eSports Camera Management & More :)

Hi there,

As I watch these tournaments as they are broadcast, I keep thinking to myself, why don't they have better action tracking management for announcers, etc.

The feel of the game is kinda like modern day Running Man, being broadcast to viewers by Brisk

It'd be programmatically easy to detect when there are, say, 3 or more players in a given space, when shots are fired, when someone takes damage, etc, and focus camera on these players.  It'd be even cooler if there were camera points in corners and other places so that it could show action from an external perspective.  That would look the cleanest, but setting the cam points manually would be a chore, maybe use a smart algorithm for that.

There would be question of cheating, so these tools should only be available in certain situations like eSports broadcasts.

I see Apex as the future in eSports.  Why not be the first developer to really embrace that community with special tools to support it.
