Third Person Camera Variants?

[Sir Colten]

Is there a way to make the third person camera centered above the character instead of the standard shoulder view? Any suggestions on the matter is appreciated.

so you can helicopter better ?

I doubt it. 3rd person doesn't seem to be terribly encouraged to begin with as you can't even set it to your default. Many people seem to shun it outright.

Which is utterly ridiculous. 3rd person helps avoid the complete lack of peripheral vision one has in 1st person due to computer screens being flat boxes, as well as helps mitigate the issue of the inability to turn your character's head independently from their body to quickly check your surroundings without compromising your positioning.

All the same, my guess is that it's unlikely we'll be seeing any improvements/variant options to 3rd person as people seem to prefer playing like they're wearing horse blinders

Ye man I was looking that up as well.
But apparently they made it specifically like that, so 3rd person doesn't get an advantage.
Even removed camera zoom & tweaking options during beta last year.

Nah. I just want to see more of my surroundings.

It'd be the best game ever if it did that
