Just thought what kind of FPS people like to play. And, of course, how?

Games

As far as I am concerned, I like to play modern shooters. I just can't get enough of CoD4. It's the perfect game for me. :ohyeah:

I don't like horror/survival stuff at all and don't fancy barren industrial settings of Half Life series. I like my FPS to have good outdoors like what was there in Far Cry, Crysis or up to an extent Halo. This is one reason I don't fancy F.E.A.R. too much. :P

I like my FPS to have lots of lights and prefer day time gameplay than the nights. I don't liked dark corners and monsters lunging at me, so I don't like Doom 3. :no:

As far as Possible I like to battle humans - if possible those with amazing AIs like mercenaries in far Cry - and not monsters and aliens. :bleh:
How I play FPS

1- I love my assault rifle. I need one good assault rifle (relatively accurate and powerful) that I always carry with me. My kind of assault rifle is M4 in Far Cry or Scar in Vegas 2. If it has scope that's great or even Iron sights will do. This is my primary weapon. Outdoor, indoor... evergreen. I like to fire in short bursts and because I usually don't go gun and run, I rarely use machine guns.

2- When I start a game I look to get a shotgun as soon as possible. And when I get one I rarely toss it away. I use it when I am indoors as I like to sneak up to enemies and then go all out blasting.

3- Sniper rifles. I use them on certain occasions and specially when I know I will be on the higher ground than my enemies.

4- Frag grenades are the last component. I don't use too many of them but carry as much as possible for those tight spots.

5- As you can guess from the kind of FPS that I play, I like to go to my fights slowly and tactically but try to finish them as soon as possible. so my games have a five minutes of sneaking around, a few shootouts with help of rifle scope or iron sight and then 2 to 3 minutes boom boom with shotgun.

Now, I am a relatively new player so lets see how expert fraggers here do it.

I know there is no one way to beat a game as almost all game incorporate various kinds of game play - sneaking, sniping, full blast, gun and run - but still tell what is you preferred style and how approach fights within a game. Of course, depending on your gameplay style depends the kind of games you like to play.

we are in same boat :)
 
i will go with options 1 , 3 and 5 ... actually the poll is sort of confusing ... coz games like stalker and HL2 are tactical enough with human enemies .. and also happen to have the horror and mutant enemies ... so u can't really make a poll like this ..but still ... if i want to choose one i will go with option 3 "Barren lands, ruined industries, human & mutants enemies and tactical like HL2, STALKER, Bioshock" .... but for my type i really want a game with the options 1 , 3 and 5 :)

Yep, the poll is little confusing but If you have played both CoD4 and HL2, you will know the difference.

And it is this difference that makes me like CoD4 and not HL2 :)
 
I like them all. hl series, cod series gears of war, bioshock everything

No fair :no: need multiple choices :bleh: 1,3,4

lol ..yeah bingo for the multiple choices

@morgoth ... u call COD4 relatively tactical ... and HL2 tactical :hap5:
 
Can sumone tell me what category CS:source be there in tha list?

I guess present tactical shooters,
but i gotta admit CS:S is the beast game made by Valve, and its my fav. [haven't played TF2 yet(online)]
 
I also like modern fps games like morgoth:D my favorite gun r the machine guns and sniper rifles dont like the games like bioshock gives me a headache:S
 
Depending on my mood i like to play rambo style for kicks and love sniping. favourite FPS farcry, last finished Medal of honour Airbourne. Didnot really like COD4 tbh.... to tactical for me enemies are boring....
 
Set in WWII, tactical as well as run&gun but rusty rifles and destroyed villages

now these type of games rock i still play MOH Allied Assult never got tired of the game and online play is also great

Well we all love all sort of games... don't we? But it's about what kind of FPS you love MOST :)

HL2 tactical because of all those turrets and traps. Also because the way you use the objects. HL series games have that puzzle element and so I termed in tactical. Of course, all may not agree

Honestly, that is a mistake on my part. I wanted to make another category for multiplayer FPS like CS and UT. But it just slipped out of my mind.

BTW, so far I am surprised at the results ;)
