    Default Camera view jerking around randomly

    Heya, I noticed this change as a bugfix: 'The camera has been adjusted such that mouse look will no longer occasionally turn your character 180 degrees and make you look up or down.'

    I've not noticed this on live, outside of rarely finding my character loaded into a quest facing backwards.

    However, I am getting constant camera jumps on Lamannia, which is actually behaving exactly as the bugfix claims: My camera randomly jumps left/right/up/down instantly. Just running around town I'm occasionally jerked to be facing the floor. I'm not noticing any pattern on when it occurs, it can happen if I'm moving or sitting still and just looking around. Is anyone else noticing this?

    I played around with this a little more and got some footage, I hope the quality is good enough:

    In this clip I'm just trying to run in a figure-eight pattern in the harbor. A couple of times my camera suddenly orients in the wrong direction, a couple other times my camera is suddenly on the floor looking upward.

    I've gotten a bit closer to being able to consistently reproduce this: It seems to happen more often when I'm trying to look or change direction really quickly(which happens a lot in combat). Even just standing still, if I quickly try to turn around and look behind my character, it'll occasionally 'snap' back to the original direction I was looking. If I had to guess, it seems like this 'bugfix' is trying to detect when the camera has moved erroneously, and reset it back to the original position, which is actually causing it to behave erratically.

    The little questing I've done on Lamannia has been very disorienting with this issue, I can't imagine what it will be like trying to play regularly if this makes it to live...

    Did something change in the latest preview? There is nothing in the release notes indicating that this "fix" was modified for preview 2.
