The unforgettable cinematic camera angle of the
GTA series turned out that this feature was originally designed for trains. The former Rockstar developer Obbe Vermeij announced that in GTA 3, he made changes in camera angles to make train journey more interesting. This idea became one of the most popular features of the game by then adapting to vehicle driving.
The Birth of Cinematic Camera in
GTA 3
Home Obbe Vermeij, After we noticed that the train journey in GTA 3 is boring, he developed a cinematic mode by taking advantage of random camera angles around the train tracks to attract players’ interest. This method was preferred because it will quickly skip the train to the next stop. The developer team decided to try this camera angle on the tools and the resulting result was much more fun than expected.
When working on the train in gta3 I found riding push boring.
I consider the player jump to the next station but this would cause streaming issues.
Instead, I made the camera switch between random viewpoints near the track. This made the ride more interesting… pic.twitter.com/pcl0Kd5ewo
