Live battle spectator mode

Are you tired of constantly farming and playing, and just want to sit back and relax? Can't get enough of battle bay, but its dinner time? Introducing live battle spectator mode! This mode allows you to watch live battles as they happen, right from your friends' list!

Spectate battles from your guildmate/friend's point of view, see how they play their build in real time, without the hassle of depending on the odd shared replays (we all know the shared replays are cherry picked, don't we). Cheer your friends as they battle, let them know someone is supporting them by clicking on the 'cheer' button. You might even share your thoughts on how to improve their skills after the battle is over, or ask them how they played so well and learn a thing or two about the next boat / weapon you'd want to switch over.

This is battle bay TV, but in real time!

Edit 1: Live battle spectating should be in your friend's live view, so you'll be able to see their aiming reticle and see how they lead their shots (suggested by @Neptune_Gaming)

Edit 2 : Spectators should not be able to rotate the view of their friends ship, to prevent possible abuse of alerting the said friend of incoming danger from their blindspot via voicechat softwares (suggested by @Rango8)

 

Can we have it in their live view not in replay mode?So we can see how they lead their shots

 

Shoot Napalms into the sky when you cheer someone

 

haha too op

 

Distract everyone in the battlefield to look at all the beautiful fireworks!!

 

lol actually,
devs can we have that!!!!
it wont dmg anyone , just the napalm's flames will show the guildmate/ friend's name in the sky covered with flames
Sorry to disturb but @The Grim Repair ....
let it be attached to the ceiling . It would look dope and would give your teammate fighting spirit

@TheAntiSnipe,@CaffeinatedChris,@PastelPiku,@HARPO!,@StrictSalmon307,@Riddlerpaji,@CoolDownHSNA,@Hokuse,@wreck your day,@Help I Cant Swim,@LimeOnMars,@Mr. Chompers,@The Grim Repair or anyone else,what do u think about this live spectator mode?

 

You mentioned me!!

 

I was thinking of this. Just never made the thread.

 

Thanks for the support and votes guys! So far the response has been overwhelmingly positive, 100% votes towards being excited about this feature I predict ingame activity would increase alot if this is implemented. Since the battle bay replay has already been coded, live battle spectating shouldn't be too hard to code, probably just need to modify something here and there.

The only problem with live battle spectating is voice chat. So you should only be able to view your friends ship and not be able to spin the camera yourself.

 

Also you shouldn't be able to see from the enemy team's perspective while live spectating
