Camera zoom question

Player Questions Started Last reply 32 posts
The preset zoom span seems to be to small, is there any way to increase it? As of now I can only zoom in and out like 10-15 cm...which makes it very hard to play..
There is a patch for it but its not legal to use.

No....
Well that's just ridiculous..I've seen screenshots on the official website with more camera zoom than I can do..there isn't some preset camera lock when you install the game? Also I have a gamepad option checked and "greyed out" even though I don't have a gamepad installed..just seems to be a lot of weird-*** designflaws going on..

Nothing weird about it...You have a set amount of game zoom.
i think so :) atleast thats the max with me
Looks about right, ye.


Yup!
And good deal with the seeding bro, nice way to earn some extra mats/cash.

Sell? :eek: I was just working on collecting adena. You can make profit by selling :eek:
0_o you kept your mats from seeding? between 1-40?
Yeah :eek:

I've held onto all of my mats...
WTH stop hijacking my thread with your seeding madness and start bringing words of camera zoom increasment goodness :)
So how much more zoom do you want? To be able to see the pores on once face?

he wants to be able to zoom out not in :p
In other words wants to be able to see around walls and hills and things. The reason why the zoom **** is a bad ****.
Zoom in this game is limited, because when it would have had zoom like DiabloII or some strategy game, it'll be easy to "peek" behind cadtle walls and such. You can use page up and page down keys to zoom in/out in 3 predefined distances and adjust with scroll.

Other things is ... please remove that stoopid camera position reset on right mouse click!!! (And also please remember the camera position when logging out :( )

Is it really?

If it was legal to everyone, I don't understand why it would be so bad as a lot of players use it already, ain't that more unfair?

zoom **** imo has nothing to do with botting/afk lvling.

It's an unfair advantage in pvp that should not be unfair....but should be bannable to the ones that use it at this moment.

Two wrongs, don't make a right. Thats what i say.
On the same vein a lot of people use botting programs, which would not equal that it "should" be ok. I've seen zoom **** screenies, it's just as unfair as the cheating programs that allow you to see people in different floors of towers or behind walls.
All I'm talking about is having the option to zoom out maybe twice as much as I can today..it doesn't constitute cheating..it "constitutes" getting an overview of the battle..as opposed to trying to target the mobs frigging foot becaus that's all I can see. This is available in every other MMO I've ever tried and guess what..it didn't mess up the game balance at all :P

please remove that stoopid camera position reset on right mouse click!!!



Yes please!

On topic: It would be nice to be able to zoom out just a little more. Just a little.

0_o you kept your mats from seeding? between 1-40?



Well, Splatter needs his mats for his C grade once he hits 40.

I'd rather loose the camera reset then double my zoom Out.

The OP has a valid request: allow greater zoom out. You have a valid constraint: it must clip based on terrain. Both are easy to satisfy.

Personally, my main complaint is that PvP is too fast at high level (I get 1 or 2 shot normally) and so the zoom out is a huge issue. If zoom out is not improved, then what I would like to see is a race / class specific passive skill (i.e. everyone gets it, but not as effective for everyone) called Awareness. What this skill does is provide a chance that if you are targeted a status message will be displayed in the system window telling you who just targeted you.
Though by the time you see that message, process the information that the message provides, and move to react... you'd be dead anyway.

Then you will get the annoying people that target you just to get a message to pop up. Could even make a macro for it.

/target biotox
/target mrteedoff
/target biotox
/target mrteedoff
/target biotox
/target mrteedoff
/target biotox
.... etc
Unless you're being targeted by a dwarf, that is.

Yeah, if I had to choose, that's what I'd go with too :confused:
