For me, it's either camp and have fun or run around like a headless chicken, get frustrated, and quit.

Annoys me the most in deathmatch shooters, but it's valid in more strategic shooters (such as BF.)

Camping is just as much a part of shooters, as any other strategy is.

Deal with it.

lol, its not a strategy , flanking and outplaying in various ways is STRATEGY ... camping is just cowardly way to get some frags and make your team loose . and thats the only way complete noobs enjoy the game !

like the camper has the skill to remain hidden,dodge grenades and kill bargers, non-campers should have the skills to flush em out or kill them where they hide or simply avoid their LOS..camping is a strategy,and everybody should learn to deal with it.

The thing is, I play with my headphones on, so when I hear footsteps, check my radar and see no friendlies nearby, I hide. Naturally the enemy runs past me and I shoot them in the back and of course I'm called a camper seconds after that. Thing is I don't sit and wait for somebody to come by, I just use the opportunity when it presents itself. After that I continue moving.shikovi4ik
this is exactly how i play.i can so relate to this. :):):)

Seriously I think that it is ok. I mean what about snipers, or if your pinned down for all you Kill:death who don't like to get killed. Another reason: In real life soldiers camp because they only have one life not millions or whatever that we have in games. I think its ok to camp unless you can't be killed because of a glitch or something.

Yeah it was a big problem with the MW games. At least you could use the frontlines mod for the first MW that gave you spawn protection and logical spawn!

I don't likecampers because, imagine if everyone did it? How boring would that be? So basically you have to have players that are willing to run around and look for kills to fuel a campers kills.

In some circumstances, I totally understand it, if playing CoD for example, playing demolition or sabotage and protecting your base or if your sniping - obviously you cant run round with a sniper unless your a beast at quick-scoping.

But on Team Deathmatch... I just see it as a boring loop-holedue tobad reactions at killing people.

It depends on the game.. If its TF2 and/or Counter Strike source (being CT in a bomb planting map/T in a hostage map) then your suppose to defend the objectives.

Anything the game itself supports you can use to win. As long as you don't hack or cheat everything is allowed imo. But then again, camping doesn't get you anything VS good players.

what I hate the most when I play BC 2 is when a sniper or a GL guy camp next to ammo and Health Box its annoying and lame I wish that DICE do something ( like if someone stayed in the same place for more than 1 minutes he get marked !
