Best: Leading a light/medium/heavy assault, giving fire support(I.E. throwing grenades, keeping enemy heads down with random gunfire and sniping), flushing out snipers and defending a stronghold.
In Halo 3 I noticed I can drive/fly like no-one. I usually end up transporting alot of guys around the map.
Worst: Camping(I just get owned by another camper whenever I try. I always have to keep moving or they will notice me.), combat at extreme long ranges and dealing with hyperactive nerds in my team(I truly hate those guys, constantly screaming in their headset about how they owned the enemy. And it was your kill).

Im good at one shot powerful guns, like bolt rifles in CoD or the Railgun in Quake.
Mostly because ive played a stupid amount of bolt rifle only games in CoD2.
Im better at sniping without the scope and much prefer it, but dont like sitting still unless im defending something, much prefer offensive.
And now in CoD4 I have a lovely bolt gun thats quite rapid and mostly oneshot kill in hardcore mode.
Im crap at nighttime playing. I lose focus and just kamakazi alot.
Pants at big fat heavy weapons that just spray, I tend to reload after every little shot (another bad thing) so if I have a minuite of reload time im quite useless.

Vehicular warfare. Especially when that's in the black void of space.
Weakeast. Well, anything that's not in the cockpit of a vehicle. Gimme a gunship in Eternal Silence and I will dance around the enemy's missiles for six hours without giving up a single hit in such a slow ship. Just make sure it's the NGM gunship, the UTF one is a friggin' shopping trolley.

Worst: aiming
yeah thats right, and I could STILL top non hardcore servers in COD4 with shotgun bunnyhopping rampages
Best: predicting what other people are going to do (hence why its possible, with me I come from behind, or after a flash grenade in FPS's or I lose generally.

Best: Getting to any location on the map
Worst: Being the least bit useful there.
Also snipping because waiting bores me so much that I switch my television back to my programs then check back and I'm dead.

Anything involving sniping or stealth I'm brilliant at, given the patience. Plus, I'm absolutely amazing at picking tactics and knowing exactly what each teammate and myself should be doing, where and when.
However, I'm pretty bad when pinned down. In that case I rely on a sniper for cover since I can't fire out without attracting enemy fire myself.

Best: Ramboing. Who cares if you die mot of the time before you can make a kill, it's a game, it's meant to be fun, which I don't class waiting around a, which brings me to my next point.
Worst: Sniping. I'm too impatient to wait around for a target, and when one does appear I can never bloody hit them.

Weak point: aim.
Strong point: tactics. I play to win, not for kills. I'm patient and mostly employ tactics and weapons that minimize the need to aim, instead relying on observation, timing and area effect weapons like grenades. My normal modus operandi is harassing, crippling and shutting down more than one enemy player at a time so they have to come after me, thereby tying them up and giving my team superior numbers to contest the actual objective with. Whether I die in the process is of no concern.
Another thing I love is manipulating the enemy into doing something stupid. For instance, if I knew I was going against this guy

I would camp as long as it paid off. Normally I never camp because it doesn't seem to work that well for me. (Probably one more thing that require good reflexes and aim.)MetallicaRulez0 said:

worst:close quarters with more than one enemy , throwing grenades, and calling in accurate artillery strikes.

I'm fairly good at heavy assaults, and I can also be good with stealth when I'm feeling patient.
I suck at close combat, if someone gets close enough to knife me, I somehow always die.
But it depends on the game, I can be great with a certain skill in one game, and only mediocre at best in another.

My strongest is Stealth - its just my preferred style of play.
My weakest is Heavy Assault - too cumbersome, always running out of ammunition and never accurate enough.
