A modern title under developement can be tried for free here (Beta):

It reminds of the map view in SBP.

Whatever you do, DO NOT under any circumstances buy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2!!!

Too many cheaters, too many 13 year olds who think they know everything and a lot of whiny 30-year old armchair commandos.

I've got myself into Operation Flashpoint: Red Storm Rising; pretty realistic and entertaining too.

The title R.U.S.E. looks promising. Although I have zero facts on game play.

Dont even know if its multiplayer or not. First I heard of it was in a thread about a SH5 video and it just happened to be in there.

Moved to the general games section

I'd have to recommend Conquest of the Aegean (And it's predecessor, Highway to the Reich. Probably the coming sequel too) as well.

HoI2 and HoI3 are great games (Well, 3 is a good game that will become great in a patch or 2), but they are not the same type of games and so can't be compared.

Don't bother looking forward to R.U.S.E., I played the beta and they managed to take a decent concept and ruin it beyond belief.

I already got through these stuff in Modern Warfare.
At first it was nice, more teamwork, tactics and stuff.
Now, its all rush, kamikazis and random grenades. I hated it and given that i was my clan's 2nd sniper, i quitted. I already play UT2004 when i need something fast, thanks. :damn::stare:

PS And something else: Any good sniping shooter? I finished sniper elite already and i really enjoyed it. Red Orchestra is one of my favs for sniping due to its realistic features and huge ranges.

Oh, and Thanks for all the replies so far. :salute:

Although I haven't played it, it looks like ARMA and ARMA 2 might be a good game to snipe in just because the map is so huge.

It is(talking of Arma2), with a few mods:

• ACE - Among other things sight-adjustment for sniper rifles, wind affects bullets(and makes long-range sniping extremely challenging), scope-reticles that are in scale
• ACEX - More rifles like Tac-50, M109 AMPR, M110 etc...
• Aiaktalik - An open desertish map which allows sniping distances up to several kilometers.
• fnc_scopes - A bit of self-advertisement here :) A pack of reticle-textures made by me, and imho slightly superior to those of ACE. V 1.3 is soon out which brings updated textures to all optics in the game, and as usual everything is in scale so mildot-rangefinding works like a dream.

What do you mean by sight adjustments?
Can you actually adjust the sight for range and all that, or do you just mean the sights are adjusted better in ACE than in Vanilla? :hmmm:

I mean being able to adjust the sights for elevation and windage. That isn't possible in the stock game.

Ahh...a man after my own heart. :salute:

Too many people dismiss Chess as little more than a speed bump to bigger games. They don't know what they are missing. I started out as a grog and gave most of it up for Chess. I found all the deep strategy and tactics that had attracted me to other wargames but without the 90-page rule book. :DL Even better, I never had to go hunting for an opponent.

I recommend Chess.com. It is becoming the premier Chess hang-out on the net. Free accounts are available, too.

Not so! REAL wargames are played on a large table covered with green felt, cardboard buildings, lichen for trees, lots of miniature soldiers/tanks/ships/etc. and stacks of combat charts and rules.

:03:

Excuse me a moment. I gotta consult the shock attack table. ;)
