    Camera positions while on a mount.

    Greetings,

    I wanted to give you guys a quick update on what is currently in the works for the camera settings, but keep in mind that there are still a lot of features that aren’t finalized yet.

    There have been many requests in the past for saving the camera position while riding on a mount, but in order to do this, it would be necessary to ready saves for each mount, and there will be a number of mounts introduced in version 2.0. Instead, we will be planning to improve the overall controls and response for zoom in/out as well as gamepad functionality. We will be gathering feedback from everyone in regards to these control improvements during the future beta test.

    Additionally, the development team has looked into allowing the camera to zoom out even further when riding on goobbues, but it was determined that it would not be possible due to the character and goobbue getting caught up in dungeons, trees, and roofs.

    Here's an idea, center the camera on the character like it should be instead in the middle of the mount.
    Referring back to my thread: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...era-plz-fix-it

    There's 2 things you could do about this.

    1)increase the camera height a little more so you can see over the goobbue's top
    2) Make the goobbue transparent when the camera is too close

    Mounts at or after 2.0? Does this mean Goobbue will be the only unique mount for all of us coming in from Pre-2.0? I was hoping wed get the ahriman and drake before 2.0. It would be cool to have all of those only available to the pre 2.0 guys.

    Oh and the Lalafell comment was funny btw.

    That's a shame. The big reason I don't bother too much with the goobbue is 'cause I don't like watching that cottage cheese jiggle. :P

    Is that mount still a possibility? I heard it was a decision between goobbue mount or eye mount and they went with goobbue mount. I would be excited if eye mount is still in the works. But seriously Lalafell mounts need to happen I got one I wanna name Anony Moose.
