When you guys die, there is a really devious use for the kill cam. If you get to the point where you know the maps like the back of your hand, you can just look at someone's kill cam and figure out their location based on landmarks, etc, spawn, then charge forth to them and let loose righteous fury on their sorry soul.


During team play, you can use it to give an approximation as to where a team or even a certain member may be, and if you have named areas of the maps, direct people around or to those places.

Well, yeah.  Not to mention I'm gonna bumrush that spot immediately after I die in a DM to make sure you get finished off.

Sorry but did you realize that just now _

[nokari]

Were people somehow not already aware of this stuff_ We've been doing this stuff since the kill cam was first introduced.

I love when people place radar items while the kill cam is still on, I just come back and step on it.

New players bro. New players. A few people I have been talking to were not aware of this obvious thing.

[DerMax]

Duh.

They'll figure out on their own sooner or later, just like everything else that's a useful skill in Hawken. That's how you become an experienced and formidable pilot.

We had  recently a lot of new players, this advice is super useful, you´d be surprised about how people don´t realize a lot of things that seems to be super obvious.

Anyway, We never saw a posts on the forums giving an advice about how to use the exploit of the boost/shooting... oh nevermind... wrong post.

Every one of you was a noob once. Is it that hard on your ego to let somebody have the excitement of discovering something for themselves_

[LoC_TR]

You can step on items to kill them!

And not just Hawken, but since the first killcam was introduced in ANY multiplayer game...

[Z3roCool007]

Oh so you like using the killcam to you're advantage_

I like killing people and using that to my advantage.

[driedjello]

The best thing to do with the killcam is to make the departed watch while you pop a cap in more of their teammates.  bwa ha ha!
