let us zoom out more

[hipsu]

Whats wrong with the zoom in this game? It feels like you're always zoomed in and too close to your units but the game does not let you zoom out further...

[NotRespondingToArmCResearchers]

This might compromise their Console Release Plans which seems to be the main motivation with some of their design decisions.

Relic might add an option like they did with AOE 4 where you could pick a different camera height in the settings. Otherwise the ZoomMod and eventually a lot of the Big Tuning Mods will allow you to zoom out more.

Mods should add more content and enhance the Game, but they should not have to fix core problems

The zoom isn’t a problem. It was an intentional design choice

This is critical for us PC players. It makes absolutely no sense to limit it... It's objectively inferior.

Simply normalize the Zoom Out MOD vis-a-vis a MAX CAMERA HEIGHT toggle in settings...

It'd be amazing.

Or theyre still working with a dodgy 2006 engine and cant be bothered to fix it.

i dont mind the zoom at all, makes you focus on less units at a time less macro intensive. (is macro the right word)?

[Scion]

I could almost deal with the lack of zoom if the UI didn't effectively take up half of the screen. The combination of a claustrophobic screen and the low zoom level is ridiculous on PC. I'm not sitting on a couch 5 metres away, I don't need giant boxes with kinder-garden sized font.

I remember strugling to adjust to other rts games after playing Supreme Commander.

[Surrexen]

The fun bit here is that in some campaign missions the camera zooms out further than normal because of the verticality and it looks really good.

if you call it "intentional" i will call it " Design flaw "

want to know why?

First Firing range in this game is abit longer than the previous coh .

Medium tank should most likely to shoot around half the screen and the tank destroy should be around near full screen or above.

for this game Medium tank just shoot nearly a full screen . we dont have to talk about tank destroy

Everything start to go chaotic after you have around 2 - 3 tank in the same time . it require you to jumping around the screen more often than the previous CoH . because everything just shoot too far you have to make a micro adjustment alot


we need more zoom level . it will make the life easlier

i dont care about console garbage ♥♥♥♥ . Rts game is not design to play on it


maybe we have nothing to do about Shooting range .
just one more zoom level it should be BIG quality of life

second Hud design is a trash big enough to cover my mom ass


combine with both of these . do you think it really a " intentional " ?

just a option to Scaling UI and 1 more zoom level , is that too much to ask ?

It's likely a design choice and has been a part of the COH micro meta since COH1. Learn to use your hot keys/map and zoom rarely becomes an issue

Yeah its too much dude it just cant happen cuz then the 4 5 fanboys that play 1v1 are gonna be triggered and say that you need more zoom because you lack skill wich is complete BS

Kinda sad they released a coh3 the whole game is so broken would of loved if they didnt release it at all ever

[Loco]

Would love to be able to zoom out more (in campaign and without a mod).

[sigh]

Relic are ♥♥♥♥ these days. Last game they devd, they dropped bolters and abandoned.
This prolly wont be any different.

[Rytir]
