Tanki new camera!

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

Yea potato :D i also have seen it.

Lets say closed in random topics? :D

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

I bet that would call a moderator pretty fast XD

[Maf 32,305]

Do you mads have an alarm that goes off whenever someone says "close"? This is not the first topic thats had a mod come right after someone say something about closeing it...  :huh:

No, I'm just following it. You can see the list of people who follow a topic by clicking the "people icon" in the top-right corner: http://tnkscr.net/Gjra0S.jpg

Close enough

[VaudeVille 1,428]

Not a bad idea. I can understand what ur trying to say. We should be able to look ahead in a tunnel. Tho mafioso's suggestion on how to use the camera is also not bad

Yeah! thats what i wanted suggest but there is 0.01% chance devs will look at this post. So it wont be added to game so you still have to hope noone is in front of your tank or hope its your teamate, because you are not able to see him.

Sadly,that is very true...in topic Ideas and Suggestions and Ideas for Game Modes it seems that mods and devs will never really ever implement any of those idea....although when i was just going through both of them, i did notice that halfway through those topics there were ideas that were added to the game. Example: Testable Paints, where you can see what it looms like before buying it, and also ASL mode. But those were kinda obvious and they would have probebly been put in even if nobody suggested them....it seems that is the only one that ever looks at them...

[Maf 32,305]

That's the thing - there are so many essential and "obvious" ideas that developers are working on right now (and planning to start), that they simply don't have any reason to go on the forum and look for new ideas. Sure, many ideas here are good, but taking them on means delaying other plans and Tanki X, doing which can compromise all organisation and completely fail their schedule.

 

I wrote quite a lot about this topic in Does anybody listen to our ideas?

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

Yeah, i understand that

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

 Does anybody listen to our ideas?

Devs mostly dont listen them.

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

Devs mostly dont listen them.

Yeah..although, they probebly have better ideas than most of us XD

They know how the game works, they can predict how an idea will work out. But, they also dont know thing that WE know. There should be a topic that has dev ideas and we players comment on them that way they get the extra bit they dont have :)

 

Now, if there is already one, tell me pls, id like to know

[I3ANNED 1,693]

Don't know what you mean cuz the pics are removed and you never explained properly, all I understood was enable and disable the camera O.o

anyway you can use "Semi-Spectator" or Mouse controls, if that's what you're talking about. Also if you're talking about Q and E.....

Are u using them whenever you drive in tunel upwards? No, but you dont see ahead your tank. This idea was to make things get easier.

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

Yeah, i understood that and i still think it could be a good thing added to TO, or even TX

Its a very simple camera alteration that could make gameplay much easier. When im in Polygon or Stadium and im using rail/shaft and im sniping while pressed against the wall, i cant see my reload bar so its very hard to judge when i should/could shoot(with shaft, the bar needs to be full before going into sniping veiw, and when i press it early it will just shoot in arcade view so i need to wait again for it to fill). Also, when driving up tunnels in Esplanade, i cant see very well above me so whoever it going down has a significant advantage. 

The camera glitches when it goes too close to a ceiling, thereby making it harder to get a good angle while still being able to drive

reupload pics pls

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

No, dont reupload them. Make new ones that are better, or you will get the same comments that you did at the beginning of the topic. You should either try to do a bit of photoshopping, or go into Spectator mode and take the shots(with the tank in it still) at the angles your trying to show. You can find out how to go into spectator made in the forums or the help sections, but i personely dont know how to do it, so i cant tell you

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

Amm okay. I might try it on monday.

I will just do fake specator mode in noise tunel to show what i want to see there, but cant.

Also i found 1 old game in my pc what i might show that, it works good also in 3rd person veiw.

Banned MAFIOSO took good screenshots. They might help to understand.

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

Idk how to explain it. Do u have toy car? Put camera above it and record car crash. You will see that camera spins with car, not flying mysteriously in air showing you always above car...

Yeah, thats a better way to explain it. Although...maybe you could do some parkour jump where you go upside down(you are still in the air and you can see the map) then take a pic and flip it so the tank is rightside up and the map is upside down. That may be what you did before, but i remember you haveing the tank on the ground while upsideown...i dont remember...been several months

 

:blink:

Yeah....idk....explanation?

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

Amm that guy is Banned :) hes name is I3anned and i typed anser to him. That banned is user with who im talking about MAFIOSO how he explained with photos.

Isnt it funny how tbis topic is like 2 months straight inactive and isnt closed yet while other topics are closed after 28 days? :P

We don't lock topics for inactivity. Topics are moved to the archive by Issho after 3 months of inactivity (6 for I&S section), but otherwise we only lock if the topic violates rules or is otherwise unnecessary.

[MrCheezyPotato 850]

What? Iv seen many topics closed after one month :huh:

I also read some atuff about forums and i remember that it said topics would generally be closed after a months of no posts.....weird. i really need to get some more up-to-date info on stuff soon, lol
