There's nothing worse than running around a Call of Duty map, clicking heads and feeling awesome, then getting your head blown off out of nowhere, watching the killcam, and seeing that it was a camper. Apparently, that camper could've been Manchester City striker Erling Haaland because he's been a camper his whole life.

In an October 21 video on his YouTube channel, the Norwegian soccer superstar was 1-v-1-ing English rapper Harrison "Aitch" Armstrong in Modern Warfare 4. Very early in the video, Aitch asks how Haaland tends to play CoD games. Haaland came through with some honesty.

"You know what, and this is a bit embarrassing to say, but I've been a camper my whole life," Haaland told Aitch. "I'm that guy that you hate. [I'll] probably get some hate now, but it is what it is."

Well, you know what, Haaland? You are the guy that I hate, and I'm not sorry about it.

Camping has always been a controversial tactic in CoD games. The idea that someone would sit in a corner, often with a high-powered sniper like the DSR 50 in CoD: Black Ops or the M40A3 in CoD4: Modern Warfare, and pick targets off one by one always seemed counterintuitive to the fast-paced nature of CoD games. Sure, it provides better accuracy, but camping eliminates the skill involved with gunplay and instead produces boring matches as campers wait around for enemies to shoot.

Modern Warfare 4 doesn't officially launch until October 23, and the official subreddit is already full of people decrying campers .
