Guild Wars 2

It gets pretty annoying when you’re dead, and after about 5 seconds the game takes control and starts panning your screen. Sometimes you just want to watch what’s going on while waiting for a rez (during a boss fight or while in WvW, for example), and this becomes a struggle when the camera keeps wanting to spin all the time. Plus, it starts to hurt my eyes and makes me dizzy after a while.

Maybe there should be a simple option to disable camera pan while dead?

maybe make an option to follow party members, so you can watch the battle go on. hide the skill usage of followed players, but being able to watch the rest of the battle from other players’ perspectives would be nice.

Couldn’t get them to do it with GW1, probably wont get it here either but I can’t stand things like this. I want to watch the action and see if anyone is coming to my rescue.

In GW1 you could. While you were dead, you could click on a party member and watch from their view. It’s a zoomed out version but you could clearly see what was going on.

I’d like to see something like this if the party member you want to follow is in the same map.

O God yes Developers please make the camera stop spinning every few seconds after I re adjust it from spinning after I turned it around. Why would anyone want this feature. that is more of a “go afk and come back and your dead thing and there is the camera spinning around your dead body thing” and Aggresive Teapot.2314 idea from guild wars 1 is awsome! But then again alot of idea’s from guild wars one is awesome Guesting also need to be implemented Off topic yes but I have friends on Multiple servers…

Agree with the OP. I’d categorize this as a low-priority change; there are other bug fixes and features that should be higher-priority. But once they have a chance to work through the change requests list a bit, the ability to disable the auto-spinning camera would be great.

Why does it even do that? It’s obnoxious.

Please remove this Anet, whenever you guys get a chance. Is more annoying than helpful.

I concur, this is very annoying, especially when in Fractals. It’s easy to get in a situation where someone will be downed for several minutes while the rest of the party keeps fighting, and it is incredibly annoying to have the camera auto-pan while trying to keep a look at what’s happening.
