I'm always the...

[Chairman Miaow]

I always begin with the big ol' tank type.

 

[MrShowerHead]

Usually support. If it's a RPG, I'm a mage. If it's a FPS, I'll try to stay behind and support my teammates from there.

 

[ChupathingyX]

The charismatic leader who devises tactics.

Except for Resistance 2 co-op where i'm always the medic and always stay behind everyone constantly giving health.

 

[Lexodus]

Considering my thought process goes a little like 'They're over there, I'm over here. RUN AT THEM LIKE A CRAZY PERSON STRAIGHT THROUGH THEIR PUNY BULLETS AND SMASH EVERYTHING!' I'd say a healer. (^^)
for the stupid, my real answer is TANK

 

[Lexodus]

I usually end up going towards support classes such as medic/healers. Especially if it's hectic and you are right in the middle of it all keeping everyone alive it's quite fun.

Although I can pretty much play anywhere I'm needed so I guess I can also say "I'm always the guy who changes classes when 'X' is needed"

Same here.




In shooters I tend to use 'one shot one kill' weapons. Like sniper rifles or shotguns.

I tend to use one shot kill weapons, like rocket launchers

 

[standokan]

The rogue, behind the curtains, I run around the whole map and then attack the enemies from behind, always running.

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

In RPGs I'm always the rouge or Mage. In multiplayer games with classes, I'm always the fast class (i.e Scout in Team Fortress) or I'm the medic in others.

 

[Xenetethrae]

Always some form of mage. Although I like to get up close and personal too, So oftentimes I'll use the archetypal mage/warrior types: spellsword, battlemage, sorcerer

 

[Guffe]

Either ranged whom uses tactics to kill his enemies before they can reach him or the healer. I just like those two the most. Magic can also be fun thou.

 

[Vanalosswen]

In paper-based games, I'm fond of the paladin subtype of the warrior. I like being able to cast healing spells on myself when our spastic 16-year-old cleric goes shrieking off into the distance and I have to chase her down.

In most electronic games, though, I go for straight warrior who makes mostly Lawful Good decisions. Mostly. Which gives me a little more freedom than the paladin, because then I can kill Teryn Loghain without feeling guilty.

 

[Watchmacallit]

I'm normally a ranged support. Archer in old world based games and sniper in modern world games.

 

[Valanthe]

I play one of two playstyles, depending on what is needed, I am either the wall of steel shielding my allies from harm, or the man cowering behind said wall of steel popping healing spells or first aid kits on him like they were going out of style and swearing fervently about how we always end up in these kinds of messes.

Yeah, but rocket launchers aren't always available

 

[Cheesus333]

I always go for the magic classes (or their sci-fi equivalents) where available, because I love the diversity and variety in the skills and techniques.

...Then I start the game again as a Warrior/Fighter/Guy with a Sword cause I'm a shit mage and always will be.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Rogue, if they're actually quick and nimble. And not just bloody stealth characters or archers.

Mage in everything else. Which usually means...mage.

Dragon Age 2 is the first game in years that looks to have rogues that play the way I like to play them...

 

[Wondermint13]

Tank, cause usually other tanks suck too hard for me to trust them. =P

Damn right!! Dont trust 'em! Leave it to the people with some f***ing balls!

 

[Andalusa]

I either hide behind the scenes and act as back up, or go out as a scout. I enjoy both of these, people would be useless without me.

 

[Julianking93]

I'm always the survivor. Why Wolf???

I'm usually the mage or long ranged fighter normally. I like picking off enemies from the next town over. That or stealth. I just like not being seen

 

[pyrosaw]

The medic. Your welcome.

 

[onewheeled]

I'm a Monk/Mesmer in Guild Wars, 'nuff said.

For people that don't play the game, that's a total support role. And that's what I always enjoy playing, the classes or roles that don't involve leading the group, just keeping in the background while still being absolutely crucial.

Hence why I'm a bassist, as well.
