Always On The Move COD

farnell · 3 Jan 2011 at 11:09

Firstly I am not a great gamer so this may seem redundant to some folks.

I have just spent a lot of time playing BFBC2 and have moved onto Black Ops, pretty much the first COD game I have played (played a little MW1). Is it just me or are the ethics of this game a lot different?

Im not saying there is not campers in Bad Company and that Im not completely innocent myself but I feel pretty much every game there is someone hiding behind a door or on the floor waiting for someone to run into a room.

I try to always be on the move or have intentions to be going somewhere, is this bad COD practice or am I not alone?

You forgot to mention people sitting in corners with motion sensors up their tail ends.

i dont get any greef of anyone camping like that. i've only seen one annoying camper, and that was on firing range. he was inside the middle hut, on the computer desk in the corner.

once they kill you though they reveal themself in killcam. just go back to em and finish em off.

a good tactic is to use the concussion or flashbang grenades.

This is also my gripe with games of this kind. The focus has been taken away from speed of movement, reaction time and how well you can twitch aim and track a target. It's now all about seeing the other guy first. It takes few bullets to kill, iron sights take away precision, and the pace is slow. The results - randomness, luck and lame tactics.

Love getting campers on that map.

Instead of concussion nades or flashbangs give the fart bombs a blast they work a treat.

I think what I need to do is start looking for these people rather than trying to get my kills in open play, if that is the correct analogy.

I used the killcam for snipers in BF so I should really play COD as if everyone is a sniper

i'll unlock those later

i didn't think they were that worth it, but if they will drive a sniper out of his nest like a rat up a drain pipe i'm all for it.

i keep constantly on the move, and my KD ratio (not that it matters) is usually around 20 kills to 10-13 deaths. going from battlefield 2 to this was a big step for me.

if someone is blatantly camping in the corner and you watch the kill cam, go STRAIGHT back there and shoot him in the face. you know where he's hiding

seeing as a lot of campers are mostly kids (from the abuse i get), they dont change their tactics. they stay in the same place.

on Array, there's some barrels just outside of a building, and yesterday i was playing with someone who almost certainly was going there everytime they respawned, it was rinse and repeat. i guess its just the tactic they play.
