RPG terms: DPS (damage per second, hit it hard, hit it fast)

FPS terms: Mid-range (Stay at a reasonable distance shooting with a mid-size gun)

I'm the survivor. Or coward. Depends how you look at it.

I also love being the getaway driver, but you don't get to do that often.

I often end up being the medic, as people don't want to play it, and it's almost always the most useful class, and I like helping the team. I'm often a medic in TF2, and in every MMO I've played, I've had a healer as an alt, if not as a main.

If I'm not the medic, or a medic class is not available, I go for some general support kind of guy. Suppressive damage, general "hold the line!" business, while the other, more fraghungry players can get the kills.

I almost never play solo classes, who don't directly help team members, such as sniper or spy in TF2. Of course these classes aren't useless, but they're very "lone wolf", and focus on killing as many enemies as they can, instead of working towards objectives.

Im the ne who takes the sniper in the beggining of the match and defends the fort, getting 20 snipes before going in and going Chuck Norris on them with a heavy machine gun, in COD:MW2, usually its the LSW.

I just run in yelling "SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTAAAAAAA!" like a lunatic 3 minutes after watching 300. Which give the enemy points. You know, I guess I'm the double-agent if you think I'm actually cool...which you shouldn't...

Always Medic except in TF2, its too pacifist.
The Medic is a syringe spouting, saw-hacking, walking machine-o-doom that regenerates health and only needs an excuse to start looking for his heavy pal. AND YOU CALL THAT A PACIFIST?!
Only bad medics actually try to kill people when their is someone nearby that they could heal.
Oh the number of times an overconfident spy has had a meeting with my ubersaw, after foolishly uncloaking between me and my Heavy, thinking I'll just stand there.
Good medics know when it's time for love, and when it's time for war.

When playing a game like World of Warcraft, or any other Fantasy-type RPG game, I'm almost always the healer/spell caster...

But in L4D, CoD, etc., etc., any game where I can get my hands on a shotgun, I basically just run ahead and blow up everything.
And then usually I get downed and need help.

I do as I am told by the one I have deemed "Boss"

If I am ever made the leader of anything I always go "Now what?"
This but sometimes I'm the Recon guy,

Any Flanking class, In team fortress that's scout and spy.
I like soldier too, because i've a terrible aim, but with a tactical advantage i can kill them, it's great!

I'm not usually good at killing in online fps games. My goal is to achieve objectives. Planting the bomb, capturing the flag, you get the idea. I'm generally quick and sneaky. I hate deathmatch.

is your crew getting slowed down by concentrated gunfire or campers? ... fear not .. because i'm usually behind them with a knife and a silenced sub machine gun

first thing i EVER do in an FPS is let everyone move out .. give them all a good 20 seconds to go where they wanna go .. then i start slowly making my moves .. ignoring gun battles, using them as cover and getting behind enemy lines ... then out of nowhere the enemy begin to notice corpses in their own territory .. they become scared to use their own buildings as cover because they know that someone is creeping around their territory assasinating them haha ..

i mostly do this on COD ... believe it or not i've never played team fortress .. although my cousin tells me that after seeing me on COD and MGO he thinks i'd make an epic spy haha

Seeing as I only really play one competitive online game, I alternate between nine roles: Scout, Soldier, Pyro, Demoman, Heavy, Engineer, Medic, Sniper, and Spy.
