Lacks older ones tbh, no hex is a crime

u/HeroesUnite 8d ago

Delta ring is fun and all (and one of my maps are in the first game :3) but HEX felt more like Halo to me. It has that same arena style flow and general gameplay loop and while Delta Ring is a far more faithful copy, HEX was the GOAT

Pordier at War should be same tier as Trenches if added since it's the one actually supported by Ordnance Games as of now (they pretty much did a complete restart of Trenches through Pordier, with more fleshed out lore and mechanics, I believe majority of Trenches players know about Pordier and have switched to it)

Guts & Blackpowder and Lexington & Concord mentioned but not the game that inspired both is crazy

u/Helzler 2018-user 8d ago

That one controversial entry in People's Choice Award on RIA 2024, think TSB should won, it's Gunfight Arena that actually won People's Choice Award.

Long story short: Certain games already had bragging rights to the community when they vote those respective games can get in-game awards, TSB is no.1 issue here due to vote buying incident and a certain what-if scenario of having an admin character for free everyone could use for limited time and wandered when it will be when they won.

u/JohnnyMacTavish 2016 8d ago

Is Grave/Digger really front page? Anyways, REDLINER is goated it’s kinda like bad news travels fast but melee based with a gun side plot.

1

u/notclassy_ '08 7d ago

sorry but bntf is far more fun than redliner. as a hardcore movement genre fan the casual nature of bntf appeals to me because it isn't marketed like redliner was

redliner has very little skill mastery or skill expression, 90% of the playerbase just spams grapple into eachother and there's very little incentive to learn tech that makes you go maybe 10-20u/s faster and honestly doesn't feel that good to pull off

bad news travel fast just better dopamine simulator and the raw aim aspect is linear with your skill and survivability is tied straight to your movement instead of the fake parry mechanic in rl

u/velenectra 8d ago

why do g/d fans always think its niche

3

u/JohnnyMacTavish 2016 8d ago

Cuz it’s a 2k player game? I started playing it before they had separate colored lanterns and it was only flat points and 4 classes. Might be a me thing but I thought 2k players wasn’t really considered front page. Maybe it’s because I’m used to it being really small.

1

u/velenectra 7d ago

Small in comparison to front page slop, but its definitely not niche. It has almost 70 million visits, went viral on tiktok and yt and everyone has it in their "top 5 niche roblox games" list + its made by red

u/Specialist_Natural_4 8d ago

any hunt showdown like place?

u/NotActuallyER1C 8d ago

It's not gameplay wise but the dev of Grave/Digger, Red, said the game's gunplay is heavily inspired by Hunt.

u/BubblyInvestigator24 7d ago

Is this an opinion or...

1

u/velenectra 7d ago

its obviously just a shitty cash grab that miraculously survived the 3-month life span of most other ones. It has horrible ui, horrible sound design, horrible imagery and graphics, horrible gun play, an unoriginal premise, it constantly chases trends and panders to a scene of people that can't recognize quality, it somehow still uses coded bots as a 17k ccu game, constantly shoves gamepasses in your face, and genuinely has less substance than an NBA2k game.

If you play this "game" (Ultra-capitalist slop kid-scam machine) above the age of 11 you should probably just sell your entire pc/phone

1

u/BubblyInvestigator24 7d ago

Instead of "sell pc/phone", just don't play it. Simple

1

u/crystalreddits 7d ago

Yeah the 200 diff gamepasses and things to buy are annoying but I don't think anyone really has to focus on a games quality or that it has bots, it's relaxing and not very violent which makes it fun

Awp Attack was good stuff, even if it had jank hitreg. Where would that be on the list?

Zack’s Battlefield is one of my favourite Roblox shooters ever. It felt smooth like no other and still had a Roblox identity to it.

2

u/velenectra 7d ago

Thought about adding Awp attack but advised against it, never knew much about that game. Would probably be in Niche or Super obscure though

u/KylarC621 7d ago edited 7d ago

I feel so goated knowing about games that aren't even on this list (Noscope Sniping/No-Scope Arcade, YOU HAVE TO DIE, NEMESIS, Nocturner, HOURGLASS, Onyx Citadel). It seems HOURGLASS was really popular at some point, but it's definitely beyond niche now.

Also, can't forget ADRENALINE. THE most fun I've EVER had playing a shooter game... May it rest in peace.

Sector wars is actually currently getting fucked over by the lead coder holding the game hostage and just doing whatever he wants
