My best sniping game was on Carbon (22-0), just three away from the infamous MOAB. In all my time playing MW3 I’ve probably had about 4 games where I didn’t get killed staying in the same spot the entire game, which I’d call camping, if I didn’t have a sniper rifle. It is against the law to camp, however no one ever explains or defines exactly what camping is. Yet, this real world tactic of waiting for the perfect shot is frowned upon in the video game world, and you’ll never be shocked to hear “fucking camper,” “camping bitches,” or “get some skills you fucking camper.” So I “camp” in the best spots I’ve found and support my team from a distance, protecting them from flanking enemies or those who decide to run alone in my direction. I’ve even found some spots on maps like Dome, Piazza, Carbon, Arkaden, and Downturn that usually aren’t the best places for a sniper in any mode. With my Blind Eye Pro and Assassin Pro perks, I can blend into the foilage and not have a red name tag on my player, adding to the stealth. Maps like Mission, Village, Liberation, Resistance, and Bakara are the dream for a sniper. And in this mode, I found my love of the sniper rifle, the RSASS listed above.
So going around a corner full speed as most players do in core mode isn’t always a good idea in hardcore mode. In hardcore mode there’s no mini map/HUD always up that’ll give your position away with an unsilenced weapon, so you actually need a UAV (killstreak reward) to ever see other players on a map. And now today, even on core mode, I get more kills than deaths 9 times out of 10. Eventually, when I began playing with a buddy Gamertag: nottall4nothn, who only played hardcore mode, I saw my K/D increase. I had the advantage of having the maps on the first day like everyone else who bought it upon release, thus they had no real advantage other than skill.
However, like Black Ops, I started with the core maps and tended to have more deaths than kills but not with such a wide spread as I did in Blacks Ops.
Having sucked terribly at Black Ops until I learned how to take advantage of my perks, I vowed to be better at MW3. I’ve been addicted to Call of Duty: MW3 since it’s release back in November 8, 2011.
