The Battlefield Recorder, when you can actually finally record a file or download one, is neat. But it's missing several important features...
1. Rewind. Yes, harder to program, but rewind and replay is the whole point of recording a battle. It would also make movie-making easier.
2. A map. Something like the commander map except you see both sides. Or maybe you can "be" one side, and see what actions the commander took (UAVs, spotting, etc).
3. Jumping to any player from a list. Instead of having to jump from one player to the next.
4. Camera focus on a group of players. Instead of being able to focus on only on player, you should be able to select 2 or more, and the camera will focus on the center-point of the group. Good for following a chase or squad.
5. Different chase modes. I remember even X-Wing had this. Sort of like the camera view modes already in the game while you play it.
6. Record in-game chat? I mean just the text messages, but voice would be cool too. That might be too instrusive though.
7. Missile view. Heck, bullet view.
8. A control bar, as an optional replacement to using the playback rose. Those roses are kind of awkward to use.
Anything else?
