Camera Flexibility
Posted: Mon May 21, 2012 3:57 pm
I spent quite a bit of time doing throught he thousands of suggestions we have archived, and I didn't see a suggestion for this (though I apologize if I missed it) and if it's possible in the game client I'd love to see more flexibility with our camera movement.
Currently our camera looks out in front of us. Using commands, we can move the camera out, in, or change the angle, but for a quick look around memorizing and typing out all the code is a little tedious.
The Problem: we as Jedi are able to sense what's going on around us, and often who. But to observe in our academy often results in very jarring jerks of the whole body, or being surprised by someone behind you.
To provide clarity in what my suggestion is requestion I point to WoW. If you hold the right mouse button and look around, it moves your whole body around and changes your direction of movement like how our controls currently work in JKA. But if you hold the left mouse button and move your mouse around, your character doesn't move or shift direction, but your camera angle does so the player can look around.
If this is possible to implement in the game client I think it would help with our rp cadence.
That is my humble and respectful request.
