Any recommendations for the genre? Most games are just way too slow nowadays.

Unironically Splatoon 3. It's so fun once you master the motion-controlled aiming and Squid Rolls and all that. Clam Blitz especially is the most fun I've had in any multiplayer game in years and really scratches that old UT2004 Bombing Run / Tribes / TF2 itch: https://old.reddit.com/r/splatoon/comments/13eslyb/at_the_bu...

Tactical-Ops: Assault on Terror was very good. However, Urban Terror was good replacement, when it was alive.

Is it slow, or truly dead?

Urban Terror's death has been exaggerated before =]

Urban Terror in Fedora cannot be ran, unless symlink from /usr/share/ to user /home/ is made. When I ran it anyway, I saw zero users at all servers and maps, including Eagle.

There isn't. It's a genre that's pretty much dead.

Titanfall 2 is really good.

Quake Champions is the best I've found.

Quake Live, Quake Champions both have some activity. I don't think either has the numbers for big onslaught maps like the good old days.
