We have changed some of the servers to Kill Cam Off and some of Kill Cam On.

What are your thoughts? We have heard over the last couple of days the Positives and Negative of Kill Cam.

on, off would just promote camping

I like it on - it lets me know where I need to look for a set of dogtags.

OFF.


I absolutely HATE the fact that someone I just killed can not only see where I killed them from, but more importantly sees EXACTLY where I am going when I displace after killing them. IMHO, the 3D spotting - when a team actually uses it - is more effective at digging out campers than Kill Cam.

Edit: Sleeve's post is a prime example (sorry Bro )...

ON



When I want to respawn on a squad member I want to be able to see what I'm respawning into.

Perhaps...but I am almost to the point of NOT playing on kill cam servers because it infuriates me so. Absolute crap that a dead enemy player gets to see not just where they were shot from but where you are going.

If it was like COD (hehe, sorry for the COD reference in a BF game ) where it showed the remaining seconds up to and including the kill shot, but nothing after, then I could deal with it.

[Banzai_Bandit]

On...

Banzai

[{FKR}DogOne]

on

for three reasons:

1 - the respawn time defaults to 10 seconds rather than five, and thats a long time in game
2 - i like to see what i'm spawning into
3 - if the kill cam is getting you killed, then you're probably camping and deserve what you get...

DO, you couldn't be farther from the truth...


As I have pointed out, up to the kill shot I am fine with. The free intel of your movements AFTER the kill shot is not.

I will be avoiding any and all kill cam servers as I can...

ON promotes Team Work through spawn, moves the game alone smoother and organized

OFF takes away the Gay Blade.
Knife teaches a noob a lesson and is a good self defensive weapon

ON or OFF......Take less meds (more for RT) and enjoy BFBC2 for what it is...A GAME

Exactly.

Avoiding Kill Cam servers just because they can see where you're going? So what? Just kill them when they come back! Besides, you really need to stop camping RT.

Our aim as FKR should be to get our servers full and as the spawntime is less when killcam is on, then I'm sure more people would want to play on those servers as its less of a pain having to wait less, plus knowing you're not going to jump to an immediate death when you choose to spawn on a squad member helps as well.

If having kill cam on keeps our servers busy, then so be it.

ON or OFF I could care less. I move around too much for it to be of any consequence. So best of luck for trying to find me. And, if they're camping, i'm gonna find their tags anyway...

[{FKR}Rabid Turtle]

Yep, it is a game...a game I paid for and will play to my liking...

I think the BC2 kill cam is just like ass nades in COD...you get rewarded for dieing. Pure noobtastic gheyness. As I have stated several times, if it just showed the kill shot and nothing after - no issue. But I absolutely loathe the fact that a dead enemy gets rewarded with free intel on where you are displacing - or just as important - situated trying to cap a flag or defend a M-COM.

I will still support FKR servers but if I have a choice between a populated kill cam server or one without, I will most assuredly play the non kill cam server regardless of who operates it.

Well i have put off making a choice in this till i had a chance to play on the no kill cam servers and i have to say it's much better. Yes it's sometimes frustrating trying to figure out where that sniper or camper is hiding but i think in the end it's better no more free knifes for the person who got killed.

so i vote for kill cam OFF
