Title: Feedback: Camera Moves when firing weapon
Post by: BlackLibrary on March 06, 2014, 11:03:01 pm

There is a change in the latest exe where the camera moves while firing weapon.  I'm not liking it too much.  Especially when testing the HMG machine gun...it just doesn't look right.  Is there a reason this was changed?  Seemed like it was fine before when camera stayed on target, and not the messenger.

Hmm:  Is the camera moving due to reaction fire?

As my dad used to say...Don't fear the gun, fear the bullets!

it was done in order to reduce overall camera movement, as sometimes it was quite jarring.
i can't speak to weapons with 500 bullet auto shots or insanely high speed projectiles, however, as these fall well outside my jurisdiction.
