Hello,I'm being annoyed by the systematic screen showing who killed you, where the soldier was, highlighting him for you etc.This does not combine well with the ability to respawn in 3 seconds and being rezzed by 63 players in less than this. It's like everyone is a good recon player through dying.I mean what is the point doing stealth gameplay and trying run tactics if, when you kill a player, he finds out where you were with zero effort and can get a revenge kill 3 seconds later ?It just makes no sense to me.Maybe just allow for a kill recap after match is over for the grumpies over there instead of an instant one ?Cheers

@killlluaaa i know this is a very difficult concept to grasp, but battlefield has always been an arcade-shooter first and not whatever this MilSim crowd wants it to be. if you dislike how the game is designed by DICE you have three options.1. Go and play on the 100000000% DMG get tagged dead killed IRL servers, there are more then enough to fullfill whatever you need there2. Play a game like Squd, Arma, Inscurgency or whatever else you fancy because there are a bunch of them out there.3. turn your monitor/TV off if you die so it doesn't bother you

@creepnpeepwhy exactly? i gave OP three options to fix his precieved issue. and lets be honest here... the killcam is not what kills "stealth gameplay and run tactics" its the fact that everything and everyone is constantly spotted in the game.Active spotting, sensor grenade, casper drone, Paik-sensor, shooting, vehicle spotters and tugs are constantly spotting you permanently on the minimap so any semblence of moving unseen is next to null and void... but the killcam... thats delusional

It's there to discourage campers.For every 'stealthy' player punished by this there's been 100 more outright campers that were also punished.It's worth the trade off.Move more. Camp less. Won't be as much of a problem.

@creepnpeep i am pretty sure the killcam has been in the game sice BC2 at the very least if not BC1 before that....a fair point would be to raise concern about the constant spotting... if you move and play with more then 2 braincells the killcam will not give the person you just killed any meaningful information beyond where you were when he died and even then by the time said player is back in the action be it by respawning or reviving, you should already have relocated... unless ofc you are sitting somewhere stationary.... if that is your playstyle then yes said killcam will get you killed...if you want HC go play HC be my guest, but saying "X is bad because its unrealistic" is just a sad attempt at raising a fair point

@X-Sunslayer-X That’s a bit of a * response

@killlluaaa Good point, the killcam and quick respawn make smart flanking whilst making kills a punishment to achieve. DICE did not thought through alot of things with this game.

@X-Sunslayer-X
Op raised a fair point.
And you responded like a *.
Simple.

Killcam was introduced because of all the cry babies that hated being killed and just HAD to know why, how and where they were killed from.
Basically players that had no idea how to actually work out where they were killed from - or were convinced they were shot through walls etc.

Killcam is one of many things that should never have entered a battlefield game.

But then that’s the difference between people that like to play on core servers and people that like a more hardcore experience.

I’m happy for people to play how they want and to be ABLE to play how they want, without dice forcing nerfs and aids on people.

You responded like a *, that’s all I was saying.

Not a fan of the kill cam. That being said, I have used it to report a many bug in the game.

@killlluaaa it's not that big of a deal but I personally preferred the old kill cam where the camera just pointed in the direction of the thing that killed you.
