GoldenEye Will Blow You Up For Camping

[Sixties Spidey]

Hah! No kidding? That actually seems like a pretty damn good idea. I wonder if that means other games will start using this as well. It'd be hilarious to see the inevitable Modern Warfare 3 use this. That would bring those 12 year old fucksticks to cry in agony.

THANKS FOR THAT I CANT READ WITHOUT CAPS LOL.
Whether or not it's compulsory is irrelevant, it's a terrible execution of a good idea.

Its all Cruise Control baby

And hmmm... maybe. But it just sounds like a fun party mode to me. If I wanted a more hardcore experience I'd just not play it

 

[Jared]

So many unhappy campers will be crying right now XD

 

[Bobzer77]

someone has to do it, ok, I'll do it.

I will not deny, it is an annoying strategy however like any strategy it has draw backs and most people are too stupid to exploit them.

I'm not a camper but I hate it when people get pissed off at campers, it is a legitimate strategy and a good one at that.

Wow, after reading the comments it seems like half these people have never even played Goldeneye or realize it is on Wii only. In the tons of hours I spent on Goldeneye, I never once even remember seeing anyone snipe...

I approve of this. Also, I read the comments as well. They probably never played it either. Or realized its a Wii Exclusive

Again, I agree with this. Played the original, and there were only like, 2 instances I can remember sniping, and that was in the single player story. But still, 3 seconds is a bit of punishment, isn't it? I remember the watch laser, and it took a bit of precision. If they really want to make the game better, they should remove the Golden Gun. Yeah, it only had one shot, but if someone got a lucky hit, that was it for you. I can remember tons of times my friends would whore Golden Gun and get that lucky shot and win. It'll be the Halo Beam Sword and Gears Chainsaw all over again.

I wouldn't say get rid of it...but make a mode out of it. Man with the Golden Gun Mode for example. Then just deathmatch,team etc

Like everyone else is saying 3 seconds is waaaay too short. And campers could presumably just shuffle backwards and forwards very slightly to stop it.

There should be options for it; 3, 5 or 10 seconds. That way you can have legitimate matches with it rather than having to sprint around and barely being able to aim.

awesome... shame i dont have Wii...oh well..

 

[Cowabungaa]

Soo innovative!


...Is what I would be saying if this hadn't existed for at least 10-fucking-years. PC games, Counter Strike particularly, has long since had this kind of thing going. In fact you can also choose to just "beacon" them, set them on fire... etc. Besides, it's a terrible way to fix a game flaw. If people are camping, and are effective at it, either there's a problem with the game mechanics or with the map. This is just a lazy workaround.

Next thing they'll discover: Server admin tools!

It's not a fix, it's a game mod. I think a lot of people are really misunderstanding this news. You can still stand still in a regular game, just not one with this mod. The title of this thread is kinda misleading.

I personally love mods. They make the game so much more varied. I remember Instagib on UT99, that was awesome.

Also, running and gunning - not much better. Seriously, no one likes campers and stuff, but since you have to be constantly moving around, it will be a hectic non-skillfull mess.

Really? So every twitch-based shooter like Unreal Tournament and Quake are non-skillfull?

 

[Shadeovblack]

Camping is excellent and there should be more of it.

3. This is Goldeneye, not Call of Duty. The game plays very different, and isn't very sniper friendly in the first place.

I should point out that CoD may not be intended to be played by whiping around the map like a moron in the same vein as the original Golden Eye ... but that's how its played anyhow.

I understand that the destination is cool?

True enough I guess, if it's optional for people who like a faster, up close and personal game then there's no harm done.

 

[Addendum_Forthcoming]

I think 5 seconds would be a little more fairer ... but I think it's a good idea n.n Maybe you could set the number of seconds alternatively?

Afterall if you throw a flashang or grenade into the breach before deciding to move on you don't want to have to move around possibly exposing yourself whilst cooking a grenade to throw around a corner.

 

[SilverUchiha]

Much dislike. I like the ability to have the option of camping and non-camping. It's a legit strategy, whether people like it or not. Besides, nothing's more fun than finding someone who's been hiding out and beating the shit out of him/her.

 

[Cid Silverwing]

This is the first time I've seen developers take an immature stance against multiplayers.

COUNTER-TACTICS YOU FUCKWITS!

 

[hazabaza1]

If you stand still for only 3 seconds?! That's a horrible idea!.

3 sec is waaaaaaay too short. They should make it 5-10 sec.

Well, no more snipers then..

That's a fucking terrible idea.
.

Ahem... I have an announcement to make

ITS ONLY 1 GAME MOD. NOT EVERY GAME TYPE WILL FEATURE THIS! IF YOU WANNA SNIPE OR CAMP CHOOSE ANOTHER TYPE!

/announcement

I know, I know, but the gaming community is so very against camping nowadays, that'll be chosen nearly all the time.

 

[Desert Tiger]

Ugh. This sucks. I can't believe they-OH MY GOD ODDJOB'S HAT.

 

[TerribleAssassin]

Couldn't the campers just dance back and forth in one spot instead?

No, because when you think about it, thay'll look retarded and stop and blow up.


OT: Yes! I must buy this game, damn me not buying the original!

 

[Gingernerd]

To myself, it's seems just a fun mode of play. I hope it could be used as a last resort though "AWGH! The pokemon used self-destruct!" I'm sure there'd be the odd explosion kill.

 

[RikSharp]

the only people who complain about camping are the ones who havent thought of a way to stop the campers, that what explosives and sneakiness are for.

theres not much more satisfying than a single pistol round to the back of the head of a camper who you snuck past to get to.

And there's nothing more annoying than losing a match because no one else managed to take out the camper and having to put up with him spouting obscenities at you and making sure you know that you really suck.

Weapons like claymores/proxy mines/means to guard a sniper and things like heavy/explosive weapons have no place in vehicleless FPS.

And if you can't snipe on the fly, then you're just sniping to compensate for your lack of anything else going for you in FPS.

see now the shouting obscenities thing is just the player being a dick. that can happen if they are camping or not.
and what are claymores or prox mines for then?

as an idea to stop camping, why not just remove any ranged weapons. if you play slappers only, you got to move about.
