Killcam?

I don't think this has been asked, do here it is: will there be any kind of killcam?

nope.avi

When you're downed, you can see (albeit in a really hazy mist of blood) what's going on still. You do not see how you were killed, even if you have died.

It'd be someone aiming at you and spraying 2 or 3 bullets while you were lying on the floor every. single. time.

pretty much, or they could mix it up and show the place the guy shot you from. could freak some people out how often empty doorways and shipping containers have killed them.

kill cam will be pointless when your killer will be teabagging you while you bleedout.

I wouldn't see the point for a killcam in a game like this.

No point in this game since you'll be down wounded or respawn after your killer executes you.

I don't see the point in any game, except to make it easier for people.

Technically being downed is a form of killcam in itself.

Counter camping measure and very helpful to determine cheaters/script kids. Seals the deal for me.

Thank whichever deity you do or don't pray to that there is no killcam.

Counter sniper measure, but it doesn't do much to deter the more negative campers.

And it's been my experience that it actually causes more false accusations of cheaters, and even campers, than anything else.

I hate kill cams in games. I dont think someone should be rewarded for dying. if i have a good spot and im hidden when i kill you it should stay that way.

Kill cam is a useful thing to see how your Hunter killed you and with what.

The downside is, your location is discovered giving the enemy too much information just for getting killed.

Happens on PC all the time. Guy gets a killcam and in his kil cam (generally due to lag or the game or whatever) it looks different than what he believes it should and accuses you of cheating, reports you, etc.

In most games the kill cam only records part of what happened at that last moment, for example in Black Ops things like smoke, flashbangs, etc. that were present during the actual kill don't get recorded and they just replay the action as it would appear on the board at the second it replays.

Generally I either know where I got killed from, or applaud the guy for having good position, killcams seem to add unneeded stress to the situation.

Now, being able to go back and watch a video of the game afterwords is a much better tool for determining if you were cheated, but also to learn what mistakes you made.

I think there should be a killcam if you are killed and can't see you killer. It would help if there will be camping.

It won't help camping, because if lesser people want to camp then they are going to camp. Nothing will stop them from trying to get easy kills. It should be up to YOU to either toss a grenade into the area before running in, or avoid that route completely. And don't say you "have to go that way" because then you'd be a liar. Unless you plan on playing the heavy type exclusively, in which case you could probably kill the camper before he could kill you.

You can't get better at the game if the developers hand feed you kills (showing you where people are at via killcam). The trick to getting better at any game is learning from your mistakes, and then out-thinking your opponent the next time you meet.
