Mate told me to try the inside/speedo view (1st person) where you can see the dials and i've never looked back.
Bonnet view for me. I can't really control the car properly in any other view for some reason.
people spank themselves off over how great the latest car game looks, "OMG no jaggies on the cars window pillars" then race in car.
I like to see the cars that these developers have spent months designing.
Always cockpit if it's available, if that's not available then bonnet cam, and if that's not available then I use bumper cam.
I cannot stand any kind of chase cam, I hate even watching people use chase cam.
That's what replays are for.
Follow, so that I can see other cars around me. I find it impossible to not crash into people when I can't see things around me from the cockpit.
First person cam, depends on the game though, some have it too low so I use bonnet cam for a better view.
