Remove killcam or at the very least adjust it

I feel like showing where and who killed you is a bit too much considering how quickly you can switch to someone who is alive in your squad. At the very least remove the red outline that shows the enemy through foilage and don’t focus on him, making it a bit more difficult for the enemy to react after dying and taking control of another soldier.

yes! and only hint is, where the bullet came from

But youre taking over for a guy who obviously just saw you get shot, he should have an idea as to where the bullet came from.

(the damage direction indicator)

Yeah an idea where the shot came from, not a highlighted enemy who is sitting in a bush and isn’t very visible to the naked eye,
Especially if the guy you’re taking over wasn’t facing the shooter

I disagree since this will literally promote camping corners & some other spots a lot more easier, with the current flow of the gameplay it promotes aggressive play & even without it the life duration of player or his squad members is very short anyways.

Considering also that that player could just keep his squad in protected area nearby & after he get killed get another one into that position.

yes, i agree with @61709115 campers should change position after each kill

If you want campers to change position after each kill, the best way is to keep the current system of highlighting the enemy after dying to them

Currently capture zone camping is encouranged thanks to the engineer. With this a sniper playstyle would become more balanced, as right now sniping is entirely unviable as people find you pretty quickly

yes, mechanics are good as they are

Im not saying as it is good as it is, as fire support (aka sniping) is discouraged.I personally really enjoy sniping and would hope that there would be a little bit more incentive to snipe

you can shoot the last soldier that goes, without player noticing

Yes +1, its annoying when you reach a good flank spot and kill someone and than they come and rush you due that killcam.

like if someone could snipe down whole squads and go away unnoticed? irl it doesnt work like that bro

Well it did, multiple times. Snipers went into hiding places, and than assassinated high ranking officials. German snipers were especially proficient in this. Or looking at Simo Häyhä, over 500 kills with sniper and multiple times he went in unnoticed and left unnoticed.

You are drawing out my point a bit, my point wasnt anything about being “unnoticed” it was about the killcam, irl when you get shot you dont get a killcam, its just poof and you are dead.

you must’ve known vasiliy zaitsev, the hero of stalingrad right?

after germans were certain of his exist, they sent kind of bounty hunters on him

Same with Simo Häyhä, but thats wasnt the point from the beginning, my point was about the killcams. Which ruin hiding spots, irl people have to actually use their senses like eyesight, hearing and intuition to figure out enemy positions, they dont get any killcams after getting shot and than transferring to another body and rushing that spot where the game showed the enemy location.

agreed. I really dislike the killcam as right now it is better to just run at a squad while spraying an SMG until they are all dead as in that case you arent giving the enemy time to respond. Sniping should be rewarded, not discouraged.

the game has to be kept fun for the begginers and people with trash FPS (i play at 20) its just **** stupid that you lose your whole squad to a single sniper which kills you when you try to move your squad away

Building a game for 10% of the playerbase is a terrible idea
