What did you think about taking off the Killcam they had it on the beta then they toke it off
they never seemed to work on halo 4 maybe they just scrapped the idea all together
Kind of sad
The kill cam that they had in the beta was a good idea. Personally, I’d like to see how the other player killed me. It lets me see if I made any mistakes or if i could’ve played the confrontation a bit different. I see the kill cam as a way to improve my gameplay.
I just like the entertainment of watching myself do something stupid as the other player puts me out of my misery. I screw up a lot or just don’t care, so I am sure some of my deaths were hilarious to the person on the other end.
I do not mind a kill cam but in the beta there were just two issues I did not like with it.
-
If you were killed by a grenade the camera would follow that grenade, very annoying.
-
The subtle yet annoying music played in between spawns while watching the kill cam.
If they brought back the kill cam but removed those two problems then that would be fine.

I agree.
Omg their was a kill cam and they took it out?.
I was curious about that, last I checked, they said it could be turned on or off, turns out it was all OFF xD At least we have theater mode.
Lol, the kill cams were annoying and they don’t work, didn’t for that matter. If they couldn’t get those to work in time, it means they can’t do it. Plus, killcams take out the art of tea-bagging. Asking 343i to take out any more fun out of the game would be like slapping yourself across the face.
Never liked killcams. But what I do miss is the camera swinging to face the player that killed you. The camera sometimes swings round but just to a random location. Sometimes you just die and have no idea how, can be frustrating.
I hated the kill cam in the beta, glad it’s gone. It has no place in Halo. Glad 343I finally see that
I prefer watching my corpse get violated to watching how my life was dispatched.

Yes, we have theater mode but we can’t even record, unless I am missing something when I go into theater.
But with killcam, I am glad it was removed. I use that time to see where the players are and what is happening within the game. What I don’t like is not being able to switch between teammates right away, or being able to turn my deathcam around to look around the map while I am waiting to respawn. I miss that from Reach.

Agreed.
It’s rather frustrating to just die and have no clue where the person that killed you was so you have no ability to try and plan against dying that way over and over.
BF4 and a couple other FPS games did it right. You can have regular kill came that shows who killed you and from where and with what. And you can have Hardcore that doesn’t give you any information other then a name and weapon.
I think Halo 5 could do with having this issue re-examined and brought back into the fold.
i wasnt too sure about the killcam. i didnt play the beta but in halo 4 i wasnt too much of a fan of it. its an idea that needs to stay in COD.

This and it was good for finding campers and snipers.
I hate killcams. They give away your strategies some times.
For modes with longer respawn times, I would like it if they kept it. Obviously it wouldn’t work in something like swat (and would make that mode even more chaotic)
I think the issue is that once you see how someone killed you, you tend to want revenge immediately, and if they were hiding somewhere you now know exactly where they are.
I’d like it for some modes and not others.

this is true. i think for certain game types it could be a useful tool but in others it might not work as well either.
