The Pretentious One: Only plays Mirrors Edge and Bioshock.
Hahaha love this post.

OP: Ambusher/Flanker I would guess. In tf2, I usually play demoman and pyro.

All of the above, I usually take a shotgun and try to gun down people but if a medic is needed, I play medic. If we need a sniper I play sniper (rare that that's needed when I tend to run into TEAMS of them).

Camping? I guess you could say I "team camp" when our team is gathering I'll face the opposite way and wait for ambushers to come around and gun them down. But that's not really camping...more like lookout for a few minutes. Oh god I'm typing as I think...don't look at me!

I'd say i'm a hybrid of flanker, ambusher and camper. I like to run around the edge of the map to behind the enemy team, lay some explosives in a chokepoint then drawing the enemy into it either by killing enough of them from behind so that they chase me into it or (if i'm playing COD) firing an unsilenced weapon into the air so that they come to investigate, but hiding in a nearby bush with a shotgun, to clean up any people that are missed by the explosives.

P.s. If you do this though after every few kills, re-position to a place where you can see your original spot aswell as the entrance.

I am a Flanker/Ambusher. I like to set traps and then try to flank you. Should the flank fail, RUN AWAY! Then use the trap to cover my escape.

I think I play by the rules:
Never stop moving, if you stop moving they will catch you.
and
Let's see if they can find all the tricks and traps I have set up.

The Stealthy Sniping Flanker. No one suspects it, and people have difficulties finding me. Only taking the shot when it's a sure kill, so they can't retaliate! The number one rule of sniping: Know where your enemies are, only scope in to verify an enemy or before taking the shot. Sure I might not get a godly amount of kills per round, but I rarely suffer any deaths.

Weakness: Helicopters/Armored Vehicles/Huge amounts of enemies converging at my area.

Psycho Melee Master. Honsetly, any Melee weapon in ANY game for that matter (except turn based RPGs) is my specialty. Give me a wrench, sweet! Give me a crowbar, alright! Give me a kinfe, it's stabbing time, baby! Give me a chainsaw...

Though I am probably more of a Rusher/Flanker, I'm also whatever gets the job done. If I need to defend a base I'll be a sniper or camper. If I need to attack an objective I'm a rusher or flanker. I am also a Squad Player and go for objective with my squad if I can, being either the medic or another soldier.

im sure the majority of us play FPS games but what species are you

sniper: this species is usually found at the far end of the map picking off enemies who have just spawned. strength: one shot kill, weakness: exposed from behind

flanker: these crafty creatures are usually found on the outskirts, trying to get behind the enemy. strength: element of surprise, weakness: vulnerable from direct attack

camper: these opertunists dont hunt their prey but wait for it, usually in a corner with a shotgun. strength: can only be attacked from one angle, weakness: grenades

ambusher: these devious villians are often found putting explosives at chokepoints, they avoid direct conflict and use traps instead. strength: explosives, weakness: direct conflict

rushers: these guys usually have big guns and think that charging the enemy head on is the best option. strength: lots of fire power, weakness: limited range

so i ask thee, what species are you?
I'm a flanker, with a specialization in steamrolling. Why just have the element of surprise when you can have both the element of surprise AND a big gun?

Other type: Support.

Support will go defense and offense, but not without teammates, not a solo player... Doesnt car for MW2 that much.

I'm the Fire Support. As a Heavy, I flank and ambush people, get into position, and soak up damage allowing the explosive experts to flush out resistance.

Rusher. If I ever stop moving, I get sniped, so I just roll with it and charge straight into the fray.
