I know a way that you could make a killcam (not exactly as thought though). When a player dies, he/she could spectate who killed him/her for at-least 2-3 seconds.

Well, you could do that, or (if possible) play back a demo shot of when the player got killed from the killers perspective.

But you have heard, that demos are for servers not clients. So it's best to spectate than doing a demo :3

Still IMO the killer point of view killing you is pretty cool!

We used to do that, it would spectate the person in third person. But with the demo idea, the client could download the 3 secounds of being shot and killed, which should be around a few KB then since clients can play back demos they could play it. But only if the server allows clients to download demos.

It would be better to do client-side recording and then replay it (less bandwidth).
