Dying & perspective - Guild Wars Forums

Wolfedude · Jun 04, 2005, 09:17 PM // 21:17

I have found that after i get killed during one of my PvE encounters that after resurrection I am unable to regain the same perspective I had before death. In other words, I am looking down upon my character and cannot regain the same "look down and out" perspective I had before dying. After dying I look too much downward and not far enough ahead. I can zoom in and play first person but other than that I do not have a forward enough perspective to play with the vision I prefer and am used to.

I don't know if I have been descriptive enough to state what I want, but am curious whether I can somehow regain the same "view" I had before dying. As you can imagine this is very difficult when questing with others. I have to actually log off the game and rejoin to regain my lost perspective.

Any suggestions?

The right mouse button is used to control the camera. Hopefully, you already know this.

Yeah, the camera moves up above you when you die and remains sorta high when you're ressed. I've never had a problem holding the right-mouse button to move the camera back to a more level view after death though.

Shoot even while dead and selecting my teammates to put my camera on them, I haven't had trouble controlling the camera. I love that feature.
