Holy ****. I didn't even see that.

CCP, listen very carefully now:

You CANNOT remove the option for the old, working camera without having fully and completely recreated every last aspect of it in your new system. All of it. No exception. No “kind of the same, but…”, and definitely no “it's better now because…”.

It must have every singe option and functionality that the old camera has: the direct and precise movement; the simple look-at and tracking functionality; the ability to track warps; the ability to simply rclick-unhook the camera from its current direction and then have it immediately snap back; always focusing on your ship etc etc etc. All the things people have been telling you for ages now.

If you remove it, there are no two ways about it and no delicate way of saying it: you are stupid. You are incompetent. You are not actually listening to the wave of feedback you're getting, and any attempt at claiming otherwise is a lie. Stop it. Step back, swallow your pride, stop blubbering, and give your customers the one thing they're asking for: a properly working camera. Remember what happens every time you have an “awesome” idea that doesn't work in practice, and realise that this is one of those moments. Again.

Jesus ******* christ. Why does this keep happening?! How are you so incapable of learning such a ridiculously simple lesson?! WTF is wrong with you?

Hello,

First let me congratulate you on your work for this new Camera, it has reached a point where I've chosen to go ahead and adopt it. (With dynamic FoV disabled)

Doesn't mean it's perfect though, but it's certainly the most promising of these new features, since neither Dscan or maps have yet to reach that level of usability in my opinion... Even though they are much older.

Now, keep up the good work, listen to player feedback, and in no time it should be finally ready to completely replace the old camera!

What I'd like to see happen:

• A setting to disable the automatic appearance of the tactical overlay when switching to tactical view.
• A shortcut to focus camera on self without zooming in (that is, conserve the current zoom level) like the reset camera button does.

As a fighting capsuleer, I don't care about cinematic effects. What I need is a simple, sober, effective camera I can use to position myself and assess my surroundings in the least disruptive way.
The new camera isn't providing any of that, automatically making it a huge failure for the kind of game that is Eve.

Holy ****. I didn't even see that.

I bet most of eve arnt aware of CCP removing the option of the old camera.

I agree. But unless they get rid of that drifty, squishy inertia garbage and give back toggled tracking there are gonna be a lot of angry subscribers when it happens.
