CAMPING vs. SNIPING

ok basically everyone hates campers and i do too but where do you draw the line and consider snipers, campers? and vice versa...

it's not just the gun that makes someone a sniper or a camper it's there location and range right?

idk you tell me...

Re: CAMPING vs. SNIPING

Hmm.. I tried rush-sniping last night with Betray, worked fine.
I can't stay in one spot for too long.
But say if the person is sitting in one spot the entire game or "camping" and you know he's there sniping then by all means.. pick a better route and knife his ass.

now here's a question for you, demok:

do you consider a sniper to be an executioner, or not?

Re: CAMPING vs. SNIPING

I think sniper rifles in general are lame for the following reasons:

1. It promotes camping (about 75% of the snipers you see are camping)
2. It takes very little skill
3. It's (usually) a 1 hit kill.

I always disable snipers in private matches, no matter what game.

Re: CAMPING vs. SNIPING

If you are wielding a sniper rifle, you are not camping. Because true campers sit in one spot with an automatic weapon in a corner or watching a door waiting for people to pass by. If you pass by a sniper, chances are your Assault rifle will beat his sniper/pistol at close range.

Re: CAMPING vs. SNIPING

they use snipers in the 1 position until they r told to move to another
so basicly its realistic and u wouldnt go up to an enemy sniper in real life and go u ****ing camper unless u came up behind him and did it for a laugh but i c it as realistic but also very gay

Re: CAMPING vs. SNIPING

Campers:

Assault Rifle, SMG, LMG, Shotguns, Any of those Guns - Sitting in a corner waiting for people to run past, Also Uav Jammer and sitting waiting for people to walk by.

Snipers:

If a sniper keeps moving position and picking people off then i will give them credit, if a sniper keeps sitting in one spot then just keep moving your position and snipe him back or stun and knife.

Acog user of Snipers = NOT CAMPERS. I bet me, saiint, crackle, hunter, and the rest of us all run around more then most of the other crappy LMG noob lol

Re: CAMPING vs. SNIPING

i carry i sniper with me on overkill so if theres an enemy far away i can snipe his ass. camping is annoying but it doesent mean you cant do it, maybe camping is the only option for some players because if they go out there camping spot chances are there gonna get killed a lot of times i never camp because its the same spot all the time and it would be a bit boring.
