How do you feel about camping in FPS?

Do you abhor camping?

Same. For me camping playstyle is simply boring to play as. It's on game the give tools to deal with it like flashbangs etc
Agreed, its not really satisfying getting boatload of points just from sitting there and waiting. And yeah most decent comp fps gives you stuff to counter that sort of playstyle. Smokes, flashes, moly, nades etc. And CQC loadouts like SMG and shotguns.

I like rushing campers with no game sense, most of the time its free kd.
 
Camping in an FPS is fine... but not in a third person shooter, that's when it becomes bullshit! because you can look around corners.

in first person you at least have the ability to see eachother at the same time (minus peek advantage of course), while in third person the camper can watch you completely undetectably around a corner and wait for you to get close enough to jump out of cover.
this gives the camper both the corner peeking advantage and the regular peek advantage the server latency gives you in any game, making camping insanely unfair.

this is why I am still kinda baffled anyone would want to play Arc Raiders tbh... an extraction shooter where campers can look around corners... 🤮
