DeadlyAztec11 Ostrakon Agency 5572	Posted - 2014.10.27 01:59:00 - [1] - Quote I sight the following as my evidence for Dust having 3rd person as an option. Gears of War Modern Warfare 2 Star Wars: Battlefront (skip to 0:52) Uncharted 3 Max Payne 3 Ghost Recon: Future Soldier (Take note of cloaking mechanics as well) I believe the evidence speaks for itself. Put your flags up in the sky. And wave them side to side. Show the world where you're from. Show the world we are one.

The limited 1st person perspective of this game is part of what generates a connection to your character. I am my merc and all that. By making it a 3rd person game not only to you create a situation where players have unnaturally large field of vision but you also disassociate the player from their character. This would be awful in the sense that I would loose the connection that makes every action I take so visceral and meaningful. I for one am truly opposed to 3rd person views becoming a part of this game. It looks like there are plenty of other games which include 3rd person elements. Why aren't you playing those if you like the experience so much? Now with more evil.
Vicious Minotaur 1268	Posted - 2014.10.27 05:17:00 - [6] - Quote I have always preferred First-Person action over that of Third-Person. The second DUST gets Third-Person (with regards to infantry) is the second I am done with DUST. Third-Person would make my preferred POV irrevocably irrelevant. The two cannot coexist in a competitive/tactical PVP game. Those who use First-Person would always be at a disadvantage. I am a minotaur.

Black Squggulle Eternal Beings Dark Taboo 23	Posted - 2014.10.27 10:38:00 - [10] - Quote How about Remote explosives while hacking objectives..and if dust will be 3rd person...it would be likely unfair for shotgun and knives user as some guys said As a man sow, shall he reap. and I know that talk is cheap. But the heat of the battle is as sweet as the victory.

Only in occasion it does. People that can't achieve greatness without exploitation don't deserve to exist. Enroll in scout erradication today.

Both 3rd person and first person are available but 1st person is obsolete and uselees because 3rd person lets u see things around the corner, aim better, more awareness, etc. This wil kill dust if introduced especially cuz CCP will now have another headache they have to handle (balancing the 2 views). I can only please one person per day. Today is not ur day, tomorrow doesn't look too bright either. Turkey sammich>taco

What if a high amount of "momentum sway" was added in third person. Kind of like in Gears of War where your camera zooms in and rocks back and forth while travelling. You have this sway only in third person, but not in first person. Sounds more than fair. Put your flags up in the sky. And wave them side to side. Show the world where you're from.

Fizzer XCIV Company of Marcher Lords Amarr Empire 664	Posted - 2014.10.28 01:55:00 - [18] - Quote I'm going to have to disagree with you Aztec. No TPS. I've never played a game that has both 1st and 3rd person where the third person players don't have an inherent advantage. It throws a wrench into balance. GÇó3rd person allows the player to look over/around cover without exposing themselves. GÇó3rd person allows the player to see behind them and in front of them at the same time. A very strong awareness advantage. GÇó3rd person allows better "aiming down sights". Removing the actual ironsights from the screen allows for better target acquisition and tracking. Swag-suit4lyfe!

Removing the actual ironsights from the screen allows for better target acquisition and tracking. Ironic given that people use to complain back when Dust had no iron sights. Regardless, you fail to remember that people in first person tend to have an inherent ability to track targets better when in ADS because both sides of the screen are widely open, while 3rd person inherently has less zoom and obscures part of your view because of the body of your character model. 3rd and 1st person could be balanced, but people are simply looking at small problems instead of seeing solutions.

You cannot balance around it in any way that makes any sense. I don't meant to sound like a ****, but if you want to play a TPS, go somewhere else. Swag-suit4lyfe!

I don't recall explicitly stating that Battlefront wasn't at all tactical. But technicalities and irrelevant labels aside: No matter how you slice it, DUST is currently an FPS, which as you know, stands for First-Person Shooter. The POV is directly tied to the genre that this game is in. Allow for Third-Person, and the game is changed fundamentally. It ceases to be an FPS. Changing DUST fundamentally this late into the game with the amount of resources available is nothing short of foolhardy. If you want third person in an EVE infantry shooter, go over to LEGION GD and try to get those mute and secretive devs to tackle the fundamental balance problems associated with FP/TP. They have the manpower and maybe the resources to do it, and the game is not even in Alpha; changes are much easier for a game the earlier it is in development. I am a minotaur.

You can route your visor to a small, deployable Drone that follows you around behind your shoulder(s). You can deploy a (rechargeable?) Nano-Drone (indestructible) that will let you view in 3rd person for a short period of time. One feature I really like from Ghost Recon: Phantoms is moving in 3rd person, but ADS in first person. This might be cool along with the Drone-camera integration. daddy Rattati lovin' his stati's!

Or we could make it to where when you are an infantry, you only have 1st person. To go back momentarily to your first post you mention some games: - Gears of War - Star Wars: Battlefront - Uncharted - Max Payne 3 - Ghost Recon: Future Soldier All of these games are third-person shooters and have no ability to transfer to first person. You are comparing TPS to a FPS, and is a bad analogy as well as a bad comparison. The ONLY exception is Modern Warfare 2 which had a separate lobby for this and wasn't populated at all (the most I ever saw was 100 players). This idea would be ultimately scrapped in future games and Call of Duty continues to be a FPS. Successor games would be purely FPS with no TPS gameplay. Dust has a TPV with vehicles and that's really all it needs. (There are some earlier in the thread that argue against that, but that's another argument for a different thread.)

Gears of War Modern Warfare 2 Star Wars: Battlefront (skip to 0:52) Uncharted 3 Max Payne 3 Ghost Recon: Future Soldier (Take note of cloaking mechanics as well) I believe the evidence speaks for itself. If anyone believes that 3rd person is inherently unfair, than the following could be put in place as a token of balance: DeadlyAztec11 wrote: What if a high amount of "momentum sway" was added in third person. Kind of like in Gears of War where your camera zooms in and rocks back and forth while travelling. You have this sway only in third person, but not in first person. Sounds more than fair. I would like to just say how much I would like this, but it would be unfair to those in first person. Let's just drop this Aztec, at least until there is 'private match' in the game. The World isn't ready for 3rd person. Just like they weren't ready for white jeans Dust may never be ready for those Creative with guns

Third-person view option. +1 MGO2 was third person with a first-person ADS option and that game was fantastic. Will it allow better corner camping and stealth tactical gameplay? Yep. Does having a wider peripheral vision allow for better combating of corner camping and stealth tactical gameplay? Yep. Besides, wtf is the point in having a fancy suit if I only get to see it in the mq? Nerf scouts. From every perspective. Open-Beta Vet. Drunk Night Tree Burner. This is my Main and Original. DUST514 is WARFARE, not WAR-FAIR.

MGO2 i played alot and that was 3rd person but it helped that the game was made around the 3rd person and also every game was 3rd person to begin with 3. DUST is an FPS, 3rd person generally offers nothing apart from vehicles 3a. If you mention about vehicles having 3rd person then the battlefield game also has 3rd person for vehicles as does planetside

This may save the idea! Let it be known that this is my ONLY condition and it is non-negotiable. This also fits in with the Eve Online lore where capsuleers have camera drones to see their ships. The difference here is that camera drones in Dust are destructible. On Twitter: @HilmarVeigar #greenlightlegion #dust514 players are waiting.

You can swap between first and third person with no fov advantage at all, you just see your avatar. Trust me it has and can be done so their is no fov advantage. From a dev point of view, I know its not hard at all to implement as it just requires POV tweaks. Try not to think literally of third person but more over the shoulder, it has and can be done. Big up my friend Charlotte Shields, she won the Brazilian ju jitsu competition!. And she's recovering from cancer!.

Only so long as it's from the point of view of a drone I can shoot at. On Twitter: @HilmarVeigar #greenlightlegion #dust514 players are waiting.
