I really don't mind either way but it definately takes more work moving around with locked cameras. I have asked around online and some people prefer locked cameras for more "realism". Wanted to see what more people thought.

yea alot of people thing that realism is the best thing to have, its just a stupid craze, and a way for stupid people to judge games, realism isnt always best

i say realism is a fine thing to have, but when gameplay is impaired because of it, that the creator needs to find a common ground between gameplay and realism, so while locked cameras may suit the mood more, it can also make moving and playing more difficult and end up ruining the experience rather than making it better.

Eh, I think the locked cameras are okay, as long as you have enough of a view around your character to know what's going on.
Most of the map is grayed out, anyway, and your site radius is pretty pathetic.

So, I guess I like 'em locked. But I don't particularly like Murder at the Mansion.
:Heh:

Yea, Earth-Fury is right, if it was unlocked, then everyone would know like every secret, and then all the noobs would do just as good as all the pros. I dont think it should be like that it should be Pros > Noobs, not Pros = Noobs

Locked cameras can be frustrating. If you Make a custom camera, and set it like normal but with a Higher/Lower Z ( I'm not sure, what ever makes it go farther away from the target ) would be alright. But with the way it is Unlocked is the way to go.

I know what you guys mean. I'll take your suggestion Hessgasoline and see what I can come up with.

Cameras are too much work, only can do the default locked cameras 8)

How about you simply have an option for each player to use?
