Your mother is so fat, she tried to jump through Halo and got stuck.

Go check out ma file share. plz? lol

There is already one in Halo 2, when you die all you have to do is push " A " and it will go to who killed you, atleast it does in multiplayer.

No, that was rubbish, cause that ruins the point of a sniper...

You ahavea really good spot, then you kill someone and everyone knows where you are.... Its a silly idea!


if u were a good sniper you wouldnt stay in 1 spot 4 2 long you freaking n00b!!!!

Snipers should always be moving on Halo anyway. The tracer-like bullet gives away the snipers position either way.


Well looks like I don't have to post here, its already been said. I'll just make an edit, insert good in front of snipers :p

i think its a good idea. well its really a toss up.

1).king of the hill, and everybody is in the hill, and there is a big explosin and kills everybody, wonna see diffrent views.it would come in handy.
2) oh no!! were facing modders, but they cant find me, but im a really good sniper, so im gonna snipe him.. BOOM!! head shot! okay now hes mad so he looks and sees the killcam, and now he knows where ur at.. Its really a toss up.. THEN U GET MOWED DOWN.

Rember kids. washing ur hands will help prevent u from truning into the flood.

It sounds pretty cool but im not sure about it because like many other ppl have said it would give away good sniping spots like hiding in trees :D

Lol wow I can't believe so many people stay still in sniper matches. I voted yes btw.

Ya, i happen to be one of the greatest snipers on live. (im honestly not kidding, add me to ur friends list if u want me to prove it, see name below) and that really does kill the point of a sniper. I mean i have a 360, i play CoD 2 and i HATE the kill cam. Because then they know where you are, much n00b.

So are we talking about saving these videos to watch them later? Including the entire game from every perspective? That's a lot to save on one Xbox. 20 gigs will only give you a week or two if you play consistently.

  • 06.01.2006 9:22 PM PDT

Does the camera really have to be from the killers view? Why not just have it from an observers standpoint. That would solve your problems.

I guess if you had the ability to turn it off, then it would be ok. but i don't want people to see how i kill someone during a ranked game. lots of time ill know someone is coming and ambush him. half the time he doesen't know what happened. a kill cam would ruin that. it gives away too many of your tendancies and strategies.

  • 06.01.2006 9:34 PM PDT

How couldn't they figure out your tendancies and strategies anyway? Its not like your just sitting in a corner waiting the whole game. And if you do, someones going to find out where you are right after you kill them.

"You have been measured, you have been weighed: And you have been found lacking."

Yes it would be nice to know the DIRECTION of which you got killed, but not a kill camera like in GRAW.

Oh dear me that is so annoying

Look, everyone, this is so simple to solve.

Disable kill-cam for sniper kills...

case and point.

Sure saving things to a hardrive for veiwing it later or even possibly saving it on servers sounds like a great idea, but it is far too impractical and a lot to ask for. The in game kill-cam would work just fine, just take it away for sniper kills, and maybe, just maybe, kills inside a base during objective matches (AKA CTF, Assualt) The reasoning behind this is that it is sometimes essential to be sneaky inside a base to steal the flag or plant the bomb, and the cam might just take away too much from that stealth.

Well here's also an idea, How about in your player profile, you can turn off the kill cam depending on stuff like what kind of kill it is. So basically you can either keep your self secret or show you skill off.

BTW the menu could look like.

Kill Cam Menu
----------------------------------------
|...Sniper Kills.....|....Off ....|
|...Rocket Kills....|....On.....|
|...Shotgun Kills..|....On.....|
etc

Or I still suggest only using this feature in Unranked or Custom Games. Keep it out of ranked games.
