Godfather 41 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 After thought, and Ethan's well-worded points/examples, I am going to +1 this due to my personal reasons on why I play MilitaryRP. Most of the time, I play R6 to get my realism fix in. I feel first person would give us all an opportunity to learn a new mechanic, actually holding angles, as stated by @Ethan. Semi-serious RP isn't really an excuse to have 3rd person. 3rd person is not an integral part of MRP because of the fact that there are real dangers for looking at tangos on the battlefield. A very useful feature to know that, I don't see anyone in that doorway; therefore, I know no one will know specifically where I'm entering there, unless they hear my footsteps, making grenades useful, however not integral. IE: Relying on a smoke (or multiple) to actually get on an objective, without being peeked for 0.5 seconds and getting shot because they have the optical advantage. This would also make angle holding more even because it's based on reactions. Obviously, someone watching a door way would have an advantage, but this would make the engagement more tactical, because having having the reaction time to turn to the enemy and killing them instead of the other way around could be a more likely outcome of an engagement. +1 1 Link to comment
.lua 234 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) I can understand the posting of this. I would rather keep third person but have it restricted in wars if that is possible. If not than -1, if so then +1 for that change. I personally enjoy playing the server in third person or any game in general. Edited September 5, 2018 by .lua Link to comment
Riskii 191 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 -1 3rd person has been really useful for me so i'd rather keep it. Link to comment
roxx 0 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 -1 I really like the third person and think its great for pvp and just a better view. Link to comment
The Garnut Nutter 15,211 Posted September 5, 2018 The Garnut Share Posted September 5, 2018 Coming back to this thread to bring up a valid point, even if we remove third person, there's thrid party addons that would still allow you to go in third person (yes, detectable by screengrab) but will be hard to moderate nonetheless.

Greasy Dan 175 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 +1 Having a third person mode kinda ruins the rp part of the server Link to comment
CodyDrax 135 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 This was already suggested recently and denied by garnet himself. Besides, even serious RP servers have third person. Your argument that it's failrp just comes off hyperbolic. 1 Link to comment

Scotti 96 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 +1 To be honest 3rd person is annoying af. It is a broken mechanic that has no place in a roleplay server. Link to comment
Arizona 169 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 -1 for now. GG doesn't use enough RP, and the only thing we really do is war, kidnap, tryouts, and wait. If the server took a shift and changed into a more RP centric server, I would instantly change to a +1, however my -1 stands Link to comment

I understand your frustration, but you can counter it easily by going around the other side, throwing a nade it, flanking through light jump, or capping from outside. There are very few situations where 3rd person is OP to the point of no counter, except for a one way room in TC, and even then you can just triple jump in Link to comment
