It's starting to be that most of the time I get this level, more and more seem to become aware of camping near the LZ & doing it. It's really making things mighty boring for those that find camping/mindless grinding boring.

I never play Platinum, and maybe because of this I barely see the box of shame tactic being used, if ever. So on Gold, Giant is the biggest problem I'm starting to see way to often.

Are others seeing this Giant camping thing happen a lot too? (PS. X-Box player)



Too bad this problem was realized and thus fixed by BioWare sooner... maybe by adding permanent turrets near there. :devil:

No, I don't ever see anyone camping the LZ on Giant. It's great.

Simply move to the spawn point directly opposite, and on the far end of the map. It'll force enemies to spawn near the camped area and after a while they'll give up because the camp will get overrun by a mob of enemies.

Let them camp. Run around and have fun yourself.

Were around when every gold game was Geth with fire base white? That got old real fast.

Is it camping or just controlling the spawns? I think it's a good idea for everyone to start the wave kinda near the LZ so they spawn elsewhere. Then, go at it!

If they stay there the whole time: camping

If they move after forcing enemy spawns: not camping

So is telling others how to play and complaining on BSN.  Any strategy people use is whined about by some douchebag on this site.  Op kits are shunned, op guns are shunned which is why BSN  is nothing but a stupid joke anymore.  If I played how BSN says I should I will go mad and end up shooting myself.

Just block the back room spawn at the start of the wave then commence to killing stuff on your own.

Omg I hate when people camp in the hack circle or the escort circle or lz circle. It's so boring bioware should nerf it.

I agree with the op. There are an excessive number of games set to that. I am getting really sick of being tossed into ongoing games on giant.

What? People are camping on Gold now? Maybe I just never notice it because I keep running around the map to kill things.

Typical bsner attitude...whine when people do nothing and are carried but when pugs actually try a strategy that may help them win and contribute people whine too.  Well time to go as usual bsn is still a stupid joke so see ya next week.

I find people who camp on giant on platinum all the time, 99.99999% of platinum games on giant are LZ camping, I find it extremely irritating, I'm covering the whole map at all times but the other 3 are just holding the LZ. Not only is it a little boring, it does nothing to improve your skill.

I'll whine when any map becomes so popular that it starts to dominate the random map setting.  Much like FB white geth gold in the past.  That was a very very efficeint map for pug players.

yeah it's not that giant isn't a fun map because I like it quite a bit, but now if you're plat pugging you will see it so much cause the strategy is so successful and the map gets tiring and pugz aren't playing a lot of the other maps.... for me the line between camping and not camping has gotten so blurry.. I consider camping to be what old FBW Geth was were the team would sit behind hard cover with decoys out and grab kill the enemies as they mindlessly came into reach so for all non objective waves they would be bolted to that tiny area where as in most platinum pugs I play these days there are areas the team tries to hold down defeat enemies there and then go find more enemies and hold a new area so a bit run and gun and a bit holding the line, but certainly not running around on gold with a head butt horny krogan racing from spawn to spawn.

Camping improves the skill more than running around if it's done properly, unless you were mentioning spawn control.
Now it might be boring and slow, but it's not true that camping is a stupid or a bad strategy, with all the "new" anti-camping enemies if a team succeeds (= they don't die 4759834534 times trying) in a said strategy it means their teamwork is good.

Said this, I love to camp from time to time, it gives that "hold the line" feeling that reminds me the story of Mass Effect.

Also, it's seems having a Juggy in the party makes this happen more often.
