Zenless Zone Zero Brings Holiday Cheer to Fans by Resolving Camera Angle Bug

With the arrival of Version 1.4 for Zenless Zone Zero, players were greeted with a slew of major updates and minor tweaks, eagerly anticipated by a community ready for fresh content. However, some of these changes have stirred quite a reaction, mainly due to a tweak that restricted certain camera angles that previously allowed players to capture up-close shots of their avatars.

Fans quickly took to platforms like social media and Reddit to voice their discontent. Many players worldwide, upset by the inability to get these coveted close-ups, made their displeasure known. It seems this shared frustration has brought together Zenless Zone Zero enthusiasts of all backgrounds.

A few in the community went as far as suggesting that this restriction might be a form of censorship. Not surprisingly, Reddit filled up with posts on how to lodge complaints on app stores about this unexpected change. Others shared tips and tricks for capturing those elusive shots without resorting to mods. The uproar was quite the spectacle.

The developers explained that the change aimed to address issues of character models clipping through environments. Most of the characters generally fit within the game’s virtual settings, but larger characters like Ben presented some challenges. What was intended as a technical fix ended up causing a bit of a stir.

Earlier in the day, HoYoverse responded by acknowledging the bugs and assured the community that fixes were forthcoming. They mentioned that the adjustment, intended to solve the clipping issue, had a bug affecting the visual fade effect, which wasn’t displaying correctly under certain conditions.

This reassurance from the developers was met with relief and joy among fans, drawing playful comparisons to a celebratory moment akin to Star Wars Episode 3. Enthusiasts were thrilled to resume their favorite activities, such as checking out character details and indulging in in-game gambles, without worrying about being monitored.

While the camera controls haven’t fully reverted to their original state, they seem to have struck a balance between the desires of keen fans and the quality improvements intended by the developers. On top of this, players are receiving some in-game currency as a peace offering from the devs. With these gestures, harmony has been restored in the Zenless Zone Zero universe.
