Valkyyri Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Everyone knows tab-targetting needs fixing but what about zooming? atm slow zoom can screw you as much as buggy tab, because if it goes to "fps" mode middle of hectic pvp battle you are unable to see surroundings thus you cant plan any tactics ahead. Hell it can even get you killed as you are busy pressing zoom button just to see if theres anyone behind/sides. And no! no sane person wastes mousewheel binds on zooming, so it should scroll back to max asap w/o pressing zoom button after you have walked under bridges etc. Currently this and tab bug is killing my enjoyment alot as those pretty much can screw you royally in pvp. So anyone else losing hairs due these issues or is it just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PostalTwinkie Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I am with you on this as well, I hate having to zoom back out constantly. Why can't the camera have a snap feature to go back to a position you lock it into? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardya Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 (edited) Can you explain this? I think i have this too. Do you mean that the camera seems to occasionally zoom in automatically and then it stays at that zoom level, forcing you to zoom out manually? It essentially zooms in when, for geographic reasons, (I think when your back is to a wall) it has to zoom in to show you a normal picture. Although, this happens at the beginning of every huttball match when I run straight up the initial center ramp when I exit the starting area.

This is excatly my problem aswell and it is rather irritating, wierd thing is that sometimes it starts slowly zoom back to your, whatever is your max zoom level and sometimes it just doenst zoom back at all. Phew! atleast i wasnt onlyone who is getting gray hairs due this Edited February 27, 2012 by Valkyyri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyyri Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) I would really like to see this and tab bug adressed in next Q&A as these two are actually pretty game-braking issues, combine these in WZ:s and you are getting screwed bigtime. Cant even count how many times it has costed me objective saves (interrupting bomb plant, grappling ball carrier etc..) not to mention how many times those got me killed due miss launched CC in 1vs2 situations.

Smudgersmith Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Hi Guys This is probably the most game breaking problem for me atm with pvp, Tab targetting is just broken and slow Zoom out when u get into a tight situation is just so frustrating. Most important post ive seen on the general. Guys plz keep this post bumped as this as these are 2 very very important things that need fixing. Also haveing to reset the Zoom everytime you get off your ship, load into a WZ or instance is a real pain. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Yeah these two things will decide how long i shall keep playing this game sadly, i like pvp alot in this game but these bugs just makes it ALOT less fun. Also no matter how good you are these bugs can easly mean a loss for you (1vsX situations mostly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnimatrixSteel Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Absolutely hate the slow motion zoom out. It ranks up there as the most annoying camera system in any game out there. I have to constantly zoom out manually. Sometimes it zoom out on it's own too far or too close in.

ishews Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 yeah, this and tab target are my two main gripes. pls fix this BW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uuhh Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Finally a topic worth the bother. The zoom function is missing a "snap-out" function, it really does make a huge difference in tight situations. At the moment i have to 3 Razer naga buttons + modifier assigned to the zoom functions because of this. I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this. But sometimes when it "snaps-in" you can't zoom out again, properly, unless you quickly tab "zoom-in". Anyways, Bump for great justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOnlyKyrenS Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 honestly, this sounds like personal problem to me. I don't have this issue. check your mouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah you are confusing this with other camera issues that i dont actually have, this is about >zoom scrolling speed< that is WAY too slow atm. And this is easy to test: Set Camera max distance to 100% then stand front of any kind of pillar/wall then rotate your camera right or left side of your charter (make sure nothing is blocking camera so it can actually scroll to max), then tell me how long it took camera to be back at max distance. Because i fall asleep before scrolling is done... Edited February 27, 2012 by Valkyyri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goretzu Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Yeah this is annoying, the maximum zoomed out distance could be a little further out too (it's still quite zoomed in compared to a lot of MMORPGs). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackweb Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 SET YOUR MAX CAMERA DISTANCE TO 25-30% AND YOU WONT HAVE THIS PROBLEM ANYMORE!!!! thanks and solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiffyEQ Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 in keybindings under 'Camera' it has keybindings you can set for 'Max Zoom In' and 'Max Zoom Out'. would that help at all? I have zooming issues, but i think mine is because of my mousewheel being super sensitive, it drives me batty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lellefot Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 SET YOUR MAX CAMERA DISTANCE TO 25-30% AND YOU WONT HAVE THIS PROBLEM ANYMORE!!!! thanks and solved. Seriously? That's like saying go stand in the fire to solve the problem of other players killing you in PvP. Just take your trolling elsewhere. in keybindings under 'Camera' it has keybindings you can set for 'Max Zoom In' and 'Max Zoom Out'. would that help at all? I have zooming issues, but i think mine is because of my mousewheel being super sensitive, it drives me batty. The keybind, is not a solution for the base problem, since you shouldn't have to keep spamming a button to make the camera behave. Aditionally, the keybind is not working properly since it only zooms out to the default max distance, not the one you have set. So if you have increased the max distance it will only zoom you out part of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyyri Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 So they are planning to take this game in esport in future, sorry this game cant be in esport before next issues are fixed. A. Zooming needs "snap out" feature B. Tab needs major rework. C. Ability delay must be gone. D. General FPS increase for low and high end comps. When those are fixed then you can start to bring this game to esport, if not then theres noway anyone would take this game seriously on esport. I wish this game was "WoW copy" but it is not...

How does it solve anything when playing at 25-30% view distance is big nono? i brought mmo not fps game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol what resolution are you playing in? I might be on 1080p but I can see everything going on with max camera set to 30%... Neither is it a disadvantage in pvp, if your zooming out that far you dunno how to play the game anyways and you'll be dead before you zoomed back in.

I admit I haven't made a ranged class yet, I suppose it could be an issue when having to strategize from afar. But as a melee dps/tank, you don't need to zoom out further than 30%. The situation you would have to be in for that to have any kind of advantage is in the extremely unlikely section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
