Please, get rid of the death cam!

[bengley]

Yeah. It just gives away snipers' positions and sometimes it can just be annoying. The game would be that little bit more awesome without it.

Redbud agreed with me too. We were discussing it on donner.

 

[PotatoCannon]

It is the councils choice and its been this way for almost a year longer.
Also what about if you have someone glitching in a wall? You wouldnt just see him the freezecam would and also what if you had a sniper with like 10kills in a row?

 

[Thorbjorn]

In the start i just said: "GET RID OF THAT STUPID CAM" its giving away snipers posistion and because i love the sniper it is anoying... But now its just like i got use to it and there is no way to change it so its just this simple... if you still hate cam and love to camp try move posistion sometimes

 

[habsfan]

i think we need it because when u got kill by a sniper we need to know where he is to tell to ur team...

 

[Chef Ramsey]

Death cam is a necessary evil. I believe it helps a sniper become better at moving positions.

If you stay in the same spot you are gonna get caught.

I second that motion.

And Potato... broheim.. we know it's the council's choice. I believe we don't need a constant reminder. You have to remember the forum's are where we can share our feelings and thoughts to give the council insight.

Of course, it's up to them to listen or not.

 

[B man]

I say deep 6 it.

man u wouldnt get killed if you were a skilled sniper. dont sit in one spot leave and go to another sopt then go back to the orignal spot and do it again.

 

[AWPerator]

Find ways to use the death cam to your advantage.
After camping in a spot for 2-3 kills, move to a spot where you can see people trying to find you

Rinse, repeat.

 

[cLaSsiX]

i didnt like it at first. but now ive gotten used to it.

i wouldnt mind seeing it go though.

 

[Cheez]

Well it may seem like a disadvantage, but as a sniper player I can honestly tell you that with or without the cam, your average dod:s players will already know where your sniping from.

Its more of a coolness feature, than a factor against the snipers.

 

[RoosteR]

i dont really snipe that much anymore, so i dont mind. in fact, lets me know where my rockets should be headin

You're so right, I was just looking for someone to say that, else I would've

Who gives a freaking crap about what a pain-in-the-butt pubber thinks? We've run the servers as we have now for a while now, and it works very well

 

[ManBearPig]

Especially redbud of all pubs (dont get me wrong hes a cool guy)

 

[Endorama]

Well It used to not be there before the fix. Made the game a bit more challenging. Not just a shoot em up. But that's just me.

 

[Currahee]

If it was removed I think it would encourage more teamplay, you'd have to rely on team work to narrow down the possibilities of where that sniper was. Also I don't snipe too often but when I do most of the time I see the sniper who takes me out before they kill me, so friendly snipers can work as scouts letting people know where the snipers and MG are.

 

[Big Orange]

I don't mind it at all. I just play, plus the only reason you can blame your death on the "death cam" its because you are camping.

A year..? And nice grammar.

Anyway, the freezecam is just for kicks in the end. I agree it helps snipers move around more, and probably gives them better reaction times ^^. It's bad for hidden MGs in my opinion, because then a rocket can easily kill them.

 

[Alias[DAM]]

... and also what if you had a sniper with like 10kills in a row?

Sorry, i just have to quote this. 10 kills in a row? I hope you are kidding, if not, there is a whole world out there in DoD with snipers that kill more then 30 guys in a row. And yes, even in eGO...

And as a sniper you shouldn't worry about the killcam. Snipers move around, more then normal players. Just kill a guy and move up, and so on...

And btw, if you know the game without the killcam you should know that when somebody killed you the centre of your screen focusses on the guy that killed you, even when he's moving around. Shouldn't that give away the snipers position as well? So i don't think removing the killcam helps a thing...

at first i was like, crap there goes another good game steam has ruined. Then i noticed that people still couldnt kill me even with the handout(kill cam)
