And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

Choosing camo doesn't complement any playstyle.


Being stealthy... Staying far away from enemies...

I was going to say the EXACT same thing.

I defend it because it's fun
It's not fun out sniping a terrible opponent who proceeds to choose camo and snipe you because you couldn't see him. Something which I can do nothing about or be wary of (I can't not poke my head out in case he chose camo)

Yet, we'll still win because we're not stubborn and do not refuse to exploit the game to win.
Then why are you still terrible?

No good player uses camo. I'm out, This thread is dumd and OP is dumderer.

k bye

I'm better than 95% of the population with a 2 K/D and a 70% W/L, so have fun generalizing

It seems that you're mad.

Understandable.

I would be mad too if I couldn't understand half of the words the other person was saying.

Finally, you give in.
Paragon is right:
-Jetpack dominates vertical spaces.
-AL, Sprint, and Evade dominate CQC.
-Camo dominates stealth.
-Hologram is an all-rounder.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

It is for kids that can't snipe from cover or while moving. I'm glad you can't do it anymore.

It is extremely easy and anyone can do it. It doesn't make them good for using the easiest method.

It's like asking "What's wrong with camping the lift room with Armor Lock, Shotgun, and Sword?"

Answer it's easy kills for kids that can't get them any other way.

Imagine you are being assaulted by a gang in a dark alley. You have a machine gun and a cheese knife. You say "Oh, mowing them down would be so easy, I'll use the knife."

Thus you are a pro.

it encourages camping, so you get less support from your sniper

I will respectfully disagree. Whenever I do it, especially in slayer, I get lots of kills, very few deaths.

my friends who snipe are much more use full when (for example on asylum) they have top ring control with sniper then when they sit back on sniper spawn camoed. from top ring they can see all the enemies re-spawn points and quickly move to take them out. camoed on sniper spawn all they can do is shoot across the bridge

Please...stop getting butthurt when I noscope you from the passenger seat of the vehicle I'm riding in :D

Camo sniping is just a cheap tactic that only people who aren't good with a sniper use. It's for people who need protection because they can't hold themselves in a 1v1 situation. They need the camo in hopes that the enemy can't hit them and will be able to get away unscathed. It's really only a problem on bigger maps where they can hide practically ANYWHERE. (Such as Hemorrhage, Highlands, and open maps) CQ-maps aren't as bad as getting ambushed by an invis-sniper is escapable if they miss and doesn't need to be retraced. The CQ playstyle can tell you if they're close with the radar-jamming. Bigger maps just makes it nearly impossible to find them if they move even just a couple of feet.

Nothing is wrong with it.

I came back.

Paragon renegade, are you a better sniper/player than me. Since halocharts says othewise, I will go check. Oh wait, the sites not around anymore, Your point is invalid.

I dont need to actually 1v1 you to tell you that I am better or that you made up a fake statistic.

REally you better go talk to it's scope then. I think he used camo against some of obey's guys and went 39-2? And he is in the top 2% in this game. Generalizing to state that anyone who uses camo is bad is a really bold statement and I could easily proove you wrong.

  • 01.08.2012 12:34 PM PDT

Only bad players support choosing camo from spawn because they're the only ones who need to use it.

Seriously pick any site with skill tracking and search "ProsmianMan"; I'm better than most, but much worse than the best.
