What's YOUR strategy?

[Sir_Tor]

Pick a sniper and activate the aimbot, works every time.

In TF2 i usually go for demoman or sniper. I like those classes.

 

[dalek sec]

I generally scream "For the Emperor!" and charge into the fray, machine gun blazing and trying to hit as many people as I can before I die.

Sounds like you're my occasional lucky kill! Thanks!

I was joking in my post, I really don't play online at all. No friends and I can't stand most of the people online at all. D:

 

[The Austin]

I'm not kidding when I say this, this is my ACTUAL strategy for pretty much all video games:

Fuck it's weak spot, fill it with lead until it dies.

 

[sansamour14]

well if its a long range map on BFBC2 i hang back and counter snipe after ive dealt with any snipers or i see my team cant get the objective i switch to my assault rifle and i support them.
if its a close range map i take my LMG or my Shotgun to protect the objective or push through the enemy defenses.

I also love to go with my C4 and destroy any vehicles that might be a danger to my team

 

[Doctor What]

I like to find a nice intersection, set up explosives and wait with my gun. Or hide whenever I can and ambush...with explosives. I've found that they are generally underused, which is a shame.

 

[Lord Legion]

First I throw my grenades in random directions until I'm out, then I will shoot my grenade launcher at anything that moves (team-mates, ect.) when I run out of ammo I try to knife someone and hope they kill me so I can rinse and repeat.


Just kidding...

I like to hunt, no matter what weapon I use, I break away from the action and sneak behind the percieved battle lines. I can usually get a few before I get greedy and go Rambo.

 

[Solemn Soup]

I like to go in with the assualt rifle and check my corners. I especially like to run in the game before averyone and in Battlefield Bad Company 1 and 2 set off all the crates if I'm attacker, if I'm defender i like to run and find a secure place to sit and defend the crates, however I like to move after I've killed someone.

 

[BlackCandleLight]

in tf2 i pick pyro
pick standard flamethrower
pick shotgun
pick axtinguisher
and listen to my enemies stories about how i doesn't afraid of anything

Talking about FPS's mostly. What do you do first? Does it depend on what map you're on, or what game? Do you go in with a character with high explosives, do achieve the goals before your enemy has time to react, or do you hang back as a sniper at the very start, and begin picking off what the riflemen pass up on? Or are you just one of the average, no-nonsense players who picks up a machine gun and uses pure skill and luck to achieve victory?

I'd say I usually grab an assault rifle, stay low and move in between buildings, looking through windows and peeking around doors like the AI does in Modern Warfare. Either that, or grab a shotgun.

And of course I enjoy sniping. Who doesn't? Counter-sniping especially. Always amazes me how other snipers stay in the exact same place they killed me in and expect me not to pick them off. Sigh.

ya I'm an kind of odd when it comes to strategy because I adapt extremely quickly to the situation switching between destroying a taken and flank a camp of snipers in a moment or switching between shotgunning everything and exploding everything else to sniping out targets in order that they are a threat. even though I am constantly switching I still add my unique touch to it like taking out a strong enemy line by using a tank that sounds normal but I barrel rolled it into them. it strange to show my unique style but my friend can tell you that you won't forget playing with me.

 

[Iron_Stalker]

This was a strategy I made up on the fly in the November BFBC2 Beta. I didn't have very many good weapons at the time,so when I heard a tank coming towards me, I ran and hid behind a nearby bush.
Surprisingly, the tank and it's gunner didn't see me, and rolled right on by. Knowing that I might not get this chance again, I ran up behind it with C4 and blew it up.

as for my other strategy, It's the same one everyone else has. Go behind enemy lines and snipe the bitches

 

[maturin]

Playing Arma 2, where bullets actually hurt, I run like hell chanting Hail Marys until I find a great big lump of concrete, hopefully a building, to put between myself and the enemy. And then I keep looking for more things to put between me and him, and then things to put between myself and the other firing positions so I don't get flanked. Then I wait for them to run into my sights, or if they don't I run from building to building until I've left tracks like that kid in The Family Circus sunday paper comics. Anything to be out of the open. And vertical cover is nice. Nothing is worse than having to look over a wall. I'd rather peek out from beside it.

I tend to aim for one hit kills, but they explosives of rushing out with a knife... Why? Cause its close and personal and tends to inflict as much frustration as possible.

 

[Omikron009]

I like destroying vehicles and demolishing buildings, while taking down enemies at close to medium range.

 

[Akai Shizuku]

Shotgun, ************.

Or an assault rifle. I rarely snipe (for fear of another dude with a motherfucking SHOTGUN). I'm usually the close combat type. I charge bitches until I can get up close and personal.

 

[Jfswift]

Generally speaking I go for balanced soldier classes. I like a rifle or tight bore shotgun (like in tf2) that can reach across the map. I like classes that have good mobility too and okay armor/stamina.

TF2 I'll play as Soldier, Medic and Eng most of the time. If i'm on medic I look for friends on my team first and usually stay close to them, healing others if they're close by. I usually coordinate via skype or vent too within small groups to try and take out specific goals like curb stomping the best player on the other team, spamming entrances or wiping out turrets.

 

[Nemesha]

Well my favorite weapon is the shotgun. I like up close and personal. But it depends on the game really. With counterstrike source I either had a shotgun/dual elites/ak47 in my hands because of the fast close quarter combat. In Call of duty 2 i'm the one holding a rifle and with Battlefield bad company 2 either I shoot you from miles away with a sniper or go frenzy with a machinegun and rpg's.

 

[olicon]

As far as FPS goes, I usually go for anyone with a shotgun. I consider myself a close quarter combat expert (I'm an expert at dying stylishly), and it's just more fun that way.

Question about shotgun users:
semi-automatic, pump action, or drum magazine?
Do you prefer large clip size, or stopping power?
What do you do when ranged combat comes asking for you? (Spam them until you die, or just run for it?)
