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

[The_Commander_of_Offworld]

I am at my best with Stealth tactics, CQB, ambushing, and sniping. I am competent with assault tactics, though I simply do not enjoy it.
I do not do well with Vehicles. (I can destroy them easily while on foot, just don't ask me to drive one.) This strangely does not apply to arial vehicles.

Best would prolly be sniping. Or sneaking behind enemy lines if the game makes it worth it.

worst is vehicles, no doubt. especially the choppers in BF2

 

[TheBladeRoden]

Best: In COD4, a well placed and timed grenade (probably due to all that practice in worms!) - followed by a quick SMG assault. Note: I hate people who use flashbangs in CSS... they never seem to run out of those goddamn things.

Worst: Dodging to the left and right in UT 2k4 - I fail at that any time I try to attempt, I'm too used to classic shooters. After that comes sniping since I move around quite a bit and only go for headshots (no body shots generally).

oh, I should aslo mention that I'm bad at acrobatics, which makes me a poor wall jumper in UT and spending more time running on the ground as a scout than I ought to.

I am the master of grenade sticking. (namely, Halo) In a lot of games, the first thing I'll do is run to the nearest sticky grenades. By the end, usually about half my kills have been from grenade sticks.

I'm pretty bad at close-combat, though. Shotguns, melee weapons, whatever. I tend to fail at those a lot. My average lifespan is atrocious.

I'm a decent sniper, decent driver. I rarely do well as a vehicle gunner, but I've had my moments. And in team games, I should never be the first one in. I'll always just die in a spaz-tastic explosion of fail if I have to spearhead an assault.

I guess, basically, I'm a support or defensive character. For instance, in TF2, I'm best as a sniper, medic, or engineer.

My best would be my FPS Doug zone where i can kill anyone within 500 meters of me.

My worst is dancing ALL DAY LONG.

The Good - Precision gun-play. Not necesarily sniping, I prefer to have a powerful singleshot firearm at my disposal. Magnums are usually good. I'm not so good with machineguns/assault rifles.

The Bad - Aside from the aforementioned rapid fire deficiency, I'm no good with grenades that don't stick or explode on contact. I can never get them to bounce right, or get the timing on them so they explode when I want them too.

The Ugly - General survival habits. I'm terrible with defensive aspects in most games. I leave a clear opening in my defenses, or turn a complete blind eye to an obvious flanking.

Giving a shit.

 

[CNKFan]

Good: Suppressing Fire and Anti-Vehicle
Bad: Avoiding Snipers

 

[Raregolddragon]

This is odd to say but I have no weakness but at the same time I have no strengths.

 

[NotAPie]

I love to sneak and kill someone so they can be like "OMGWTFNOOB"
but when it comes to a firefight, I always end up dead.

Sorting by games fer mei. Goodities first, badness second.
Hal good: Driving, driving people, gunning, blowing VEHICLES up with everything but the spartan laser and the mine, shooting people in the face mid-short-longish range ('assault' weapons only), laughing at everything and gasping when I'm doing good, assorted team tactics, using the gun that none use and is good with it, jumping with my reload finger and still aiming and moving with my thumbs while shooting, hiding behind places when I know enemies have seen me and are in hot persuit, then ambushing them, rushing in with good reflexes.

Bad: sniping with a lot of enemy cover, getting hit by grenades, throwing grenades that stick to people at the ground in front of them, throwing grenades that explode on the ground only directly at people, not harming them, blowing PEOPLE up, hitting my teammates with cars and debris.

CoD:
Good: choosing perks and unique weapons
Bad: everything else. Rushing in without good reflexes.

GoW: Tps=close enough.
Good: faceshot with longshot, hammerburst, shooting cowboys, kantus pistol, shield, special executions, for the horde (locust)
Bad: everything else (close quarters shotgunfaceshowdown) and COG

Strength in all: NPC killing. Anything to do with Melee attacks or weapons.

 

[Nitehammer]

My best trait is stealth. This includes more than stealth-based classes. I excel at sneaking behind enemy lines or flanking through alternate routes. It really helps increase the effectiveness of assault classes.

My worst is sniping + grenades. I'm the type of person who spams grenades immediately after I spawn. Otherwise, I can't do anything with them. As for sniping, I used to be pretty good. However, after laying a ton of time into non-sniper classes in TF2, those skills have disappeared.

Not sure if this counts, but I also fail at console FPS. Mainly because I only play them at friend's houses, being the PC gamer that I am.

 

[Brownie101]

Best: Sniping (Though it's still pretty bad. I just suck at FPS in general.)
Worst: Everything else.

 

[Quinn Davis]

I'm a garbage Sniper, unless I get in a groove, which is rare.

My real skills are in stalking and close killing with melee and cqc weapons. I just seem to always know where to go to sneak up on unsuspecting snipers and people tightly holed up.

 

[Another]

Tie between sniping and (COD4 specific) being a grenadier.

I also have strange luck in what my friends call "Rambo-ing" just running in and melee assaulting to death. That's straight luck tho not skill.

I suck and mid range combat. I make stupid mistakes.

Strongest skill: Dying repeatedly

Weakest skill: Playing the fucking game
