Poll: Attack or Defense?

[Calatar]

My RTS strategery:
1: Make small army, use to raid and annoy, avoid too much confrontation
2: Make heavy fortifications
3: Make big army, place in heavy fortifications
4: Use small army to lure enemy into attacking heavy fortifications
5: Destroy enemy army with defensive circumstances on your side
6: Send EVERYONE to enemy base for massive counterstrike!
7: Stay on the offensive until the end of the game!

My FPS strategery:
1: Shoot at people
2: Get shot
3: Repeat

Guess which type of game is my strong-suit?

Defense, to the point that I acually wrote tactics for our HALO day for defense in assult.

oh and it was during test-time. i got an g-.

 

[Haunted Serenity]

A good defense is a devasting Attack. Pre-emptive strikes and Ambushes are my speciality which take the fight to them. If forced to defend i use scorched earth policy which sets the enemy up for the pain of over extended supply lines.

Never get into a land war in asia. Or a contest with a sicillian when death is on the line.

Defense.

In Age of Empires 2, the game that introduced me to RTS, I always loved the Byzantine Empire, because they had stronger walls and towers and several upgrades to help a defensive strategy. (actually if you look at a tech tree for that game, they have the most upgrades and techs and such available out of any civilization.)

I would hoard massive stockpiles of supplies, wage a minimal cost war and let my foes exhaust themselves, then strike LIKE A BOSS!!!!

Can I has cheeze burga If izs know dat movie?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

 

[Jedoro]

Can't beat a stable firing position, which is better attained when on the defense.

 

[siffty]

hmmm CATS ALL YOUR BASSES ARE BELONG TO US sooo attack

 

[TheSeventhLoneWolf]

Both. As a tf2 medic you have to babysit anyone who has no idea what an explosive looks like.

I prefer attacking. It's more fun and I get to rally the troops to co ordinate attacks.

 

[NuclearPenguin]

I cant attack.
I dont have the balls for it
I sent my troops, when theyre half way I recall them.
So I just stand in my base waiting for my teammates to rape them.

 

[Cyberjester]

I'm a mix, more towards the defense. If it's a base building game, it will be defense, but with constant attacks, more to irritate human opponents and to kill villagers or the equivalent. But I rarely stick with a plan and have a habit of going from complete defense in an RTS to mass suicide rush with every unit capable of attacking.

Shooters are kinda defensive... I'm the person who likes 1 shot instead of 30 so I go slow and try to kill with as little effort as possible. Unless it's TF2, in which case pryo and flame everything. Or sniper, but I haven't yet perfected the close range headshot.

RPGs are more defensive since I hate having a char die. Possibly why I usually go for the mage types, any class where you can kill before the enemy gets in range is a good one.

Good call Razavan

 

[SulfuricDonut]

both? I defend the guys on my team who are attacking through various support tactics, while never actually attacking myself unless my team is garbage.

 

[bcponpcp27]

KEKEKEKEKEKE

I must rush like a bat out of hell to have true fun. If I'm on try hard mode, I'll play defensive, but I get bored of it and start rushing like a madman again.

 

[T3h Merc]

Defense. What? I'm not courageous. I'm not going to charge into a hail of lead and/or zombies because it should be done, I'm the guy watching from a football field away with a highpowered weapon. But I do like stealth and subterfuge. Mmmmm Subterfuge.

 

[orangebandguy]

In TF2 Defending is piss easy. RED team have it made.

 

[wizzerd229]

My play style is defense is the best offense, and stealth

 

[link141]

Depends

 

[Aur0ra145]

When in doubt, ATTACK!

 

[Traun]

Offense...my strategy is to overwhelm my opponent resource wise. Disarm him and then kill him. If I do not harass and annoy my opponent enough he may be able to muster forces capable of slowing down my expansion.

 

[Shock and Awe]

Defend, and then counter attack!
