What perk class do you play most

I find using an Xbow against a Fleshpound as Medic a fun challenge on hard. The Crossbow doesn't do enough damage to instakill it, but it doesn't do enough damage to instakill you. But 2 shots to the head while it's after you and a third to the body is all you need.

I find it fun when people go sharpie and use an M14. I laugh at them and pull out my Xbow and kill the scrakes so they don't eat their noob asses.

And today i got a kill on a Fleshpound at about 250m with 150ping with a crossbow. I never felt more proud. SS by the way, but i couldn't be Fu

I play mostly start of with commando, and jump over to firebug after that, sometimes i go medic though, or support.

In order:
1, Firebug
2, Medic
3, Commando
4, Support
5, Sharpy
6, Berzerk
7, Demo

It pretty much depends on the rest of the team: If there's two players of one perk i try to choose another one. (except from firebug then, since it's the best thing ever on FF =D (If everyone are firebugs ofc^^))

I'm usually sharp, but when I have a growing team I pick whatever we're lacking to help balance our abilities out. I'm level 5+ in basically everything. Only thing I don't play a lot of is medic.

And no, I don't use the M14, ever, for two reasons: it means I can't carry a crossbow, which is the weapon that exemplifies the class role, and it's less effective as a battle rifle than the SCAR, so if the team needs a guy with a battle rifle, I just switch to commando.

in order, my fav classes are:

Sharpshooter (for taking down fleshpounds/scrakes on Hard or Suicidal difficulty)

Support (for additional carryweight/ability to carry an AA12, an M32 and either a katana or pipe bombs, and for holding doorways)

Commando (if the team doesn't have a commando with a microphone, they need one, and I'll play as one, especially on levels like Farm or Bedlam. Very effective for keeping a team afloat if everyone sucks too much to take down crawlers and the like)

Demolitions (I tend to play when I have a team full of commandos and sharpshooters, or just feel like blowing **** up. Good for killing patriarch.)

Bezerker (good class for starting the first couple waves and conserving cash, use no ammo, keep armor if you have any left, and sell your weapon when moving up to another class)

Medic (Not /quite/ my least favorite class... the extra running speed means that if my team -really- sucks, I can usually pull a monty python and finish a round on my own. Always carry an xbow and a katana--MP7 is for chumps)

Firebug (I hate firebug, I really do... it's the one class that really depends on the rest of the team to finish things off, because there's no stopping power or decap to the flamethrower)

probab all roughly equally, except SS which i never play cos i dont like the m14 much.
Id rather take med with the xbow, and often with katana too so i rarely play berker come to think about it.
but since i'm working all my levels up together i would be playing them all - if and when they are maxed out i'm not sure but suspect i would play med, support and demo the most, depending on what fitted the team best i guess..

Then use a Lever Action like a real man.


That aside...

Firebug - Flamethrower, m79 (most played)
Support Specialist - Hunting Shotgun, AA12, Katana (OP'd to some extent but I love the feel of the Hunting Shotgun)
Berserker - Axe, Ak-47 (I don't know, just the Axe is awesome in slow motion, especially on FP decaps)
Sharpshooter - Lever Action, Dual 9mms, Dual Handcannons (Classic cowboy setup that actually works)
Commando - Ak-47, Scar, Katana (Nothing better than 2 crowd-control weapons and an ammo saver)
Medic - Medigun, Crossbow (basic support) Medigun, Handcnnon, AK-47 (my typical loadout)
Demoman - Pipebombs, M79, M32 (your average demo in every way)

From first to last based on enjoyment level.

I probbaly play the worst demo you've ever seen in your life.

I NEVER PLAY:
SS
Zerker
DEMO
Firebug
Commando

I play:
Medic
Support


I have a different type of style, and some trusting friends :p
I have medic-gun
and I get leftover money from allies and buy random 3 or 4 tier weapons
I sit back healing from a range, and when an ally runs out of ammo, he runs up to me, and I drop a weapon for him, pick up his spent one, and between waves "refill" his ammo, for the next outta ammo person. It's a system of trust :p
