I use to play since Trackmania Nations in 2006 with the view n° 1, now there is only view n°2 and 3
It's totally unplayable for me.
WHY did u remove this view??? WHY?????
All these stupid mistake cost u bad reviews on steam and it's perfectly deserved.

As this is a port of a pc game to console back to pc a lot of stuff gets lost during the progress, i get that part..
what i don't get is the fact there's no 3rd camera view anymore.

if I press C i can only switch between (maniaplanet/tmn eswc/tmnforever) numpad 2 and numpad 3 style camera.
numpad 1 style camera however is gone.
To me that's the biggest flaw of the game

here's why:

• if you do groceries and you fill your grocery cart you always make sure you can see where you're going.
  (camera view of numpad1)
  That's why you don't stack stuff so high you can only watch forward...
  (which is exactly the case with the camera view of numpad2: you can't see where you're going)
  
  Cam numpad 1 shows what's ahead of you while still maintaining a view of your car,
  cam2 has the nasty habit of blocking your view when you're going up or are in mid air

anyways, really hope the cam (num1) will be added in an update for all versions so everyone can see where they're going

Yep, i always played with camera 1 because the 2 is too low and in some jump you can't see s**t, only the back of the car.
I REALLY hope that Nadeo will bring back this camera... :'(

I would like to see Cam1 too. For me it's really ugly drive with cam2 (in stadium) because I have 0 feeling for it. In Canyon/Valley/Lagoon I don't have a problem with it.^^

+1 it is a must to bring back this camera!

We want cam1 back!
I know I'm not very good at racing, but I always use cam1, and now, in newest TM game it isn't :/

I think the default cam is cam1 in tmt? It looks like the same

What do you have, i like it...

The camera is way too close to the car indeed

Nah mate you can't say this, it is the "cam2". It's far from being "cam1". It just make stadium unplayable for me (others envis aren't a big problem [but still...])

Dear Nadeo, I'd say it goes without saying that I'm a fan, but after nearly 4 years of cam1 in Canyon there's no way I can play with cam2. It feels like playing with binoculars on my face, except for Stadium because the car is so flat. So, unfortunately, it's a no purchase from me. (I haven't preordered a game in over 6 years and stuff like this is why.) Never thought I'd pass on this game, but I think you guys underestimated the need for a few features.
