Which view do YOU use for driving?

[ENDURANCEGUY]

Hey there! I'm just posting a poll on which view you use to drive in GT5. As for me, I always use the interior view for both standard and premium cars.

Gee, I'm surprised on how many people checked this out in under a day.
By the way, check out my team, NGR. Just click my name.

Can you change the poll so that you are able to make multiple selections? I use bumper for normal cars and roof for F1 cars.

 

[Tornado]

Roof cam, except for cars where circumstances prohibit it.

 

[ENDURANCEGUY]

I just did. I'm a little slow, I wanna make sure my english is right.

 

[Jay]

Interior view.

Online I sometimes use bumper cam for the good fixed rear view mirror.

 

[HuskyGT]

Cockpit. That's the only way to go, except with standards in which I use chase cam.

Chase cam is the least realistic, but I like it a lot because of the sound and nostalgia for older games that it makes me feel. And since I've been playing with this cam since the first GT, it feels very natural for me.

If all cars had a detailed interior, I wouldn't use anything but cockpit, though.

Roof or "hood" view is very good as well for judging corners and drifting, but I don't use that one anymore unless I'm in dirt or snow with a standard car, in which chase cam does not help too much.

Bumper cam is the only one I dislike although many people preffer it. First of all, you can't see the beauty that your driving, second, it's very hard to judge corners, and third... it's not fun basically...

cockpit view. Always.

 

[dr3w]

the view which you can't see any part of the car, what do you call it?

 

[rumblina]

That would be bumper cam. I use it for standards & interior view for premium & standards with actual cockpits.

Ummm, I think you mean bumper view. The view with a mirror in the top middle of the screen?

I'll try. I do not know how. I'm rarely active in the GTP forums. Just on my team thread.

yea the one that the tacho is round instead of a bar, what do you call the camera that all you can see is just the bonnet of the car?

 

[1000milestare]

3rd person view since gt1.

 

[G24]

Only cockpit mode

 

[dr3w]

and which is the chase cam that everyone is complaining about?

 

[Suzumiya]

I either use chase or cockpit, that's it.

 

[papapeedz]

bumper cam all the way. It feels the most natural in my opinion/

 

[JDMKING13]

Cockpit view only Premium or Standard.

 

[Mac K]

Roof cam, the new wind sounds make it a little more difficult to drive quieter cars, but I'm getting used to it.

 

[Juiposa]

Cockpit view power!

 

[jagdrag77]

Cockpit all the way 👍

 

[PAWEL17]

Varied, bumper cam for serious online races, cockpit for A-spec, and chase cam for when i'm using a DS3.

 

[ChrisGT]

Cockpit with all the HUD garbage turned off. I like it realistic

If I'm just messing around I'll use chase cam to hear the exhaust and see the backfire when slamming gears

 

[redragon95tr]

cockpit&bumper, depends on the situation. and if i'm driving a new car or a car that i love, i use the chase cam to hear the sound better

👍 You very much described how I play. I sometimes use the roof view though...

 

[llNovall]

Cockpit view, all cars.....only way to go

 

[Tenacious D]

Roof view for the most part, though I'm schooling myself on cockpit view. It's not as bad as I thought once I got used to it. But for most races, roof. You get a nice view of the road which is rather like the way you can see all the track in real life, you get your peripheral vision by default, you're roughly on the car's center of gravity, you get a good view of turns... what's not to love? And Toronado a roofer too? Small internets!

 

[JDMKING13]

While in cockpit view I have notice that the tearing is gone and the cockpit shake and dynamic has been improved. Cockpit view with no HUD= Amazing.

 

[AlphaAndius]

My standard is the bumper view (although I am glad it is not literally on the bumper for every car, I loathe such a low level view). Its the view that insures me my fastest laps and most accurate direction and maneuvering.

However, I have spent loads of times in interior views. Once I figure out the "center" line of the cockpit, I am freebird!

Although in cases were I am fighting for a position or too close too car at the side, I switch to chase cam briefly to measure and avoid making contact with my close rival. Same deal in NASCAR racing (or close oval racing in general), the car packs can become so tight, I need 100% of info regarding my exact surroundings to avoid making contact with the other cars. Only chase cam can provide me such accurate input when crazy close racing occurs.

Interior view for all cars, as I never hover behind my car IRL. Before the 2.0 update, I only used standards when I absolutely had to. Now I drive them every day. If I concentrate on the driving, having the cockpit blacked out doesn't really bother me.
