This game would be better first person
I'm being shot by people I cant even fit on my screen. It's silly how angling the corners of your screen gives you a combat advantage.

Other than that I love everything else about the game. I wish Battlefield were more like this.

That's my biggest issue, the fact the camera is top down. I'd rather have it at an angle like a third person game if anything.

Fog of War should prevent any cheating in that regard just let me lower it so I can at least see in front of me a bit.

I completely agree, a WW2 MMOFPS with logistics is exactly what we need. I don't think there is a single game like that.

Well, there is WW2 Online but it's pretty dated.

I would prefer if the angle on the camera could moved like in Men of War, not just rotate left and right.

I'm not familiar with Men of War but I was thinking a zoom feature would be great for this game.

How are tanks going to work? They will be shooting at targets one or 2 tank lengths infront of them. A a range that can be driven in like 2 seconds. wuuuut

The Commander will have binos to tell them where to fire and also the game wasn't made to be a FPS, the textures ands stuff aren't made to be looked at very close. I also think it's a interesting path for a game to go with a topdown thing.

And yet you don't know that it will stay this way either. the current view is..... difficult to work with. As HereWasBob stated 'angling the corners of your screen gives you a combat advantage'. An adjustable camera angle that is able to axpand it's field of view would make this game better.

Actually we do know. The devs have stated on a past devstream that they don't want to change it from a top-down game. Making it top-down is part of why Foxhole is well, Foxhole.

If you would make it a FPS it would nothing more then PS2 with worse graphics and a bit more logi, so it wouldnt be anything special.
Screen angling is something that seperates expirianced players from unexpirianced ones.

I didn't mean to rid of the top down view, but just to be able to bank the camera a little.

You don't know how ridiculous that sounds.

yea i think this is a good idea for a game in theory but in practicality - it just kinda sucks. plain and simple. I REALLY wanted this game to have better gameplay, but the FOV and camer angles just ruin for me.
