I know this will be a huge controversial topic , so i will just request the developers to add a kill cam to differenciate between legal players or cheaters , at least i shuld know by which style im dying , a short kill cam would be enough. the downsides will be info from attackers positions and the current buggy state of the game. also i know a lot will complain since its immersion breaking
A 10 Sec Final KILL CAM
Yeh you hit the nail on the head:
EVEN if it can be used to catch cheaters a kill cam will do more harm then good.Also I can't even begin to imagine how laggy and bad the feedback would be from said killcam with current server performance you would think the person that killed you was cheating with all the lag from the killcam lol.
The issue with kill cams is that it is doing a live playback of what just happened, effectively re-rendering it in the different perspective. It's not just taking a video of what the other player did and just showing that to you. This has major impacts on game/server performance, which is not good, but the real issue is the level of bugs and inconsistency in something like a killcam. I mean dear lord you think that just playing the game has a lot of hitreg and bugs, a kill cam would magnify that ten fold. For a killcam to really work well, the entire game needs to be developed with it's future implementation in mind. If an absolute code engineering powerhouse like Riot games (who make LoL and Val, two ultra optimized games with fantastic netcode) can't easily make a replay viewer in Val, Rare has no chance.
@veronik5682 I don't agree with this argument, the bad netcode of SoT should be a point of contention and shouldn't be simply written off. I think it'd be a positive for the game to let people actually recognize how bad it is. Tho from Rare's perspective, terrible idea.

@megatron7185 If you need a kill cam to know whether or not they were cheating, they were probably not cheating
Your own player view can miss out on what's happening a lot of the time in the heat of combat.
I have been calling for a killcam for ages, one that is downloadable after your gaming session. Like battlerecorder for BF2.
I have submitted many reports and half the time they ask for more evidence, how else am I to provide more evidence other than the video I submitted, it's quite a stupid system.
They want us to catch and report hackers, then give us better tools to work with other than our own fp view.

You are obviously not too versed of the cheats out there.
Cheating isn't only about flying around the map dropping Athena kegs..@veronik5682 I’m actually very well versed in the cheats out there as you can just google the features they currently have. Keg flying isn’t one of them btw
99% of cheaters rage cheat in sot. Barely anyone closet cheats
