Massively multiplayer online first-person shooter

A massively multiplayer online first-person shooter (MMOFPS) is an online game which mixes the genres of first-person shooter and massively multiplayer online game. A MMOFPS is a real-time shooter experience where a very large number of players simultaneously interact with one another in a virtual world. These games provide large-scale, sometimes team-based combat.

However, due to the inherent fast-paced, strategic nature of this genre, players must rely on their physical coordination and cognition, as well as teamwork and coordination with other players. Thus, there is an emphasis towards player skill rather than player statistics, as no number of in-game bonuses, or similar, will compensate for a player's inability to aim and think tactically.
