I'm loving the DFM thus far and can't wait for more stuff. Is there a way (or plan to develop a way) to be an "observer" in a multiplayer match?Specifically, will I be able to observe a dogfight (preferably a head-to-head dogfight) and be able to "trail" one player?asked by F. John
TL;DRA spectator mode is on the to-do list, possibly with open clients and an auto-spectator mode that could stream to Twitch and follow different players, without giving away information in competitive matches.
Yes, we are actually actively--on our list of things to do, is spectator mode. To allow people to come into spectator mode, and we were thinking it would be a really good way where maybe there's a couple of open clients where someone can just come in as a spectator.And we may even have an auto-spectator mode that we power up that could stream to Twitch and stuff like that, because it's definitely kind of fun. I mean we all around here right now are watching people play the game via twitch, and it's pretty informative. It's strangely engrossing.But our auto-spectator mode will do things like allow you to switch to follow different players and all that kind of stuff.So there you go, although before anyone starts [CONCERNâ"¢] forum threads, we will make sure that if that feature's enabled, it won't be in such a way that it could give away information in a competitive match that you wouldn't want to give away.
