True story: When I was 10 my then 14 year old brother was disturbed enough to lock me out of my father's computer and thus away from Doom for 2 weeks when - trying to impress him - I said, "Shotguns are cool." Yeah, that backfired. And while I do like shotguns it's not my favourite weapon. (Close range favourite though.)Grouchy Imp said:Shotgun.
Always the shotgun.

Long distance head-shots are fine too, and I like having a medium range semi auto rifle to back up my shotty, but I'm just not that good as a sniper. I can pick up and identify targets fine, but it takes me a little while to draw a bead, by which time they've usually found cover. I try to exploit the 0.25 second "oh shit he's right there!" delay that is a lot of peoples' response to CQB tactics in shooters.trollnystan said:True story: When I was 10 my then 14 year old brother was disturbed enough to lock me out of my father's computer and thus away from Doom for 2 weeks when - trying to impress him - I said, "Shotguns are cool."

Truth is, I'm more of a sniper. I love to find myself a spot with birds-eye view of the playing field and just deliver head shots. Boo-yah.
(You'd think reading this that I'd play a lot of FPS. I never do.)
