Post your biggest MP weakness, in any game.

Mine is that I'm slow when it comes to aiming, and this gives people an opportunity to get a few easy kills in. With weapons like automatic or semi-automatic guns (fast rate of fire and no splash damage) , I can pretty much let loose and sometimes kill them before they kill me (since you don't need perfect aim) , but with explosive weapons or weapons with splash damage with a slow rate of fire, forget it. It takes too long for me to effectively aim and make sure i don't hit myself with splash damage.

Anyone who has played against me on the JK server knows this--- every time i get my hands on a conc or a railgun, I am as good as dead, b/c I take too long aiming. Sometimes, I blow myself up accidentally when I miscalculate splash damage radius. because of this, I stick with either the saber in JK or fast weapons like the repeater or stormtrooper rifle. In saber-only maps, I usually kick my share of a**, but on maps with lots of guns, I get my a** handed to me b/c i like to get in close for the kill, and i'm no match for explosive weapons at that range.

Some people like to jump around with the conc and shoot at me. i'm amazed that they can do that and still be that accurate--- I know for fact that I can't do that. Those kinds of players are my worst nightmare in JK.

Totally, same with me, it take longer for me to aim, and by the time I have them in my sights there's a rail detonator in my face.

My weakness, is that I'm not very good at being sneaky. I am horrible at being Spys in Chaos Theory multiplayer. In Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat I could never get behind a person to knife them. I'm a run and gun kind of guy. It's because I play mostly Painkiller and UT2k4.

Excessive reoading. If I've only spent one or two bullets in my clip I have to reload. THis most often results in me getting capped in the middle of the animation.

^ Heh, yeah I do that a lot too.

Hiding spots. Like dark corners in hallways or something that you could usually just run by and someone might hide there. If I check'em theres usually nobody there. But almost every time I forget to check'em, someone pops out. :p

I'm only good with up close weapons, like lightsabers, shotguns, etc.

My biggest weakness (and biggest strength at the same time) is that I don't really care about getting shot/hurt. Forget cover, forget sneaking, forget dodging. I'm a run, aim, shoot, win kinda guy.

(downside, I die a lot :(, but not as often as I kill :em321:)

The fact that I'm bloody awful when playing them first person shooters and the fact that I don't have enough patience or don't like to play RTSes.

When I snipe, I'm not too good about relocating or checking to make sure someone isn't coming to knife me in the back.

I find myself distracted by the other players' taunts and feel I have to retort somehow. Or I'm trying to do funny glitch stuff with my player. All in all, I'm just not as focused as I could be.

I'm most vunerable when im standing still......<_<->_>

Shiny things.

My major weakness "apart from botching easy shots, or shots that SHOULD be easy) is in being a bit too gung-ho and confident in my ability. I mean, sure, if I'm doing well I can pop out and shoot people before they can aim right, but trusting that I can do that EVERY TIME gets me killed at least half the time.

I'm the opposite of Pagewizard_YKS, I suck against rapid-fire spammers and going at multiple close-in opponents at the same time. Like the PpSH-hordes on both sides in any East Front map in Call of Duty, Battlefield 1942/Vietnam point-blank strafing pistol duels, or any circle-strafing pray and spray stuff.

I'm good at deliberate shots (taking out drivers or exposed gunners), mid-range skirmishing, counter-sniping, taking out slow-moving vehicles with explosives, harrassing, flanking, and ambushing. Unscoped rifles and satchel-charge explosives are my frieeends. The weapons don't even need to be hit-scan (taking out attacking over-confident low-flying airplanes with a bazooka in BF1942 when aircraft were overpowered and AA was nerfed in 1.33 ). The trick to being a bit sneaky is not to shoot whenever you see them if they haven't seen you yet. If they don't know where they're being shot from, then they don't know where to take cover, or which direction to face.

Check your background (standing in a shadow with a dark skin? not good enough, make sure there isn't a well lit area or surface behind you too), don't stand at the top of hills and silhouette yourself against the sky, mid-points of ridges and valleys are your friends. Wait until you have the advantage. Let them walk into the middle of an opening, so that to reach cover once you open fire they either have to run right back to where they came from or towards your position. You can even let them walk past you until their backs are turned, until they start shooting at someone else, crouch, or go prone. Then just run up and blow them away or take a deliberate well-aimed shot. If you're close you can even use your sidearm or a melée weapon, as usually they really won't have a chance to react, unless you're unlucky and they turn at the last second.

I don't care enough about my own safety to truly be effective. I love being the guinea pig.

My biggest weakness is that I'm very conservative.

I tend to stay back, pick off the stragglers, while maximizing my safety. This does result in a rather good K/D ratio, but not many kills.

i love to snipe. people generally don't like snipers that snipe all the time. in saying that, there's nothing like getting sniped. it keeps you alert. respawn and look for the ****er. look for a vantage point to snipe him or walk up behind him and knife him. nothing better than strolling up to a sniper and knifing him.

Lag.

This is mine. I'm amazing at being sneaky, and I'm quick to aim.

If I get my hands on a copy of Painkiller, we're getting a massassi game up. I promise you I will be in the top 3. On monday I had a LAN game with 15 people, with a kill limit of 50.

The games never lasted their time limit of 8 minutes. In fact, I was kicked out of the game because the rounds went by so fast. "We still love you!" they said. "I only stick you with stakes beacuse I love you!" I replied, and went to WoW.




In Far Cry this is one of the greatest things to do, since you can see the glare from the scope, you know where they are when you respawn. Nothing is greater then knifing someone in the ***, and watching them tumble down the side of a cliff smacking into trees and rocks.

i'm slow to aim, but this is never really a problem, since it's not who shoots first that matters.

all of the above:(

I'm good at assault, stradegy, stealth, saber combat and all that nonsense, but I can't do the most basic thing. I can't snipe worth jack, i've probably have gotten less than 20 kills with the tenloss the whole time i've played ja or jo.

Slow to aim too I guess.

I suck at war games. Doesn't matter what it is. Battlefield, CoD, anything, I will die. The only game I am decent at is CS, and that's because the weapons aren't exactly spot on.

My main issue is I can't handle machine guns without seeing where my fire is going. Most Sci-fi games and such usually allow you to SEE the ammo flying through the air, letting you aim better. Most war guns do not.

But you stick me in a game of JO, guns or sabers, and some good force, I will own. Totally. I love sitting in CTF servers, with my saber out, in the enemy base. I'll get like 4 noobs to follow me into a corner, and I will own each and every one of them . They could bring rockets, flak, repeater, it doesn't matter. I'll roll right behind them, kick them on the ground, and saber the crap out of them (or shoot them with their own gun if I was able to pull it).

I'm crap at being sneaky, therefore snipers catch me out in the open. The reason why I'm crap in bf1942 in maps like Omaha [my fav none the less].

i always stand around getting shot when i'm doing something else.

and i always do stuff like watch tv and listen to music.

i guess i dont concentrate on the game.

JK was the best for this, i could alt+tab when i was a corpse for about 15 minutes so i could get some dinner.

Uh...every gun in every game I've played has tracer bullets. Also, that's what CROSSHAIRS are for.

The crosshairs don't help, and I guess I can't see the tracers.

My reactions aren't great, so if I see something they usually get shots off at me before I can retaliate with a flak cannon.

I very much love getting in the middle of a fight. I always rush in, guns blazing. Which is why I'm awesome at games like HL2 Deathmatch and UT series, but I absolutely suck at games like CS, DoD, and America's Army.

My biggest weakness is I never think to play the games online. When I do play an offline game with my sister or some friends, I am usually way too gung-ho. I just get a machine gun and charge, but forget to vary my path. Also, my sister hates competative games, so I'm always playing against bots. I could try JKO online, but then I've had it for about two-three weeks and I'm still not that great with the saber.

I am one of those constant reloaders. Whenever there is a pause in the action, I must make sure that my clip is full. Luckily, in games like UT2k4 or JO/JA, reloading isn't necessary. But in something like ET or Battlefield 2, I sometimes am caught in fighting and I run out of bullets. Instead of retreating, reloading, and returning, I switch weapons although I have multiple clips of all my weapons. Main Rifle clip runs out? Use a pistol. Pistol clip goes empty?
Use a knife! I have gone through that scenario many times. I usually don't survive, but I take out 3 or 4 of the enemy.

Other weaknesses are panic. Sometimes if I am caught off guard, I will run and jump around instead of hiding and getting a better view. Sometimes this weakness works in my favor because I am a harder target to take out.

My weakness is direct confrontation. I'm better at sneaking around, catching loners off guard. In Natural Selection, for example, I'd spend most of the game as a skulk, running around on the cieling and through vents until I found a marine running around. Then I'd drop behind him and bite/leap him to death. Another fun tactic is to attack an isolated res node just long enough to get the marines attention, and wait for someone to check it out. Then, once they're reparing it, just run out and bite them until they drop.

The realistic ones only have tracers with the machine guns, and that's only every fifth round. Rifles, assualt rifles, and SMGs don't use tracers. Also, where the cross hair is doesn't account for things like recoil.

I tend to shoot at people who are too far away to hit and who haven't noticed me, when I SHOULD wait until I get a little closer and so I'd have more of a chance of killing them.

I'm pretty good with aiming, usually even if someone attacks me from behind I can spin around and hit them once or twice before I go down (depends on the game of course, and the weapon I'm being attacked with).

Also, I should probably try waiting for people to run out of ammo (so they gotta reload) then jump out and blast them.

Other stuff I tend NOT to do when I should is try to get above/below other players if possible on a map, especially if it's not a particularly vertical map... you usually don't expect attacks from that angle.

I don't tend to do these things and just go with instinct, tho. That's not bad all the time, but often I rush into a situation with no real strategy and just play it by ear, which doesn't always work out good.

Also I'm not a very good sniper, so I tend to stick with SMGs.

Anger.

If I'm doing well, I'm calm and cocky.
But once I start losing, I get angry and I never seem to dig myself back out of the hole.

CoD has it on all guns. I don't remember about DoD--it's been too long. And with recoil, you really won't be able to know where you're aiming anyways if the crosshairs don't tell you.

same, except i like pistols and shotguns the most
