Suggestion to implement Kill Cam

Hello,
As a player who has recently started playing the game I have enjoyed it immensely and depending on how this goes I will give further suggestions in the future.

I am finding it difficult to become better at shooting, since the training at the shooting range is too easy compared to actually hitting players in-game. But I guess that will happen in due time.
What I really think would be useful or at the least very pleasant would be to add a kill cam. After spending so much time in one game looting, being careful and etc. it is a shame to just get killed really fast out of nowhere and that's it. What would really be nice is to see how the enemy killed me. I think the game would benefit a lot from a kill cam. Not only is it satisfying but that would help me learn how to shoot as well, seeing how the player who killed me did it. 
What does everyone think? I feel having such a thing would greatly increase my pleasure from playing the game.

    Before this thread, the developers had no idea what a kill cam (really a death cam) was, or that people wanted it.. but you have all added so much valuable education, they will surely add one now. LOL

    Sarcasm aside...

    This game has some unique challenges with respect to death cam..  Because when you are killed, you are not out of the game.

    The game would need to let you review all your deaths at the end of the game. Which is kind of complicated.... we'll probably just see nothing until full replays.

    You can actually get some insight into your deaths and gameplay by recording your death from your own viewpoint using NVidia ShadowPlay instant replay, or OBS replay buffer. You can then rewatch the video in slow motion using something like VLC Media Player. 

  • Yeah and it's so nice to see how low you got the other person, even after the whole squad dies I always want to know. It is like a consolation prize, like "oh it was so close, I got the other guy to 10hp" or whatever.
  • @Kuro466 I often want to see from a killer POV how it was, what they've done, and any record from my POV can't show this.
