Camera Angles... Cockpit/Interior/Dashboard View? Or Exterior Angles Only?

I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to know if one of the handful of camera angles will be INSIDE the car.. I understand that a big part of the game is customization (for both performance, and the appearance), and if you were to have a camera angle inside the car, you wouldn't be able to see most of the customizing you've done to the cars appearance.. However, I would still LOVE to have that option to be able to drive using a camera angle from inside, where I would be able to see the steering wheel and the dashboard. That is the camera angle I use most of the time in racing games, I do occasionally switch things up and change it to a camera angle behind the car- but I mainly use the interior camera angle..

I have high hopes for this game! I haven't bought a need for speed game since "pro street", "shift", and  "shift 2"... I tried rivals and was very disappointed, and did not consider buying it after having played it for maybe 2 hours! Another thing I would love to have is the option for a manual transmission- so hopefully that will happen as well as the interior camera angle(s)...

  • Amazing will be if this happens, please Ben, Marcus Nilsson, we want cockpit view again since HP2. ❤️

  • It's best if we wait until EA Play starts to get these types of questions answered, because they're not gonna tell us anything beforehand.

    I'm very disappointed and sad because yet we don't have a main thing of the first five games from this franchise: Cockpit/dashboard view!

    I don't see the problem in telling us if a game has a basic feature such as in in car, bonnet or full screen bonnet height view in their game.

    I know what you mean and am totally with you. For too long now, this series has been severely lacking for anyone who likes in in car view, be it full cockpit, bonnet view or full screen bonnet height view from the car, and this omission is unforgivable as that is a lot of people's preference and how they prefer to play driving games, not everyone want to feel they are para-sailing behind the car they are controlling, but want to feel like they are 'IN' it...

    If this game doesn't have at least one of the views i listed above, then i won't be buying their product, it really is as simple as that for me, and i know doing a cockpit view might have it's complications, how hard can it be is to put a full screen or bonnet view in, seriously, no-one likes being forced to use an out of car view when they don't want to use that view, choice is always best.

  • @mike41062 It is a nice wish...but sadly it's not in the game! (Confirmed)!

    Thank you for your idea and wonderful explanation you posted.

    Seriously?! Wow... that is really really poor.... Shame, as it liked like it could be decent were it not for the lack of views... not interested in playing behind the car in an arcade style view. just like the last game then, this'll be yet another no purchase. Oh how a mighty series has fallen...
