Flanker, with a little ambusher in me, I place claymores etc strategically so I won't get flanked myself.
I lurv hunting down people with Ninja Pro and a silenced weapon and some throwing knives. >:D

EDIT: I've also got a bit of a rusher in me and I rarely lose a direct firefight since I'm good at taking cover and always has a strategy for wherever I am.
Yes. I am paranoid while gaming.

I try to play tactically when I'm playing FPS's, but that usually results in me Rushing... That may explain why I suck at them...

Cautious lurker. I am opportunistic and never out right engage my prey. I hold back and wait for my other team mates to distract the enemy while I flank them and pick them off from a long distance using semi automatic weaponry. When in close quarters I use deception to lure the enemy into a false sense of advantage and make them pay dearly.

Flanker crossed with Camper. Favorite tact. is to find somewhere nice to hang out near an enemy stronghold and ambush them from behind. Good to do with heavy weapons.

i think i'm a hybrid between a sniper and a flanker (and possibly a new " omg i just wanna stay on my side of the map" class :p ). thats probably what i would be, IF I WAS ABLE TO ACTUALLY PLAY MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! each time I try to go to mw2 multiplayer, the damn thing freezes and and I have to Ctrl-Alt-Delete, so I can only play single-player. (by the way, I have mw2 for pc)

I think a mix of flanker and ambusher, I can't play either one the right way so I balance between the two.

im the guy that always gets killed by the sniper first even when im in a group of like 8 people. im the 1st one that runs into the room after someone used a flashbang because no else goes in. otherwise im more of a assault rifle type which i think is what gets me sniped 90% of the time. also its seems whenever i do good my team loses

I regret to admit that I'm a hybrid, although there are certain games where I play only as one type. In MW2 I tend to be a camper (sad to admit it, but it works because idiots are willing to go through the same door over and over again rather than throw a grenade in it first), but I also lay traps; so I'm a camper/ambusher. In Halo and Gears of War I'm a major flanker! I feel that MW2 is just too easy because the people that play it aren't really that intelligent. The Halo and Gears following are much more difficult to combat and I love the competition. Flanking is merely a strategy I prefer when it comes to more advanced FPS's.

I like to have many different play styles, so I guess a mixture of all of those.

Since I consider myself a Counter Strike player that's how I will explain what I do.

I'm none of those species and all of them. I'm primarily tactical and headphones are my best friend. I like a direct approach and rushing when I can do it. I use assault rifles mostly. I use my brain and I will try to flank enemies if I hear more of them coming, and if direct approach is suicide. I use snipers only on long range maps and only if I find one laying around. I never buy a sniper, a good placed shot from m4a1 or AK-47 from someone skilled enough is always better than a sniper rifle because snipers limit your movement and field of view. I only camp when I'm guarding the C4 and even then I move around the bomb site slowly, scouting the area and listening for footsteps, trying to determine the enemies exact location and their numbers.

If I feel like an evil little shit or it's deathmatch, I'll be kind of a roaming camper, sit in one spot with varying weapons and get a few kills, and find a new spot and get a few more.
'Tis not camping. Camping is when someone sits in the same spot and refuses to move until they're killed, and then goes back there when they respawn. What you're doing is just playing smart.

As for me, I think the only thing I won't do is snipe, because I suck at it. Although if I was, that would be sick. I'd make my gamertag Wesley Snipes and it'd be total beastliness. (my name is Wesley, haha funny joke.)

I'd say Rusher :) I like firepower. Also, a poll and some spellchecks wouldn't go amiss here :)
