Camera mode start up
« on: August 23, 2007, 01:36:21 am »
Ok, at the start of the game when someone has just downloaded PS the camera is set to free rotation, I'd just like to know 'why' that is, seeing how in most RPGs, and even MMORPGs the camera is almost always set to a third person stance. Well, the only reason I even mentiont his is sometimes it can be very disorintating, ecspecially if you're new to planeshift. Why not just set the default camera view to Third person follow?

I always started in third-person follow myself. Maybe you inadvertently hit M?

he means the very first time you load the game not after you have set it up the way you want it

Yup, IE: when you first download the game, the default setting is set to like, free rotation, which is sorta disoriantaiting, so much more so for someone new.
