So I recorded this clip a few months or so ago when I was running the King's Fall raid on normal mode to help some people get through it. Everything went smoothly until about halfway through the Oryx fight. Right after we killed the Shade, I randomly got thrown into one of the pillars when we got teleported out of the Shade realm. This caused my camera to get stuck very far away from the action. As a result, I got to see Destiny from a real-time strategy game perspective. I thought it was silly so I'd like to share it with anyone who is curious to see it. I never really post links, so I hope I did this correctly. If anyone else has any clips with interesting camera angles, feel free to share them here if you wish.
Edit: I am sorry for the quick camera rotations. When the camera is stuck like this, very slight movements of the analog stick cause it to move around like that. In addition, I was trying to "unstick" the camera.
Edit2: People here have mentioned that you can get this camera angle when you die and spectate the relic holder. I guess I didn't notice because I rarely die on the oryx fight unless we're wiping or I have something silly happen like how I got thrown into this platform. Also, for clarification, I am referring to the death as being glitchy. You can even see my ghost next to the platform that I was thrown into.

Here's a weird glitch I encountered in the raid once. Somehow we got separated into two fireteams, but no one got kicked from the raid. So we proceeded to kill Oryx as two separate fireteams working together. It was very bizarre seeing blue dots and names instead of all green. Fortunately we were in a PS chat so we could all communicate.

That's pretty cool! To see Destiny like that makes you realize just how small we are compared to the area and enemies.
-
That FOV though
-
Hate to break it to everyone, but this actually always happens when you spectate someone who has sealed the brand, namely the aura holder. It's pretty epic, but only works while spectating the guy that has the invincibility bubble.
-
It's not a glitch.
-
Neatooooo
-
I've seen this before too.
-
It's just the guy holding the brand
-
Pretty cool view.
-
I like pie!
-
This view happened to me on reset day, I was gonna record it and tell my friends, but they were kinda focused lol
-
"Glitchy death" sureeee ;)
-
Wow this is nice. This view would be great for tutorials & stuff.
-
-
This should be a full on feature to be able to spectate matches and Raids to see how they are done. It would be a great thing for newbies.
-
That has happened to me so many times and I have no idea why
-
would be good to drop into games to have this rts view and see how raids are done
-
Why is this not a thing? The game looks amazingly epic from that angle...
-
Its not a glitch it happens when u spectate someone with aura
-
Happened to me. Watch the runner while he's running after you die
-
It's not a glitch. If everyone is in the aura and your dead, then you can look at it from that angle if you move the cam in the right place.
-
You can activate this view by dying and then you watch the runner... After he picks up the shield from the knight the camera zooms out and this happens.
-
You can make this happen. If you die for some reason, watch the runner and when he takes the aura it will put you in this view.
-
This only happens when you're spectating the person with the brand. Not a glitch.
-
That looks like Spartan Assault, except in the Destiny world, and would actually be fun.
-
Pretty awesome view actually
