I am curious about killcam bug.

Sometimes killcam screen shows opponent team members' name tag and whereabouts on the HUD. (not on radar)

Which is exactly the same function as cheat ESL (shows everyone's name tag on HUD)

I watch same player and his killcam sometimes shows name tags of oppo and other times it doesn't.


Can you confirm that this is just killcam bug and not guy is turning on and off the ESL cheat?

The only thing I now, that it sometimes can be buggy... Because it sometimes doesn't show the kill!

Kill cam ALWAYS shows name tags to see whos who when the kill happened. So its not a bug and i dont care if some loser uses cheat tag because i can kill him anyway since i use my senses and can detect him easy

Does the result differ from server to server, or can you get differing results in the same game/server? That will indicate whether it's a server setting or something else.

I have a feeling there's some killcam hack or lag switch that causes this out there, this always seems to happen when someone's pwning the server.

On the other hand it could just be server lag or a bad connection.

I have to agree. I have seen this way to many times. One of them that was owning the server said it was max radar. lol Yeah right.

It's normal in the kill cam, what's your problem? o:

this is absolutly normal!
when you watch the killcam, you see ALL (dogtags, players, support bonuses like orbital strike appearing green when your team launched it, etc) like you see it when youre alive! the dude who killed you only sees his team, and only his other things.
in instant action, when you get killed you still see everyone in the killcam but not the one who killed you.

I see the same player's game in the same server in the same round.


I'll take an example situation

I am in team A and XXX is in team B and we are playing TIA.
XXX just killed me and there were 3 more A's teammates in my vincinity at the moment.


I saw player "XXX"'s killcam of killing me and it shows name tags of my teammates on XXX's HUD.
Not just my name tag, it shows other 3 more teammates' NAME TAGs, not just reverse trianglar marks, on HUD.


1 )
Weird thing is even when someone in B team silently tags A members from afar,
normally XXX's killcam only shows reverse trianglar marks on other A members.
Not 3 more name tags of A teammates.

2)
And normally XXX's killcam should only show the name tag of me which XXX's cross hair is pointing at, not all the 3 other A team players who's in my vincinity.

3)
XXX's killcam weirdly shows total of 4 A members name tags at one point, and the next time XXX killed me again, his killcam works just normally.
It shows only my name tag which his cross hair is directly pointing at, nothing weird about it now.

4)
Might be just some player's doing tagging from afar but it happens in very small maps like subway station too where tagging is relatively difficult, as everyone is busy running around shooting and dodging.



I see this happening in almost all the servers, regardless of server ping.
And it happens with all kinds of game mods, TIA, IA, CTR, any mods.



Hopefully, crytek can investigate into this matter and clarify if it's hack or killcam bug. So we can sort out the cheaters or what not.

And the killcam itself has obvious bug that sometimes it doesn't show how the opponent kill me at all, and it happens without gamma lazer lag.


Thanks.
