Special Ops: GO

Rushing the enemy line with an assault rifle, digging in with a heavy machine gun, or picking off targets from range - Special Ops: GO hands you all three playstyles and lets you decide who you are this round.

This is a tactical FPS built for people who grew up on the classic shooters but don't want to install anything. It runs straight in your browser, free, with modern graphics and smooth performance packed into competitive multiplayer PvP. If you've been searching for a special ops online game you can just click and play, this is it.

It's already clocked 58 plays here on MultiPixel, and it fits right alongside the site's other trigger-happy picks. If you want a squad-based alternative, Hazmob FPS: Online Shooter scratches a similar itch, or try Zombie Survival Shooter when you want your enemies a little less human.

Filed under Action games and tagged among our Skills games, Special Ops: GO rewards players who actually aim instead of spraying and praying. Pick your rifle, pick your lane, and see how long you last.

Take out the enemy team before they take you out, using whichever weapon class suits your playstyle. Choose to push forward with an assault rifle, anchor a chokepoint with a heavy machine gun, or hang back and snipe from a distance.

Movement and shooting run through standard FPS controls in your browser - move, aim, fire, and switch position as the fight develops. No install needed, it loads and plays instantly.

Tip: pick your role before the round starts. Rushing works if you're aggressive, but holding a chokepoint keeps you alive longer while you learn the map.
