First off Dynamic, I don't know what other term to use except for class based, but it'll do. Dynamic are games such as Halo: Reach, Halo 4, Call of Duty, or Battlefield.
Secondly, we have Arena-style games, this is like Quake, Halo 1, 2, and 3, or Unreal.
I've got to go with the Arena shooters, I like being set on the same ground as everyone else and your true skill (or rush to the weapons) will show.

1 ReplyI wouldn't really say Halo was ever a true arena game. "Normal" weapons, regenerative health, lower movement acceleration, etc. lean it more towards the modern style of shooter. The fact that the series was able to almost seamlessly transition into a fully modern style game with the addition of sprint and loadouts is strong evidence of this.
