So I absolutely LOVE this game's photo mode. It's incredible. However, I'd like to see some small additions (Maybe they aren't so small behind the scenes, not sure!). And I think both together would be excellent! These small additions would be Eye-tracking and Motion Freeze.
With these two things together, I think a lot of photo mode pictures could be improved. It's always kind of a bummer when V's got this vacant stare, looking out in some random direction.
With that, I'd also like to see more poses, and a couple of pose options. Stuff like...
There's also a few small issues. It's easy to see when big revolvers don't quite fit in your hand right, but I'd also like to see Muzzle Flash go from On or Off, to Off -> Unsuppressed -> Suppressed. Right now even suppressed guns have this big-ass muzzle flash. Also, many guns with slides don't show the slides sliding back when Muzzle Flash is on, so it doesn't look like the gun is really firing.
Lastly, and this might be a big one... I'd love to see Animated Poses. Combined with Motion Freeze, imagine being able to actually line up a melee swing with an enemy, or play a ducking animation and move V right under an enemy's swing. Or get a picture of a gorilla-fisted V actually slugging someone in the face. While this one is kind of a long shot, other games (like, once again, Final Fantasy XIV) have implemented things like this, and it makes their community very willing to share screenshots and images of all kinds!
Thanks for reading my guys, love u
- Eye-tracking. Have you noticed it's hard to get V to look exactly where you want him to? If an enemy is ducking down, or too tall, or if you want V to be looking at something out of the corner of his eye... well, it's impossible. What I want is a toggle that makes V's eye's track the current location of the camera, usable with any pose. Then you can place the camera on whatever you want V to be looking in the direction of. That said, that isn't very useful by itself, and I think the "Look at Camera" option isn't very useful either, because there is no...
- Motion Freeze! I'd like to see a toggle that freezes V's current pose in place. Other photo modes have this, such as gpose from Final Fantasy XIV. Essentially, once you have V looking or eye-tracking in the direction you want, you could hit a button to freeze him in place, locking the animation. Then he could look or face in any direction you'd want!
With that, I'd also like to see more poses, and a couple of pose options. Stuff like...
- Attacking with a melee weapon (Not posing, swinging-... like a vertical slice with a katana, or a baseball bat swinging pose, or raising a hammer up)
- Attacking with cyberware (Gorilla arms, nanowire, mantis blades, projectile launcher)
- Posing with cyberware
- Doing the various pistol-only poses (Cover Shot, Cyberyoga, etc.) with revolvers and SMGs
- Reloading firearms
