Nguruthos IX PEN 15 CLUB 2043	Posted - 2013.10.09 04:33:00 - [31] - Quote Blaze Ashra wrote: It's not perfect but i'll happily take this over 1.4. No more crashing and being able to see where forge rounds are coming from is worth losing out on a few kills. Haven't lost a single ship so far , but I haven't been playing that much this week, (busy week, lots to do). 1.3 was better, and I still think it would be best to cycle through the 3 views but I'll gladly take this over 1.4's camera.. hu?
Beld Errmon Evocatius 975	Posted - 2013.10.09 04:47:00 - [32] - Quote I had just mastered the new camera mode and then they go and change it back, now i can't shoot for sh*t again and its gunna be like this for weeks. Yet another undocumented change by CCP, if they had of actually bothered to mention this before doing it we could have told them not to do it.... so pissed off with you right now CCP, every aspect of this game I enjoy you completely ruin.

Try sustaining fire on a tank now lol good luck
Nguruthos IX PEN 15 CLUB 2043	Posted - 2013.10.09 04:53:00 - [34] - Quote Also they nerfed passengers last patch. Dropship passengers can't even look around freely while in the passenger seat... To see when and where to drop. Lolol. Helpful. Now somebody tell me why in the hell they'd go and remove a thing like that?
Varjac Theobroma Montenegro M.T.A.C Assault Operations Command 9	Posted - 2013.10.09 04:54:00 - [35] - Quote I fly a Grimsnes, but my control has improved with the new camera angle. I have better perception of my landing gears and have better control over thruster direction. I do accelerate a little slower due to the lack of ability to "dolphin" effectively anymore, if any one else knows that speed trick. I don't shoot much though, I mainly fly in and out of hot zones and get equipment in tactical positions. I need to be fully aware of my ships position with relation to the airspace and available landing area. This closer angle helps me greatly. I would like to see an adjustable angle like in GTA. I think then it would suit all of our needs and play styles then.

Vin Vicious Capital Acquisitions LLC Public Disorder. 542	Posted - 2013.10.09 08:23:00 - [37] - Quote Flying a DS in third person on kb/m is physically impoosible and that's not a typo
Takahiro Kashuken Red Star. EoN. 1298	Posted - 2013.10.09 12:11:00 - [38] - Quote I tried to fly yday, i couldnt see where i was going half the time because my lolderpship took up 90% of the screen
Aaroniero d'Lioncourt The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 182	Posted - 2013.10.09 12:19:00 - [39] - Quote CCP be like.. "I thought you fcks wanted the view changed back to 1.3, Now that it's been done, Why you fcks want 1.4 view now?" Players be like.. "We had no choice but to adapt to 1.4 DS view since you mofos take a while to update and sometimes pushes it back"

Cy Clone1 Intara Direct Action Caldari State 259	Posted - 2013.10.09 14:31:00 - [41] - Quote They need to go back to the view before 1.4! It was near perfect, now I don't even bother with ds. It may not have been as cinematic of a view but It allowed you to see targets above, below, and in front with out obstruction. Its also nice to see where your landing.

At this point, I hardly doubt CCP will ever get it right. They seem to have a very small "think-tank" (thinking out of the box) team that seams to understand the player base well. The best option as someone has already suggested is "options". Give pilots the choice to toggle view angles on the fly from all the variants previously provided. And perhaps have the pilots be able to lock-in favorite views so that they can toggle through just the ones they like instead of all. I swear, CCP needs a bigger team.
Skihids Bullet Cluster 2257	Posted - 2013.10.09 15:16:00 - [43] - Quote We need a first person view that looks "through" the hull via hull mounted cameras. With that we can look in any direction wthout the ship obscuring our view from the cockpit location. The cockpit PoV would let us land and fly thorugh tight spots with a much better perspective. If I never have to deal with the flight camera getting stuck as I fly into a tight spot again it will be too soon. The cockpit PoV won't get hung up on walls because it won't be "outside" the ship. The virtual view could include a sort of transparent hull for reference (and immersion), but it wouldn't obscure anything. We would finally have a perfect ability to be situationaly aware if we just look around. The ultimate would be to add USB rudder pedals for yaw control so the "look" camera could take over the right joystick. That would let us do what real world pilots do, namely constantly look around to maintain situaltional awarness.
Denchlad 7 Heavy Reign inc. Freek Alliance 0	Posted - 2013.10.09 15:22:00 - [44] - Quote I must admit, having had a go earlier, it doesn't seem too bad. The only real issue I've been having is navigating tight spaces, where the camera glitches into the wall and I may as well be wearing a blindfold for how much visibility I have. However, that being said, I've found it a lot easier to aim with than in 1.4, so I guess it's not too bad, but it's still not brilliant. Maybe one day. :/
Justin Tymes Dem Durrty Boyz Public Disorder. 431	Posted - 2013.10.09 15:44:00 - [45] - Quote Pulling up is the worst part, you can't see anything. Dropping down is difficult because you have to "guess" where you land or you damage your dropship.
Nguruthos IX PEN 15 CLUB 2052	Posted - 2013.10.09 20:24:00 - [46] - Quote day 2 entry: We've been stranded on island 1.5 for a couple days now. dropship butt is all we have in sight. there is little hope. BUT WAIT!!! Is there a horizon on the ship? I don't know, all I can see is ship.
Nguruthos IX PEN 15 CLUB 2056	Posted - 2013.10.10 15:08:00 - [47] - Quote Day 3. Nothin but butt

Nothin but butt Ever notice how every patch they **** with dropships, and every patch it's never mentioned in the patch notes? I think CCP has a gremlin who makes these changes seconds before the build goes through, and no one there is actually even aware of what's happening to dropships. It's the best explanation I can come up with after a year and a half of this, it's the only logical answer.

That would be perfect.
