Can we PLEASE remove the kill cam.

Why did this need to be implemented? You always see who kills you anyway. It only helps against snipers and that's not fair to them. They got the kill fair and square but to help the player who died out he/she gets to see where the killer? How is that fair?

Regardless of snipers, it's damn annoying to see; I don't need to be reminded of how unfairly I died.

I'd play Pro mode but others don't touch it.

I think it should be made into a module. That would make it more fun.

You need to get all the way to LV 39 ?_? What a waste of time. I levelled up that far for the gauss and that weapon made me sad.

The buggy and glitchy killcam only causes frustration.

I don't think Killcam is much of an issues unless the game is unusually lag, which is quite rare in my opinion..

There is no way they are going to remove killcam. I like it and I think it's asking for too much to be fair

They should give us the option to turn it off in the options menu.

I think it should module to block the Killcam if you are sniper. That would be cool.

How would you possibly remove the kill cam from the game now? lol I like the kill cam, gives me an insight of how i got whacked, that way I can get better at looking out for similar kill-attempts.

that sounds like a good option.
I kinda like the kill-cam. Sometimes i get killed by people i don't even see since I'm occupied with another enemy, but i really have 2 or 3 shooting me. And sometimes it is entertaining to watch my enemy miss his shots or melees and somehow still manage to kill me. sometimes frustrating, especially if I'm one kill away from ceph airstrike, but if I'm in a good mood I find it funny. Or as stated above It is good to find snipers with.

The whole point of things like killcams is that they discourage campers, particularly sniper campers. Its all to easy for someone to have a silenced sniper rifle and be almost completely masked the entire match if they are positioned in vantage points. In Crysis the focus is on fast paced team gameplay, killcams & no-prone speed up the overall gameplay. Without things like killcams, games devolve in to camp fests on both sides. Its happened before with many previous CoD and MoH titles.

I'd rather have a module only for the DSG-1 to block the kill cam. If the player was smart and used his/her ACTUAL SKILL then he/her should be able to find the sniper. There are no kill cams in real life is there?

You want things that aren't in real life removed from Crysis?? It's gonna be a very dull game!

As i understand it, the issue is not you seeing the killcam, it's when your victim sees your killcam and thus, your location. You turning off the killcam in your options is not going to effect your victims ability to use killcam. There is a server-side CVar that allows the disabling of killcams but this prevents the server from being ranked.

I think it should be made into a module. That would make it more fun.
"Eye of the beholder"? :D Doubt anyone would waste a module slot on a kill cam though!

I like the kill cam as it reminds me on how shabby the network coding is.

You see yourself shooting center mass on the target although when you are watching the cam you see that you are shooting into nothing but air and the target is to the left or right of you putting two round into you and its all Déjà Vu once again.......Lag anyone?.

Killcams have been unreliable in every FPS I have ever played...it's just to give you an idea what happened, not to be used as evidence in court! ;)

This may be true to a degree although the point I am making still and will be present until......
(A) I stop playing the game & trade it in for something else......
(B) Crytek patch up there shoddy network coding......
(C) I persevere with jumping in and out of lobby`s until I find a host I can connect too.
(D) Put a region filtter in the search option (May help drop your ping down if not trying to connect to someone on the other side of the world)

The above options I should not have to do too enjoy a game were everyone as a fair advantage on the playing field.....

My other and last choice (for me is) I am changing my ADLS connection to FTTC this week then I may have a better consistency with my gaming?who knows I may even host a game and see how everyone else deals with shooting sponge balls at there targets?.

Sorry I am really pissed as I can see how this could have been a good game but only a few are seeing this,the rest of us have to do the above options......

Lets see the patch notes for Xbox, according to a certain person who works for Crytek who posted on this page said that the notes are coming soon!

at previous post

I'm switching to 8M/bits ( only working at 5 and has a current .4Mbit and the ping is somewhere between 50 and 100 ms with a server in my town which is crud...) and I have already played with it online and it is bad, I die after i walked behind a wall etc i shot first yet i died first etc, at least a good improvement to the netcode should make it more enjoyable... I mean we know now that you don't need to release a patch for it to get better so it shouldn't be hard... can't a company like DICE or something give out lessons or tips?
