Damn, too stupid to read. Voted "no", in reference to the thread title : "Forced first person" and forgot to read the question : "would you mind if..."

And i expect i'm not the only one. Just allow to change votes... else it sometimes looks like you try to change the result.

So you didn't read the thread and reactionary vote no.  Sorry but if your not even going to read the idea why vote?

Because the title is explicite enough to understand what you're suggesting ?
Or by saying "forced first person", what did you want to say other than Force First Person for all playes ?

Or maybe the answer is simply that you are a lazy bitch?

[Dalfador]

no

[Baggy]

maybe

I like the intention of spicing things up, but I think the suggestion just fails at the fact that the game is almost unplayable in 1st person mode.

You don't have a feeling for your weapon reach, nor can you see if your sideswing will wound a teammate. Compared to 3rd person 1st person feel like tunnel vision, you field of view is mssively reduced and thus you are less aware of your surroundings. The last point is not that bad in itself, but after being used to play in 3rd person for years it just feels like "crippling" the game for no real reason. Sure, it's some kind of "lol"-thing, like those flying carpets and magic wands, but it's only suitable for certain occasions, where everyone expects it.

But on a public server where 80-90% of all people connect in expectation of a serious game, the "lol half of our losses were inflicted by teammates"-thing won't be taken as fun by most users.

That's why your suggestion is declined.

First person is good for archery but i cant see block way on fp.

Ever died in first person? The deathspin makes me feel like throwing up.

Haha I love that! Amazing when falling of a wall!

Ever died in real life? It's like that

Had to.

Actually, I think I can judge the reach of my weapon better in first person. But the fact about the tunnel vision is true. I don't think this is a problem, though, when it's like this for everyone. You just have to be more careful with side swings, that's all.

That's why I use first person when stabbing/couching with my heavy lance on horse.  I can judge the tip of the lance a lot easier than in third person (but you lose a lot of awareness unless you keep your head on a swivel).

I 100% support this, but it will never happen and all it does is force 3rd person play which piles upon the existing flaws that makes this game very unrealistic.

Thats why im only playing mount and blade while I wait for chivalry 2

In Native some time ago one of my clanmates played in first person, he was really good player overall but also epic teamkiller. First person view is awfull for battle/siege pretty, it might work for duels I even tried it ages ago but I always had a feeling that camera bahaves wierd, probably needs some time to adjust, but still no.
