So, yeah, just that.
I find it unfair that I can see better to the north and worse to the south.
Annoying usually, but downright unfair in Lockdown.
Besides, it'd be really easy to make.
Perhaps limit the camera angles so you could go above or below a certain angle.

actually,

NOT easy to make. actually, it would be hard to make.
Becuase...
Spiral Knight's maps are all "2D". Imagine a paper theater. http://ww4.hdnux.com/photos/01/34/24/378131/3/628x471.jpg
if you turned the map at an angle, (90degrees) you'll notice that most 3d models would be blank from the side/behind because there is no need for creating it.

pretty much, the map designs would radically change and it would make things look very different. abso there would be alot of obstructions that wouldnt be there.

EDIT if your suggesting slightly moving the angles, kinda like the zoom in Haven, im up for it but it can't be alot. and i guess ill just work North and South.

You could also adjust position instead. Something like moving the mouse to the edge of the screen and the camera tilts slighlty.

Lazy people...

2D? Really? Well, now that I think about it, it does seem like... Well, darn. Okay, carry on.
Won't pursue this further, thanks.
