but it’s mainly monsters)
  • RoboQuest (my main squeeze atm, but it’s robots without blood)
  • Rico
  • RS Siege Terrorist Hunt
  • Payday 2 (IF it was possible to have longer ttk and much fewer cops)
  • CS & Insurgency with bots (but low ttk is kind of boring to me)

Thanks!

    I would say Division 2 But that is online only, stupid Ubisoft.
    Another option would be Escape from Tarkov while using the Fika PvE mod.

      Tarkov now comes with PvE mode. But if you don’t feel like paying extra there’s SPT (single player Tarkov) with a wide range of mods. Fika is now used only to turn SPT into coop Tarkov (and Fika isn’t officially supported by SPT devs).

          I think you played the “offline” mode which doesn’t keep any progress. That is not the PvE mode. I haven’t played official PvE because I’ve jumped to Linux and the anticheat kinda kills the possibility of playing EFT. In PvE most maps are run locally so I could play most of the game in PVE but Streets of Tarkov still boots up a BSG server and I imagine anticheat kicks you out of the server which means I can’t play all of Tarkov. Also PvE cost extra money and I see no reason to pay when SPT is arguably the better PVE experience.

          That said I’ve heard good stuff about the official PvE. For many people it’s the de facto way to play Tarkov because no cheaters. But I swear by SPT because SPT mods let you customize Tarkov to your liking. Don’t like the AI? There’s SAIN to replace the AI logic. Want more realistic night vision? There’s a mod for that. Don’t like how some of the weapon sights are fucked up by BSG? There’s a mod to fix sights. Want to turn Tarkov into a rogue-lite? There’s a mod for that. Don’t like getting lucky with keys? There’s mod that puts more keys in traders or a mod that let’s you shoot locks on locked door. Don’t like having to nudge your character into weird positions just to get the crosshair in the right position to loot something? There’s a mod for that. If there’s anything you want Tarkov to be it’s very likely there’s a SPT mod for it.
