Re: Whats wrong with camping?

OK for those who say you wouldn't run/rush in real life = well you would if you had umlimited respawns without any plenty for dying!

 

It's a game not real life, most comments here seem to be directed at MW2. I hate camping in that game it feel more acceptable in tactical shooters like Ghost Recon where you can move about tactically.

On any platform you play, there are people who complain about gamers who tend camp in First Person Shooters. Being a fan of war movies and knowing people (and family) in the military I personally see no problem with camping and consider it a very legitimate tactic.

 

Put it this way, if you told a sniper that camping is for noobs, he/she would tell you up front he'd pop you on the field before you even knew he was there. Camping happens in real life, and in fact camping is the most used tactic in todays warzones. Honestly, find me a soldier that runs around like a headless chicken in Iraq.

 

Is it just kids who hate campers or what?


 

Play the game the way you want, if some don't like it and start with the "Camper" or "Noob tube" verbal diarrhea tough, stick a few claymore down and really infuriate them until they "Rage quit"...yeah that's right, we have another saying to add to COD online unofficial rule book of whats supposedly not allowed by YOU on COD games from people you killed......"rage quit"....i don't know how many time i heard it last night when a host leaft mid game.

Re: Whats wrong with camping?

Camping.. Ahh the memories. Nice roaring fire, beers, steaks, bacon, burgers the works ahh I love camping. Oh not that camping? :smileysad:


Base camping is all I hate in games, ala Killzone 2 for instance. Any other form of camping is fine by me, if its a spawn nade being camped on then fine, use an alternative one or flank the campers, if its say a sniper on say MAG then he's pretty flipping useless if he stays in the same place because he wont last long when I hunt him down knowing exactly where he is :smileywink:

The trick is you control a camper if your lucky and smart enough. Flush them out and flank them it all adds to the fun I think :smileyhappy:

As long as you can spawn safely on the map and have a chance without dying instantly then its all gravy baby! But if like in Killzone where you cannot escape then its no fun dying after you spawn every time.

But not everyone does, it's a choice and style of play, some like being slow, quiet, patient and getting accurate kills, others like to run about flushing people out; I like to do both.

 

 

There are a lot more headless chickens online than there are campers.

Re: Whats wrong with camping?

People camp in real life for one simple reason. There is no respawns in real life.

In a game you have no excuse you have infinite lives.
