Guild Wars 2

Everyone who went in the Mad King dungeon will know what I mean.

When you left the dungeon, you could zoom out maybe 3 or 4 times further than normal, and the ability to zoom out so far followed you between waypoints, into WvW, everywhere.

It only reset to normal after re-logging, but you could quickly go in the MK dungeon and get it back again.

The screenshots and videos that people posted in this amazing zoomed out mode are the most beautiful and awe-inspiring I’ve seen since I saw the very first promo videos of GW2.

Why can’t we zoom out that far all of the time?

I had ZERO issues with it, no clipping, no disappearing scenery, nothing. It was PERFECT.

With the MK zoom enabled, I found myself appreciating far more of the gorgeous artwork of the game, the octupus chandeliers in the LA bank, never saw those before. The gorgeous interiors of StoneMist and the Keeps in WvW, which I’d never appreciated, the amazing rolling hills and countryside of Queensdale…

It was like playing a whole new game, a far more beautiful, engaging game, that sense of claustrophobia was gone and I felt really connected to the world of Tyria!

BRING BACK THE MAD KING ZOOM LEVEL!

This is not what I mean at all. The change to vertical FOV has almost no impact on how far out you can zoom.

Did you play the Mad King Dungeon?

Experienced that bug too: http://imgur.com/Fd3qs
If they ever did this (add an option to not only hide the UI but also the character model), they’d have to do it only for PvE, not WvW/PvP.

Yes! The uber zoom is what I want, as per your screenshot…

Not sure what you’re talking about hiding character models though? That is not what I’m suggesting at all…

When I did the MK dungeon and got the uber-zoom activated, it followed me into WvW and PvP just fine, and I had a whale of a time. I didn’t gain any tactical advantage though, since everyone else had it too…

I meant they should add the other option so you can take better shots of the landscape without your character on it. In WvW and PvP it definitely adds a tactical advantage, so the range shouldn’t be increased there.

I would like to have this feature back in the game. I really like to zoom out far and appreciate the scenery

was lovely i need that in game
