Hey devs

First of all the *** kissing ... Luv the game still .. cant put it down .. you rock ... blahblahblah
Ok down to business =) so i love how good the game looks when you zoom in BUT i hate the way the way the camera zooms in .. it seems to just go straight down which gives you very little to no view of whats ahead of you !!

SOOOOOOOO. what i recommend if you agree with this is how about make the camera zoom in at a curve so it looks on to your character and straight ahead it would increase how people think of the graphics because when your zoomed in the graphics are fantastic but with the current angle of the camera it ruins game play ...
let me know what u think devs

MUCH LOVE !!

Was thinking the same. I wonder how hard it would be to implement..

What about a zoom angle lock? on the iphone it's stuck at 3/4 view, but for the ipad you can change the Y angle and it's painfully annoying when you're trying to pan around in the middle of a huge fight while trying to target the mob that just ran after your caster :\

Are you talking about a camera view that isnt overhead but more or less behind your character? If so I agree 100%, I'd love a 3rd person behind the back carmera view.

Well wait, we have 3rd person view currently. It sounds like you want to be able to zoom in to an almost 1st person or over-shoulder view. It sounds like the iPad version can already do something similar, though I don't have one and don't know how much control there is over the view angle. I wonder if the fact that they are going to be combining the iPhone and iPad versions into one will mean that capability will show up on the iPhone as well.

The main issue with pushing the camera up is the amount of horizon that we have to render. I like the idea of putting it on a curve, I'll ask the tech guys (Futumsh and Asommers).
