Played third person, it's a bit hard to use, didn't care for it, went to first person, killed mechs.

Everyone should do that and stop the QQ!

Why not a system where if you choose third person you are stuck third person for the entire match. Visa Versa

That is still problematic if in a mixed queue, but at least more difficult to exploit. If you have the right build though you can still run right to your ridge camping spot and 3PV snipe over the hill. It would eliminate a lot of the exploiters, but not the most dedicated ones.

Easy to understand wy there is still no 1th person only option. If the option was already there ppl would chose that option and there will be no further feedback on the 3th person view. Understandable.

Now PGI have no feedback at all. Only anger.
And by the way, they could just asked us to test 3PV. Slight C-bils or/and XP bonus. No?

[Grey Black]

I have attempted to use 3pv multiple times and, while I do not personally enjoy using it, I recognize the tactical advantage it can provide, especially given the ability to switch back and forth between 1pv and 3pv. We should implement a force lock on your vision mode or implement it as a "baby's first" module, perhaps as an unlock after completing the tutorial (which will be coming when?) to teach how modules work.

The amount of QQing in this community is incredible!

Did you even try 3rd person view at all? All you QQ-guys, you should try it.

It's so simple to try. Why wouldn't I have? And I bet that's true for the others, too. It's really not that hard so I'm actually not sure were your idea is based on. Just so you know: While QQ can be quite annoying, there is usually a real or personal issue...a reason for the QQ. QQing about QQing on the other hand is just rediculous imho.

I would really love to play in 3rd person view. As it is now even I would prefer to play in 1st person. And i guess most others will too. So why do you worry? Everyone is gonna go back to 1st person and all your QQ just not needed...

So please... for gods sake stop the tears... ppl from other games who accidently get into this forum will think you are all kids whos toys have been stolen!

It is embrassing! Get over it! Take it like a man not like a child!

Here is what you're missing. The whole point is that it's NOT a viable view other than to provide a cheap means of peeking around corners and over hills. It provides all the negatives of having mixed 3PV/1PV environment with none of the benefits.

Even more to the point it's not so much about 3PV. Game balance... well, that's its own drama. It's about lying.

Saying to 'man up'..... it's a product. If I sell you something and then change the product after you've paid for it that's not a 'man up' situation. It's lying. There's a pretty significant difference.

LOL... nice aimbot PGI... nuff said.

[zorak ramone]

Here's my patch feedback:

I might play a few games to see what its like, but after that I'm done playing minimally untill separate queues are introduced. Even then I'm not sure if I'll stick around.

If separate queues aren't introduced, then I'm done for good and will be asking for a refund of all my MCs on the basis of fraud.

Seriously PGI. Adding 3rd person was a dumbass move to begin with ... but then to introduce it without separate queues. Astounding. Just scrap 3rd person before its too late.

[Shiro Matsumoto]

The 1Pv only modes are not choosable, pls Fix.

[DogTagDamo]

Thinking back am sure this game was promoted as a thinking man's FPS so no i do not like third person what a waist of your time and when ya going to put it back to a good game and stop dumbing it down and bring back collisions

Yes, it is, and the fact that I disagree with you means that others do too. You have no proof of your stance, no more than I do of mine, though at least I can point to the 'Beta' tag to justify my beliefs with some modicum of official-ity.

Many other games were even 'further along' than this in Beta, with equally large rants (for miles) about how the game was basically live already, etc. etc.

dude ive been around just as long as you have if not longer and your full of **** they said at the begining of the design of the game at no time would there be a 3pv mode and it was going to be locked in 1pv so before you start saying oh theyer doing the right thing look at theyer lies and think about all the money people would NOT have spent on this game if we all knew how big a ******* scam the game is or the fact that the designers are blatant liars


THIS IS A ALL CALL BOYCOTT not a dime should be spent untill they provide us with what they promised us

I agree, back to MWLL!

[Solomon Ward]

You promised no 3rd Person View.

You decided to implement 3rd Person View nevertheless.

That was fine to me as you promised there would be seperate queues and i would not be forced to play with it.

Now "Hardcore" is greyed out and you artificially want to force me to give it a try.

Not with me.

People have a right to be concerned/complain. What you seem to not understand is a lot of the people have played it and do not like it for a number of reasons. Perhaps instead of QQing about the QQing you should take your own advice and try looking at the bigger picture and understand where the complaints are coming from, or you can continue to jump to the conclusion that everyone is jumping to a conclusion about something they don't like.

[Khobai]

Im fine with 3PV being in the game, but I thought it was going to be option? Why are we being forced to use it?

It basically gives your mech an invisible periscope that can see over hills and around corners.

[MoonUnitBeta]

Can anyone comment whether the reticle snapping is gone or not? That was my biggest gripe about 3PV, and also camera fluidity.

I’m tired of sifting through pages of “can’t trust PGI” and “where’s my hardcore queue?”

[Ponyboy]

3PV is just ruining the game for me, because the lack of immersion. Please include a forced first person view play-mode to keep the core player interested and let the consoleros/ casual gamers have their 3rd person arcade version.

No, it's not invisible you have a nice drone where the camera is that has a nice bright red light blinking on the top of it. You peek over the hill and your drone is a giant “I AM RIGHT HERE” sign. If you can see a drone, then someone has seen you, but you also have seen them. If you’re a skilled player, then this is to your advantage.

[Xie Belvoule]

Ah the delicious, delicious schadenfreude. I told you all it was coming, the merging of the queues, but no one listened.

#1 Not going to tell you about 3rd player view other than I will never play it.

#2 You just lost me if not for good until such time it comes out.

#3 You just lost my phoenix account (the game was not as you described - separate queues).

Having spent over $300+ Phoenix Order you would think this was a very stupid mistake on your part, but I guess it was a mistake on mine.
