Support action replays in online matches
An option to have action replays in an online game. This feature is available in offline games and usually happens when a player makes multiple kills or calls a replay manually using the R key. I imagine it was disallowed from happening online due to network code and keeping the game short, as was the parachute being removed from crate drops.
The feature would be best as an option, which would be disabled by default. The host should be able to cancel an action replay using Escape.
I ask for this option because many times have I wished, during games of Hysteria or Bow 'n' Arrow, that I could see a shot again, and we could make fun of and call names at the victims.
What would trigger an instant replay? Just the default conditions? How would they be skippable, if at all? To maintain sync, everyone should be seeing the same stuff. This is probably untrivial to implement even with the simplest answers to those questions.

i think this is useless as we have the replay files
