First person view

THIS IS A MUST HAVE I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS CAN BE LEFT OUT... FIRST PERSON WALKING AROUND THE PARK WITH FRIENDS ONLINE IN MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!! [yesnod]
 
The first person view side is already available by clicking the guest and using the camera option.

As for the multiplayer side, they may well be considering this for Alpha 3 (community side).

First person view is availeble, yes.... but this is about controlling the peep... like a FPS game, to just wander around your park... and make use of rides, amenities, etc.
 
This could also be great if you want to see how your queue looks like or if you maybe forgot one place inside of the building. A test peep that can randomly placed and is controlled by wasd or somthing like that would be amazing.
 
Make no mistake, I would rather they added first person view without park interactions than not add it at all. as long as its possible to see the park from first person that is VERY important and not hard to implement in a game like this.
 
We need this so bad.. it would be so damn damn cool if we could discover the parks of other community members just by walking trough it and trying all the attractions :)
This game is still going to be the best amusementpark tycoon game but with this feature it will be a evergreen [squeeeeee]

And we allready can follow people, so for me it seems that it can't be soo damn much work to just take that snippet of code and write some more lines for giving us the control than just following..

I like the idea of having your own peep and being able to explore your park, or even explore other peoples parks. The fact that you could go wherever you want would be amazing! Now we can see first person of peeps, but to be able to control one would be AMAZING!!
 
It would be even better if they could implement support or compatibility for something like the "Virtuix Omni" which is a virtual reality setup that enables the user to "walk" or interact further with the environment of his/her surroundings now THAT would be a major plus for this game [yesnod]

Yeah, being able to roam around my park (and Friends') from the perspective of a guest would be a welcome addition. It'd also be great if we could do it with our avatar and take pictures at the designated photo locations.
 
I'm craving for the first person view! In RCT3 it was nice to make a ride in your rollercoaster, but I like to see more. I want to walk around in my park and experience my whole creation, not just my rides.

Would be really nice if they implemented the Zoo Tycoon kinda thing. You can walk around and with pressing the spacebar you can do tasks your employees normally would do.

Wow surprised most people still don't know the cheat code from Alpha 2. But if you search for "tegidcam" (no quotes) on any menu in the game (like scenery), it will lock your camera to guest height, which you can control with WASD. The camera height will adjust depending on your relation with the surface below you, so you will move up stairs and terrain like a normal person.

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to bring this up... I think it only works in rides or coasters catagory though. I remember it not working for scenery in alpha 3
 
Absolutly !!!!!!! [up]


in all honesty, and i could be completely wrong, but i think they held off on this for release as they might be secretly working on VR support (its something that takes a large amount of time to implement correctly) and may be holding off on this until that is ready, again, i could be completely wrong, but VR is pushing and PC seems to be passionate and willing to move with the flow of technology.

another reason i feel this, is because we had the "tegidcam" cheat in alpha, which put you in a rough FPS view.....why would that be available if they were not working on something already?.....this was a clue to me that VR may be in the works when they released that fun cheat, but didnt have fully working FPV on release.

thats just my theory on the evidence at hand.

all you do is walk around, sort of, its super rough, and you cant ride the rides and you move very fast, and the perspective is kind of weird, it seems like massively early work to what we are suggesting now, so i wouldnt be surprised if its on its way.
 
Yes, BIG +1 :D It would be very nice to have a peepcam.

Btw. so long thread and any DEV post? Seems suspicious [mouth shut]
 
+1 this. Totally agree with the first person idea. I believe Theme Park World (which was a game available on PC and consoles like PS2) had a "camcorder" feature which allowed you to free-roam around your park, ride your attractions and even play sideshow games! Hopefully an update will be added implementing both this and sideshow games. :)
