WWE 2K19: 10 Biggest Changes 2K Must Make
7. New Camera Angles
Again, this point tears down 2K's rather strict need to simulate the feel of WWE television and how that sometimes strangles player customisation.
Having a default camera angle is absolutely fine, especially when the fixed one players get in 2K's series is the same hard cam view WWE present on programming. Would it really kill them to add in the option for different camera angles on top of that? This is a video game, after all, not a Kevin Dunn-produced television show.
For example, seeing the action from the front row, ringside commentary desk, ring corner or even further away would be a nice touch. Alternatively, making use of that free rotate ability 2K already have sitting (for editing video highlight reels) makes sense. How players view their matches should be left up to them.
There are no excuses. In other sports games that aim to imitate TV presentation in a similar way, like FIFA, gamers can still tweak the camera angle to their liking and move away from that traditional side-on perspective.
