Lost Vikings Camera follow

Why do the Lost Vikings have this awful camera follow functionality, For some reason when you die with the vikings grouped using the 4 button, the camera defaults back to the dead one back at base. In trying to get the camera back to the other 2 vikings you are likely to lose them too as you simply can’t press the right buttons to get back to controlling them. If I have them together as a group, they should be able to be treated as that group and the living ones retain the camera follow. For no reason ever do I want to see the camera go to base. They didn’t used to behave this way before some rework way back, but for some reason they have had this behavior ever since, and its literally about the worst broken feature of any character in the game. They should work just like samuro when grouped. Clearly if they are not on the same screen when grouped you will have to join them before they stick together but wow, this just makes them unplayable as a group, which is the only way I want to play them, and they have talents to use the grouping like spin to win, and assault team.

disable camera lock (mouse and keyboard -> enable camera flow -> unckeck it)

if you do this the screen stops scrolling with your hero and this makes it more unbearable than the screen jumping to base when u die (and all u have to do is hit L during a game to disable camera lock)

for me it’s unbearable to play with camera follow on any hero cause it limits your map awareness way too much and messes up aim. I believe the vast majority of high level players play with free camera.
