Community Manager@aceuTivesseMiraI'm with you on this.
Imo, when I think of someone who hate camping:
- They are players who get stuck in the those 1990 games. They want the enemy stands in front of them, fight them in the most fair play combat. And when they got killed by someone behind? They will cry "this coward is a camper, he's less 'skillful' then me"
Lol they deny the fact that they were outsmarted by a smarter guy.
Please, go and play Quake, Unreal Tournament, Halflife. In those games, you don't have to use brain at all, only "pure skills" needed. 1990s titles were all bout "pure skills".
Sorry I'm wrong, new Contra game coming soon. Absolutely no campers in that game.

I don't want to derail the thread but I have to pick you up on this - if you can watch any quake final involving a top tier player like Rapha and say it's any less cerebral than ANY BR gameplay out there : I'd suggest you don't really know what you're looking at. Search for "Rapha Quake Final" and watch literally ANY of the videos that come up, providing they're well commentated even if you're too young to have played any of them, you'll see there's a lot more going on than pouncing around facetanking each other.
You're right about one thing though : Skill was more the focus, generally. Not always a benefit for casual players and the decline of playerbase for games like quake champions (not purely because of being mired by technical problems and poor server infrastructure) is evidence of it.
I'm not against players who aren't going to be punching at their weight in the top brackets having something other than the 1 out of X games won to aim for. It's a good idea - but it DOESN'T make sense to start putting diminishing returns on beating other squads in fights in the higher brackets where it is categorically harder to do.
