Since when is defending the flag camping?

[hal]

Well obviously this person is a fool. There *is* no camping in CTF. Defending can be done in any way you choose. This person has picked up a few buzz words and doesn't understand what they are talking about.

Yes, I know I'm full of $I-IiT - but I'm inhuman dammit!

Being a camper is phun, killing campers is phun, and being a camper and killing other campers is twice more phun!!! /~unreal/ubb/html/smile.gif
and in CTF, there is no camping it's called defending the base even if u're up top sniping and *not* even moving when your flag gets stolen /~unreal/ubb/html/wink.gif

My Opinion: I like to take a little break from "run & gun" every once in a while and I stay at the base and camp ... defend... whatever you want to call it. I just like to pitch my tent with that Sniper Rifle .... jeez, I love that damned thing

A good team is one who will cover all aspects of the game to dominate!! That includes defending the flag at all cost Priority #1 #2 defend the base that means cover all openings and keep intruding enemies out! #3 Capturing enemy flag, a good teamate will give cover to the fellow teamate carrying the flag defending him at all cost!! #4 Communication, is always needed to let other teamates know of any situation that comes about .. #5 A good plan of action, is always a good way to approach attacking the enemy.. In general all teamates should rely on one another like one big family!!

Come play in my Graveyard!!!

CHRYSt, an anti-camping mutator already exists. Go to Controled Death and pick up the NBAntiCamper mutator.

Here's a bit from the readme:

This mutator checks all PlayerPositions, and if a Player hasn't moved out of a defineable radius in a defineable amount of time, he/she is 'detected' as a camper.
A 'C A M P E R !!!' message is send to the camper itself.
All other players receive a Camper-Warning message, including the name and the current location of the Camper!
All Bots will automatically search-and-destroy the Camper!!
Of course only the bots from diffrent teams, in teamgames...

You can setup the CampTime and CampRadius in an own configuration-window, found under the MOD-MenuItem.

Smooth like a rolo, cool like a polo. We commin' out wid da bad bwoy flow! Inside!

*agrees*

If someone is sniping, they are just as vulnerable to being sniped themselves.

People are such a bunch of pussies aren't they? /~unreal/ubb/html/smile.gif

Sniping is certinally fine, while you have a great LOS and can pick targets, it often means about 5 people could see you at once if they bothered to look. Also, while they have a large srea to move around, you don't.

People should open their eyes, instead of trying to introduce the "unwritten" rules of gaming.

well that mutator sounds funny...but it's also silly. It sounds like it was made for a bunch of scared little children.

It all comes down to ego which most men(okay..some women). You think you're great and skilled and when you get killed one too many times by the same person, you think of some way to make it look like the person had the upper hand on you. That's where excuses like 'campers' and 'cheaters' come about. If you're good, you're good, and if you aren't, well... just practice summore. If you learn to admit your weaknesses, then you will succeed(also applicable in real life) There is no 'the best', only the ones who strive.

And now that I've bitched enough philosophy here, I say you can camp and do whatever it takes. If they get pissed off, its their fault they piss emselves off. Camp all ya want. I encourage camping(not that I do) but its just to make the game lively. If everyone were so predicable and always went on attack, the game would be bland. It's these damn snipers and campers whatevers who make the game fun. You're running around and a bullet hits the wall beside you but no one's around --ooh the suspense.

if there is some un-written rule about fragging players while they type, well hell, that creates a new tactic for LMS. Next time I play I'll just push the Talk key and hang around until the the last person gives up and quits. I only bring this up because I was playing LMS the other night and it was down to me and this other guy and I caught him typing to a spectactor and fragged him. I still lost, though. Anybody remember the Clint Eastwood line from Unforgiven. Something about he should of armed himself.

No you where not camping. Like said before, a camper is alway's at a place not mouving at all. Waiting for someone to come is way.

And again like said before it is part of the game period.
I left playing on line because many people where calling me a camper, when I whas defending. I whas alway's mouving, going for the flag, but when someone had or flag, I whas killing the FC 95% of the time.

So the frustation whas going very hight, on those people so I left, playing UT on line.


Keep what your doing to play. You have fun that way, so don't mind those frustated player's. Any way a very skill and good player, will find a way. Or will take the fact that you are stronger in defence, then him on offense

Ya a old topic

If we're continuing the camping thread... Well, camping is when you get a Camper Warning in UT2004 Last Man Standing. Try it out and you'll know what camping exactly is...

Ha! I started reading this thread from the beginning and only just realized it's age

Haha I didn't fall for it The thread title is a dead giveaway.

Since when is defending the flag camping?

When Quake DM'ers started playing CTF mods...

All kidding aside, how come people bitch about flag defenders "camping" and no one says anything about flag whores? You know, when someone grabs the flag and spends the whole match hiding so everyone else plays Team DM instead.
