Multiplayer was an integral part of the FPS genre from its inception. As internet service and netcode improved, it was inevitable that we’d eventually get entire games designed around online play. Between 1998 and 1999, we finally saw it in the form of Starsiege: Tribes, Team Fortress, and Counter-Strike.
