Poll: Your Main Weapon

[Bassman_2]

When playing games that allow for multiple types of weapons, which do you prefer to carry around most of the time whether you do battle or not - melee, automatic, pistol, shotgun, special weapon/device, super weapon?

This is the kind of weapon you would default to after you finish a fight that uses a different weapon.

Like no matter what game I play, Bioshock or Half-Life 2, I would always be carrying my wrench/crowbar and switch whenever needed.

And maybe also discuss any deaths when you did not have your superawesome gun in your grip.

EDIT: Superweapon means the BFG and whatever special weapon they give you that is the most powerful (at the cost of low ammo and/or destruction to environment)

 

[Merteg]

I use machine guns.

 

[JRCB]

I use assault rifles of any sort. I prefer their range, accuracy, and firepower.

 

[The87Italians]

My shotgun is my weapon. I use it to kill things.

 

[Radeonx]

Silenced pistols, daggers, silenced SMG's, or snipers. I prefer the stealthy type.

 

[Kenjitsuka]

Where's Sniper in the poll?
I want to look my enemy square in the eye before I pop their heads, without them ever knowing it!

 

[Spygon]

i amazing at stealth so there nothing like sneaking round everybody and then quickly killing them one by one with a blade while the rest of the enemy team panic as they dont what has happened.

 

[are.you.the.god.its.me.vader]

My thrusting manhood.

or a pistol......

 

[ljd184]

no sniper rifles if that was there i will vote that

 

[walls of cetepedes]

The most common would be SMGs for me, but I dabble in snipers and handguns, if there is a decent one. Nothing beats offing people with a magnum.

[Mcface]

I use machine guns.

By machine guns you mean LMG right? Like, M60, M90, PKM, RPK?

As for me, if its available, I will almost always use an AK-47 or variant of it. If not, SVD Dragonov is my second choice.

 

[aakibar]

I like fire.....

 

[Lazy Kitty]

Super weapon as in Death Star?

 

[wordsmith]

My chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... My two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... My *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... My *four*...no... *Amongst* my weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise....


I'll come in again.

 

[fenrizz]

Melee or pistol.
I like to preserve ammo for my good weapons for when I need it.

Doesn't matter, if it fires fast I want it.

HMG, LMG, MG, SMG, I don't care.

 

[Neotericity]

Assault Rifles for their durability and ability to be used in any situation

 

[TaborMallory]

Heh... Whoever chose Pistol for any reason other than stealth and/or portability is funny.

My personal choice would be a sniper rifle. I've never been in a war, nor have I shot an actual sniper rifle (the closest thing I've shot is a semi-auto ak-47), but in games, a sniper has never let me down. In games like Halo where aiming down the sights isn't a mechanic in the game, a sniper in my hands is just as deadly as a shotgun in close-quarter combat.
And of course, the long distance death-dealing is fun too.

For shear awesomeness, duel wielding my dad's two .44 caliber pistols is nothing short of amazing. Yep, I tried it once.
Who here can say they shot two .44 caliber pistols at the same time?
