Poll: Which is better for first person shooters?  [closed]
Run-and-gun (arcade style mindless blasting):  64%

Squad-based tactical (die in 2 shots):  36%

Total Votes: 11

I see how squad based tactical shooters benefit from realism, but personally I find Run-and-gun shooters alot more fun. I usually care more about bad guy blasting than realism. Also I don't really like games like Rainbow six 3 because you die in only a couple shots. That makes the game unforgiving and in my opinion very frustrating. That's just what I think.

It is fun when they mix it up there is run and gun elements but with the tactics of squad based games i like to have to hide behind stuff and pop heads of guys then rush in clear out the remainder and in multi having less health creates more teamplay.

I like a nice mix, like the one Halo has. It's science makes you understand how the Chief can take so many plasma bolts, and believability is a major factor in immersion. Trust me.

Yeah I like when there's some explanation of how you can take so many hits.
