I find myself always playing at the furthest out zoom level, since you can see more of your surrounding.. and I sort of imagine most do that as well. But I thought I'd ask because I'm curious if there are any brave souls out there who play more zoomed in, maybe even all the way?

Dont see the point in zooming all the way in.

I play all the way zoomed in. I actually thought most people did xD.

Isn't it kind of hard to target targets that are further away?

Zoomed out all the way, even on the iPad.

For me, the only benefit of zooming in is that I find it easier to tap my self to cancel target.

Same. Zoomed all the way out. If I had an option to rotate the vertical view I'd probably zoom in

Zoomed all the way, out. But I tend to hold my iPhone too close to my face, that's when I zoom a bit in and take my iPhone further away from my eyes.

Stupid question: How do you zoom in/out?

In options, I only see the ability to zoom in/out for the mini-map.

- Thanks

Pinch zooming just like in other apps.

Zoomed all the way out, but I agree if I had the option to rotate the camera vertically and make it more of a behind the shoulder camera angle I would definitely run like that.

How much further out can you zoom from default? I am toying with trying it but Ill never get it back to default after. :P

Zoomed all the way out on iPad. If anything, i'd like to zoom out further so that you can walk back to your group easier after you die.

Is it easier to play without the joystick on the iPad?

I think so as well.

Zoomed out... just like most everyone else. Good to see what's going on around me! haha

Zoomed out is the best way.

The pinch zoom is the thing which mainly limits PL on android. Devices with decent processors but not multi touch can not play.

I play on Chrome and IPad. PVE zoom all the way in. It's more challenging, I can appreciate the graphics more, it's less boring. I zoom out when I'm not familiar with a dungeon then after a couple of runs once I get the feel of the dungeons and the mobs, where to position myself, which mob to kill first etc, then that's the time I zoom in and I make use of mini map to guide me to make it more exciting. We don't have the most exciting maps in Humania...this is my way of entertaining myself... PVP definitely zoom out. Townes zoom out.

All the way in, it's just the pro way to play.

Usually I zoom all the way out, but sometimes I zoom half way because I like seeing characters a little bigger

this, especially when I equip a melee weapon (so my range isn't limited by zoom)

if you zoom out your minimap you can almost see the whole dungeon + character locations, so you don't need to judge by the blue dots on the edge of your screen anymore (and maybe end up going the wrong way)

Zoomed all the way out with map overlay on relatively zoomed out as well. Unless I am targeting specific mobs, I am mainly look at the lay out of the map and the grouping of the mobs for optimal killage!
