I want to know if there is a 3rd person view.

Eliminator · 26-05-2006, 02:20 AM

From what iv'e seen there is only 1st person.

Naughty · 26-05-2006, 04:25 AM

That was a gameplay video that was shown in third person, it may only be like that though when your in towns and then you'll have be in first person once you enter the battle grounds, it is an FPS. Then again they will have to put in some type of third person that way you can see how sexy you look with all your new armor and weapons.

Haloplayer · 26-05-2006, 04:26 AM

There was a video somewhere that showed a guy walking around town in 3rd person.

it may be like PS where you can switch between the two, but there may be no crosshairs in 3rd person, it would proboly be more for driving and walking around while out of combat. There is also a problem with 3rd person, people use it to see around corners without exposing themselfs. Its pretty cheap, when I played PS there was even a guy named 3rdpersonviewisanexploit

Yeah that would be stupid. I just want to see how my character looks.

ArmorKing · 26-05-2006, 07:44 PM

I couldnt see why it wouldnt have 3rd person to it... some people can only do games like that. Personally though im a FPS all the way.

Murvel · 26-05-2006, 11:36 PM

I'm a pure FPS-player myself but I wouldn't have a problem with people having the ability to switch to 3rd person view in the cities, where there's no fighting going on. In that way the hardcore MMORPG players would feel right at home and it wouldn't affect gameplay in a bad way such as the 3rd-person wall exploit.

Felix12g · 26-05-2006, 11:47 PM

Yeah, nothing like playing a First Person Shooter in 3rd person. [/sarcasm]

ArmorKing · 27-05-2006, 12:21 AM

Well the 3rd person way you get to view how your charactor moves and responds which is kinda nice... yes being in a city 3rd person would be nice to have when just chatting with friends and shopping for bigger explosives

Eliminator · 27-05-2006, 02:28 AM

Yeah, maybe just in the city. I found a screen of someone in 3rd person yesterday.

Fendori · 28-05-2006, 09:25 AM

You were probably watching the people in specatare mode cause you usualy see them in 3rd person view

Zorak-Mantis · 03-06-2006, 06:44 PM

It would not be an FPS game if it had third person. >.>

dnL · 04-06-2006, 05:19 AM

I'm pretty sure if you wanted to see how your character moves, what you look like, etc., you can just find someone that looks like yourself, and follow them around for a while.

Probably a feature that Webzen wouldn't want to add for a FIRST-PERSON SHOOTER game. Spectator: Fine, Player: No.

Disagree. I read somewhere that in towns it will be 3rd person, which is great. Yes, 3rd person gives you an advantage in combat, but I'd much rather have 3rd person in towns so I could find the damn shopkeepers. Also, I wouldn't get a crazy headache when chilling long hours in towns with friends. But 3rd person in combat? Completely not fair, and shouldn't be done. I play 3rd person when available because it IS much better, you can see a lot more, however, I don't enjoy it as much (seems way less intense).

dnL · 04-06-2006, 06:19 PM

I imagine Huxley being big, open fields. Not small combat maps like say, Counter-Strike or something, where 3rd person would provide a much larger advantage.

connnnn · 04-06-2006, 08:56 PM

Well so far the only environment we've really seen was rather urban.

I'm sure they'll have a wide variety of styles in their combat areas though... it would be pretty repetitive if they didn't.

Assasin1015 · 10-06-2006, 08:54 PM

It might be like how you can zoom in and out with the mouse wheel to go in and out third person and first person.

Exilimus · 10-06-2006, 09:12 PM

It's just my opinion, but maybe when you're equipting your armor, weapons, etc you can view your character in the 3rd person, if only to see how you look in the clothes...but that's the only kind of 3P I'd allow...I just don't like the 3rd person at all...
