First Person view looks way too ZOOMED IN

Forza Horizon Legacy Horizon FH4 Discussion

The more I play in first person, the less I want to play it. Almost every single car in the game when used in first person looks way too zoomed in. What I mean is that in real life, the driver position is not staring at HALF THE ROOF. I literally feel like the driver is over 7 feet tall in first person…

How hard would it have been to find a more realistic point of view? How difficult would it be to allow the player to adjust this point of view in the settings? There is an option for driver FOV but it does absolutely nothing to improve the situation. Go look at some real life POV videos of lets say…an Aventador for example and then look at what that looks like in game. I mean to say that’s it’s NOT REALISTIC is a HUGE UNDERSTATEMENT.

Really low effort in my opinion.

I suspect you mean, third person. First person would be closer to bumper-cam, although it’s very low to the ground.

No. It’s almost like you didn’t even read the post and just decided to create your own narrative.

Umm… thanks for that. Have a nice day.

Play on PC

EDIT: I would’ve liked to have the ability to adjust the seat position just like in Project Cars. But currently I am fine with the current FOV adjustment. Mine is set to max.

People are confused because First person isn’t the proper name in Forza. Yes I read your post 10 times and I’m still not sure. They are called cockpit, zoomed cockpit, chase far, chase near, bumper and hood. Now which one is it? These views have not changed except zoomed cockpit since the original Forza Motorsport from the original Xbox. In all my yrs playing Forza I have never heard the words first person. Wouldn’t it be easier to use the proper name for whatever view you are in? Honestly I have no idea, If you see the roof than it is chase (third person) like in a shooter when you are behind your character. Cockpit would be equivalent to first person (in a shooter where you see the weapon in your hands), Instead of clarifying to those trying to help you, you are making snide comments. Just be clear and use the proper terminology. If you don’t like that view try another one cause this is how it is and has always been in Forza.

This is part of his post…“What I mean is that in real life, the driver position is not staring at HALF THE ROOF. I literally feel like the driver is over 7 feet tall in first person…”

That clearly tells me he is talking about cockpit view!

That is my guess as well but roof as in roof above you in cockpit or the roof outside of the car in chase? You see the confusion?

The FOV in Forza Horizon 4 its the best of any other Forza game before! The only issue is surrounding some of the cars like the BMW Z4 2008, The Charger Hellcat.

Otherwise does the Xbox version doesn’t have FOV options? Is it true?

yea only PC has FOV options. Anyway the OP has gone out to lunch apparently
