I got that gods eye view too which happened right after Saladin declared war on me so this was more than annoying since its difficult to see whats going on.
But it corrected itself after a little awhile, and before I lost any cities. Was punching all my controller buttons, bumpers, sticks, triggers so dont know if really did any good it could have just been self correcting.
But know what you mean - Hey! this is not helpful game. Also has only happened once in multiplayer.
