Hey guys do you think the kill cam feature is causing extra lag in COD4 server 1? I noticed at close range if I am trying to kill 3 guys in a small room that the screen will jump and freeze for a split second due to kill cam causing a moment of lag. Why do we need that option anyways? Just asking not trying to disrespect the moderators of that server. It seems like an unnecssary load on the server. Does anyone actually look at kill cam?

Not noticed any plus it was voted in by the members unanimously.some like it some don't,it does not seem to be causing any problems and no one else has said anything.The server is good enough to run this too.

We just want to keep a real close eye out for anyone who may not be playing fair. I haven't noticed any lag issues with killcam, then again, my system is pretty ancient when it comes to CoD4. If it bothers you, just hit F, and you'll respawn.

Since it has been enabled, it has changed the dynamic of the game. We have less campers or whatnot. I don't necessarily think it hurts the gaming experience, but I prefer not to have it. Just my $.02.

Nope, no lag issues.

I prefer it on - like Barb said, eliminates campers

I've noticed it too, it's not just Red. If not lag, there is some delay happening.

I don't see a point in it. If someone is suspected of hacking, spectating works magic. You can do that right?

Seriously. I've been sensing some minor lag issues myself but hadn't associated it with Killcam until now. I'll try to keep a sharper eye on it and see if I can do some research on the issue.

But as many have already said, it was voted on and the massive majority agreed to turn it on. If I fin that it is indeed causing lag issues though, that might change.

it sucks when im trying to snipe cause ill get a really good spot and kill cam reveals that its stupid plus it makes it more realistic your not supposed to know where the sniper is shooting you from

A REAL camper uses a tent, not an RV. No electronics whatsoever.



Common, years and years of camper complaints. I don't do it as usually one can double a campers score by runnin' and gunnin'. Camping, the same as martydom... is a part of the game. Once you have played a few maps, you can usually make a good guess as to where a camper is sitting. They are simply knife bait. I can't tell you how many campers in prone I have knelt down next to and knifed as well. Its more fun for us runners anyway. I don't need a kill cam to know where they are hiding.

All the hackers are still playing well but not winning every round by a land slide anymore - that's all. Wink

still havent got the try the server yet, but Have never liked Kill cams, how does that make it any more realistic, if some one is hacking spec them.
I dont like snipers but they are part of the game.
