Ops.. Topic was meaning to be posted as "More info 3rd person camera in tutorial!"

Please make it so the the tutorial has in it explaining that the third person camera, can also been seen by a red blinking light by the enemy too. Just had 3 people have the 3rd person camera on in one game using to peek over a ridge, while my lance was waiting to ambush...

If i am wrong and i missed it, the information mentioned above, sorry. I did not see this information in the tutorials.

Sorry but I think you have put this in the wrong subforum, there is a specific forum for feedback on the tutorial, this is new player help where experienced players answer questions from newer players.

It is extremely unlikely to be noticed by a developer here, as far as I know it has been about 6 months since the last developer post in new player help

To get it moved report your post and ask an to have it moved.

A better English interpretation: (This is not meant to be condescending in any way, but the English is kinda bad.)

Topic subject was meant to be: "Place more info 3rd person camera in tutorial!"

"PGI: Please make it so the tutorial includes a better explanation of the 3rd-person camera; including details about the camera drone's physical presence, its flashing light, and that "everyone" can see it. I was just in a match where 3 people were using the 3rd person camera to peek over a ridge, while my lance was waiting to ambush... evidently unaware that they were giving our position away.

If I am mistaken and I missed information in the tutorial about the third person drone, sorry. I did not see this information in the tutorials."

We've avoided/prevent any use of 3rd person in the new tutorial, and the new ground arrow should reduce new player's dependency on 3rd person view to know where their legs are pointing.

The key point you seem to want to convey, is that 3rd person also gives away position: but currently I have no mechanism to put an AI-controlled mech into 3rd person to show the problem.
