Camping Options

[DIESEL]

It's the players like Troop, Doodoo, Stone & DEUCE that kill the server with their ignorance.

please explain what you mean CY?

I'd like to hear ML's comments on camping. It's no wonder shes shyd away from this thread for two pages.


Just messin w/ ya ML.

I think camping is fine in short quantities. Gets annoying being killed over and over though.

You're right Larry. When I started reading, I was surprised that my name wasn't mentioned, considering our discussions in the past. I don't want to argue with you guys if possible. Can't we all just get along?

Because of the criticism, I've tried to add some running and gunning to my game. One of my problems for MOHAA is the mouse keyboard only control setup. When I first started playing games (Hexen II, Quake, Unreal, F-15, etc.), I used a joystick (Panther XL). I've had to transition into the keyboard mouse thing. Ramos has taught me new spawnkilling spots, and I've tried to add them to my game as well. Great players like Diesel and Cypher keep getting high scores because they know how to "harvest" their victims: they know the maps so well. I've got to keep practicing and specing. Sometimes when I'm getting whupped, camping is my only way to keep positive scores, and you know I'm a stat junkie. I'll never be as good as Cypher, but I love playing this game.

PS: Last night about 4:00 am, I got into a pretty good 3 on 3 fight with BLK and Barg0d in SF, my main camping map, and I held my own in an almost total running and gunning fight. I just need to practice more!

I noticed you running and gunning last night. A friend of mine at work is having a hard time with the transition between playstation controller and pc. Plays a very good MOH on playstation but cannot for the life of me get him to play pc. I WILL eventually get him on the server.

I for the life of me cannot understand how anyone plays a first-person shooter using anything but a mouse/keyboard combo.

speaking of which,

remember the old days of Doom and Hexen? Using the alt key to strafe, not being able to look up? damn...

So Mona, is running and gunning your ultimate goal?

My thoughts exactly.. the difference between me playing console games and PC is the precision and freedom of movement that the mouse/ keyboard give. Also the fact that a monitor resolution kicks the crap out of my non hd tv.

i wont even lie....camping is fun (once in a while) when im getting owned i try and guess the way they are going to go and set up camp...... just sometimes its better to be light camping, and keep moving. i like it when people camp on the second story balcony by the alley....and i get killed allot but, picking them off is very orgasmic.

As Cypher has informed me, I have limited talent. Yes, I want to be a better runner and gunner; however, I like to snipe (camp) Remagen. That map bores me, and the only thing that I can do, is play the sniper's nest. You R&G's should try it sometime. You have right and left flank attacks, and fighters try to sneak up behind. Otherwise, I wouldn't play Remagen. Southern France is a camper's paradise. I guess it's too much to ask for respect, how about toleration?

I despise Remagen. But if you ever get a chance, jump on brp's server really quick and play that map. soooo many noobs, and it's easy to rack up 30 kills or so in a few minutes. just be careful cuz brp guys are pretty quick to accuse people of cheating w/ even speccing them (read brp frenchschoolgirl).

and i tolerate campers! they just piss me off when i get killed

You're a polite writer, and I like that. I've been playing on the BRP servers. You're right, a great place to practice. There I don't care about stats. I think that's part of my problem with the R&G greats; I hate getting slaughtered. Like I said, I need more practice.

ML

[holden_caulfield]

just go crazy. stats are reset in may anyways (and they haven't been working lately).

When i first started, about 20 weeks ago, i played under the name geewhz. I think i ended with something like a 1/5 kill ratio. Not like it's much better now, but still, it was sad... lol

The BRP server may have invented camping. Hell, you'll find BRP members in Southern France hiding behind the white couches in SF and squatting up on the dressers in the church in DV, etc., etc -- all over the place in every map. Goodfellas is nothing like that.

Hell, I like "resting" occasionally, like in Algiers up on the roof, under the moonlight, sipping my beer at home and taking a few pop shots as they come up -- especially since that map comes after Stalingrad where it's so manic. And there are built in kill spots on all the maps -- call 'em camping (I guess it depends on how long you stay there) -- but they still total up as you rotate through them. I don't have any problems with people who choose to fight that way -- and really wish they didn't with me if I choose to crouch and wait a bit to shoot them -- but I'm sure they do.

The other day on MOB Goodfellas there were a several players complaining about the camping and I typed them this: "Maybe you girls should find a server where camping is illegal, but bitching is encouraged!" Oh well, think about it.
