Kill Cam
« on: February 05, 2014, 08:55:13 pm »
Gonna say right away: this idea is not important so don't even consider to work on it please until like 2015 ^^

Can we have a kill camera, so ie. when either you kill a mob, or you get killed (by a mob, or by a player, or by whatever (electric fence)), you get to watch it for like 5 seconds in slow motion like a little movie from some angle? It would be very entertaining i think (could even make a whole youtube video in the future, like "1000 ways to die" or something you know.

For those who do not want their time wasted with such a thing, have an option to turn it off.

thoughts?

Sounds like a neat "stretch goal" to me, though I'm not sure how often I'd really use it.

Good idea.
For several reasons there has to be time lapse between death and rebirth.
You can spend it by simply staring at your dead corpse from above, or it can be filled with something entertaining.

Well as far as gameplay goes, i think its pretty useless, but i was just thinking of Call of Duty pvp, every death has killcam, unless its hardcore mode or something like that then its turned off, i was just suggesting it purely for entertainment

But it's true that having nothing to look at while waiting for the revive bot is awfully boring; so being able to see the strike of the hit that killed you from different angles could be much more entertaining! 8-)
