Sniper rifle in close-combat.

Nothing. NOTHING! beats sniping people from 5 meters. Especially when they try to run past me and I slowly shoot another hole in their head.

 

[xXGeckoXx]

I do both. Although i am professional at sniping i do well with a rpg weapon/ or shotgun.

Nothing pleases me more than leaving someone wondering where the hell that bullet came from. It brings me joy to remove peoples faces from 500 yards.

I prefer to get up close and personal with a sniper rifle

nothing sends a demoralizing message to your foes then a point-blank sniper round to the face

I love doing it. However cod4 unscoped is ridiculous, the bullets gome out 10 degrees off from the correct trajectory!

I usually snipe. Nothing better than picking off the running target from across the map.

If the map is ill suited for sniping, I tend to take an accurate assault rifle (like the M4 or G3 in CoD4) so I can mid-long range snipe or rush as the situation demands.

If the map really isn't good for sniping (i.e Shipment in CoD4), I tend to use an SMG or similar spraying gun.

I tend to prefer finesse over practicality.

i like mid-range...all purpose weapons. sub-machineguns mostly. not assault rifles.

I'm actually getting COD4 for the PC after playing it on a friend's PS3. Might finally get off 2142, hehe.
I'm an all-rounder when it comes to roles. I can do anything moderately well, and I get lucky often. I'm not pro at anything though.
He suggested the M4 for that kinda player, how about you lot?

 

[ChromeAlchemist]

I very much prefer to mix it up, that was why G3 was ideal when I played CoD 4 (back in the day...it's been ages since I fired that thing up, and after playing valve games for so long it was weird to play it)

 

[Unknower]

Come on, you sons of bitches, do you want to live forever? CHAAAAAAAAAARGE!

Minigun is my weapon of choice.

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

In games i tend to snipe a lot.
In real life... well lets just say that nothing feels better than someones warm blood and flesh all over your face.

 

[wordsmith]

This is wierd actually- First thinking about it I'd far rather plant mines, set traps and generally have the enemy as weak as possible before actually firing. In practise I'm usually firing a shotgun whilst running towards my opponent, daring him to be the last one standing.

 

[Vorpals]

I like both, but what I really like doing in Left 4 Dead is getting the Hunting Rifle and (ab)using it as a long-ranged shotgun with a scope.

Trust me, it can kill zombies up close and it can kill zombies far away.

 

[Pandalisk]

Am i the only one who uses a sniper as an all purpose weapon?..it works just as good in close combat and at far away,

the reason is that snipers are genreally one hit kill to torso, so its like a long ranged shotgun without the spread, even close up if snipers keep there cool and aim at the torso the enemy can and will go down. works best in the old Cod United offence, Cod 2 games

 

[Grayjack]

I like a mix. It depends what I'm playing and what map I'm playing.

 

[seaofpain]

depends on what i play really halo is no scopes and cod4 i like to mix it up by no scoping a head shot then teabaging there body PWN3D
