Hi, was falling asleep and had a brainstorm.
It's a simple fix to the eve universe.
A mounted camera on the front of each ship, i.e. a
Secondary camera, 1) from afar (bot cam) 2) bolted camera to ship.
Secondly, if you know how a 12 sided dice looks like, and compare that to picture 1*, I can then describe how moving would be done in the mounted cam view.
Each side of a spot can scroll or slide to any other 5 sides of a 12 sided dice (cube), hence the arrows, that are a real basic way of describing some sort of mechanism to scroll or slide to 1 of 5 sides connected to the current main view(12 sided cubes, current side being seen via ship mounted camera).
You might be think öWHAT!ö but on the side of the cube a mouse option would be to move the view around within the confides of the side, much like a camera could, movement would me instant for the players perspective, yet the ship would sluggingly sync with current view point.
Other then pressing the arrows to access other side of 12 sided cube (dice). That is that.
This would seem like a joystick scenario, but I am very sure if this is done proper no more lag could be out of this had then the normal camera bot view..

Plz, give us some fead back, and u have my vote to make agent mission drones more smart and unpredictable.

More like WTF? You do realize camera position has nothing to do with server side lag, right?
Also this has nothing to do with this forum.

If you are looking to run EVE with a joystick, search this forum, there's a tool out for that.

I would approve of a Zoom into ****pit/fixed cam option that could be turned on in your settings.
Undocking from jita and getting a true feel for the size of ships ,piloting a lumbering freighter with slow sways and turns.
Some minnie ships would look cool with bits protruding at top of screen.
Maybe not practicle on fighting but a nice GFX tweak/option.
The only thing they would need to fix before hand is the 180 degrees flip you sometimes get before a warp as that would make me puke on my lap in my ship.

A Bridge/front mounted cam would rock, you would get the feeling how big stuff is etc
