Thanks for making it so all I can see is my a**. I guess I really didn't need to be able to see underneath me for clearing objects or the back half of my ship when I'm trying to land.
Brilliant!
I don't think I'll be flying for a month unless this camera is hotfixed to be pushed back like it was.
And as for turrets not rendering till 50 feet when their ranges are like 3x, 6x, and 200x that. LOL |

To summarize:
Flying forward? can't see in front of you
Flying over ground? Can't see below you
Landing? Can't see around you, or the entire back half of ship.
Seriously what is this? Why..?

Please tell me this is going to be revered soon or I honestly just can't play this game.
I'll make a video later unless someone beats me to it. Any idea how many dropships are going to die from crashing into the MCC or walls, or floors, or other dropships because of this camera? |

I find it ironic that I can't see the problem being described as there are not screenshots being linked. |

I have flown in 15 matches so far. 3 of them with no enemy team so I had a good chance to try different maneuvers. Not liking it so far :
1) Tip forward and all you can see is a massive rear end in your face.
2) With the ship pushed back like this to clear the cross hair it is harder to get in the safe zone above a tank and still hit it. You are forced to put you rear further back than before to engage the tank and be able to see what you are doing.
3) When in a safe zone above a tank the wider ship makes tracking the tank very hard. He can slink off screen easily as my ship stops me being able to see behind me or my rear left and right quarter zones.
4) Crushed a temate landing with my huge invisible rear
I prefered the old version. Yes new things need time, but if i can't see to land a flying vehicle properly something is amiss.

Judge, be a good man and record some short footage & upload it. no need for commentary, just 1.4 flight footage. Don't think I'll be on anytime soon tonight. .. and by the looks of it, I won't be a happy man either. |

I had a feeling this would be the case. Once it's downloaded, I'll fly about for a little bit but most likely will put my dropships away until they fix them in 2014. |

I agree, the camera for dropships is completely ******. Wolfman is really not making himself look good with his first update to vehicles. |

Seriously. I expected bad things but this?
And on the wings of "improvements" to ds camera and turret aiming. Reallly? Who are you kidding?
There was even talk of making assauult ships turret aiming easier and fixing that view. If this was that fix then god put it back.

Not even joking. Hang up your keys till this ones gone.
Its like if somene was tasked with doing the most they could to get our camera to kill us, while doing Everything possible to have the rendering make us useless. Also they broke it for gunners too.
Tripple broken for shame |

For those that asked here is some footage of the new camera. It's just raw as recorded. (note that i cut the bottom off a bit in my rush to post. you can see a little bit more than that, just a little mind) Also I left the start in as their is a new RDV bug. Too close to towers now and Metal will fall from heaven. Stick round till i run off down the road, ill film a tank dropping on the dude calling it in and he ragdolls his way into the books of awesome.
Here is the video enjoy. Well not the new camera bit. That's not so hot.
Metal from heaven. My people will be speaking to your people CCP. |

God that is terrible, but I can see where it might be useful. IMO we need a variable camera, where we can switch between the wide view the old camera gave us, and the close up the new one grants. |

Please let there be a very quick Hotfix for that and put it back to the way it was!
With that kind of view and controll the thematic dropship is done for me  You just cant mess up such a huge game part like this
I have the same point of view like everyone above, except TEXA5 HiTM4N.

That's what you call CCP's idea of "improved dropship camera"?
Please CCP, stop "improving" things. I don't think that word means what you think it does. |

I typically use around 1-3 dropships per game. And I have to say CCP the camera angle is awful now. I feel terrible for anyone who uses pythons regularly. I'm skipping all comments on your "fog of war" implementation and how drastic of a change that is to emphasize the immediate need for dropship camera angle correction. Also my friend here who also plays and buys aurem agrees whole heartedly as well. Change it back. |

Just an FYI - I reported the bug, with the video in the BUG section before posting it here. As we all should. This is a bug, that's all. Not a fail or CCP being bad or not caring. It's here so more people are aware, not as a stick to hit CCP with.
If you love the game like me and this happens to you, put a detailed report into the official bug thread on it here : Official bug report thread |
