nikson2 1 Posted May 4, 2014 Hello!I tried searching if anyone already suggested that but couldn't find any topics about it. I also hope it's not "unneccessary suggestion".What i suggest is that when you are using flashlight and use "ALT" to look around you, flashlight should follow your look. THat's all.Have a nice day,NiKsoN 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mithrawndo 166 Posted May 4, 2014 I agree with your idea, but as the flashlight is treated like a weapon I'm not sure this is possible. Have you tested using a head torch instead? I suspect this does exactly what you're looking for. When holding the alt key your head visibly moves, which infers that a headtorch would follow your camera. Now if only you could wear a head torch over the top of a beanie... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted May 4, 2014 As said, when in 'free look' you just move your head around, not your hands. I do believe that the headlamp works with free look however. Haven't tested it recently but it was at least the last time I tried it. I quite often use both a flashlight and headlamp at the same time when looting at night, covers a bit more area (head lamp seams to cover the ground in front of you and the flashlight directly what you point at it).

byrgesen 1341 Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) The headtorch works with free-look, but the distance it shines is awfull.It aims almost directly at the ground in front of you and ive yet to find a way to adjust it, so basicly its still impossible to see anything beyond 5 meters, unless you lean back so much you can only use the bottom of the screen to see in front of you. Hopefully it will get fixed and we will have the option to adjust it, like a real headtorch.Perhaps PageUP and PageDOWN will be used to adjust it it the future, i sure hope so, because atm its almost useless.

IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted May 4, 2014 The headtorch works with free-look, but the distance it shines is awfull.It aims almost directly at the ground in front of you Which is why I only use it for night looting and night zombie killing. In real life people use the headlamps to see directly in front of them when they walk at night (usually outdoors in rougher terrain) or to look at what they're working on up close. Would be nice if we could adjust the headlamp more (You can a little by not having a flashlight equipped and having your weapon lowered, but still that only like 6-7 meters ahead if that) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
