player 2 camera

ricksnun75

Is there a way to make a multiplayer game where each player sees has an independent camera? Let's say for example: I want to make a poker game and I want each player to have its own camera so the others can't see eachothers game.

    I'm 99% sure this is impossible to do right now, and I doubt it will ever be possible for split-screen. This is probably because 2 screens mean 2x vision to render?

    I think they are going to add online multiplayer some time in which players see a different sight, but I haven't actually heard about this explicitly, it seemed alluded to in one of the streams though.

    Are you talking about local or online multiplayer?

    I'd imagine this would be possible when online multiplayer arrives, but for local play, I don't see how split screen poker could work, unless you REALLY trust your friends not to peek. I would, if I'm being honest. :D haha

    cgCody is correct that separate cameras for players will almost certainly be possible when online multiplayer is added.

    But one thing that they need to do that they never did in Little Big Planet is to decouple the choice of shared versus separate cameras from the choice of cooperative versus competitive gameplay.
