https://i.imgur.com/KZ9akWD.png Throw everything you know about Roblox out the window. Phantom Forces is a fully fledged Modern Military Shooter à la Call of Duty or Battlefield, built from the ground-up in Roblox. It plays good. It FEELS good. The maps are shit but who cares? THE GUNS ARE THE STAR OF THE SHOW! https://my.mixtape.moe/umgwah.webm How did they manage it? Black Magic, probably (or a blood pact with Satan). FEATURES More guns than you can shake a stick at (seriously, the guns are the main reason to play); Actual bullet projectiles, with velocity, drop and penetration statistics unique to each gun; EXTREMELY shit maps, complete with spawn camping; In-depth weapon customization; Crisp character hitboxes and weapon sights; 3 gamemodes (TDM, Domination and Headquarters); Cosmetic-only lootboxes with keys, both given out generously (with a metric-ton of really, REALLY gaudy skins); In-game currency to unlock guns and attachments early or purchase more lootboxes; Grenade spam; Netcode made out of strings and ducktape; Very smooth movement system, complete with vaulting, drop-shotting and crouch-sliding; Skill-based weapon handling including accurate aiming down sights, heavy recoil and inaccurate hipfiring; No matchmaking to speak of, prepare to mercilessly stomp kids in the pavement. HOW TO PLAY Either log in to your Roblox Account or make a new one on the main website. Then just go on the Phantom Forces game mode below page and hit "Play". https://www.roblox.com/games/292439477/ACOG-Patch-Phantom-Forces#!/about
this was my guilty pleasure at one point, didn't expect such amount of polish and solid gunplay in roblox
I keep coming back to it, trying out different guns in different configurations is just a delight.
this is fucking roblox? what? how? why?
that's the million-dollar question right there
Just played for an hour, the maps really are terrible, the netcode is jank and there's literally no matchmaking balance (but it is fun to just easily do 5+ kills per life because most kids feel like fodder bots) but damn the gunplay really does feel good. It's just really annoying to get a map that heavily favors snipers and either you or your team just steamrolls the other since there's literally no reason to not just group up and snipe on choke points.
you summed it up pretty well whoever's in charge of weapon design deserves a promotion whoever's in charge of map design deserves to be shot
I used to play this a ton. It’s acually pretty impressive for a ROBLOX game. just be careful when prone near walls or on floors with a room below them. Your limbs often glitch through and you can be killed in them. theres a few guns that are really strong with some parts on them, but other than that you pretty much can hold your own with any gun. I use the MK11 and it’s pretty good.
Not just that, you can quite literally be wallbanged since there's actual bullet penetration in the game.
I'm genuinely hoping they get a better map designer for this and rework most if not every single map, this is impressively fun and just feels good to play, and puts to shame to a lot of similar f2p titles on Steam in terms of progression and gunplay. I might have been just lucky, but I have to say I'm surprised how mostly composed the community is. I mean I already encountered my fair share of salty kids but for the most part most seems pretty chill or just quiet, and every match ends with a well-mannered gg.
It's cool because there's an entire system for how thick a wall is before certain guns can't penetrate. There's a few spots you can't shoot through but are common laying spots so there's always legs and arms sticking out just waiting to be shot.
Netcode feels better than most source engine games in my experience. This game is much too good. Apparently the creators of it have made so much money from kids spending robux on it that the game has put them all through college. Heard that from my friend who still actively makes stuff on Roblox without a source, but they deserve it if it's true.
You should see all the sniping clans. they get really fucking salty lmao. The one thign that does get me salty in this game is the BFG, (highest damage sniper) and how you can get the attachment that literally does a sort of spotting on enemies near your corsshair, and gives a diamond you shoot at for a headshot
That sounds like a nightmare, can imagine King of the Hill games literally being one-sided whoever captures it first and sets up a camping position lol
If you have any modicum of ability to aim in for games you will dominate. Doesn't matter if they're pro snipers or not, they're mostly incompetent kids. Also I want to point out that the game has the +1 in the chamber mechanic just like irl and the bullets actually come out of the tip of the gun, AND are actually projectiles. Way more realistic than most fps games I've played recently and I love it.
I remember playing this a while back! Surprised it's still alive and kicking despite most front page games on Roblox dying after a few weeks. It's really neat to see what you can do with roblox if you have the skill and time to burn on it.
Can we get a facepunch discord for this? I'd love to have the ability to get a group going and dominate kids on demand with facepunch buddies.
I have a small desire to try this out of curiosity, but I don't wanna get caught playing Roblox by my brother I would also actually feel bad for ruining the fun of the oblivious kids playing this.
Guess this is a proof of monkeys on a typewriter principle. 12 year old children writing broken gibberish in a game editor for I cant remember how many years. It's been a slow progression, evolution of society and technology sort of. In the beginning was only building and basic bashing bricks together and some shitty paintball guns and rocket launchers maybe. Then planes came,, at first extremely primitive, like the cars you have to press buttons inside the plane to steer it. Then there are years I call the golden age of ROBLOX where every single place is a perfect mix of unique and terrible, I remember the Survival places, like Survival 101-303 and how much I loved raiding, pillaging and stealing from other survivors. My first online survival game douchebag moment. At some point in the future some fat neckbeard that started out playing this game as a slender mildly geeky boy looking for a free game can finally assume complete control and sensation of the 13 year old lego girl he has been pretending to be for ages, and my old astonaut outfit, blocky as ever character will lie forever in its slumber, password forgotten, still with all the items, gear and clothes I toiled hard for, as my nan never let me have builders club or a credit card.
You're really doing yourself a disservice not trying it out. I'm literally having more fun playing this than any other shooter in the past few years. Are you okay dude? Are you having a stroke?
I'm not sure what most of this means, however you have a point with the progression of roblox. used to be a ton of fun little games and then they introduced in-game robux purchases so now every game has skins and lootboxes for shitty eyesore skins if someone makes a discord i'll gladly join.
But the people who made it are like 18+? If you make a successful game on roblox, you make fat dosh.
only problem is there's no way to guarantee being on the same team, I think autobalance is completely random
oh shit... I never thought someone would make a thread for this. my username is SmellyHippie187, feel free to add me. I'm currently trying to get every gun to 2000 kills so I can get to level 200 faster.
Makes combat more fun then. And i'm pretty sure there's a team swap command. Can you throw the discord link in the OP?
Sure, as soon as I get home.
thanks fam
there is only a team switch command available in vip servers, they cost 210 robux per month.

Does anyone know how to get VR to work for phantom forces? It looks so damn fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKx_dH4Hqzs
