General Information

Understanding the Replay System

The replay system can be accessed from the main menu. This will list the replays that have been recorded of the matches you’ve been in. It is also possible to enter a replay ID code to access other replays.

Once you have selected a replay it will load up the associated game level and start playing back the match. There is a simple control panel that can be toggled using the F key by default, which allows you to scrobble through the replay’s timeline and pause the playback. Additionally, it displays the current playback speed and the keys that can be used to change it (by default, these are the Home and End keys).

A portion of the controls are not represented on screen at this time. They are available in the Binds settings menu and can be changed. They have been listed below in the Console Variables and Controls section.

Note that most of these additional controls are limited to the free-roaming camera mode. This mode allows you to gain full control of the camera and adjust its speed and focal length. To access this mode, you will have to cycle through the available modes using the spacebar by default. The available modes are first-person, third-person orbital camera, and free-roaming.
