Well I've noticed from frag videos that the "Critically wounded view" differs from player to player.

The standard view supposedly is the one where you find youself on your back looking up.

For some reason I never experience this.
Feels more like I instantly go prone and the hud crosshair and hud disappears.
Sometimes I don't even notice I'm critically wounded until I move the mouse and everything "twitches".

(It's actually a bit of an advantage since I sometimes can see where my nemesis is going)

So what's your situation, do you look up in the sky and wait for the white light to take you or do you "twitch" around like I do?

That's a negative.
I never look up when critically wounded.
Spawn beacon, Squad leader, normal base, it's always the same for me.

Never thought about things like that and am not able to describe what happens to me. I'm to busy with switching kits, adapting of equipment and checking which spawn point to use next.

I stick with one kit... I'm not going to say which otherwise you all will hate me... I concentrate on which flag to cap next and where I should spawn atm.

Mostly the normal looking up veiw, but sometimes it is twitchy and has the HUD still around, and no blur.

Sort of annoying but it doesn't effect the game at all so I'm not going to complain.

Support? Him? Never!

Must be something completely different, perhaps we start a poll just to check what the majority guesses.

I don't even notice I die sometimes, I just notice when I can't move then a medic comes and revive me and I am accidentally stuck in the spawn screen...

I never get teabagged, they shoot the shit out of me though.

But I usually get the twitchy view once out of 10 normal views.

I seem to get a mixture, normally on back looking up but it does vary at times.

Disabling Camera shake causes the wierd twitching.  The death cam works normal when you have camera shake enabled.

I personally wish they would just give you a more abrupt notice that you are dead, Half the time you die and the screen doesn't even change, usually when sniped, If you don't hear the shot it take a second just to know you are dead.  I would be all for a red tint the screen or something other than the cross hair just disappearing.

yea, i rarely experience the normal way. Especially on a titan. I die and usually for about 2 or 3 seconds i have the exact same view I had while still alive, I can move the mouse sideways and see stuff, then it either acts as if my body like fell through the floor and I can move the mouse, or it zooms out to a third person point of view.

Mostly I get the insta prone and crosshairs are gone, with mouse movement being a little buggy.

But my favorite is when I'm on the titan and I go down, then the screen switches to a weird x-ray vision side-ish view of the titan with no walls, but I can see all the players moving around the titan, where everyone is hiding etc.. 

Actually happens quite a bit.
