Give me a sniper rifle and I can pick 'em off from a kilometer away, or if I can find a game with good stealth shooter mechanics, I can take them all out so well that even they won't know they're down.
Or you can put me in GunGame in CSS, where I can do it all, unless you give me a P227.

Bolt action rifles and semi automatic, FAL, Kar98K, M21, Lee Engfield... accurate long ranged offensive.
If that's not a opiton I'll go sniper or "shotgunér at ya service!".
Also, I always want a bayonet on my weapon if it's possible.

Offensive / Agile: Assualt rifle / AK47 with Uzi / Pistol
that best describes my overall play style. I don't play too many FPSes, i can only state two of them: CS and TF2. for the CS, my primary is always a 4,4 - either a Steyr or an AUG. Although i did manage to be a one man army with an AK47. But in TF2, I'm more comfortable as the Demo guy. I'm someone who enjoys being around the corners.

I'm comfortable sitting on the outside of a group picking them off with well placed shots or charging in guns blazing. I guess that would be the Offensive/Agile.
my mood is subject to change in shooters so i can't nail down which one i lie in so imma go with assault
Depends on the quality of the weaponry on offer (see Yatzhee's recent XP column) but if it's all good, the sniper rifle from distance, shotgun for up close. I prefer precision on which score the sniper rifle speaks for itself- it's that godlike sense of deciding your enemy's fate before they are even aware of it. Combining the sniper rifle with Adrenalin Rush in ME2 was near perfect, it turned the Viper and Widow rifles into viable firefight weapons as well as stealth/distance options. It almost felt unfair
Shotguns aren't always done right- the shotties in both ME2* and Gears were pretty unsatisfying, but the shotgun in Half Life 2 was a damn near perfect blend of force and a thunderous kick. The wide blast zone might make it seem a blunt instrument but unlike an assault rifle where you can spray until you hit, if you mistime the shot or spin too far during close in combat, there is always that extra second of exposure as you reload. The tradeoff is the feeling that you're kicking the enemy in the head with a thousand tiny pellets of hot death and watching large chunks of their health disappear at a time.
*I opted for the unusually satisfying Hand Cannon instead. One of the rare handguns that was a pleasure to use, sort of like the magnum in RE4 except with a decent replenishable ammo supply

I cant pick, I love em all. Love to snipe, love to blow stuff up, love to fire hundreds on bullets
I prefer assault rifles, full auto but I tend to fire in three round bursts, though the full auto allows me to unload if I ever get into enough trouble that its necessary. Use mostly stealth gear to keep me hidden from the radar and other junk. Then I tend to be stealthy but bouncing into offensive when its required.
Used to snipe a lot but I don't bother using a sniper rifle anymore. I find them too cumbersome these days, you don't get many kills and unless your especially good with those head shots or we're on an hardcore mode... Its not going to be much fun. I can however snipe pretty good with an assault rifle and the games I tend to play don't have maps that are big enough to a point that a sniper rifle is going to fair all that much better than an assault rifle.
So I can cover a good amount of ground with my assault rifle and stealth style of perks. I'd say I'm a good mix of both stealth, tactician and offensive depending on how the match is going. Also, I'm a pro with cocking grenades. Also, I'm not above camping and I often keep claymores at the ready just in case.
I can also run and gun if the situation calls for it. Prefer not to as it can be suicidal but I can do it. Specially if the enemies are held up in an area with windows. They often huddle together which means you've got a good chance at a double or triple kill if you cock the grenade off right. Then throw in the gas grenade type that poisons you (the one in Black Ops) while you carefully breach and take the place. Plans chance of success depends entirely on how skilled or savvy the other team are, as I imagine a good team will probably use similar tactics and thus will know to avoid it.

go for silent and hidden from a distance.but if you get to close i goe loud and the 44 gets to work.
I suck at it but I think I'de go with Snipers. Hanging out in the back waiting for the perfect shot.
I don't really have a particular one that I prefer. However I can tell you that I don't care for sniping.
A regular Jack of All Trades, Master of None. If it fires bullets, I can kill people with it, but there's always someone whose just a bit better than me.
