Kill replays

Love the new replays. It is so refreshing to see proof of cheating.  I can handle being killed because your tick rate is crap. The replay shows that I wasn't where I thought I was in those cases. But when you see bullets get 100%headshot rate and the aim is +50 degrees off target, or seeing confirmation of bullets travelling through or around walls , I'm sure glad you folks have anti cheating mechanisms in place. Love the fact that my console still crashes when I try to report. That was my favorite feature of S18. I'm glad you kept it. Keep up the great work. Your commitment to providing a fair and enjoyable experience really shows!

    @Aldebera Hey, I do also love this system. Not at all saying you do not come across cheaters we all do at some point. Just do keep in mind that there is a spectate delay. You are not seeing it fully in real time due to this lag. So at times it can make it look like someone is not looking at you in the replay. So while the replay is awesome there is that problem of the spectate lag. This delay is across the board. Ranked, pubs, mixtape. Even when watching someone and their reticle is going crazy when they ads that is a spectate delay visual error. Just an example on how it can be seen in some situations.

    When Halo introduced a killcam it was the exact same problem. Notoriously laggy and not showing anyone anything like what actually happened. Yet another nice idea which ultimately creates more problems than it solves, imo.

    I got the knife kill in a Gun Run game tonight, and the final kill cam was of some guy shooting someone else with an Eva 8 lmao.

    What I like about the kill cam is that you can see how random your death was sometimes. I was in a heated battle with a player tonight, seemed like I should have won it but I figured they just bested me a little bit. Turned out that I was killed by one Prowler bullet by some guy from an off-angle.  🤔

    Also, I tried to make a quick movement play on one guy, but my hipfire lost all semblance of competence.  From his angle, I was so bad that it didn't even really look like I was trying to shoot at him!

    @Aldebera Yeah we play online we all have a latency called ping this is not real life OMG I understood that the first day I played the game of course you have to factor in lag try to shoot earlier and move earlier so you get an edge.

    Is there something specific you need to do or in settings to be able to see the kill cam? I haven't had one yet, not sure how to see them. Can't find anything on the screen to activate. 

    Can anyone help me out? 

    Please and thank you.

    I wouldn't have a problem with it if they would ban cheat users properly and quickly with it...
    Actually, it's a good attempt, but I don't think it's working very effectively, because it just shows a screen where the cheat user gets beat one way or the other, and it's hard to ban users who are clearly using cheats....
    Since you made a good feature, I wish you could have made it more effective, precise, and quicker to eliminate cheaters.
