In FPS games, what is your favorite weapon type?

[Assassin1344]

I usually use assault rifles but depending on the game I will also use SMG's and Rocket Launchers.

I tend to stick with Pistols or SMGs.
Pistols often aren't really the "viable" option and just a side-arm, so SMGs as the main weapon. Shotgun works too.
Prefer to use them defensively with much mobility.

since my early days of fps in unreal tournament that it is always the rocket launcher, wich is one of the reasons i dont play most fps nowadays since they require for you always be hiding or in cover while shooting from behind it, unlike the good old days where people were running and jumping all over the place like rambos

I like snipers. Being patient can be hard but ever so rewarding for head shots.

Shotgun for surprise attacks, SMG for the "run, fire, hide, forget, reload, run again" feel and Pistols for the pleasure of killing ppl with only skill in my hand.

Against computer (in story mode) i often use Pistols to increase difficulty through other means than it using aimbot/more HP.

LMG just lacks personality

[Snes]

I like setting bombs and remotely detonating them with good timing. Not on the list

Whatever the closest thing to a battle rifle is, nevar forget.

[Sephiracle]

Sniper and Melee. I have pretty terrible aim in FPS, so I prefer to snipe(in the sense that after I shoot they may not know where I'm at)

[Bigitybones]

I will find ways to use a shotgun if at all possible. If not, assault rifles are the weapon for every occasion.

fan of shitguns and a sig with omar now this man is dedicated to the weapon

OT i have no real preference it depends on my mood but theres something about smgs i truly enjoy

Knife, Sniper rifle and assault rifle. In that order.

[OrcsRLame]

It depends entirely on the game. In Halo for example, I love Rifles, in Gears of War I love shotguns. Each game is different.

Doom 3 + shotgun best combo ever. Shotguns for the real mans.

[Rixis]

light machine guns typically, closely followed by assault rifles, then in with a knife (i hate pistols in games, would prefer to die trying to knife someone than bother with a pistol :P )

[Agent Mercury]

FN-P90 baby

[Omglavaburst]

BFG in Quake3=win

[PenguinChan]

Pistols of almost any kind.

80% of games they are infinite ammo to the T. PEW PEW
