Camping is just a sniping spot that no one is good enough to remove you from. Seems like the real skill should be in killing them.
Some tend to get pissed when someone else kills them repeatedly; from experience I've found it's more that they're pissed that they didn't think of doing the same thing first. I'm perfectly fine with having the tables turned and others doing the same thing to me--it just tells me they're a smart player that has learned from another smart player. That, and turning the tables again will be extra nice.
More appropriate to the topic, a good sniping spot is anywhere where the element of surprise gives you a good shot on a non- or slow-moving target, or basically a target that doesn't move in such a way as to avoid being easily hit/killed, with or without the added caveat that you can escape easily should your existence be threatened--this is probably more applicable to real-life snipers than Halo snipers, since the latter can simply respawn. In theory, anyone can be in a good sniper spot, which I imagine some of the better players don't like to admit, thinking they're God's gift to long-range ballistic kills. Even "bad" players will have a good run in a good spot.
A good SNIPER is someone who can make a kill in a bad sniping spot, and is more limited in the breadth of players that can claim they are such. I don't claim to be a good one or a bad one, though maybe I will say I'm better than average.
That's a good explanation.But I made the topic to talk about good spots to snipe from,not an argument about what true snipingis.Different people have different ideas,and the same goes for what is sniping.
