Teabag Prevention: Camo Camo Camo Camo Chameleon

THIS WEEK: CAMO

If you were a Beta player, then you’ll know that Camo has received a few tweaks regarding how visible you are while you move since Halo 3. In a way, the special ability has “evolved” (even though it’s a prequel.) If you were an avid Halo 3 player since the beginning then you’ll know that Reach’s Camo shares same purpose as the Radar Jammer in Halo 3 did, therefore in Reach, you get Camo and Radar Jammer combined. If you take anything from what I’m saying right now, it’s that you must know that Camo class in Reach has TWO purposes. (Complex, right?! Let’s see what else is in store for this week…)

 

How to use it (Camo)

 

The quicker you move, the faster you die. No, really. The faster you move, the more visible you are and the more likely you are to die a horrible, cocksure death. Remember that when you’re on your way to the enemy location. Also, take note that this Armor Ability can be activated and deactivated at any time. It does not take juice to start up like Armor Lock and Jetpack do, which actually makes it quite awesome… even though it kind of has a “the more you work, the less money you make” type of feel to use it at first.

 

When to use it

 

When scrambling your enemy’s motion tracker so that you and your teammates can pull a Sam Fisher, or a Ninja Gaiden, or a Batman in Arkham Asylum, or a Boo.

 

To become The Dark Defender, I’m sorry, what I really meant to say was to blend into dark corners so you can sneak up on your prey like a child molester, you don’t move and use your armor ability to its best advantage… but ONLY if you’re in a high traffic area where you won’t be camping and NOT killing people. Nothing worse than a camper who’s sitting there for no reason… although this IS the best armor ability for getting up and microwaving some pizza rolls.

 

 

While Sniping. Yes, you’re visible when you fire, and yes, this pisses people off to no end in Doubles Arena, as it should because you’re basically a machine (unless you camp too much and people find out where your base of operations is.) This actually brings up a good point, when finding good spots, find good spotS, as in not just one. 

 

When NOT to use it

 

While running across the battlefield yelling your battle cry at the top of your lungs. Everyone can see you, you idiot. You’re defeating the point of your armor ability.

 

 

When no one is around, because seriously, that’s just a waste. Intelligent camping is one thing, but it’s another to activate it as soon as the enemy comes into range.

 

 

In a doorway. “Hurrrp durrrp, they’re not going notice me here!” You look like the Predator, getcho butt off the dancefloor.

 

Remember that when you choose the Camo class, you’re taking on two responsibilities. If you do your job right, and support your teammates with your motion tracker scrambler, then you’ve got yourself happy teammates. Just to refresh, your responsibilities are to pick people off from a secret distance and to discombobulate your enemies for your peeps.
