Camera view for GTA V


Kray-Z

Recommended Posts

hello gta lovers think i have to mention about gta IV

 

the 3rd person camera view in GTA IV didnt feel the same as in III era when you were driving a vehicle

It felt weird

someone else feelin the same?

 

it just wasnt in the center this really sucked, talking about the PS3 version dunno if it is the same on the pc version

I cant really get used to it. makes me move the 2nd analog stick to center the camera

 

i just hope that they change the view back like in the previous gta the view was

its not a major issue i just used to play alot of gta sa online in the past and was used to devil.gif

Lol... I posted about this not too long ago. Maybe a month or two.

 

OT: On xbox it was also slightly to the side, which i found really annoying. I hope they at least include an option to have it the classic way.

The camera centers on the driver, not the car, that's why.

I can't say that I ever really noticed what you are talking about.

 

But while we are talking about cameras; I think that they should incorporate some kind of fps view.

 

I love the 3rd person view, and I know that 3rd person pretty much makes this game what it is...But IMO, they should add some kind of mission of something that has to be played in 1st person like in an fps.

 

Perhaps they could bring back rampages, and then have the camera switch to fps-view once you start a rampage.

 

I understand that this game is not a shooter, and frankly, I think it would be idiocy to try to turn gta into a first person game. But I think adding some little fps moments could be cool on a few levels. It would be an interesting change, it would be a way of poking fun at the emergence of fps's dominating the marketplace, and it would give the gta forumers something else to argue about going forward....It's a win-win-win..

Nah, the camera was ok in IV except for some bigger vehicles like vans it should have been little higher. Could not see always well what happened in front.

The only camera related thing I didn't like in IV was the clipping. In certain cutscenes and at certain angles the camera would go through a car, a dude's head, etc.

 

Anyway, they did an in-car view for the taxis, why not have a dashboard cam?

As an OPTION, why not? I'd use it 24/7

I liked the driving camera in IV, but to be honest, 99% of the time I was moving the right analog stick to keep the view on what I wanted, (which typically meant a bit higher, i.e. right analog stick down), so I guess maybe I'd like it a bit higher?! But, to be honest as long as it's as fluid as it was in IV I'll be happy, I liked it.

You could change it to the III ere style,, so whats the problem?

 

I personally liked it. And you could see more detail on the vehicles.

I Shot The Sheriff

Agreed. It's no biggie, but still it was somehow weird, I don't know why they did it. If I was given the choice, centered camera all day long.

It was an option in IV. Why wouldn't it be an option in V?

I enjoyed driving in first person from time to time as a change....and I am NOT a fan of first person views for the most part. I wouldn't want to be forced to play first person either but as an option, it is fun to play with.

If you don't like it, then don't push that specific button, easy peasy. Your personal preferences shouldn't limit my good time.

It's First Person View from the Driver, so you get to see inside the car and all the small details. In GTA IV there was also Hood View which is the closest we got to First Person View on the Vehicles, in older era GTA games there was an actual camera view from the headlights of the car, which could also be described as First Person View from the Vehicles perspective.

No I would hate it. I couldn't drive good in Far Cry 2 but in a GTA game I can drive good. It could be that i'm not use to Far Cry 2's controls.

If GTA V had 1st person, I'd imagine an awful lot of memory would be wasted on the detail of car dashboards.

 

Anyway, I know what you're saying OP. I hate the 'side-view' on GTA IV.

Plus I wish there was a view which is slightly elevated over the car, when driving I'm constantly holding the right stick up to look over the car!

I think they should Have it kinda like Fallout 3/NV where you could play in either fist or third person point of view.

That way when in first you can see the small detail and in third you can see the entire city.

I don't think R* is going to change up the formula too much, as far as basic gameplay is concerned. 3rd person veiw in car and out, map in the corner. It's done very well so far and I don't think they want to risk changing the basics up.

 

 

I wouldn't play in first person anyway, just my preference.

There was Midnight Club: Los Angeles, which had a first person view from the driver's perspective. So, you're wrong about them never having made a first person game. Also, how do you know that they will NEVER make a first person game? What are you a psychic or something?

I would like to be able to lock the cinematic camera in place so if it goes to a cool overhead shot it won't switch to some lousy wheel well shot of my car parked in front of a wall three seconds later.
