Poll: Brute Force or Lethal Efficiency?

[Wadders]

Which one does close range shotgunning count as?

It's a bit of both I reckon. Shotguns are brutall efficient. Just as long as your within range

 

[AlternatePFG]

I really like accurate weapons in most FPS games usually. There's a few games where that is the exception (I hate playing as the Sniper in TF2).

You can have control over a tidal wave if you'd like, but if it's directed at a deserted island you've accomplished nothing.

 

[Bravo 21]

i like soldier, heavy, and demo man in tf2, so i guess im an overwhelming force kinda guy. Afer all, they might be able to outsmart me, but ive never met anyone who can outsmart bullet. or rocket launcher, or a large number of grenades

 

[Dapper Ninja]

Being the kind of guy that enjoys Hitman way too much for any normal, non-sociopathic person, I'm going to have to go with the lethal efficiency option. It's sexy.

Which ever can blow the biggest chunks of body parts off at any given time.

 

[ShasoRmyr]

I will generally shoot first and fine tune my aim later. That said when I do use snipers I'm very careful with my aim... except in MOH I can't snipe well in that game for some reason, I get more kills with the pistol.

 

[Slaanax]

I like shooting as many bullets as possible at the baddies, so I go more for brute force

 

[Paksenarrion]

I prefer Lethal Force, or, when I'm feeling kinky, Brute Efficiency.

all depends on the map. every map has different tactics to employ. for example; large open maps with many hiding spots-efficiency...mostly with sniper rifles or a stealth build made for sneaking. enclosed urban areas with narrow corridors and choke points-brute force. SMGs/shotgun and a fast build made for rushing and CQB, or LMG in support fire to whittle down intense opposition, or may i say it, explosives. Assault rifles on the other hand are the balanced weapon. able to be efficient when you need it to, and delivering significant volume of fire when needed. suitable for maps with a mixture of types of terrain.

i have many reasons why i chose precision over power, here one case in modern warfare 2:
friend spraying machine gun fire everywhere where i am
I take 3 seconds:
1. aim
2. stop breathing ( click and hold left stick)
3. shoot, target down
game, set, match
it was on rust...

 

[astrav1]

I'm a shotgun man myself, so brute force.

 

[CrazyMedic]

depends on the map although generally surgical precision is hard to pull of but hard to counter, ie the guy with the mg has just as much chance of getting killed as the guy he is kill
but the sniper has little or no chance of getting killed when killing the guy but it is harder to pull off.

 

[Sir Thomas Sean Connery]

In terms of [i/]those[/i] games I say brute force tanking, but for virtually any other game, I go sniper/sneaking.

 

[Cypher10110]

When you play games like Call of Duty or Battlefield or even Medal of Honor, do you prefer weapons with overwhelming force, or surgical precision?

We're assuming that Sniper rifles do not represent "Brute Force".

I prefer lethal efficiency, however I find sniper rifles too impersonal. I like shotguns, pistols, and melee weapons. To end the fight quickly is what I aim for.

Also any game with smoke bombs gets bonus point.
*poof* ninja vanish!

 

[newdarkcloud]

Precision. The less bullets I have to use, the more I have for when things really get bad.

 

[Knight Templar]

I'm a pretty good sniper and even when I have an automatic weapon I'm not shooting for long before they die.
So precision. Like a painter who uses other peoples brains, blood and fear to paint.

 

[Naheal]

I have a kill preference which I'll list down here:

1) Convince to join (use their ammo and have THEM kill MY enemies)

2) Precise proxy. Hacking would be the best thing here. Turn their defenses against them.

3) Auto-proxy. Traps like claymores and such go here.

4) Long range, but quiet. A suppressed, high powered sniper rifle is my favorite in this spot.

5) Stealth kill. If I can get up to you without you noticing, I'll take you down that way.

6) Precise shots. If there's a low chance of me hitting you, I won't even bother.

7) Explosives. Generally reserved for large groups, explosives can be useful for taking out a single target. I cite grenades and launchers.

8) Spray and Pray. I do this only when there are no other options and I have no actual means of locating you.

 

[GiantSpiderGoat]

I thought you were talking about the Xbox game "Brute Force". I am disappointed.

Both.Assault rifles enter both areas
