Request Multiball camera

[Jeff Strong]

I know this has been mentioned a few times on the Facebook page, and I'd have to say this is my number one request right now: to have the option to keep your current camera setting when you get multiball (at least if you use the "locked" setting). I use the "low" locked view on all the tables because I find it's the easiest for me to see the ball, so when I get multiball and it switches to the higher angle, it always screws me up. I can already see the whole table from the low view, so there's no need for the switch. I'm hoping we get this option soon

I had this problem with PHOF: WC on No Good Gofers. The automatic camera switch always made it harder for me.

Hi Jeff
I second this. Just a "locked view for standard play and multiball" tick box maybe.

Does anyone know WHY there is a separate multiball camera at all? Personally I think it adds nothing to the game..

it's one of those design choices that nobody wanted or asked for... but I'm sure FarSight has gotten the message by now =)

Yeah, I don't really get it... I can already see the whole table before multiball and I have the camera angle i chose. WHY would anyone think changing to a really high camera view would be beneficial? This is my top annoyance with Pinball Arcade! Hope it gets fixed in the next update...

yep, it throws me off a tad when it changes whilst playin', already selected the view I want and zooming out for multiball doesn't really help me but hinders me.

Yes...this game needs a feature to allow settings to be saved per table and also to allow the camera to stay locked to the current selected view instead of changing views mid game. I hope this is addressed before it's released on consoles next month.

Farsight already mentioned on facebook that the camera settings used in normal play would be stored per table. I hope they will include an option to lock the multiball cam as well.

Anyone noticed the BIG difference between Cam Angle 3 on TOTAN as compared with RBION.
TOTAN's view is much closer to the flippers-which I like on my smaller screened iPhone as feel it offers more accurate shooting. Weird RBION is SO different :/ ?

I'll throw my hat into this as well....On a smaller screen I can see the current option as being good...but on something like the iPad or TV.....staying with your current view would be best to me !

+1, but I want a seperate option to disable multiball camera because I use a scrolling view and just want to fix it in position during multiball, but scroll during normal operation.

Probably not, but I heard that feature was available In a custom ROM

Holy thread bump, superballs. Not sure what you're talking about. Farsight addressed this request long ago.
