I've never minded campers.. you just hop n' spray

all the support classes stay back and supress the enemy while the assault classes go in for the caps. but yeah an MG rusher? haha you dont see that everyday.
I agree with the thought of legitimate strategy....
there are three spots that need camping , one is Avalanche upstairs looking at the church roof and the
window across the plaza, two is Donner in the field
once under control, the third is KALT in the Sewer ,an
MG camps and clears stretches of sewer until his
team goes by then advances when they clear the
next turns and hold that section... Sometimes its awhile before someone comes by you then they have to successful at the next turn for the Mg to move up... The sum of team is not one

I think camping makes the game interesting. If You can clear a spot for your team. And if you get killed by a camper then you can go into revenge mode and hope that they are still there. Advantage: you.

Well campers have 2 disadvantages.
-No element of surprise. If you run into a room carefully, you can see a camper faster than he can see you. Considering average human reflexes, you have the advantage of killing camper before he/she kills you.
-Lack of Offensive. Like i always said, Offense is the best Defense no matter how you look at it. If you sit back and camp, your team is going nowhere and all you are going is racking up death ratios. The enemy will eventually flush campers with grenades.
__________________________________________
For new players, camping is usually a common tactic applied because of disadvantage of a unfamilar map. So by camping they can see where the enemy is coming from and sooner or later they'll learn to attack.
For Rifleman, snipers and Machine Gunners. Rifleman is bolt-action and semi-automatic. Look at from that angle, would you go face to face with a group of Automatics? The best you can do is take down two and the rest make you into Cheese.
Rifleman do not go head on and require a bit of " defensive camping." Rifleman go in offensive as a support with the automatics on the same team. They are hard to assault alone. Rifleman in my opinion is the defensive class, going into a small room with the enemy strafing you isn't the best situation you want to find yourself in. Conclusion, as long as the rifleman displace every once in a while to get a better shot, i do not call that camping.
As for snipers and Machine gunners, well machine gunners you can't expect him to go running around ramboing. His role is to set up his machine gun and mow enemies down. Snipers are hard to assault alone, since no scope does not give the sniper a crosshair and pistol is useless at medium-long range. Camping is merely a defensive tactic.
So think about it....Don't always hate on campers.

Yeah, weapons shich are made to camp with gotta camp, but I don't think that assault and support for an example shouldn't camp.. They are better in direct battle
