where the revive camera goes...
 

i must say again, again that the "you are killed" camera gives you too much vision of what's going on, say, you see a tank, and choose AT kit, you see bunch of soldiers, you pick MG kit, or throw a grenade at them after you spawned.

how about getting the revive camera back for infantry?(bring back the revive time thing(of vanilla BF2) while of course no revives)

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

I am for and even against this idea=p.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

I'd suppose black screen after death.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

Oh hell no! Really, think of the news reports "FH2 steals PR's black screen of death" and the like...

But seriously the devs dindn't make all those candy graphic just so we couldn't see'em for a big part of round (at least in my case - the rambo who lasts 10 seconds).

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

I like the incapacitated cam on some servers. I don't why it's been replaced with the "you were killed" camera on the ragdoll that was once a living - virtual ofcourse - soldier.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

It's not a replacement. There are two states: incapacitation and death. As far as I can see, the camera acts exactly as in vanilla BF2. You can check it out for yourself.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

We had a black screen on death in early internal versions. We removed it because it's trivial to turn off on the client; people would likely find this and overstate the importance of being able to see a bit of the sky as an unfair advantage.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

If they could make the camera automatically follow other players after death. If not, it'd be better the way it is. I don't want to wait 15 seconds looking up in the sky, then I'd rather have the enemy know where I'm heading sometimes.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

I like having the screen play out the way it does.


If it didn't I would never know what the maps I play look like... :)

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

I'm against black screen, it's a bit boring to watch a black screen 20 seconds :p

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

The revive camera is a server setting, don't blame us if they don't use it

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

Its fine how it is, what with the spawn delay times and all.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

plus the "disable all sound out- and input" feature to be 100% sure you cannot get any information while you are "dead". oh, and not to forget that you cannot switch to desktop and maybe read some information on TS...
that game would be really cool...

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

not really, but it's sometimes annoying when you are sneaking, someone appears at front of you, you kill him, hide yourself.... and the next thing you see is the same guy with SMG spraying at you, just because he knows where you hide.

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

yes its really annoying, so i like it allot and this is a realism mod so i think it need to be in this mod, would be a nice feature!:D

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

we had black death screen in the first internal betas
and it was boring as hell
sure you cant see what happens close to your dead body and cant "spy" that way but seriously
waiting 15 or more seconds and just staring at a black screen is a big turn off imo.
On maps like tobruk there the British die fly flies in the MG,Arty,Tank fire of the Germans and you die 5 or more times in a row without doing much you dont have much fun staring at a black screen.

You should change positions ;)

Re: where the revive camera goes...
 

On the second thoughts I agree that black screen would too boring. But what about automatic switch to 3rd person cam of a teammate (like "c" key)?
