HeavySteelB52 Turalyon 514 17	Posted - 2013.09.04 13:11:00 - [1] - Quote But I fly in 1st person view and 3rd when I'm hovering over targets, anyone else feel thus way?
Nguruthos IX Vagina Bombers 1405	Posted - 2013.09.04 13:19:00 - [2] - Quote it would have been a better replacement for first person. Its damaging to have removed our proper third person
Spycrab Potato Hold-Your-Fire 350	Posted - 2013.09.04 13:25:00 - [3] - Quote Can someone please explain this new camera to me. I have yet to try to fly my dropship as I usually crash xD

Yeah, car ass all up in yo face. If only they could implement this view for my female scout suit char. Bonk chicka bowwow.
HeavySteelB52 Turalyon 514 17	Posted - 2013.09.04 13:44:00 - [5] - Quote I don't think they should take it out just make it an option. I can see how it would be harder for those who dly only in 3rd person.
Azura Sakura Militaires-Sans-Frontieres 453	Posted - 2013.09.04 13:58:00 - [6] - Quote Alright. The new camera change to dropships is OK. But for my ADS it sucks monkey balls. If they allowed us to aim while in 1st view, I wouldn't be so upset.
NPA SAMAR the jamahiriya 16	Posted - 2013.09.04 14:01:00 - [7] - Quote I have no problem flying them still but that is not the point,it was better before, it didnt need to change for the worse, plus to me it seems way more sluggish at moving.that might be the ships @ss blocking everything though, Just as big a problem are the rendering distances now.dropships need a hotfix asap.
HeavySteelB52 Turalyon 514 19	Posted - 2013.09.04 14:20:00 - [8] - Quote That is the one thing I wish they would put in 1st person, the ability to move crosshairs. That would be great and make them more deadly.
Beld Errmon Paladin Survey Force Amarr Empire 831	Posted - 2013.09.04 14:35:00 - [9] - Quote Can't say i like what they've done all that much, i can probably get used to the new camera location but where in the patch notes did they inform us they were gunna slow the dropships down and make them less agile, my incubus is flying like a generic dropship.
Takahiro Kashuken Red Star. EoN. 1208	Posted - 2013.09.04 14:41:00 - [10] - Quote Why cant they do it when in 1st person your left analog then is able to control the front turret and the crosshair but when in 3rd person the left analog goes back to being yaw control or whatever it is

I wasn't sure if this speed nerf was just a visual perception from the camera, or an actual thing. But all ads do feel slower now..
gbghg L.O.T.I.S. 3371	Posted - 2013.09.04 15:46:00 - [12] - Quote There's nothing unusable about it, in fact in some ways it's kinda useful, like a close up view it has it's uses. The biggest issue however is that it kills your spatial awareness, on the old cam we could see a huge amount of sky, we could place where inks were quickly and easily, we were also aware of how close the ass of our dropship was to things, the new camera denied all of that to us. As others have said, make it optional, allow us to switch between them.
Quil Evrything DUST University Ivy League 34	Posted - 2013.09.04 18:47:00 - [13] - Quote Yeah, as a newb pilot, I find the new perspective makes it easier for me to fly. However, it was wrong for them to just remove the old perspective. Look at it this way: most "driving games" allow 3, or even more, perspective views. Seems reasonable for them to do the same. At the very minimum, they need to bring back 1st-person view for assault dropships. It's the equivalent of aim-down sight, after all.
HeavySteelB52 Turalyon 514 20	Posted - 2013.09.04 19:44:00 - [14] - Quote Would anybody else like to have the crosshairs on the AD in 1st person be able to move at least up and down like in 3rd person because you still have to point the ship down to get a good sight on the target and it can be tricky? Another option would to have the turret on the AD have longer range, this way you could get more shots off before you have to pull the front up and reset for another pass. Just a idea.
Blaze Ashra O.U.T.E.R. S.A.N.C.T.U.M. 9	Posted - 2013.09.04 19:45:00 - [15] - Quote It's okay but the old camera was better in every way. You had more control over your turret, you could see where your gunners were shooting, you could see where obstacles were and where you got hit from, and your view wasn't blocked when trying to aim. The dropships have a sluggish and unresponsive feel to them now. High speed maneuvers are near suicide. But the biggest issue is infantry not rendering if you're over 50 meters or so. How am I supposed to deal with that?
HeavySteelB52 Turalyon 514 20	Posted - 2013.09.04 20:00:00 - [16] - Quote Yea sometimes you don't get much time to react on targets and obstacles in 1st person, I'm not sure about 3rd person as I mostly fly in 1st person view. Maybe old camera 1st person view with the ability to move crosshair up and down would work? But I do like the new 1st person camera for flying fast and strafing runs and 3rd person for hovering over targets and obstacles just need to put more time into it to really test ti out more.
Serimos Haeraven Deep Space Republic Top Men. 486	Posted - 2013.09.04 20:02:00 - [17] - Quote Honestly... At first i hated the camera, but after playing with it for a while and getting used to it, I can basically fly just like how i used to before 1.4, even though sometimes the DS gets in the way. It actually helps for low-altitude flying, but i switch between first and third person depending on how close to the ground i get. But I have gone through about 10 matches straight killing enemies and not losing a single dropship today.
