Please increase the zoom out!
|
Hi everybody, and especially the devs! :-)
I´ve started with the Beta today, and it´s real fun, but one point is really bad! The maximum zoom out level isn´t far away enough from the character! It would be nice if this point will be changed with the next updates, because I´ve the feeling that the gameplay with long range weapons will be no fun with this. And actually you see the foe´s real late, and have no "wide" feeling while exploring the gameworld. I can say that the game is fantastic in nearly all other points, but this is a decomposed strawberry on a nice cake... Best regards, Cowboy Last bumped on Mar 22, 2016, 2:04:10 PM

The camera distance is actually comparable to other arpg games. I'm betting it is more the camera angle that you are noticing. Unfortunately as the camera has already been adjusted and zoomed out twice, I doubt it will be done again. Playing on a 16:9 monitor helps, but simply zooming out is not as easy as it sounds. Things like game balance, performance, and enemy aggro range have to be tweaked.
How much time have you put into the game? A lot of people I've talked to about this don't really notice the camera as an issue after they acclimate themselves to the gameplay. "I would have listened... I would have understood!" - Scion

Thanks for your reply, I play PoE on a 4:3 monitor, but I´m using the 1280x720 resolution, this helps a bit. I don´t know if it would be better to play on a 16:9 monitor, I think I should get one... ;-)
Anyway, the game is great, and maybe after a few days of playing the maximum zoom out seems okay for me. |

Coming from a 4:3 to 16:9 its insane the difference it makes. At least it did for me

Going to buy a 16:9 22" Monitor today, for less more than 100€... ;-)
I know, I live in the technical middleage with my 19" 4:3 Monitor... :-P "Problem" should be solved then. EDIT: So, now with a 22" monitor it´s the same... I don´t know why this was not possible any more: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/24243 Last edited by Cowboy28#2353 on Jan 12, 2013, 11:29:12 AM

Did some fast comparison D2 - PoE in vertical direction and it's indeed comparable (even slightly in favour of PoE). Still, always wanted an official D2 version with 1024-768.
Well there more urgent important things to address ofc, lets get it in the expansion :) |

I'm ok with the zoom amount as it is but I don't like getting hit with projectiles/leap attacks from off screen enemies. Especially enemies from below the HUD.

I will agree that the aggro range of some enemies could be adjusted. It is annoying getting shot from off screen.

I agree with this complaint. Sometimes you can't even see the enemies and they're attacking you with ranged attacks from outside the screen.
Another problem is when you are using a ranged character and a friend is tanking the enemies. You can't keep your distance from them because you won't even be able to see the enemies in your screen so you're forced to stay close what might attract the enemies to yourself.
