Hmm...
My best is camping, in any of its multiple fashions and with multiple separate weapons (The only exception being CoD's shotguns and Halo's sniper rifle). I'm usually pretty analytical about how I play my shooters (this is mainly about CoD, with a little bit of Halo thrown in), so the ability to find a good area with a large vantage point and a few easily defended entrances, and then use that area as an overwatch to shoot guys who are running around out in the fields is a strong suit of mine.
Worst: I'm easily aggravated. This wouldn't seem like a big issue, but when an enemy gets me out of my campy spot, and then decides to stay there himself (this happens alot on some maps), I get pissed off, and combined with my bullheadedness, this means I will continue to try and clear the enemy out of "my" spot until it works, which means i occasionally have ASTONISHINGLY negative Kill/Death ratios in some games. Oh, another weakness i have is that on missions where there aren't many good areas to camp or the action is too free-flowing, i have difficulty anticipating enemy movements and reacting accordingly (a prime example of a map like this is Vacant on CoD 4). On maps with that sort of layout, i will usually go positive, but not by much.

I'm easily aggravated too. What aggravates me most is my teamates. It seems that I'm a retard magnet since I always get those dumb shits that want to spawn right next to you while you're in your hiding spot and immediately start trying to shoot a fly about 500 yards away with a damned machine gun. That or they spawn next to you and knife you for being a sniper.Schwenkdawg said:
Battlefield: Bad Company is ESPECIALLY guilty of both.
I'm pretty good at guerilla style gameplay - run in , run out and hope and pray the person you killed hasn't got a friend close by.
Strength: Sniping and everything that comes with a sniper, pistols, grenades, mines, etc.
Weakness: Luck, just like in CoD5 you spawn RIGHT into the action ¬.¬"
If i can live longer then 5 seconds, i usually get into a sniper position, but around the same time, i get attacked at the exact point that i failed to guard...or i just get sheer unlucky.

*Shrugs* your not that good, or you would be know as the number one for everything. I use a Sniper Rifle, and I'm usually top of the game, doesn't mean I'm awesome.Xvito said:
Also you never answered the question.
Good at: Some games I'm best with machine guns, and some games it's rockets, things that require a wrench or pliers
Bad at: Airplanes, not doing suicide rushes instead of tactically withdrawing and waiting for backup, commando roles
Most bipolar skill: Sniping, some days I'm awesome and some days it's like my first time using a mouse.

Best: Team Fortress 2 sniper. Combination of Quick shots, Jarate/no-scopes and kukri rushes from unexpected spots.
Worst: Anticipation ie soldier, Demoman Grenades (forgive my team fortress references i just had an insane Sniper Game)

My best is adjusting to all the different weapons in the game and finding out which suits me the most.
However I always get shocked when running into other players and that throws me of for a couple of seconds. I can't play horrer games like Doom because everything just scares me all the time.

I'm a CSS and CoD4 nut haha
Good: Aiming and baiting enemies, especially when I've planted the bomb. Good sound helps.
Grenades, if you hear 'tink tink' its gonna hurt.
Bad: Sometimes I see red and run myself straight into a bunch of enemies, my screen name was .:splat:. for a long time due to this.
