It's... not easy at all to add something like a kill cam. There's a lot that goes into it. You basically need to track everything going on all the time in the game, constantly capture it, use storage (whether client side or server side) to store this data, and then make it playable both in the client for players to see and in the server so whatever game moderators they hire to overlook that system can review it later if someone gets reported.
Would it help? Yes. Would it solve everything? No. Is it as easy as 123? Definitely not.
Im sorry but you are obviously not a programmer either if you think that killcams in a BR could work like Shadowplay with the tech of this day and age. NO kill cam can continuously record the last minute or so each and every player on each and every server. Thats just not how kill cam works, either in PuBG, Overwatch or COD. How it works is pretty much how the old Quake replay files did, i.e. it collect data so the game can reproduce the events locally.
And here is where my knowledge of programming ends, because for some reason that I cant explain, pretty much NO kill cams in previous BRs have been able to reconstruct 100% accurate replays. In fact, the introduction of kill cams in PUBG actually made the hack-suspicions even worse since people didnt understand this limitation with kill cams. The crosshair recoil for instance, would look much smoother and controlled in the replay than in reallity (trust me, I compared a reply with a recording and so much was just a little off).
My point is; kill cams should only be used to get a general idea what happened in a fight; players position, general movement, weapons used etc, but when players start using kill cams as a 100% proof what happened, then we are in trouble.
Facts, COD has had kill cams for so long now. This game has been out over a year and so many stupid problems still extremely aggravating!
