Screenshots and camera angles

[radionotme]

I've just seen the screenshots on steam for the next mappack released tomorrow, and once again they're incredibly misleading as they're taken from several camera angles that are just not available in the actual game - its false advertising as there's no way you would ever see these screens in game.

I understand why the decision to lock the camera angle was taken (although I'd really love for there to be a way to unlock it), but given that this decision has held true for the original, the expansion and now the map packs, why mislead customers by posting what are effectively doctored screenshots?

They're just teaser pictures, they're not supposed to give the whole thing away, dunno what you're getting on about with it being misleading. If they just showed the zoomed out picture of the whole map (which they will release AFTER the map pack goes live, btw) it would just ruin the surprise, which is half the fun IMO, but sadly not for you I guess :S

There is a way to unlock the free camera.* It isn't very playable that way, but it is a cheat that is in the retail version that we use to take screenshots.
