I Don't get pissed at campers on the OTHER team, I get pissed at campers on MY team. I usually play game types which require an ACTIVE role out of fellow team mates like Domintation. The other team will have 2 flags and I'll be stuck on the team that has 1 flag and 3 or 4 of my fellow team mates just sit back and HIDE OR SNIPE, sometimes no where near the flag we have. Thats the camping that I can't stand. As far as campers with heartbeat I can't stand them either since the Ninja Perk is broken on Xbox 360 and you still show up on the heartbeat sensors fairly often.

you said 'camping is a player hiding at the expense of everything, even killing other players,' which is dumb. if i interpreted it wrong, learn to express yourself better. it sounds to me that you're just trying to justify your own lame playstyle and are mad that most people do, in fact, think you are a lame pile of lame. again- deal with it.

god i don't know why i bother with this cesspool of a subforum sometimes. go back to whining about how people whine too much, pls, i'll leave you alone.

Stop trying so hard to be too cool for Anandtech, it's not working.

Of course it's going to be at the expense of killing others if no one passes by the camper in his chosen site. How did you manage to interpret it another way. Scratch that, I don't care.

Check out my KDR (DivideBYZero69, PSN). It's positive, unlike most that are under 1.0. Could I do that if camped? No. Troll in another sub forum. kthx.

In mw2, with uav and hb sensor. Campers really aren't a problem at all.

right, me pointing out the stupidity of your statements is 'trolling.' as opposed to you trying to brag about your CoD stats, which is just outright pathetic, no buzzword needed...

the point of camping is cheap kills. if you play with people who camp and don't even kill anyone, hurrah, you play with the dumbest people on earth. i'm not positive that you even know what 'camping' is. staying in one spot for the entire game and doing nothing is called 'afk' in these parts, genius.

right, someone disagreeing with your topic is only disagreeing to be "cool" for anandtech.

gotcha...

and yes you can get a positive K/D ratio by camping very easily.

I'm not posting stupidity, it's opinion. On the other hand you're just posting flaming shit. I 'play with the dumbest people on earth' for example? Did you just pull that out of your corn hole? Together with the epic gem 'i'm not positive that you even know what 'camping' is' I'm sure you're just an angry little man who needs a hug.

I couldn't care less about you, or your parts. 'Genius' :rolleyes:

Why do you people get so angry about a video game. You didn't make it or have anything to do with its development. You're just a pawn clicking a mouse. Stop getting so mad over nothing.

Actually continue. It's fun to read angry males on the internet.

I say, in a competitive genre (like FPS), if a tactic is valid and legal, then do what it takes to win. Bonus points for each person you get whining about said tactic. :p
