Your favorite way to kill guards.

Silenced pistol and be all schneakeh. That or just run in and stab everyone.

Definitely the stabby kill in Alpha Protocol.

Holy crap! Someone else who played Alpha Protocol! (And enjoyed it?)

The game's awesome. Definitely worth a play to people who like dynamic stories/gameplay.

Did they manage to fix the shoddy accuracy issue?

Never had a problem with it. It's an RPG, not a shooter.

Neck? meet knife

if we're stealthily killing stuff

Otherwise, fiyah powah!

hmmm... assassins creed games i love the air assassinations, just kinda has that "i am batman" feeling for me. in shooters i love sneaking just close enough to where i pop out with a shotgun right in their mouth and repaint the wall behind him with a mix of blood and brain matter

Oblivion I just kill a random civilian, then use the spell I got from The Shivering Isles to resurrect him as my man slave. Then I sick him on the nearest guard.

I am quite partial to the silent "death from above" quick-and-close assassinations in Cooking Mama.

My favorite way to kill them (if possible) is to let them duke it out with other NPCs. My favorite thing to do with them is to not kill them at all.

It just makes me feel like a super spy when I successfully sneak by someone rather than getting caught and having to off them.

Load there ass with large amounts of shrapnel and lead. Barreling your way through looks so awesome.

I enjoyed that part in Black Ops where you pull an enemy underwater and slit his throat so thoroughly that he's nearly decapitated by the end. Stabbing a guy through the heart from behind was bretty cool too.

 

[TheZombieTerrorist]

did you wait till the crosshair shrink and turn red before firing? cus' i didn't know that till half way through the game...

 

[Rusty pumpkin]

One by one, until theres a lone guard who i torture for some time, or with a series of clever traps that blow them up or kill off the stupid ones so i can punch the smart ones to death.

I got addicted to this tactic in Bioshock.

I find an unaware opponant, set them on fire, back away so they can't find me, then listen to their screams and eventually crumpling corpse.

 

[Snarky]

I wonder if rent-a-cops, armored car personnel, or blackwater (Xe Services) folks ever take offense about how many armed henchmen are brutally killed in videogames? They had it coming. Shouldn't have taken money to guard things!

I like it when you have the option to pretend to be guard and get to maintain a conversation with another guard, he has you over for dinner, you build a relationship with him or her, you're named the god father of the other guards first born, then one day: stab 'em, casually plant explosives or steal the plans or whatever you're supposed to do, and leave. Long timescale infiltration: you lose points in time, but gain points in brutally murdering someone who thinks you're their best friend.

My favorite type of killing is, when you trigger an alarm, figure out what door the armed response exits from, then headshot guard after guard as they file out one after the other.

The assasinations in Halo:Reach-so AWESOME!
Tricky to get though
so most of the time I prefer sniping,
nothing more satisfing than an your target having no idea whats happening
until they get a bullet through their skull

 

[BlueKunai]

I liked to Patsy soldiers in Prototype so their mates would blow them pieces thinking that they were me >:3

Other than that, my methods of choice would be either the subtle approach with a knife in their spines or the "alert the entire facility of my precence" approach that involves a whole lotta explosives

 

[Cronky]

Keepin up the Alpha Protocol love.

Gotta say my favorite way to "Kill" a guard is the throat punch (again, in Alpha Protocol).

 

[thatguy1]

Hitman way: kill one with a silent shot to the head, dress up as him, and wire choke all the others.

 

[ThorUK]

In large, open-world games like Stalker, pick them off at range with a silenced SG550.

Urban environments, stealth melee /pistol.

 

[Psycho Cat Industries]

Herding them into a big crowd then detonating the tnt

 

[TiefBlau]

LEAPING FROM A GARGOYLE AND ATTACKING THEM FROM ABOVE SO YOU CAN HANG THEM UP LIKE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
