I generally find it still pretty easy to hold down an area on most of the new maps. You just have to know how to do it.

This^

Standoff is the prefect example. Theres a whole outline of the maps that is perfect for camping, you just gotta know how to go about it Equipment is everything in BO2, use it all to your complete advange.

the maps aren't large at all, turbines biggish, but thats all

the maps aren't large at all, turbines biggish, but not massive

That video is pretty funny. His setup isnt that difficult to counter though. Running engineer and two tacticals with a shotgun can easily counter his stuff. One emp grenade downstairs under that room would kill all electronics he has, then flash the crap out of him and kill him.

I love this vid ^^ and commentary, makes you laugh hard

That is world championship camping, that guy is the Lance Armstrong of campers

The emp grenade with engineer is a must have class. There isn't a place in this game where someone can hide behind their camper equipment. You can't throw an emp directly at a trophy, but if there is a room underneath or a wall close enough the blast will go through and kill all of their stuff.

The maps are littered with camping spots. I played a 6v6 tdm with randoms last night. Everyone was camping, and the game timed out. I went 19/1 using engineer as a camper seeker. Our team won with a sorry 50/19. I promply left those losers after the game. The map was yemen, which just happens to be one of the best rushing maps.

Some people have fun playing the game by camping, some people like to run around the map. Either way it doesnt matter, the point is to have fun by playing any way you want. It is also true that it is a video game so people should not expect to be playing like if they joined the army. It is also a lot harder to camp in this game, with emp grenades destroying all of your equipment through walls or the millimeter scanner being able to see you through walls. Being killed by campers once or twice is something you have to expect but for a camper to get on a 5-10+ killstreak in this game, the other team must be ridiculously ignorant.

     I remember in Modern Warfare and WaW i could just hide in a bush or tall grass and just kill people with any gun with a silencer and every few kills just changing positions. Also you should be very glad there is no more juggernaut perk or stopping power. I always hated getting a few good shots on a guy, stop shooting, then realise he had juggernaut, but by then it was too late. You should be glad that there is a magical invisible barrier blocking any kind of plant or bush and that all grass is very well kept to a short length to prevent hiding in it.

     Not directed at you, but i also dislike it when people use camping as a blanket term for doing good in a game. Black Ops II was designed around SMG's and run and gun, as is obvious by the large amount of SMG's and another yet to come in the first DLC. The ghost perk is also an incredibly obvious sign that Activision/Treyarch wants you to quit camping. If ghost stopped you in previous games from finding someones position that was not moving after getting killed by them one or more times then lord help you. Activision/Treyarch are trying very hard to make a game where the only viable option is to run and gun, and every other play style is virtually futile. Most of the maps also glorify the run and gun play style with the only large map being turbine and possibly carrier.

     If you think getting shot in the back once in a while sucks, then be grateful this game is not another Modern Warfare of WaW, (even though those were my favorite Call of Duty games, and easily the two best out of them all). Sorry this was a bit long.

Hold R1 and R2   

These maps are not large at all and the ones that are big are full of crap everywhere all cluttered so they play small most of the time there is no one true map in this game with true long lines of sight without a bunch of crao on the way or headglitching spots surrounding it usually the long lines of sight are in the middle of the map so good luck. Look at the last map that came out for mw3 as of recent example Gulch. That map is great nice and open but stil places where smgs can be used. I hope with the new dlc they get more maps like previous cods. There needs to be mix it cant be all run run run it gets old.
