I love camping

Wait, Wait Wait!

It's not called Camping it's called Defending. There is nothing wrong with camping.. or Defending as I call it, I do it ALL the time and if someone try's to camp you, All you gotta do is "CounterCamp".

CounterCamp - The process of defending a postion outside a campers Killzone in hopes they move toward you instead of you moving toward them.

Yeah but all in all I never took all this Halo Jumping, Camping, Hardscopeing, whatever busniess seriously, I'm there to have fun and besides it's all about your Connection Strength in these games. THAT'S what is most important.

And while were on the subject; It's not called the noob tube It's called the Pro Pipe

Yeah, ProPipe

^__^

FINALLY! someone who understands the values of the Pro Pipe.

OT: I love to camp, I hate jumpers, I would like to see anyone who can jump while running sideways and still hit me

Camping is pretty obnoxious.

You can shout 'legitimate strategy' all you want, everyone still hates you.

Everyone on the other team, at least - as long as you're camping in a way that helps your side win the objective, you're being credit to team.

Plus, if a couple years playing MW2 taught me anything, it's that this is really the only way to play:


IRL camping is pretty awesome too.

People who hate camping don't understand FPS tactics.

Camping is a legitimate strategy because it puts the Camper at a disadvantage, so long as his opponents have any sort of competency.

I've never really went camping in real life. Don't think I'd enjoy the mosquitoes anyway.

In video games, it doesn't bother me. If you're a sniper, then I don't think anyone's even allowed to complain in the first place. It's slightly annoying when a person literally stays in the same spot for the entire match, but it also amounts to easy kills for me (grenades are amazing).
I don't camp for extreme extended periods of time when not sniping, but I'll do it if it helps me/my team. I also [/i]expect[/i] everyone to camp to some degree when playing defense on an objective based game and kills don't directly benefit the team.

*Please don't hang me battlefield player for not knowing what it's called.

That's ok, neither do the rest of us playing on Hardcore ^_^

I don't play CoD anymore, but I used to run with a few guys who were so good they would scare me into a paranoia where in I would try to hide from them. If someone accidentally bumps into my knife or my 9mm, does that really make me a camper?

In BF:BC & BC2 when playing defense on Rush mode, I usually take and hold position. I dont really think you can count that as camping in the tactical sense. On offense, I try to push the line.

I hate the argument that in real life you would hide. Yes, yes you would in real life obviously. But in case you haven't figured it out yet, this is a VIDEO GAME, not real life. Nothing you do in the game will affect you in real life. Camping in video games is a stupid strategy that sucks the fun out of it. We play video games to have fun, not sit in one spot and hope someone walks by.

I normally kill camper either by trial-and-error or by being the better player.
As for other camping

I would say I love it. I spent three weekends this year camping in the snow, one of which was in gale force winds, so we built and slept in an igloo.
Its kind of like metation for me, I guess.

Real life: Pretty fun, do it often, good memories.

Games: Boring. So very, very boring and unsatisfying. Sitting in a corner for five minutes and killing two people isn't as good as running the front, raping the opposing team's defenses and winning the game for everyone, all the time getting more kills and being more helpful.

Why yes, I do play TF2.
