camping

[Max Power]

Because in a pi$$ing contest, whoever does it the furthest and longest wins....cant think of any other logical reason.

That's pretty much it. I am probably gonna buy Palms and I have no idea why.

[deuces]

Dont do it max!!

I literally lol'd, dillinja...

[crybaby]

Wow guys! Ireally enjoyed this thread, although it went way off the charts LOL. I'm not a camper myself but was just curious about how hi you actually go an still camp....but pretty good read lol

[msjo]

shoulda probably referred to MY end game. around 100 or less... yeah probably less

I think this is the biggest reason camping doesn't appeal to me. I totally get that if you really play this game for an long period of time, you might gain some advantage through camping then crawling. But I doubt I have the interest level for that amount of real time for this game, so I want a strategy of game play that lets me play actively now, when the game is relatively new and interesting to me. I don't want a strategy that takes months of not doing most aspects of the game before I can be active. So I can see how for a second account, it might be sort of fun to compare the characters, but I only have one device that I use regularly.

What are these mysterious cash weapons - everyone else has told me there are NO decent cash weapons. I have some that I purchased when I was doing some very early map goals - but after that I haven't bought anything with cash. OK - maybe steel garrotes are fine but that's the only 1 I could think of..............

There're plenty good cash weapons if you want to save RP for end game RP items at mid levels. I probably is the strongest non gold player at my level. I choose my opponents carefully and almost never lost a fight to another non gold player until yesterday. This guy has weak att and high def stats. I thought his high def was coming from inflated defense buildings until I attacked him and lost the fight. I was totally confused and checked his inventory. He bought 300 riot shields(1a/12d) for his 300 mafia. That's true 3.6k solid weapon defense and pretty hard to beat. Imaging it was 300 blast shields(1a/19d), it would be 5.7k defense from his armor department alone. Many players only got 5k total att/def at level 70. I'm pretty sure he's not a cheater, riot shield is the only weapon he bought in bulk.

Are there better then mentioned cash "end of game" weapons?

Armored jets are the best end game defense vehicle. At 84 million each I haven't seen anyone high level with more than 10.
24/36 stats.

Summarize some points and misconceptions.

Its not a race to level 200. You don't get a prize for getting there first. In fact the faster you get there all you will get is a knuckle sandwich over and over again.

I'm not competing with the guy who started at the same time as me. I am only competing with people at my level and more importantly within my mafia bracket.

True someone who races through the levels will most likely earn more respect over time as they are active players. Active players need to burn through all stamina and energy several times a day or so. Its their playing style which is fine.
This was great when farming for M4s. Problem is there are no good farmable end items and many HL players regret investing so much into energy which is a huge waste imo. Best to go all into attack and some in stamina depending on play style. So with all things being equal a disciplined camper with this approach will have an attack multiplier advantage once reaching HL. People are already complaining about the atm crusher giving people a +100 attack. My level 58 account already has over 200 attack. Both this account and tortoise will have close to 600 by end game.

Most levelers will waste respect on mid tier items like yams and nvbs to remain competitive. Campers with great economy can bypass all mid tier replaceable respect items and buy cash items until end game respect items become available.
Some like myself don't even need to do that. My level 58 account just purchased 1 chain whip and has over 35k respect saved and counting.

What will separate a true camper from the pack is the largest possible hood with 50 of all top defense buildings upgraded, plus fully stocked top explosives. I have visited many HL players hoods and read their wall and don't see many defense buildings apart from gatlings and turrets and a reoccurring post about having to build and upgrade more defense buildings.

@emcee

One of the reasons that players do not have nightclubs is that they are hard to collect 100% and some people have a low tolerance for getting robbed. For me, I bank my 40% and move on. For others, they would rather not have a nightclub at all than have one that gets robbed.

Thats true but I've seen HL players with buildings that require more collections per day.

Also, night clubs can be easily hidden behind hotels and other buildings.

Being the best income producing building in the game even if you collect twice on a level 10 nc it still beats a level 10 casino.

Moreover, it may not be possible to collect 4x in 24 hours but not that difficult to collect 4 times in 30 hours.
In the long run it will average out most likely north of 3 collections per day. However a 24 hour or 48 hour building can be even more problematic. Even though you collect once a day or in two days all you need is to forget to collect or something comes up to throw a wrench in your collection. Trying to resync collections on these building will be quite difficult if you time things just before your bedtime and have now pushed it back another 2 hours for instance.
On the other hand 6 hours for a nc is a breeze even if you miss collections.

Camping is an utterly pointless exercise, you'd make more money robbing and therefore be able to buy the bigger buildings faster. While you're staying low levelled with only a couple of decent building everyone else is getting to level 200 with fantastic economy working on their equipment and having better map farming locations. You don't get an advantage by camping in the long run. All you make by camping is money which eventually becomes quite pointless, better to keep levelling, you'll make respect then at level 200 continue making respect and be far ahead with respect items and a camper could never close the gap because of all the wasted time and having cash as his only resource which is easily outclassed by the 500 exeleros everyone will have while you pussy foot in a tent.

Let's gain xp just to make money? Why not build your economy and gain 0 xp? I am level 1 with $300k iph 2 level 2 nightclubs. I will never need to rob/attack especially when they are level 10. Your happy your flying up to level 200 gaining crazy xp for stats 2x your level? Llp are key these days. All hlp are making llp accounts bc they see they wasted 200 levels. Soon they will make money worth more (just like wins in battle) for now they have LTBs, syn bonuses (if your not riding in your daddies) and build iph. can't wait for the future when all these weak iph players miss out on what GREE does!

I agree with the limited robbing, I only get LTBs

Besides, what is he missing out on, with all this stat inflation, he can catch up whenever he "starts playing"

You might want to read the posting guidelines sometime.

What's the issue?!?

[jmeijer]

Let's go to page 110 of the General Section, look at a thread about camping and comment on a person who is probably retired or doesn't camp anymore. Congrats with your epic necro.

[Dipstik]

Also, quit bragging about being l1. You got a reset, probably because you cheated the first time.
