In Response To: Camper defined (Miguel Chavez) What does and does not constitute camping really depends on the situation. For example, someone defending the base in a CTF game and sniping any enemies that stay in the open too long would not really be camping. Or in King of the Hill, one is susposed to stay in one spot and shoot anyone who gets close. On the other hand, someone who sits in a perch by the good power-ups for half of a game and kills anyone trying to make a grab for the goods would be a camper. Often in the more "realistic" themed games in the style of Counter-Strike, when the mission is to defend an objective from the enemy, staying in a good defensive position waiting for the enemy could be quite approprate. In many games (Halo or otherwise) something like the sniper rifle is best used from a stationary position where the sniper can pick off the most targets while exposing him or herself to a minimun amount of return fire. In a deathmatch-style game this could quickly turn into camping, and the camper will likely get blown away by several irritated other players. In these situations I think the best thing to do is to become familiar with all the good sniping spots in a level, stay at one spot sniping while counting to one-hundred under your breath, then move to another random good sniping spot and start counting again. This will prevent people from wising to your location, and no one will really be able to call you a camper because of it. Just be careful not to form a too predictable pattern. |
