Post: Is camping a bad thing?

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I want your opinions. Do you think it's okay to camp? I've made an account especially for camping and my K/D is 4.36. 40xx kills and 9xx deaths. I'm an experienced player and I created this account to see how well I am going to do when camping. The mode that I play mostly is Free For All. I had only 3 games where I actually ended up with 30 kills 0 deaths, and unfortunately I never got a nuke. I've rarely got any replies saying that I'm a camper for some reason o.o.... So... If I were to be in your game and you saw my PSN "HappyCamper7x", and if I were to win with the score of 30-2, would you be pissed off from my camping strategy?

Camping isn't really the style for CoD. CoD games are by no means tactical nor do they really require skill or teamwork. Socom for instance is a team orientated game. You never here people on Socom talk about nor give two shits about K/D or W/L. Most CoD from CoD 4 or WaW aren't used to playing with people like that.

OR

Of course the guy you kill is a crying bitch.

To be honest, camping is a term that everyone uses, and no one understands.

If im using my HBAR and im crouched behind cover, aiming down my sights of a known choke point and i get 4 kills, than i move somewhere else, thats not camping.

If I happen to be in a building looking out below me and i see 3 guys rushing by and i pick them off, thats not camping.

finding a good spot where yoou know people will rush by and taking advantage of that, is not camping.

camping doesnt piss me off, i have more bullshit things to get mad at like commando and getting tubed across the map.

I get that you bought the game, and you can play it all you want, but it comes to a point when the game feels so broken because of these exploits.

So no camping isnt a bad thing, its a smart way to play the game, simple as that.

Well if you are in a spot where people can kill you and you are just holding something with an LMG than i dont think that is camping but if you are in a spot where you need to get 3 ppl to try to kill you cuz ur a bitch in the cornor with ppl bitching than you a camper lol

Camping is only annoying when a ton of people do it because then you would run for cover and BOOM you get shot.

k/d doesnt mean anything and laugh at people who believe so. it is annoying to know that u got killed but u go back there and embarass them using danger close with an rpg or sneak there with c4.if they get me once, not a chance they would a second time in that place. of course, u might be a skilled camper going from place to place and i wouldnt complain but is ceap anyway, plus i see your psn name.

No camping isn't.

Camping adds a challenge to the game, if a camper is holding down an area a run and gunner must use their intelligence to flank them and take them out via an alternate route.

K/D itself doesn't mean anything, i can go and play on a negative k/d account and it makes no difference to how i play.
I aim to keep my K/D as high as possible because it adds abit of challenge to the game, im naturally defensive(although i rush on s&d) so my K/D is higher than players that choose to constantly push forward. It by no means indicates that i am better than them.

I believe K/D in my case shows how effective i am as a player because i play 99% kill dependent modes such as Core TDM and S&Awesome face and its close to my Win/Loss ratio too.

In this game camping just means anything where you are defensive, if ive ran around the whole map and take cover behind a box and kill someone im still called a camper.

If im playing TDM i will go to a building with lots of players in the area, plant a claymore to watch my back and then kill people whilst moving between the windows of the building.
If i get Special naded, or UAV shows someone nearby il retreat to a corner with akimbo rangers and wait for the person trying to revenge kill me to come up, people class the whole shotgun/corner thing as the worst kind of camping but in my opinion if i 100% know your coming to kill me when im on a killstreak then im going to do it to guarantee myself the kill. The only other option is running down myself and make a situation that was 100% in my favour, a 50-50 shootout.

at the end of the day play how you want if you purchased the game, theres so much bs in this game that camping should be the last of your problems(MLC, N00btubes, OMA, Danger Close, Overpowered Killstreaks etc).

it's your game play how you want not how some snot nosed 13 year wants you to play, i really dislike the ones that rush round with shottys and knives. i dislike the noob tubers, but at the end of the day i just get on with it and do not tell them to change the way they play.
