Spectating change
I just wanna say I think it would be nice if they bring back the spectator icon, also if when we die we could switch who we are spectating, like so I can spectate anyone in the game, I think that wou...
@E9ine_ACI haven't seen anyone complain about it, only that one day the icon got removed. My only guess as to why is so that cheaters can't tell they're being spectated, however cheaters have cheats that gives them back the counter AND tells them EXACTLY who's watching them.
In other words, if cheater 1 squadwipes player 1, 2, and 3, and 3 stays to watch, cheater 1 would know they're being spectated by one player, and its player 3.
So, if the icon got removed for this reason only, cheaters had checkmated EA/Respawn long before they took out the icon.
Also, Fortnite still has the spectate icon, so the "preforming badly while being spectated" doesn't sound like it was a reason. Besides most of those players just do emotes while being watched instead of playing the game, which doesn't sound like "preforming badly while being watched" to me.
So, was the icon removed to prevent toxicity? Because if so, that's funny... players in Apex still spam sneak over deathboxes and do other things like emoting, as if the one they killed is watching, regardless if they are or not.
