    Yeah but just looking at multiplayer experience alone, Battlefield 3 is hands down one of the best. And trust me I hate origin as much as anyone else haha but Bf3 is way too good to leave untouched.

    Also, counter strike source is a great multiplayer game, mostly because of the mods. ZombieMod and ZombieEscape are two of my favorites.

    If you like MOBAs, I'm always glad to get people to try out Stellar Impact. Here's a thread. about it that I made. Essentially, it's a MOBA in space. Instead of Slark, Omniknight, Crystal Maiden, or Alchemist, you get to be a corvette or a cruiser or a frigate or a dreadnought.

    Coincidentally, I got a person I met on DotA 2 to try out Stellar Impact, and since I sort of the basics of DotA I was able to explain the game in DotA terms. E.g. "Priority target is Track and Amplify Damage rolled into one," "Dreadnought is a hard carry," etcetera.

    Servers are located in France. I live in California USA and I don't usually have any issues with lag.

    On top of that, if I can get a promise that you'll at least play for a couple of hours and learn the game (it has a pretty high learning curve), I can gift the game to you on Steam.

    DayZ mod was insanely fun and refreshing back in april or may last year, started when there was less than 10 servers, not sure how it is now though, after clocking around 800 hours with my clan buddies the hacking ended up being so bad it killed it for me, bloody kids no respect for anything these days...

    Otherwise Planetside 2 is really fun and it is free, not playing any more at the moment because they keep on nerfing or buffing things left and right but will be playing again when they finally implement the handfull of features most of us have been asking for for months .
