A first person "ragdoll" death camera, you can only see like you are in fps until you spawn.

    It was a server option in Counter Strike. It would be just as important for serious NS2 matches.

    I think it would be kewl if we kept the spectate on death, except moved camera to IP and did not let players move it. Would make players able to look around the spawn before spawning, making spawncamping harder.

    If ppl want realism we can call it downloaded sensory data fine views before stepping into battle.

    Wrote this on my nexus one.

    EDIT:
    Its nexus, not nexxlus Mr. Spellcheck :p

    I don't have a problem in general with spectating, but this would be a great compromise if full spectating gets disabled.

    I'd support this if its combined with the ability to choose your spawn location. Let people toggle between different eggs/ip's where the camera view transports the dead players view to the selected egg/ip.
