I am entirely nuetral. The game is going to be a tps that is objective based. Obviously they are going to be camping inside of their base, which we will be seiging. The game will have explosives and stuff, which are usually used as anti-camping mechanics in video games.
Didn't seem like you knew the difference since you just threw the term camper out there. You can defend a position from a static location simply because it is a good defensive position. You don't have to move to be a good defender especially if the position allows you to disrupt an enemy advance (If you've played anything like WW2OL you'll know what I mean).
You're obviously wrong and you should try to 360 no scope while running around the map. Because, you know, skeelz.
OK, if you and I need to continue this side conversation, feel free to PM me. I don't agree with you, and on this topic, I doubt I ever will, so we should probably just move along. However, if it means that much to you, I will entertain this conversation away from this thread. Cheers.
I don't think his statement was even offensive to the claim before. He basically just said you can defend a position from a location well sometimes. The guy before was debating how big of scum he thought campers were, and I think tornadium is talking about how effective camping is at holding a position. It's hard to root a convo like this in the ground and make sense of it right now. I think we need to know more about what the game is going to play like before we make adjustments to make the game non-campy. I'm sure there will be mechanics that will discourage corner camping as a space marine.
What? Camping has always been a joke term thrown around because no one in their right mind actually calls someone defending a good position a camper.
I agree with not having a kill-cam, but rather some info on the person who killed me like name, weapon used and the damage numbers.
In Arena FPS (like UT or Quake), someone sitting in one spot waiting for cheap opportunity shot is obviously a camper. It's usually unfun and ineffective method as well, cosndiering how fast paced action is in these games. HOWEVER, it's rediculous throwing term like "camper" in semi-realistical/tactical shooters where defenders can hold a defensible position/objective and entrench themselves. What are they supposed to do? Bunny hop? Run around like maniacs?
kill-cams harm tactical ability, though I would like a % of the person's accuracy and how much dmg was done and with what. This will help ID bell-0curve cheaters.
