Suggestion: Improve Ball Cam
So far I'm noticing that the Ball Cam is the best way to keep an eye on the action at all times, and is basically how I have the camera for the entire match. But one thing that really bothers me is that with it on, it's really hard to gauge where the ball is relevant to you when both you and the ball are running along a wall. I'll think I'm nose to nose with it, then somehow I pass under or above it. It's really weird and confusing. If there's any way that could be fixed, I think it would dramatically improve an already great game.

EDIT: I am no longer paying attention to this thread. Its original purpose was to offer a suggestion and nothing more, and it has since deviated from that purpose. The suggestion is valid, there is no reason not to implement it.

I mean, it works well, but it could work better. Like it's just the one aspect, where it's kinda funky on walls.

That's something I intend to do, absolutely, but at the same time why not make that one improvement and make the game that much easier to jump into?

You have a depth perception problem. It's not really the camera's fault.

Works fine when the camera's at any other angle, it's literally just on the walls where it kinda clips partway through the wall unless you're controlling the camera manually. And I'm wearing my glasses, so no depth perception issues there, though that would be worth considering otherwise.

Even with glasses you can still experience depth perception. Some people can't judge the distance or just bad judgment.

Would be nice if there were a ball cam stiffness option, and more camera options in general

There are already too many options apparently, because if you bothered changing the swivel speed, you’d notice that one affects the camera stiffness.

I don't think that's the camera's fault at all, it just takes practice. Changing your camera settings might help a little bit, but it's really something you need to practice with.

I don't really think y'all understand. Just a slight change to the angle when you're on the wall would help a huge amount. And if there's a difficulty that can be eliminated with a change like that, why not make it? Sure, I can learn to deal with it, and I have no trouble doing so, but even still that'd be a nice quality of life adjustment.

What angle? There's plenty of options to do so.

Adjust it more so you have a slightly better view over the top of your car when you're on the wall. That'd do it I think.

Camera height and angle already does that.

... Okay I might be an idiot.
