I'm almost a little backwards in my decision.... Sure, I chose Marksman, but in the aspect of the stealth side of it....
Say, for example...
Shooting someone in a camp from about 3 miles away with a sniper is fun... But the more entertaining side of it, to me, is if said sniper was silenced.... Therefore I find it to be a challenge to take out as many guards as possible, before they found out something was killing them..... That, and, I figure I want as much distance as possible between me, and the things that want me dead....
Now, my point in how this is backwards, I know that this is a single-player question, and that's how I answered it.... I love standing back and being the subtle helper in a fight... Whereas, in a multi-player game I hate snipers to death, as if it spoils the concept of the game... (What that is, I don't know)
I guess it's because the essence of "camping" doesn't exist in SP, so you can sit there all day and just snipe people happy....
But other than that, I'm a marksman/stealth (if distance isn't an option)

Check out the badges dude.

Basically from the descriptions you've given I'd say a Marksman/Psycho cross. Long-range headshots and close-quarters blade kills, all the way.

I perefer explosives and heavy weapons(Rapid Damage output over Controlled target selection or Wide spread targeting.) for general use when I can but I know how to restrain myself when friendlies or sensitive targets or objectives are nearby in which case i switch over to Marksmen or Guns Blazing or any other type as the situation calls for.Which is a same I don't see many others like me who know how to put their firepower on hold during such occasions.
I'm an absolute bullet sponge. Give me a bigass weapon, give me something that explodes, give me a weapon that rips everything apart at close range, and I'm happy.
i sneak into position, kill as many as i can from that vantage point, mpty my weapon, go scavenge enemy weapons while continually firing then blowing up thw hole thing just to be sure
what do you call that?
stealthy-psycho-guns-blazing-marksman-demolitionist?

I think my style of playing games can best be summed up by a quote from Abraham Maslow. "I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail." I try to keep myself from falling into one particular style of play. To keep my options open, if the game allows for it, I make sure to have the tools I need for several of the styles of play.
Take my current New Vegas play-through for example.
In my pack, I carry:
A few Stealth Boys, which render invisible and greatly boosts my stealth skills, and a nice silent melee weapon for more covert operations.
A grenade launcher with plenty of ammo as well as frag grenades; you never know when you need to rend something's limbs from its torso in a massive explosion.
Landmines and C4 to set up traps; if the direct approach doesn't work, an ambush might.
A sniper rifle; why face something nasty up close when I can blow its head off from five-hundred yards?
And an assault rifle and a couple other weapons which are best up close and personal; sometimes personal combat is just unavoidable.
Sure, these choices do take up a bit more space, which requires my companions to carry more of the loot back to base. But, having several options to approach a situation makes my game a lot more enjoyable.
I find it very frustrating when I'm forced into a single tactic and it proves to be a poor choice for a certain situation.

I'm generally an ambusher.
I either sneak up on my enemies, or use my environment to give the an advantage as I take them out...OR, I play it safe at mid-range, supporting my team (if applicable), and then I pounce in for the close range kill the second I see a weakness in the enemy ranks.

Oh THAT level.melikeyshootey said:
I did that, but I put a turret at the top of the ladder. Watching him literally fly back across the map was damn hilarious!
It seems like in every game, particularly in Deus Ex and Fallout 3/NV. I tell myself "This time I'm going to do stealth, I'm going to sneak up and knife this guy". (20 minutes later) "F**K this" *pulls out Assault rifle*. I think its a default with my attention span.
i play half guns blazing half marksman with a little bit demolition. nothing in SINGLE PLAYER can stand before me. cause i haz a brain. and they don't. cause they're A.I. DERP!
