Great news, have been patiently waiting for this. I'll be making some highlight videos for sure. I'll also be spending some money in the FD store to reward them for coming through with it. Well done chaps!
New Camera Mode
- Thread starter vindicator jones
- Start date
They defected to Star Citizen, so they can wait for an external camera to be implemented to have something to complain about?

On a more concerning note however.. how will the controls for this work? From the Livestream, it looks like they're using an IcksBox, but for real gamers, I've already mapped every button and switch on my throttle and stick to control something so.. what am I going to use to control my camera?
I do have two as-of-yet unassigned modes on my G13 pad, so I'll likely end up mapping camera controls there. Anybody know where I can get a 3rd arm?

Great post. Totally agree. Where have they gone?[big grin]
The new camera system is of course a welcomed update - as is the avatar creator, but when you've got ED's competitor creating so content surrounding space legs, IMO these additional features are merely feeding hungry hounds a snack when they really want to ge their teeth into something a lot more substantial.
I really am impressed with what the update's brought to the table. But, space legs with the ability to explore ships and space stations is what FD needs to bring to the table. Sure, not all Cmdrs agree and would like to see attention and resources spent else where, but there's a huge number of FD's customers who I know will migrate to their competitor unless they introduce space legs to the game sooner or later. The fact you've now got the background of a ship in the avatar creator leads me to believe space legs and ship exploration is already in the making.

Counting the days to finally be able to use the third-person view in this game. I'm glad that FD finally broke this barrier of everything being in first person. Good move FD, congratulations.
