Legacy (Camera Based) Camera Style bug :(

This camera style is almost 100% needed to play archer well for kiting purposes, but it has a very horrible bug, when its zoomed in by a wall it doesn't zoom back out, and it thinks its still zoomed all the way out because you have to zoom in a bit before it will let you zoom back out. Its making me sick to my stomach always getting my camera stuck in my business :(

Agreed. I want to zoom out and...not have to keep zooming out whenever I'm moving backwards or my camera hits a surface. I would hope something is done about it because it's making me want to play a melee class instead.

I wasn't having too much trouble tbh while I played on my PS3 gamepad but I decided to switch over to M+KB and I think my mouse wheel is going to get wrecked. :(

Exactly, its really bad because its not just sometimes, its very simple to see what it's doing, and it absolutely cannot stay like this, its SO frustrating to have the (better) camera just be unusable because of a bug, but having your view being shoved in your face and having to manually fix it every time is just too much to deal with, especially in close quarter fights, long ones causing this to happen 3+ times, you start focusing more on your camera than the fight itself. x.X

Needs more backing, I'd really like this fixed.

this definitely needs fixing. it's super annoying especially in toto-rak with the narrow corridors.

PLEASE make the camera reset back to original position after hitting a wall!

Exactly, toto and manor are HORRIBLE about this, anywhere indoors really, you're constantly having to scroll out. I'm developing a habit and I really don't like it. x.X

A little more justice calling. I understand its not a hot topic since its not the default camera but if everyone tried it, they'd realize it's the better camera style (especially for bards), but since its not default most people don't notice the issue, however it absolutely needs fixed.

I hate this as well.

For the meantime I use CTRL+END to Set my Camera position to a desired angle/distance, and just press END when the camera starts zooming in on my toon's ass.

Tedious, but until we get a fix, I'll stick to this workaround.

I didn't know about this, maybe I can work that in now too, but its pretty sad that these are the measures we have to take xD

I would like this addressed as well. It sucks when I am fighting Garuda and my camera ends up getting caught on a rock and I have to re zoom it out.

hmmmm. this seems to either be PC related or keyboard/mouse related.

i use the same camera style on the PlayStation 3. Legacy is the default camera setting. i can zoom the camera all the way out and walk through a small hall or corridor and when coming out the camera zooms all the back out again. never seem to have this problem. :/

I play on PC. Standard when zoomed out, put it in front of a rock and move, it automatically bounces back rather quickly. When switching to Legacy hitting a wall in which it zooms it all the way in will cause it to get stuck. It thinks this is the fully zoomed out distance, because generally you have to scroll in (just 1 tick) before you can start zooming out again when using the mouse wheel. I run and turn my camera using the mouse (left+right MB to run, just right if I only want to turn the camera). Those are some more specifics.

Hello! I apologize for the inconvenience the legacy control scheme is causing you. As this is not technically a bug report, I'll have to lock this thread down. But I have good news! There's a place for problems like this, which can be found Here! Please consider making a post there, as it is more likely to be properly addressed. Thank you!
