A suggestion for survivor controls on console

I play Dead by Daylight on PS4 and by watching PC game play I've noticed that survivors on PC are able to quickly direct their view behind them by using the mouse, while still moving forward. The ability to do this is pretty important, as in a chase, survivors have to judge the distance between themselves and the killer as he follows and predict the killer's movements/actions in order to win chases. Doing this on console with the same ease is next to impossible, even with the highest sensitivity, so I believe it's best to add a key bind which allows survivors to view directly behind their survivor, regardless of the camera's initial position (personally, I think the R3 button on PS4, or pressing down on the right analog stick on Xbox would be the best option).
