I don't know WHY people are always bitching and moaning about people who sit in the stationary gun and fire away. I mean, its a perfect way for a noob to help their team. If the turret wasn't coded in to sit their unoccupied the whole game.

The turrets AREN'T overpowered. I don't know why people say it's overpowered, then say it sucks, then get pwned, and then kill the guy in the turret. Its easy to kill a guy operating turret.....so why the [:-censored] does everyone whine about them? Just get a [:-censored]ing Barret and kill them from off the screen, or nade them, or use the LAW on them, or get some pals and strafe them with AK's, or use the XM on it.

I don't get it : whats so bad about camping in a turret?

it can get a little annoying with 6 snipers and a stat gun and you with an AK, but sometimes they get suprised. it's not overpower, just sometimes overused

yeah thats like when i was called lame for using the other teams turret against them (in some map i cant remember).. its just a game strategy. i dont agree with camping behind polygons and sniping but theres nothing wrong with using stationary guns.

hhahah element. anyway. its annoying to have the same person sitting on the stat...even though that would be really stupid cuz some one could just throw a nade at you and murder you

The turrent was put there to be used anyone that complains about people using it really needs to shut the hell up!

I agree with peemonkey. A turret is meant to be more efficient in firepower than a normal gun, so it isnt overpowered. Theyre just overused from time to time.

i never see a problem except when people just stand there for a few mins, that's when it starts to get annoying.

That is a game strategy too...I'd rather have a camper then a stat gun user.

I think its kinda lame and closer to cheating then a strategy. Using a stat gun occasionally is not. If youd rather have a fairly vulnerable stat gun user then a close-to-invisible barret user be my guest.

If there were no campers, I wouldnt get any kills because nobody would sit still for long enough.

Did you come here to try and start a flame war?

Shut your [:-censored]ing trap if you don't have anything to say about this topic. You're clearly another idiot trying to raise their post count, and trying to prove something by picking on new players.

Get a life, little boy.

I think the turrent can be used until your killed anymore and people start getting cut

In my experience, those who camp get killed quickest. Just nade them, it's all it takes.

If you don't move, you get killed fast.

The stat gun sucks because it takes little to zero skill. Its a pain in teh ass when people camp on it and generally, where is the fun?

There's always a way to take out somebody using the stat gun.

They're fairly prone to attack, just sitting there - plus the gun can over heat.

You have many options.

Come from above / behind.

Run and throw a nade - you may sacrifice yourself but you rid the field of the stat gunner (if you live, the stat gunner isn't that great).

Take them out with an m79, or a barret.

Or team up and take them out with a hail of bullets. [:D]

Anyway, it's not difficult to take somebody out who's on a stat gun, so stop bitching and get back to playing.

Just kidding. [:P]

Anyway, have to install XFire here, later. [8D]

Well, his topics aren't exteremly well thought out, I'll say that much.

You haven't ripped my topics, you silly boy.

BTW, wanna try playing the game for a change instead of sitting onthe forum all day?

You're the biggest [:-censored]ing idiot I've met on this game so far. Pull your [:-censored]ing head out of your ass, and try to take part in the discussion, you miserable jack off.

Tell me your idea of a good post?
This forum was meant to be used.

He should try playing the game.....
3000 posts. He should try to divert some posting energy into playing.

Don't waste my time.

Marine, you really should think before you shoot your mouth off.

I don't have anything against you, mind you.

I'd like to know what N1nj@ has against me. I tried to be friendly when I came here, but he thinks its fun to flame newbs.

I apologize for offending you in any way.

I just tried to start a discussion on campers. In a way this was also a question thread "Whats wrong with campers?" ect. To bad you took it the wrong way.
