i have always liked your third-person camera but wouldn't it be cool if we could see from the view from the actual "cock pit" i don't think anything very special is needed in it (i say alot of specific stuff) but i have always thought that it would be cool in this type of game i have seen it in other games like this one it's called 'Elite:dangerous" that game's view is pretty much its menu system but i thought it could work on the phone especially just instead of the entire screen being taken up bud the HUD how about physical buttons in the cock pit so we can see better and the chat, cargo space, and hull damage can all be holograms on specific parts of the cock pit or at least farther from the screen. does anyone else think that this a good idea? it could make the game more fun for a lot of people out there including me i understand designing stuff like that can be very difficult especially with the "new ships" i hear about. but who knows it could fail entirely or be one of the coolest things to add in your game. If you cant do it now because of a budget or something else your working on at the very least think about it.

of course it's a good idea but it takes up crap loads of dev time that are badly needed elsewhere.

Also, learn to use new paragraphs because it makes most of us not want to read what you write.

That is why i said think about it. (not sounding like a d*ck when i say that)

rgr

fuck me, paragraphs.

Not my work, but somebody has to invoke it:

Even that looks good. Yes i dont realy like seeing through a camera like vendetta online's first person it makes me get disoriented and forget where i am (in game). (Cock pit view) it could help with combat and docking also not confuse me. Think of it this way in a next gen version of grand theft auto v the first person is in the car and through your characters eyes, in vendetta online it could be somewhat the same able to look around the cock pit but have a camera centering button that shows up when your looking around your ship.

I would rather the devs focus on things that impact actual gameplay than on adding things that block my view of the dudes I'm trying to turn into pretty explosions.

if they just added a layer to the foreground that loaded plugins/cockpit.png and handled the png formats transparency layer and then creating your own cockpit image was up to the user that'd be ok. With the default being as it is right now with no cockpit of course.

But once again that's in a world where they're already doing stuff I like and keeps me busy which isn't the case these days

If they did that Spence, I would create the first cock pit cockpit.

everyone loves a nice warm cock pit to get inside

*waits for thread lock*

everyone loves a nice warm cock pit to get inside

I mean, if the armpit is the damp, hairy, stinky part under the arm...

ah geez

Where's that thread lock damnit!!!!

(Bonus WTF image!)

(Locking as requested).

We are looking at doing a basic 3D cockpit, basically to help people orient when using an Oculus Rift or other HMVR display.

It just hasn't bubbled to the top of the development pile yet.
