*REDACTED*
- Edit- Well, just realized that every Mechwarrior game I have played so far has had some form of 3pv......lol.
- After seeing the 3pv in action its not that bad at all. It seems to almost be a disadvantage in some cases.
and....FIRSTPOST!

At this very moment any last strand of trust I have for piggi dies.

You took the Founder's money and used it to life boat this roving train wreck with the absolute 100% in no unsure terms promise.

No 3PV

And here we are.

It seems troubling that it's just thrown into the regular game mode as a toggle.

But I will do as I promised, and hold my tongue until testing, and try to be constructive in my criticism.

See sig. If you think 3rd person was promised to never be in the game you're delusional.

Seriously why are you still pushing 3PV down the communities throat?

Your emotional outbursts betray you. You're making up promises out of no where.

Because the game has a low population because PGI is incredibly bad at meeting deadlines and adding new content. So the first batch of people who loved the idea of the game left in droves and they are having trouble keeping numbers up.

So they are introducing 3PV to rope in the mouth breathers who can't play this game in first person without running into the walls and asking how to throw grenades.

3PV is part of MechWarrior for a long time.
Will see what will be MWO's implementation look like.

Exactly. I already know I'll have no desire to play it much, but expanding the potential market is only a good thing as it won't force me to use it.

So expanding the market while completely obliterating a core pillar of the game's design. While lying to the fan who have been feeding them money for a year for a beta that still missing half of the promised content and features is a good thing?

I see your point. There is nothing else they should be focusing on when they could be ******* in the face of the people who kept them alive when any other game and franchise would have gone under. If not for the BT fan's money.

I don't see myself using it, but I'm curious to test it.

Honestly, if you are an opponent of 3PV you SHOULD test it out and give feedback.

Its not going to be forced, you can play either way. Hope that it does not give advantage is all I ask. if you look at the feedback questions that what they are asking so the more who test and say yes it does it might get shelved till they can implement it with out a advantage.

Not interested, dont care and I am not bothered to test something with the 'potential' to ruin this game.

Welp just tried it.

The death of the simulator game is complete. There is massive massive field of vision increase. Aside from the loss of the minimap. You have all relevant information and cursor to aim with.

RIP 1PV

So, is 3pv mode still going to be a separate game mode, or are we going to be forced to use it unless we want to be at a disadvantage? Can anyone post screenshots of this travesty?

If you think it's actually better in the current form then I question how much you've played the game before this.
