    Replace the current one with this.

    It's already in the game, just make it standard.

    I'd say no. We could definitely use a tweak to the camera at this time, but that view complete negates any kind of peripheral vision like what's allowed with the current camera placement. Your request would leave you with tunnel vision and make you vulnerable to flanking attacks.

    Centered camera would make this game tremendously better with absolutely zero downsides. Just saying facts here...

    You git! Have you not played orks lately? You can't aim over the bloody walls without bracing on the wall itself, if it's not unbrace-ably bugged. We need dis! I'd rather have full clarity tunnel vision with me dakka than say "Well'p I can't see the bastard on my left because the zogging camera is concentrated on my bloody right arm!!"

    I play only Orks good sir. And I honestly have few problems currently. Sure, it can be tweaked a bit and made better. But I personally prefer being able to see where I'm being shot from rather than having to rotate around and around like a fortress turret to find my enemy.

    Also as a side note, that view would make it terribly difficult to roll in any direction other than forward with any accuracy. Side rolls would be practically blind. Therefore I continue my naysaying of this particular option.

    In what way? The FoV is the same, except now your character doesn't obscure 40% of it.
    Moving the camera above the character REMOVES the deadzones that are currently behind it.
    You GAIN nearly half of your peripheral vision back. How can that leave you tunnel visioned?

    What you say is completely backwards to reality.

    I concede that it might be good for ranged but I'm feeling it could be detrimental for melee players. Also I can't see the sweet cosmetics on my character.

    There is literally no situation where it would be detrimental, at worst melee characters could get the further elevated mortar-mode camera they added recently.

    Hell, the placement in the screenshots still isn't perfect(you can't aim upwards with it), but it's more about the spirit of it (elevated, centered camera) than the exact implementation.
