Will you go melee or ranged?

Just a simple question asking players what weapon type they prefer.

I personally prefer both the same

 

I'll be using whatever combination is most efficient.

 

oh, i forgot to add a third answer to the poll :L dont think i can edit polls............lol

 

who said i h ad to go with either primarily. you can dual-wield, so if i find a strong sidearm i'll use both in combat.

 

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, i really should've added a third option.

 

Mainly Melee, but I plan on having a sidearm just in case.

 

Melee, cause I just feel like it would be more fun
Imagine coming down on your enemies in your wings and hammer!

 

Lifes greatest problems are solved with swords

 

i always loved taking weak and puny enemies out with a simple bullet to the head. feels so bad ass

 

I normally go range in games like these, but the sword combat looked like so much fun in the spoiler gameplay. I'll probably do a combo of both.

 

Probably ranged for myself.

 

If I can find a bow then I will probably main range. If not I'm going to stick to melee with some guns for safety

 

To be honest, I might use a mix of both, but as long as I'm not messing with ranged guys, melee for me. Just makes me feel like I'm really smashing things up xD

 

It really depends. At this point (from what we've been shown) melee weapons don't seem like that pack quite as much of a punch as ranged weapons. I hope the melee animations get more interesting, varied, and actually feel like you are hitting something. In the end I'll probably mix it up.

 

Would jumping off a cliff to stab someone at the bottom in the skull on the way down be considered range or melee?

 

If it's a semi-viable option, fisticuffs.

 

I don't even know what our options are yet.

Like others have said, going from other games ranged will probably be my best option, but melee in Starbound seems to be different. It could be fun.

 

I prefer quick switching both, from dual daggers into dual... Pistols? Two is always better than one, amirite? Maybe?

Yeah running up to someone and gutting them, then taking out their buddy with a well placed bullet 0.71 nanoseconds later is definitely satisfying.
