Make "kill cam" optional -> both killer & killed have to "opt in" to have it show

@OggeKing - I absolutely hear you about the grey zone, it is bad design and should also be removed or dealt with differently:

Paratroopers for exampe should be able to drop behind enemy lines, as they are supposed to do! It would also be much better if the enemy really is able to flank a team that is not careful and not be hindered by any grey zone from doing that - > so if the allied team lets tanks drive by and into their rear then something has gone seriously wrong and they deserve to be shredded to bits - next time they will be more careful!

But again: without a kill cam, players should work for their kills and not be awared for mistakes.

(btw I am and always have been someone who actually MARKS enemies when he sees them to help the team → that is the way to go and let fellow players know where the enemy is or where they have to be careful as this actually promotes teamplay, something the “kill cam” does not…)

So both “greyzone camping” and “kill cams” make for unfun games in my humble opinion → so remove grey zones (useless) and kill cams (one can mark enemies in a teamplay way).

Sure mate. In the meantime, keep getting upset other players can shoot back at you while you hide in your safe place.

Here’s a GOOD suggestion idea to help your insecurities:

“Introduce a new 16 points PERK that would disable the killcam for the equipped soldier?”

  • plain yes

Or

  • plain no

That’s how you make a non biased suggestion.

I was very angy when I wrote the poll after constantly taking the time to move into position with my guys, covering an objective, only to get whiped out 100&% of the time by guys that previously just ran past me not looking right or left → I actually tried to edit the poll 10 minutes later after posting, but alas that is not possible (for obvious reasons as one could manipulate it otherwise).

@Conscript_Joe - That said you get that the kill cam is just some ego trip for people who do not look around? Marking enemy is teamplay, kill cam is not. And no I do not play only snipers and the posting came after I lost all my common infantry/assaulters close to the objectives due to only ONE thing and that is the bloody kill cam. You get that. Oh and I do not play the tanks very often, hardly ever actually, as I prefer the infantry. While I do play snipes (mainly due to my old eyes having an easier time to see) I never get lots of kills because I am mostly busy marking for the team (my reflexes are not what they used to be either). So do not assume you know what and how I play. If you like the “kill cam” and want your revenge kills and feel entitled to it, that is on you.

Bullshit. The only one would benefit from this are them… tracers give away your position along with the directional damage indicator when flanking anyway.

So because you got butthurt. This is the same with a lot of other controversial suggestions here… join the pile.

Polls need to be worded in a neutral way, this clearly breaks the rules as it is worded in a biased way, even if it does have a no option
