What's your strongest and weakest skill in an FPS?

[Xyphon]

Please guys, don't start the "OMG! THIS REQUIRES MORE SKILL THAN THIS OR THIS OR THIS OR THIS OR THIS!" bullshit. I just want to make a thread where people can discuss their strengths and weaknesses without bashing someone.

I'm at my best when I'm sniping. I'm able to accurately predict where my round is going to land when obstacles like distance and elevation are apparent.

I'm at my worst when I'm playing as an assaulter. My reaction time is decent, but most of the time I just end up spraying and praying when I get surprised.

 

[MasterSqueak]

I'm at my best when driving a light, multiperson vehicle. Like the warthog.

I'm at my worst when I need to aim.

 

[KING BOB 2896]

Spec Ops for my best. I like sneaking around battlefield planting C4 in places.

Sniping would be my worst. I just cant stand being out of the action, that and I'm so impatient to wait around for the pertect shot.

 

[NeutralDrow]

I'm at my best when attracting fire.

...okay, okay, I'm at my best when I'm defending an objective (with some overlap with sniping). I'm at my worst in mid-combat, because I'm a very good target with poor reflexes.

 

[Erana]

I'm pretty damn good with explosives, but I fail at trip mines and full-frontal assaults. I like playing the mole in a FPS whack-a-mole, if I can't have a weapon with a good scope.

My best would be picking up the controller.

My worst is actually playing. =-P

Sometimes I really hate the BF series. Especially BF:BC. NEVER have I seen people so damn lazy that they can't do a little running to get to an objective. They INSIST on knifing me just because I'm away from all of the action. =\

Best - dying. This is a serious answer. I'm awful at FPSes, but if I load up with an HMG/Assault rifle equivalent, I know when to run in, guns blazing so the other team either ducks for cover or guns me down, both of which distract the other side for long enough for my side to get in some good shots and wipe out the people that got me.

Worst - Sniping. I just can't shoot straight...

 

[JakBandit2208]

Best would be using a shotgun, I love running up and blasting people as for a weakness Sniping is my kryptonite.

 

[demoman_chaos]

I am all-around medicore. A sniper who likes to banzai charge. At best with some OP heavy machine gun but decent with a sniper at long range and good with an assault rifle at medium ranges.
Then the grenade appears and blows me to bits for the umptenth-quadrillionth time. I hate those little things.

Guns=Good
Grenades=I'm screwed.

 

[MetallicaRulez0]

Best: Sniping. I don't want to toot my own horn, but I may be the best Sniper on the 360 version of CoD4.

Worst: Dealing with campers. I have a horrible, awful habit of continually rushing when I know someone is camping. I don't try new routes, I don't try new strategy, I just rush straight at him and try to out-skill him. Obviously this gives that guy free kills, and gives me nerd rage fits when I fruitlessly bang my head against the wall (or in this case, the guy sitting on the corner with an SMG).

Camping is not a legitimate strategy. Stop saying it is.

 

[Elexia]

Best: Snipering (which is a shock because I suck at every other gun)
Worst: Grenade or air-raid signal flare... They usually result in my own demise.

 

[Thunderhorse31]

Best: Assault. Run-n-gun all the way.

Worst: Racing to the super weapons (in games that require that sorta thing). I hate having to do that and almost prefer killing everyone who predictably sprints to the same spots over and over.

Camping is not a legitimate strategy. Stop saying it is.

I really hope that statement doesn't start an argument. >_>

 

[sauerkraus]

Best: driving + heavy weapons
Worst: assault weapons

So I can drive anything with wheels (and without wheels) and I can snipe shit and blow up tanks without being seen.

But when it comes to unloading an entire clip into some douchenozzle right next to me,.... it just seems like my weapons never do any damage.

God i think ive played against you before, a few days ago while playing i could not get this one person who kept hiding in the back lines throwing grenades at me. So frustrating playing against players like yourself madam.

I don't like Vs gaming...
I'm boring like that.

 

[The_Prophet]

ahem,
Good: Scouting, Sniping, frontal assault, melee, charge, grenades
Bad:.... can't think of anything.
