Topic: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

I was wondering what the teeworlds community prefers. Of course, dynamic cam is on by default, but I don't personally use it. What do you all think?

It's really cool if you know where your enemies will come from. smile

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

I've never turned it off. The only bad thing about dynamic camera is that there are players that think they are the better ones just because they don't need it. And everyone else is a dyn noob.
Fortunately, they aren't that many. ^^

I think the voting system should be removed again.

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

Can not agree any more. We should do a vote for that!

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

It seems more people do not use dynamic camera. When I first started playing the game I found it very awkward to get used to and my movement was really off. My purpose of this poll was to perhaps suggest that dyn cam be turned off by default. It might help keep new players around longer.

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

I agree with Nilaya, when I first started playing I had no idea what the dynamic camera was for. tongue I have never used it since, it makes me so dizzy. tongue

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

Remove it and I'll have to learn Teeworlds all over again...

15

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

I use both, on for zcatch, off for ctf, toggle for things like ddrace.

It should definitely be off by default.

16

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

It should definitely on by default. smile I have it turned on in all gametypes since I started playing teeworlds and it hasn't disturbed me at all.

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

Should be on by default. New tees don't care if they can spin better with or without and they get an obvious "advantage".
If they want to get rid of this feature, they can simply turn it off. But at least they should know, that something like this does exist.

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

On the other hand, if they are new to the game, they might not know that it can be turned off. It works both ways. I would think that the curious might turn it on to see what it's like and if they like it, they can stick with it.

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

Agreed with heinrich and Slayer.

They will google to get a bot/hack, as they get the feeling other tees with dyn cam activated have a "view-hack".

Should be off by default because new players get confused of a dynamic cam and it is more difficult to handle it. The dynamic cam has an advantage, yes, but new players care much more about other things that this little advantage, for example handling the movement! If they want to have this advantage and can handle it, they can simply turn it on. Like you and me.

I remember when i started playing teeworlds (or should I say "Teewars"?). I used the dyn cam actively to get a better view and see much more stuff. But I can't remember that it affected my movement. Are you really sure, the dyn cam will impede the movement of a new tee, when he just uses a s d space to turtle around?

The default settings should fit best to new tees, so they can get into the game easiest. As long as new tees aren't instantly able to spin like crazy, dyn cam is rather an advantage.

Re: [POLL] Dynamic Camera

Very representative vote... You don't know the players' reasons for not using dynamic camera. Maybe they don't use it because they spin like many high-level players?

You won't find much newbies in this forum - but one should probably ask them.
