Camping IS part of Unreal Tournament, especially SniperArenas. The idea of sniping is to find a good hiding place to hole yourself up in, and that has plenty of targets. So maps like Snipercamp, the tunnel overlooking the field, that is a key sniping position. Many people complain about that one, but it is a part of the game. The map designer made it so that you could come at them from two directions so they can't control it completely. And if you don't like them killing you there - why do you keep going back (hmmm...maybe because you want to get that position so that you can do the same thing?!?).

The only BAD camping is spawn killing - purposely placing yourself so that you shoot people as soon as they reappear. I took care of this problem by implementing Eavy Spawn Protection, which makes you ghostly for 2 seconds after spawing, BUT, it allows you to kill anyone who is trying to spawn kill you. If you sit still after respawning and get capped - that is your problem - you need to keep on the move.

The whole line of complaining about camping should be given up. It is part of the game and everyone does it at some point. I even do it throughout a game when I see a lot of easy targets - I will find a good hiding spot and start headshotting away.

So let's try and learn to play, and if we see someone getting a lot of kills from a location - take them out, and take over the location! Otherwise, stop complaining.
