Default Your playstyle!

Sooo, what is everyone's favorite playstyle in fps games? I used to always be a sniper with some stealth killing (sneaking up behind them with a knife, or whatever). Went back to playing Farcry 2 online a week or so ago, am currently much more into using my assault rifle with the scope (AR-16), as opposed to playing sniper.

Weapons permitting, I'll probably try playing like that in APB too if I get it. Heres hoping for a scoped rifle or something along those lines, and for some backstabbing combat knives. ;D

Default all out offensive

no matter what game i've been playing i've always found that im best in a huge chaotic fight and im in there with a close-combat weapon shooting at everything that moves. i had a top ranking of number 7 on a Gungame server on Counter-Strike source fighting like that. im just your typical brainless soldier :P (with 118 IQ xD)

Guns blazing, explosions. I'm best at driving in games like gta/crackdown etc and even in Halo et al I'm better with a vehicle. Gears of War, CoD and the rest its all about high explosives, grenades, .50 cal machine guns and whatever causes as much destruction as possible. =)

I love being the crazy driver fond of explosives. I hope there will be options for rigging vehicles with explosives. Just imagine driving right into the madness, run (while shooting) away from the vehicle, activate your detonator, and watch the fireworks!

I think there could be some interesting enemy at the gates style play offs between rival snipers. I think thats part of what makes the game awesome is there could be a guns blazing all out battle in the street and a deadly game of cat and mouse going on overhead.

Looking at the videos the character who is speaking on behalf of the Enforcers has an assault rifle with a scope hanging on his back. I also noticed the attention to detail...it was connected to a strap and his pistol had a holster.

To tell the truth everyone wants to be a assassin lol. My play style is the only one that matters...Stay alive and kill/arrest as many people as possible. Before someone gets lucky enough to take me down.

I'm probably going to be leaning more towards the driving aspect of the game. I'm always experimenting with new routes from point a to point b in all my other games that have an open-world driving option, so I think I'd be one of the better people to call on as a wheelman. I can't say what level of skill I'll exhibit in APB quite yet, but if it's as arcade-y as it seems, I should have no troubles at all.

For on-foot sections however, I think I'll wind up being a counter-sniper. Too much time playing other shooters has always got me thinking about where all the local sniping points are, and how to take out whoever may be perched in them with whatever is currently available to me. Assuming there aren't any snipers around though, I'll probably just adapt to whatever's needed at the time. I don't usually get set in a single play-style; it restricts you after a while.

True...but the name of the game is survival. But you can get yourself killed just to spawn and come up behind them and start arresting them before they know what is happening lol
