And not for the reason you might think.

It nauseates me. Literally.

The camera is so close to the mech it's almost debilitating to play in that view point.

Back the view off a bit so I can see my mech.

89% of the time I play 1st person view. I love 1st person it's great. Its the reason I play this game.

That other 11% of the time I like looking at my mech stomp around, checking paint and enjoying playing from a different perspective.

The first moment when you push F4 the camera is great, then it does like a 2x zoom.

I get that they wanted to do 3rd Person to please the masses but there was no reason to do it Badly.

It's the whole reason you had two different matchmaking brackets.

3rd Person definitely wasn't ready to be put into the game yet.

I dunno, what are you guys thoughts on it?

That reticle snapping needs to go. I dunno, but they need to ray trace the retice from the camera's eyes and not from the cockpit. I reeeeeeeeeeeeeally hope that gets changed. It's very hard to fight with the snapping, especially up close.... I just hope PGI doesn't see it as a handicap and think "Yeah! Lets keep that reticle snap so new players don't get stuck playing 3PV and realize that it's not an effective way to fight"

I mean following that logic, they might as well lower the camera down 5 meters so people can see their feet if they're not going to include combat (the main part of the game) into also making it easier for newer players.
