FPS mode

Heather finds out why it's true that you shouldn't talk to strangers. Or look in mirrors, quite honestly.

FPS mode

Post by SHF »

ive read somewhere that if u press L1+L2 and some other button, heather will go into a fps mode, similiar to the one in SH4.
Is this true?

First person shooter mode. Basically rather than the camera being over/behind your character, you look through their eyes. Like Henry when he was in his apartment.

Where are you getting all these rumors from? It's fake.

I see.

No, this is not true, never happened in the game. It's fake.

It's possible to enter what resembles FPS-like sequences; you can do it from either zooming the camera correctly or utilizing a unique camera angle.

It's nifty sometimes, but not practical at all. There are many instances where you can adjust the camera to be right over Heather's shoulder and the gameplay is still smooth, though.

Zoom mode is not the same as a FPS mode.

In whichever case, the camera control button is L2 and the camera zoom button is L3. (Press down on the left analog stick.)

Adjust the camera and then press the zoom button if you want to get a better look at things. It's great for picking up on some details.

EDIT Oh, and you can double zoom.

I might add that the zooming on the PC version is much more magnified than it is on the PS2 version.

^If that's the case then you should drop the "shooter".

That's pretty nifty. I had no idea that pressing L3 activated zoom. I knew about equipping stuff on the item screen and pressing R3 to use it, but that's it. Cool!
I always push the RED button.
