This again.... If people can handle the learning curve of EVE, they can handle learning to pilot a 'Mech without 3rd person. It seriously isn't that complicated... Sorry to be so blunt but its true.
hell, i will be even more blunt. the thing that trips up these doodle headed players who cry and whine begging for 3rd PPOV is this: I turn my torso but my legs do not follow. I need a view outside to understand this. Uh... Hi, my name is Rejarial, and in 15 seconds, I will teach you all you need to know about this concept. Drive a car and merge into traffic. Notice something? Your head turns over your shoulder, but, notice how the car does NOT follow? Same thing. The car is your mech's legs, and your head, the torso. Not simple enough yet? Okay. You and your buddy are walking in the mall. Side by side. You both are talking. You are not crabbing through the mall are you? Ya know, walking with the entirety of your body facing your buddy? No? just your head? Hmm.... where else do we see this behavior? Oh right! MWO!! Torso = your head and your LEGS = the MECHS LEGS!!! Notice how you both continue the same path as you look at each other? Same in MWO, torso facing and leg facing are two diff things. Now, you know, and as the JOE's say: KNOWING IS HALF THE BATTLE! YO JOE!
