Config Option for Field of View in "Speed mode"

[comOnBert]

Hi,
if there is one thing i really would like to happen, then it is the option to DE-crease the depth of FOV (Field of View) when riding with speed ..
That's a thing that so many games do and i really think, they all do it too much ..
In Ubisofts "The Crew" it ruined the game for me, because i got sick of it. It's something that developers use to make it more realistic, but instead they use it too much, so it gets totally UN-realistic, imo.
A good example is the just new video of Ben Thomas "Hanging Gardens", where you can see how ridiculously the view bends backwards:

Dear Frontier Devs:
I love your game. Do whatever you think is best for the game, but please add an option to control Speed-FOV.
Well, if you don't, i have to deal with it and i surely will still enoy the game, but .. you know ..

are you talking about when the camera moves in and out or turns slightly during pov rides?

if so, then I would say maybe its a little bit too much and could be toned down a little, but i wouldn't get ride of it completely

I'd get rid of the high speed one. It just looks silly.

Yeah, I hate the FOV effect. I also hate the turning but that's another topic.

I remember mentioning the camera's in a different thread, may have been a Q&A for a live stream (I remember them saying the cameras were improoved)
I really don't like the camera turning before the train / car turns, just like in RCT3, this was especially terrible for Wild Mouse coatsers when the camera would be almost facing 180 degrees on a tight turn. That was fixed by pressing page down, but went back to default if a coaster went underground

yes, the shaking head is a bit weird. There just should be an extra camera for smooth straight first person, i think.
btw, i haven't played the alpha, i'm just a lurker (you say so?) in the moment

concerning FOV: Maybe it's not that bad, when i compare with other POV rides, but nethertheless i stick with my first comment.
