Ignorance.
the amount of differences between different types of fighting games are IMMENSEwhereas the only differences between CoD, Halo, Battlefield, and TF2 that have been presented to me involve two things:1. setting2. speedthat's it
You're a Street Fighter fan, therefore you should like Tekken and Mortal Kombat too, going by your logic.

that you're logic is dumb
As someone who's played all of those shooters you mentioned, they all play and feel very different
Battlefield has vehicles, while CoD doesn't, for example. CoD has killstreaks, Battlefield doesn't. Battlefield has classes each with differing abilities, CoD doesn't. Battlefield maps are huge and the games tend to be long and more slowly paced, while CoD has much smaller maps with shorter, more hectic games.
They both play very differently, you simplified it down to "You have a gun and shoot people", of course they're going to sound the same when you put it like that
Can we all agree that military FPS's are so saturated on the market now? I'm surprised there isn't as much fatigue with it as there should be.
"two people fight each other" is NOT a good definition of a fighting game"people shooting each other" is a good definition of a FPS/TPS game

Just because all games differ in map size and pacing doesn't make it not a difference, fighting games seem to have similar map sizes, should I count that as evidence towards them being the same?
Classes are a huge difference, are you really telling me that you see no difference in the class and teamwork based gameplay of Team Fortress 2 compared to CoD?
There are definitely CoD/Battlefield/Team Fortress clones out there trying to cash in on the popularity of those games, but none of the games you mentioned are alike

whereas i can't think of a single big fighting game that doesn't have a distinction that truly sets it apart from everything else

Stupid.Yeah that's true, they all do feel the same at the very end of the day. Very few really feel different.And hey, leave FIFA alone.
that doesn't explain what's so bad about CoD, thoughi mean, i know what's wrong with CoD--it's an FPSbut uh
Just because you hate FPS's doesn't mean they are all the same. Battlefield is a strategic game centered on teamplay and objectives. CoD focuses on deathmatch. The list goes on and on.
I would think a game like Doom would be different then say, Red Orchestra. Just because they're both FPS's doesn't mean they're the same. Too many variables.That's like saying all fighting games are the same. Over simplifying is doing it injustice if you ask me.

Over simplifying is doing it injustice if you ask me.you could argue that all fighting games are the same, and i wouldn't really have much of a problem with itwhat i'm saying, though, is that fighting games, even though they're pretty same-y, have a much higher level of diversity than FPS games do
