Title: Melee or long range weapons?
Post by: Tupin on March 18, 2009, 08:19:16 PM
I personally prefer melee weapons, especially when the only available long-range weapons are bad. I'd rather risk running right up to the enemy and take them out in a few hits rather than waste hundreds of rounds of ammo.

Gunblade.

It mostly depends on the situation, but I prefer Melee Weapons to Long-Range Weapons.

How about both? Long ranged weapons to take out some of the enemies and melee weapons to finish them off.

If not, I would go with the long ranged weapon. It'd be best to hit as many people as possible along with the factor I can hide so they don't known where it is coming from or where I am.


Example; Rambo with a bow

I'm more of a long-range type of guy, though my aim is typically bad.

I've always been fond of melee weapons. There's just something about getting your victim up close while they see~

Depends on situation/game.

In MMX4, for example, I prefer Zero's saber because X is kinda lame when an enemy is close.

...Do grenades count as long ranged?...>,>...

...In most cases, Long ranged > Melee because you can take out the guy from afar and laugh as you watch the amazing ragdoll physics...har har...

I'm really into guns. I didn't even have to think about it, I would rather have a nice .45 in my hands than any barbaric close-range device.

Are you ever going to stop with the stupid ellipsis gimmick? It makes your posts annoying to read and it also makes you look like a dumbass.

As much as I hate dealing with ammo, when I play D&D I usually don't like to be right up close next to the enemy, especially if it's one who could probably kill me, since I never play a tank.  Like right now, I'm a druid, and I prefer casting a flaming sphere or sending my eagle familiar named ╔ (pronounced "Elbow Pipe") to deal damage instead of using my sickle.

I like guns. period. Something about a nice Magnum or AR15 in my hands always gets me pumped. Plus I'm not a bad shot. Usually right near the middle in a shooting range.

Eh, probably melee.  Depends on the game, if there's some powerful magicks ready to use, then I'm unleashing hellfire from a distance, though.
