Slow Camera snap back after looking around with circumflex

[Aprikosenmann]

The camera is rather slow moving back to its original position after looking around with circumflex. I feel like we need a button to enable the instant snap back from Warband.
Its basically impossible to look around during fighting since you loose very important time in combat.
And it feels unnatural and unsatisfying to use circumflex at all since you know that a weird camera move will follow. The camera motion also causes some kind of motion sickness when you want to turn your character while the camera is moving back.

This is my biggest complaint about the game so far. It's such an easy fix to make, too.

It's really important to be aware of and dodge cavalry, given how deadly they are and how quickly they can appear. So, using the camera (view outfit) key is incredibly important for gameplay. Having the camera snap back slowly (i.e. not instantly) is severely limiting and frustrating.

At the very least, add the option for the camera to snap back immediately in the menu.

You can't even use this feature at all in first person perspective, to my endless frustration.

Yet another example of the removal/bastardisation of useful features found in Warband.

Yeah I rather just turn my character around because its faster and doesn't make me want to throw up.

lol please let's not get overly dramatic lest we turn into the Steam forums.

Personally I do the classic "jump and quick look behind" technique more often. My main issue with the Inspect Self camera is it tends to send me off course afterwards.

If we're making suggestions regarding this, possibly a toggle key instead of holding it down? As well as increased speed for those who use it in situations which require faster looks.

The moment you release circumflex you have to close your eyes for 0.2 sec and then it is endurable. I will force this until muscle memory in my eyelids kicks in.

He's right to say it. I wouldn't want TW to think this is a minor issue that doesn't really matter.

The camera key is something I like to use all the time, in both SP and MP, whether I'm in a battle or not. There's nothing to be gained from a slower snapback. It just pointlessly hinders the gameplay experience. If it gets changed, it will feel so much better.

All it does is heavily reduce the skill ceiling in group battles and make anti-ganking way less viable, especially in conjunction with the reduction in rotating speed when you're not moving.

Good post, I've found it rather cumbersome. I use it out of habit all the time.

There was a thread about it in the beta board which had been running for months. It's kind of amusing to see the same topics being brought up as EA launched.

There are so many things, it's rather cumbersome to search for them all

We are lost. The problem has been ignore for over half a year. I want to cry right now.

Here are clips of the slow camera affecting gameplay:



Here's how the quicker/immediate camera worked in Warband:



At most, people could suggest it doesn't matter, but it does matter to anyone who's passionate about MP combat, and even in SP there are people who don't like the motion effect. There should be the option to change it, at the very least.

It's been three weeks, I've tried getting used to the game, but this feature still remains to be a huge nuisance.

its such an easy fix just need to reduce 1 variable. If they set it up like unity with lerp

They don’t check the forums imo (
