I am guessing if the camper mod stays then it will be better if we remove the sniper rifles and any other single shot or scoped weapon. The idea of the game is to be realistic, mimicing a real battle with infantry using a various style of weapons and play style. I then checked on the forums to find n anouncement about the bounty or at least a post asking for peoples response on the idea. but couldn't find anything. this bounty has ruined the game in my eyes. What if your melting your team mates in a good location so therefore not wanting to move, now the enemy will find you, what if your the last one and your hidden but can melt a few team mates to change the tide of the battle (having seen teams come back from only 1 player left to win). This wont happen anymore. YACCster, El Presidente, Scoarch and 1 other 4 Awards

Just to recap for those that still dont know... The non solid bubble is in the mod update and will change when it is applied. Just because you can see the money bag icon on your screen doesnt mean you are targeted, it means you have a bonus attached to you (invisible) for the next person that kills you. You only become targeted for termination (visible icon above your head) when you camp for a lengthy amount of time repeatedly. Most of you move the required amount of distance now to avoid being targeted without even trying. Sniper classes are exempt from the bounty system. The mod is still in testing and your feedback is being used to smooth it out the best it can. iboomboom 1 Awards

I thought as a whole that XI did not discriminate on how one played. everyone has a different style. now i can see this bounty implemented in Ace mod. as it is a run and gun but camping is so much a part of freeze tag. seems a little bi-est to me.

Neither are drop shooters. If anything those that do can be some of the most vulnerable in the game. When in the air or going prone they cannot dodge. You also know exactly where they are going to land and all you have to do is wait for them. Tubes are not a big problem either, nor perk 1 explosives in general, because you only get two of them. Always satisfying to pick off someone that hops right in your direction in the hope of shooting you. They are sitting ducks, so to speak. Awards

So I did. I recommended however to keep the bonus part in a reduced form. If you do seriously camp and are shot then a bonus will be given to the attacker. 10 or 20 points. Campers dont have to give two shits about it since they will be unaffected and can epoxy their feet to the ground if they want. iboomboom, Scoarch and YACCster 3 Awards

So moving forward this post can now receive thank you comments or posts for Sammy. As I am sure many of the good deeds go un thanked or noticed. Awards
