Great Idea, now snipers are like in real life almost as they dont get picked out easily anymore.

[Chuck.N0rris]

No, i will see where my killer is up to after my death to start chainkilling him emediatly.
Please dont change more things in this game!

Perhaps change the Kill-Cam to show them in 1st person view instead, and for a shorter period of time. Either way it lags on Kill-Cam and the 3rd person view of them is a dead give away.

It's time you lot manned up and grew a pair.

I agree totally

But maybe instead of following around the guy that killed you who could follow around one of your teamates kinda of like in Battlefront 2 because then you can see were a lot of the fighting is going on

Killcam is good for the gameplay, u have the change your position after killing a enemy. It just prevents "real camping", camping now is more "defending" a position.

edit ... and nobody can take a look at my cool outfit

The killcam, in its current state is has the same effect for campers as for people who flank and advance, as it follows the person the whole time. Honestly most of the time when I get the vengeance bonus its because it was practically handed to me by the killcam. The way the OP has proposed allows one to still root out campers with relative ease, but does not compromise players who are mobile.

Thought this was a great suggestion until I read ShureSh0t's comments. I agree, this should probably stay as it is.

The killcam is still important to snuff out campers but for campers, I don't think it needs to be focused on the killer the whole 10 seconds until we respawn. It's also pretty annoying knowing that despite how much you move after you kill an enemy, he will always have a strong chance bo be able to chase you off when he respawns, after all, not only he see's you the whole time until he respawns, but also the killer's name will be displayed for a small time after respawn, givving him feedback of the killer's position, even after respawn.

This could be solved by simply showing the killer's killcam for only 2/3 seconds, and then switch back to the dead corpse for the rest of the 5/6 seconds.
It would be something like:

-After death: 2 seconds for dying animation;
-Then: 3 seconds for killcam;
-Finally: the last 5 seconds from the dead corpse perspective (cool to watch a medic trying to revive you , or the rest of your squad getting slaughtered );
-10 seconds total.

This solution would not be that convenient at all for recons though. I mean, the bullet trail already gives them a hard time. No wonder Assault units could chase them off so EAsly. The ARs accuracy was not the only problem. So, zooming on the face like ShadyTex said, or somehow reducing the area of the killcam like buck suggests would also help.

In anycase, the killcam needs to change a bit, to stop showing enemy location totally until the end, or completely.

absolutely love that idea. but it will make it harder for people to seek vengeance

Lool people have plenty of opportunities to get their revenge even without killcam

Agreed on this one.
But I think the Kill-Cam should be a replay from the person who killed you POV.

[~PipooH~]

I agree on this, Kill cam destroy everything of planning a tactic assault. once u kill some1 he easy can see where u go and what ur next plan is.
I would say only show ur corpse on kill-cam for 3s and after that give us the oppertunity to select a spawn point that we control. this way u still can track the enemy for a short time and prepair yourself for your revange.
On this way you also can see if there is a medic nearby that might revive u. Most of times i get revived and i'm not ready yet to go in battle because i was not aware i would get revived in the first place.
