:facewall:I was just wondering how many of you like/hate it, you know the one i'm talking about, it zoom's in on you when you kill someone, and shows them were you are, blows your whole cover, ya...... thats the one :cursing: me i think it should be taken out or turned off like the sniper servers, makes the game funner i think with out it, how about you :confused1:
 
I hate kill cam because it does show where you are but i also like it cuz if u die u can tell your team where they are lol.
 
Even more of the challenge for you....your enemy now knows where you are, but can you still dominate them? I say it should be left as is, i have no issue with it
 
it keeps the game moving, less campers.... killcam is built into DOD, and If that's the way the game comes, I don't think it should be taken out.

Shutting it off is server side.



I personally don't care about it anymore, I'm tired of making a fuss about it. If you like it great, if you don't its not really in the way. I don't even look at it half the time, I take a quick second to get a breath.
 
Kill cam did not come from DODS. They added it last year after TF2 came out. Many features from TF2 were added to DODS, including achievements. :crying:
 
When the Palermo update was initially released, which is the update that brought DOD to the Orangebox engine, we had this debate. We had a huge poll and the majority voted to keep it, so here it stays. As far as the sniper server, I do not believe it is activated on this server, it usually just gives you a general direction if my memory serves me correctly.
 
I hate when people know where I am, but, Killcam should stay as is because I love knowing where my enemies are.
 
Ya i know what you mean. Sometimes you love it, others you don't. I do agree with the fact it does keep the game running and moving which is a good thing.
 
personally i hate kill cam made it into a newb fest... hey i just got snipped and it came from this window in this corner all the way in the back.... insert rocket.... wow that took no skill and i got a kill
part of the fun of the game was figuring out where a sniper was or an mg part of the game is camping and basically it took that part out i vote it goes
 
tbh, sniper server doesn't zoom, all it does is look in the general direction of where you are which you could be behind 1 of 100 different trees or snow hills, or anymap ur on lol. and i highly doubt that will be turned off in any case, so bear with it, and keep on snipin, gives you a hard challenge for people who need it lol, <<< me :P
 
What I agree is that the kill cam comes with an advantage and disadvantage. Though,it gets angry when you're a sniper and you kill someone and they know where you are :facewall: :facewall: :facewall:

It's fine, you should be making enough racket so they would find you anyway.

"Drop your weapons, drop your weapons" *Thompson shots*

And I personally like to move as a Sniper, staying still makes me less active and I cant do fast shots as good. But that's just me.
 
I dont like it, but i think i have the perfect solution - Read below

I think the Kill Cam should stay in existence, however, snipers, rocketeers, and machine gunners will be restricted from using the Kill Cam, as in if they get killed, they wont be able to see who shot them.
Whereas the Assault Class, Rifle Class and the Support Class, will use the Kill Cam, this will hopefully also increase the need to use teamwork, i.e communcation about the enemy's wherabouts, it will also bring the DoD eGO community closer together.
Im not sure whether this is possible to implement or not, but give me your thoughts.
 
Killcams are really great since you have a chance on where they are at... and even without killcams people would still figure out where they are camping or anything, plus you have the perfect opportunity to take a snapshot...
 
Games that don't have kill cam are games like Insurgency that emphasize on being realistic. As for DOD:S where you can walk away from a shot to a head or take a full clip and still walk, I don't think disabling kill cam would make game play any better or different. The only it matters is in the sniper server, and it is deactivated there last time I played. Besides, if it isn't a sniper server, then the only people that are really effected by the kill cam are the campers.
