You won't know what that mob is because you can't see them without stopping your auto-run and turning around. Chase cam = bad idea. No thanks.

If it was implemented, it would be an option. As it would be an option, the player would have the choice of turning it on or off. If you don't like it, you don't have to turn it on.

Options are a beautiful thing. Most gamers love options.

That's why the mouse left-click should let you manually-pan, instead of doing nothing. It would be great in instances, like you mentioned, such as while auto-running.

The controls are set up like that in so many other MMOs, that I still try to left-click pan while auto-running. It drives me crazy that I can't.

IMO, having to manually pan all the time is inefficient. I need to be spending my time healing my party, not worrying about juggling my camera. I would like a 'chase camera' option.

I agree that we need more camera controls, this way we can get much better and more dynamic under pantsu shots.

Too bad character models vanish if you zoom in too close to them, else I'd be doing that all day...

LOL, that's a pro tip?

Let me guess, the only other MMO you've played is FFXI?

Besides, that's a little arrogant to assume that everyone should want to play the same way you do.

If you think that only 'noobs' play with a chase cam, you can turn it off. But don't deny others something that would make our gameplay more enjoyable.

I would really like a chase-camera option like FFXI.

The camera man in this game is just lazy.

He is so slooow.

Yes please
