Anybody ever spectate people after they die? It's pretty funny sometimes watching lower level players do lower level player stuff. Kind of cute haha.

@Cheese9Man they turned their hacks off because they were being spectated lol.That happens to me sometimes too. I would come at an angle, slide and jump across them and somehow they would hit me in the head twice and a shot to the body with a wingman, killing me. I think my aim's pretty good but shots like that are ridiculous. I then spectate them and their aim is below avg. and I wonder "how the hell??". Trips me out.

@OldTreeCreeper yeah for sure. I will spectate teammates if they tried to get my banner too. Moral support 🙂

@swift07 Oops, my bad....those were supposed to be two different scenarios.One was the person that knocked me with god like skills, and then when watching him he barley knew up from down and was struggling just to do simple tasks (pull out shield cells etc)2nd was my random teammate that went down and actually said that over his mic. But Im pretty sure i was paired up with a duo team and maybe he forgot i was listening. I reported him for hacking.

@swift07 Some of the players that kill me has the skill-level of a #10 pred then if you spectate them they devolve into a bronze level player and can’t even loot. I guess I’m just salty sometimes. LOL.

Pretty much only when I want to see how the situation develops. It's always fun to see the third party, that would have come in to kill us, destroy the team that got us instead. Sometimes I can find myself rooting for one team or the other that were fighting when I died. Occasionally someone is sus and I'll watch for a while to consider reporting. I used to run into more players obviously using turbo fire on strike packs, but I haven't seen it much recently.

@pandareno1999 yeah, a lot of the times I spectate to see if there's any sus stuff happening or to see what happens with the third party.

@swift07 if someone has made an effort to try and get my banner or has my banner and can't respawn me I'll stay watching to support them.
Less often I'll watch an enemy player, but their play has to be really good for that.

@swift07 I spectated a player once that downed me in a way that made me feel suspicious. As I spectated him, His skill level was real low - he was then knocked and when down he says to his teammates "I got knocked because someone is spectating me and my hacks are disabled until he leaves."
Yes, he actually said that over his mic hahaha.....then once he was revived, starting shouting "stop watching me!"
LOL.
Pathetic.

@NickBeam27so they know when they're being spectated? That makes me wonder if people were hacking when they killed me and they knew somebody was spectating them, so they didn't use it. That one time where that guy shot me 3 times with the wingman was either incredible, sheer luck or...he was hacking. Just didn't make sense that I came around corner real quick, slid and jumped diagonally across him that he shot me in the chest and then shot me twice in the head (from death recap). He didn't even know I was on the other side (I knew because my teammate said he was right there) and for him to just turn and hit me three times like that was sus af. Probably hit my chest because I was jumping and then hit me twice in the head while I was back on the ground. They were just 3 tough consecutive shots for somebody that wasn't prepared for that. I spectated him and he was nowhere near that amazing.
