I almost always end up as the team leader for some reason and do a reasonably good job, apart from that i either use Assault Rifles (TAR-21 for MW 2) or sneak with SMG's.

Support fighter, I can get into heavy combat if I have to, I just prefer backing others up.

Spec Ops, I think differently than the rest of the team and take the road less traveled. 2 hours later I'm behind the enemy base and backstabbing every sucker in there.

I usually end up going sniper, though I like to think I'm handy with a grenade... But sniping is satisfying. Any game, it's my weapon of choice.

Long-range survivalist (sniper) but when people expect me to win the game all by myself I go pyro.

Leader. It's kinda odd actually, sometimes I don't even mean to, only to catch myself bossing around complete strangers halfway through a game, then realizing holy shit they're actually listening to my orders! I've done this since childhood though, just comes naturally I suppose.

When it comes to general team roles, I'm usually the stealthy assault type guy, who rushes in quietly before ambushing them. That, or sniper.

Either a good distraction or basically a tank to help push through defenses. Also on CTF game modes as squad leader(3-4 man team that always gets the flag and finishes the game in under a minute)Also I like to be the spy running behind enemy lines.

I am the person who will lead the push no matter how suicidal it is, I also act as a team leader giving orders to other players (not in a control freak way but suggesting plans for instance I ask an ally to flank around whilst I attack from the front)

I usually end up as the coordinator. I don't call it 'Leader', because I really don't give orders so much as suggestions. The way it goes down is usually like this:
Rd. 1 - complete clusterfuck
Rd. 2 - complete clusterfuck
Rd. 3 - I finally say "Okay... look... we've got to get organized here. Seriously: player A, you seem to like to do , so . Player B, you're obviously a so ; and you should probably do , Player C. You're obviously really good at it... I'll clean up the rest"
Rd. 4 - I say " remember my suggestions last time? Let's try it this time, okay? Seriously, if it doesn't work, I won't say shit ever again."

Usually, Rd. 4 is when we start rolling. After that, it's all good. Generally speaking, when you at least define what people should do, they're much happier and efficient. There are- of course- exceptions to the rule, where it is going to be a rolling ball of fail regardless of how much you try to help people.

Pure assault using mid-range weapons (assault rifles and the like). When it comes to FPS games, I secretly try to play everything like Quake (running around and shooting folks rather than sniping).

If I'm not the one taking point, I'm the guy who gets behind the enemy and plants traps in their base, something not many people expect.

I've also been told I'm really good at banking grenades.

In L4D I usually take one of two roles. I either hang back and and keep my health high so I can stay alive long enough to heal everyone or I take the lead so that I take the hits so everyone else doesn't . Either way, I take the role of protector.

Well, dont take this the wrong way, but my first post here!!! (sadly iv been here since March 09 and its Jan 10). Anywho, I tend to go the basic grunt or camper/Dfense route. In TF2 i usually play eng. even if has nothing to do with the game type and MW1 and 2 usually stuck to G36, ACR etc etc.. No stinger or Javlin missle, no bolt action ACOG sniper rifle, just me, my trusty fully auto assault rifle, and alot of rounds (In MW2 I usually will atleast get the most reloads or rounds shot award).

Im the one who watches everyone elses backs. When the match starts I just hang back and wait for the few people who try and flank. I also run around the outer edges of the map and take out snipers.

I am the berserker.

I run into the center of the fray, and I dont come back...until I respawn. However, even though my K/D Ratio is shit, I am normally in the top 3-5 in most games. I get klls, and kills alone. Im probably a 1.5:1 K/D average.

However, ironically enough, in TF2 I am a sniper. That is really the only game I'll snipe in.
