Paladins vs Planetside 2
Paladins
Paladins is a breakout MMO hero shooter game that offers a smooth mix of objective-based matches and arcade-styled, first-person shooting. In addition to an amazing lineup of champions of varying skills and abilities to play as, the game also incorporates a unique card-based loadout system where you'll need to adapt to the random cards that you get as you play. The matches themselves are team-oriented and fast-paced as well. Best yet, the game is going to launch its new battle royale game mode soon, which guarantees to put a twist to the conventional genre.Paladins: Champions of the Realm is a great alternative to games like Team Fortress 2, Dirty Bomb and Overwatch. Both competitive and casual players will definitely enjoy this game!
Planetside 2
Planetside 2 is a sci-fi-themed MMOFPS game that's the explosive sequel to its predecessor, Planetside, which was released back in 2003. In a way, the game is more inclined towards the extravagant and yet is still rather down-to-earth mainly because it features massive battlefields where hundreds to even thousands of players can battle it out for their faction. In fact, the game has an exciting gameplay which may bring to mind the games in the Battlefield franchise albeit the futuristic sort.Not to mention, Planetside 2 has an actual war playing out on the map where players who won a certain battlefield will essentially "claim" the land for their faction. The tug-of-war-like power struggle between factions help to bond the players in a way that resembles the deep rift between the Alliance and the Horde in World of Warcraft. The game is also developed by Daybreak Games which is in pretty good company along the likes of EverQuest 2, DC Universe Online and Lord of the Rings Online.
So, if you're looking for an epic MMOFPS game to fully immerse yourself in, then Planetside 2 is your best bet. If not, there are plenty of other casual shooters out there, but you can definitely expect that none of them can measure up to the faction-vs-faction tension, which usually erupts into another battle, offered in this game.
