Tristeno – lvl 80 Charr Warrior
Sruazzam – lvl 30 Asura Elementalist
Hello everyone, i would like to post a small addition ANet could add in the future. As we know there are some enounters like, the Jade Maw (fractals of the Mists), the Giganticus Lupicus (Arah), in which our UI “zoom” out far from the normal, so we can have a better view of the “encounter room”. I ask if Anet would like to add this option as a “general modification” at the General Options Tab. I don’t mean that the current zoom out is bad, but when a big fight starts in WvW, its not so easy to see what really happens because the whole screen is full of player nameplates. What do you think about increased camera distance????
P.S. I’m really sorry about my bad english, but its not my first language I will try to correct my mistakes in the near future
I agree, we should be able to zoom out further.
Also, your English is fine, better than most native English speakers lol.
I would like to zoom out as well, some areas hinder you from seeing properly and you cannot zoom further. During Maw I notice that the screen zooms out for you beyond the normal range. Perhaps we can get this further range in the future.
I read somewhere that the ‘close max’ is something anet did to make the game feel more immersive, and they only zoom out when a large boss is on screen and it is needed.
I am with you though, adding a slider to settings for “maximum camera zoom” would be perfect.
That was the very first thing I thought when I began playing GW2, it is too close. That is because my zoom on WoW was very far. You know what, I like it the way it is now.
