Have you played hardcore headquarters on Call of Duty 4?
There is no camping that I see. If you call setting a position and defending it camping then yes, it is camping, but it isn't too bad. It happens in every game and is worse in Halo because you cannot counter act it due to the fact that they have the only power weapons.
If a team is dominating you with vehicles then what can you do? Make a mad dash for the only rocket launcher only to find that some one on the other team already has it. Or can you just spawn with a rocket launcher that has two shots?
If a team is dominating you with the vehicles, then your team failed at map control. I realize that you are using an example, but I can't think of any vehicular based maps in Halo 3 with just one Rocket Launcher (barring Sandtrap and Rat's Nest, but on the former you're using one of the 2 Lasers to destroy the vehicles instead, and the latter-Warthogs do not control the map. If you lose control of the inside, that's a problem). On Avalanche, both teams have a Rocket, and it's fairly easy to get to, even if you lose maps control. Barring Rockets, you can go off the Man Cannon to get the Spartan Laser to help combat against vehicles. Also, a player that's just spawned has 2 new Frag Grenades, perfect for flipping over vehicles. If you pick up Plasmas, they work wonderfully for killing Warthogs. Plus, you've always got the option to hijack.
There's so many different ways to take out vehicles in Halo 3. If you're being destroyed, then you probably lost map control fairly early on and lost all of the power weapon rushes (however, they respawn, so that's key).
