I'd like to propose an improvement to the bumper camera viewpoint. In almost every racing game, with the exception of one very popular title, the bumper camera is literally positioned at the bumper. As a result, the viewpoint moves precisely with the movement of the bumper itself. This is highly problematic.
Essentially, it simulates the view from the perspective of a bus driver, where the driver's seat is located ahead of the front tires. During cornering, this results in a drastic lateral shift in the scenery as the car’s heading changes. This makes it very difficult to perceive the car's motion and, consequently, makes driving very challenging. To put it dramatically, it's like trying to drive while looking through a telescope.
Positioning the viewpoint at the center of the wheelbase makes the scenery during cornering look much more natural. It also dramatically improves a driver's ability to understand the car’s behavior.
I believe many players find the current bumper camera viewpoint unnatural, but few can articulate the solution: “Positioning the viewpoint at the center of the wheelbase creates a more natural movement.”
While this specific improvement may not have been explicitly requested, I am confident that there is a very large demand for this change.
