Incident reports and round replays

[lemonsqueezer97]

On the main menu, there would be another tab titled "Rounds played". If one were to click on this tab, they would see a menu with a collection of incident reports on the left, and the report they are reading on the right. These incident reports are a complete recording of all of the events that happened within a match, written in a style similar to the rest of the SCP Foundation's works. For example:

Guard killed by 939 in micro room:
"09:53 | Security Agent (steam username) terminated with multiple lacerations to the stomach and cranium by SCP-939 instance 53 in Heavy Containment Zone Experimental Weapons Storage Room. Remains are currently stored within Area-05 morgue, soon to be returned to family members for treatment.

Wounded scientist escapes with a D-Class:
"09:35 | Doctor (steam username), wounded by an encounter with an instance of SCP-049-2, escapes to surface zone of Site-02 alongside D-(random numbers) ((steam username)). Doctor (steam username) immediately issued medical treatment and transferred to Area-05 for temporary residence and medical leave. D-(random numbers) immediately detained and transferred to Area-05 for temporary residence.

Scientist shot and killed by D-Class with an FSP-9:
"09:10 | Doctor (steam username) shot and killed by D-(random numbers) ((steam username)), who had prior to the killing illegally obtained a standard-issue security FSP-9 Personal Defense Weapon. Remains of the doctor are currently stored within Area-05 morgue, soon to be returned to family members for treatment.

However, on the bottom right of the screen there will be a button to switch the writing style to a more simple format. In addition, I realize this may be pretty hard to pull off. On the bottom right corner of the menu, there would also be buttons to rename the incident report and view a replay of the match. Selecting the former option would allow the player to view a video replay of the match. They can switch between the perspectives of any alive players, and can also enter into free-cam mode. Players can also change the speed of the game play, pause it altogether, and do some in general wonky-ass ♥♥♥♥ with the camera. Could be a useful tool for creating mini-movies of a sort. In addition, in the incident report menu reports can be searched for either by date they were recorded or by name, if they have been renamed. Players can also delete reports they deem to be unnecessary, or favourite ones they wish to access more quickly.

maybe not main menu, but maybe like an end of the match summary screen would be pretty cool, and maybe being able to check on it while the match is going on would be kinda nice.

+1 Close as it gets to a theatre mode I suppose. I'd still prefer a complete theatre mode any day over this.

i also just thought something like reading a report of what happened during the match written in the lab report style would be cool

would be cool if you could watch it while the match is going on but i think it would be either too short to read it entirely at the end of the match or makes the end drag on too long before the match restarts

This would be amazing, but I'm not sure how hard it would be to create. Would love to see it though

I could see an incident log being viable, just save it as a text file at the end of every round and delete older ones if they aren't favorited or something, but a round replay (like something similar to Rainbow Six Seige) might be pretty tough due to higher player count, larger map, etc.
