Guild Wars 2

When you’ve enabled Adjust Camera to Character Height in first person view, it puts the camera at the crown of your character’s head instead of their eye-level. Of course this isn’t a huge deal, but it would be good for RPers (or anyone who likes immersion) to have the camera at eye-height instead. The eye height is fairly consistent for a given race, so you could say halfway up the head for humans, 1/4th for Asura, and so on.

It seems like making an offset for this would be very easy with all of the camera improvements they’ve already done.

- I’d like to add that having to toggle the [adjust camera to height] on shouldn’t be necessary to have the FPV placed on the head instead of the chest.
I personally prefer having that option toggled off on my tall characters because of the offset, but I still would like my FPV to be placed on the head.

- Another thing that would be great if possible (not sure it can be done seeing how options work), is having the [adjust to height] setting specific to your characters.
For example, right now, the [adjust to height] is great for my small asura but put my camera a bit off on my tall charr.

- I think maybe the vertical adjustment would benefit from a bit more leeway : being able to lower the camera a bit more when the adjustment is on.

This camera update is really great. I love how clear the battlefield is when completely zoomed out (Fighting Tequatl is a delight now)

It is passive standing height. Go to a ready position with your weapons out and it doesn’t move down to where your eyes actually are (in FPM).

I just did some testing. For some reason, this issue isn’t as bad for Asura. Their first person camera is about at eyebrow-height, while all the other races have it at the top of their character model (minus hair and headwear.)

They fixed this!
