Minimalism in gaming

I've been experimenting with a new Call of Duty class idea. Just the gun, and nothing else. I have nothing but my gun. No perks, no attachments, no grenades, no tactical, no wildcards, and no secondary(besides my knife).

I've been using the MTAR(Black Ops II) in this minimalistic setting on hardcore(limited health, more damage, no HUD, and friendly fire) and I've never done better.

I'm starting to view all the extras as a crutch. By not using all these perks and attachments to help me play better I am starting to adapt to the difficulty of the game. I'm actually getting better.

I recommend that anybody who plays a FPS give this a try.

well in my current one . an mmo fps game "Defiance" im using apart from armor. a shotgun for close up and a sniper for long distance. the way i see it is . if i dont get them with the sniper while in cover. when thay reatch me i can blast them with the shotgun while still in cover

Isn't that camping?

Hey by the way welcome back!

I feel like this is for a system I don't have. XD

Black Ops came out for DS.

i dont play agenst uther players im strictly PVE. so the rediculas term "camping" douse not aply to me

and a thing i have to say about camping is.

it is sutch a rediculas term. it is just a difernt way of playing fps games. people just dont like it becouse. you usualy cant fined the "campers" and tend to get beaten by them.

There are 13(main) different types of FPS players:

1. The Rushain:
Sprints towards the enemy and shows no fear charging into battle. Dies more frequently then other players.

2. The Sloth:
Stands still while others run from their spawn. Eventually walks towards the enemies left after the first wave of your team hits. Somewhat cowardly.

3. The Sniper:
The Sniper finds a good vantage point and shoots the enemy from afar.

4. The Quick Scoper:
A colossal a**hole the Quick Scoper takes advantage of a glitch in the game that allows you to look down the scope of your sniper rifle for a millisecond and have a 100 percent accuracy 1 shot 1 kill. They ruin everything enjoyable in the game.

5. The Shotgunner:
Runs around the map and uses a shotgun. A common nuisance but tolerable.

6. The Camper:
Similar to the Sniper but the sniper has some skill. The Camper sits in a room and waits for people to walk in before blasting them away. Easily avoidable.

7. The Noob:
Zero skills. Uses the worst weapons and barely ever gets a kill. Increasingly rare.

8. The C ocky:
360 NO SCOPE!!! TOMAHAWK BANK SHOT FTW!!!! Usually a YouTube channel.

9. The Chick:
I'm not sexist but on Xbox some girls are there just for attention. They set their clan tag as Lady or Girl and flirt constantly. Just mute them.

10: The Squeaker:
Hasn't hit puberty yet so a very squeaky voice over the Mic. Mute at all costs.

11: The Gun Slinger:
Uses only pistols. Thinks he's a bada**, kinda is.

12. The Hacker:
It's hard to know for sure if they are a modder but if they have a full auto gun(that's not supposed to be), able to shoot through anything, perfect accuracy, and/or gets kill streaks super fast it's a safe bet you've got a hacker. Report immediately.

13: The Good Guy:
They play without exploiting any cheats, mods, or being a d*ck. Compliment them.

i will add a X to what i tend to be and a H at what im am not

Well I rarely play COD, but I'd say I'm a Rushain & Camper. I really don't care when I play, so I just run in & kill, then die. Being a Camper is also good, especially when you have a friend with you at the time.

I hate campers lately.

Lol. I've only ever played online COD for Modern Warfare (don't know the number), & believe me, camping is a fantastic strategy. Also in infected, it's even better.

Hahaha don't know the number. That just goes to show you that all COD games are the same.

The only thing that changes is the campaign & the stages.

Stages?

I couldn't think of the name. I meant maps.

They copied 4 maps for Black Ops II from past Call of Duty games.

Lol. COD is getting old.

Let the age of Nintendo begin again!

well right now i hav just finished a mishin i shouldent have dun on my own at my current lvl. with a load out of a manual action sniper rifle and a swon of shotgun. but dam it took me 3 houres to finish it and my kill count was the full 156 enimy. but i did die 57 times during the mishion. i should have brought a rocket launcher to the mishion and an asult rifle. but im a fan of close range and long range. i do extreams . im alway under lvl and never have the right eqipent for the mishion. but hay whair the fun in doing it exactly as you should.


o forgot to say this is a of topic post

Neptis: When I'm playing against AI and have Scavenger for ammo I can go indefinitely.

Matt: Because Nintendo isn't getting old.

Matt: I agree!
