Bring Back Head Turning When Alt-Looking#377

You think you’re sneaking up on someone but they’re looking at you the whole time but you can’t see it because the head does not turn anymore when you alt-look. This should definitely make a comeback. You should know if someone is looking your way.

THIS TOPIC IS URGENT. You think they didnt see you and you are rushing them but then they turns back instantly and kills you.

@y88cdw not really. If they animate (mocap, template, manually rig) the head, neck, and upper torso they can visually represent the character looking +/- 180 behind them. It’d be a lot of work though.

Now, if they only animate the head and neck then yes; visually it’d look weird past a +/- 90 degrees, unless they cap the animation at +/- 90 degrees even when the player is alt-looking more than +/- 90 degrees.

I personally think, that it would kinda defeat the purpose of alt looking.

This would defeat the purpose of alt looking because people will know if you are trying to make plays. generally it would just be a pain in the ass for players that are actually good at the game and would benefit players that just get mad at the fact they cant make plays properly. Easy fix, expect the unexpected.
Just having this added could make players rage even more but it would lower the chances of players thinking that they just died by a hacker. I personally dont like this idea because it would ruin my chances of making plays but i still believe that it is beneficial if you are trying to get rid of hack accusations.

You should be able to tell if someone is looking at you. Makes no sense that people can look at you without you being able to tell.

Honestly I don’t want this. Hassan Al-Amer already detailed why. Being able to use alt looking to look behind without showing you are looking enables interesting mind games and tactics.

I want this. It can be really hard to catch cheaters on my server when I can’t tell whether they were alt-looking.

Garbage idea, let me have the satisfaction of killing someone by seeing them try to sneak up on me.

this has been completed, but unfortunately, it is not very visible (not even from up close)

the head turning is not going back enough
