We played mosh pit exclusively two days ago. And I'm pretty sure everybody enjoyed it and we didnt lose a single match. But it was dumb to me that we didnt get our favorite game mode even one time.

And I play with oldschoola almost every night and we play mosh. Trendon you are seeing mike and hoos and me and whoever else in a way you shouldnt. Hoos needs to record some audio, because every person on our team is clearly trying to win whichever game we are playing, regardless of k/d. We are talking about k/d because k/d is important. It doesnt define you as a player, but it helps when you can kill people in this game believe it or not. Thats why slumping sucks. And i played fairly well last night so hopefully my slump is complete.

You complain about domination, but not other games? Sabotage is a pure sniper heaven and will have a camper or 3 at your bomb site while others go after the plant site. CTF which we were good at on COD W@W, same thing. Same for SnD and Demo. TDM goes against your argument against us since we play together we will have good K/ds.

Ill type slower for you this time. You cant have multiple campers on domination ( by my definition of a camper which you do not share with me) and win the game. You talk bad about strategy and call it camping, which leads me to the conclusion, you dont understand he game of domination.
This whole paragraph shows you are nuts.

First of all, I don't know how this got said, but I have no problem with camping. None! Notice I always carry a rocket launcher? Yeah, I like stationary targets. Seriously. Anyway, here is my synopsis. I am an expert on this since I , ya know, play them all!

I do not know what Sabotage you have been playing, but I suggest you go ask Heartman about the two Sabotage games we played last night with Schoola and Cane. I say to ask him because after the second one, he commented that "you looked like you were having a ball out there) referring to the chaotic nature of it all. I was. It was back and forth, back and forth. Sniping is at a minimum on Sabotage. Carry smoke grenades if you don't like it. I do to every match, even TDM.

Demolition is a goddamn camper fest, you are right. However, everyone gets a turn! It is fun and it is fair (except for the random - there doesn't seem to be any mechanism - for deciding who goes which direction in the third match).

Yet, once again, you do not get what I am saying. Go re-read my proposal in the other post. I am not complaining about the dynamic of Domination, per se. That is how the game is played. Shit, you know how I watch the score and the moment I see you only need one to win, I immediately find the one flag we have and SIT RIGHT NEXT TO IT! I have nothing against camping when it comes to winning the match.

I am just laughing at one (and now two) thing(s).

1) I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you all play Domination because it is easy and you don't have to do any work to pile up huge kill ratios and wins. I know this. That is the crux of my argument. You guys are like the Boise State of Call of Duty with your "scheduling".

2) This latest part; no game is so fucked with camping and positioning then Domination. Search and fucking Destroy has less people sitting in one spot than Domination after the first minute. The game is set up that way! You get A/C and B, and the game will vend enemies for you to shoot. All you have to do is be there, acting as veritable border agents.

So, when you combine 1 & 2, I see a motive. And that is my point. I wouldn't have a problem with it if I didn't have to hear about the "A-Team". LOL. Boise for BCS Champion!

We are going around in circles Trendon and it all goes back to what you see as camping and what I see as camping. I have played this game for a long time, Played every game mode there is, but Sabotage on COD4 and W@W was camper central, I find it hard to believe it has changed dramatically since last 2 games. IMO, the strat I have seen that works the best on sabotage is Campers and Attackers. Unless you have a group who says who is doing what, then I have seen you have more campers than attackers. To a lesser degree, the same for CTF. You gotta have guys who are going to watch the base at all times to protect the flag or plant site.

And this is where we differ hugely I guess. In Domination, you dont have to do that, you just have to protect B. B is usually in a fair spot to both teams, unlike the oppts flags in CTF or the plant site in Sabotage where campers and snipers just sit there all game. Are those game modes tougher than domination. Sure, but you are saying we couldnt adapt either, which I find hilarious. Ill play anything outside of Hardcore or SnD, plain and simple. I have the most fun on domination, its not because its the easiest. TDM is the easiest, you dont have to think on that game. You argument is shit, because none of us give two dicks about K/d, we win despite our K/ds more times than not because we arent afraid to go 3 at a time to a flag and get blown up. Domination is one of the few games where K/D means Dick to success. This thread was more of a on a personal level, some of us have been playing worse than we were a week ago, but I havent seen a slip in our team success.

Your Point 2 I answered earlier. No Fucking way in hell are there more campers in domination than Sabotage,CTF,TDM,or SND. But once again, you and I dont have the same view on camping. The camping in Domination at least allows an even playing field because the biggest flag is in the middle of the map where both teams have the option to get it to begin with.

The only thing I would disagree with there is the "None of us give 2 dicks about k/d" Dan and Hoos made it very clear that they care about K/d when they noted how much theres have slipped in their "slumps" lol.
