As said, first person view feels limited and trapped. Especially if I'm in the middle of nowhere in the game, I have to "escape" that opressive limitedness. Sorry, if I cant describe it better, but that's how broken 1st person view for me is. It also has it's roleplayelements. I want to see my character doing survival stuff. And I don't know where my ingame body exactly is. Can't tell if the feed are in or outside that bush.

When 1st person is fixed so that it looks equally appealing and if it no longer does feel clunky, more people will join 1st person server by free will. Simple. Oh and if 1st person is fixed and the Ocolus Rift is out, then you'll finally get your happy end, I hope.

Absolutely. That thing not only works in one direction. Maybe they now are upset because they can't longer loot on 3rd person server?

Yeah, and more ways to hoard items. I'm for separated hives for each difficulty. So you try to remove that other difficulties... Are you aware that as a result, the only remaining difficulty might be eased down a lot?

Sigh, now it starts all over again.

Nope, it's like we have already two movies but that one movie is so unpopular that it tries to ban the other. And please, if you would be so kind: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/157661-third-person-view-removal-from-sa-discussion/?p=1633609

I appreciate that you apparently came to the conclusion that forcing someone against their will is not going to work well, especially if you are in the minority. One thing I hope you are explaining me is, what's so important in uniteing the hives? As far as I understood, forced first person view is part of the difficulty concept the game has. Why would it be helpfull to unite the hives? Wouldn't it encourage farming on easier difficulties? Wouldn't it help your highest-ace-difficulty to seperate the hives? We already had the situation in the mod that "hardcore player" in fact were playing on veteran server (3rd person enabled). --> Looting on lower difficulties --> basebuilding on higher difficulty ==> saver loot Why should they get away with it?

Supposely they design it a bit like it was in the mod. And maybe to add to your suggestion, it would be cool if the player is able to sleep in beds of the interiors. This would give interiors more purpose ans they would feel more useful besides of loot locations. Making it more like a hideout. One could house in an flat somewhere away, maybe sleeping and a bit cooking there. Don't lough, such things enhance immersion.

Dont change it or you'll break the whole simulation approach. There are/will be plenty server with different times out there to chose from.

I think something like useful resting is eventually going to be implemented. One probably needs a tent for. Then it may provide a well rested charakter for a certain amount of time. I doupt that it is going to be real time as it would be a rather boring game play element. Besides of that, nice idea.

Maybe they did, sure I'd find a post of yours if I wanted to. But this isn't the point: Whatever you think you are, if you prefere a certain view, go play it. Instead hanging around 3rd person server the whole day doesn't make you ... whatever. Get it through?But: If you prefere 1st person only, you absolutely should play it. Because playing on 3rd person server makes you dissatisfied. And subsequently you complain.

Night time is different from daytime and I love it. I don't see it as problem that not everyone likes it too. I also don't have a problem with other folks prefering daytime. It makes it very realistic, that the server is not crowded with the usual DayZ population at night. It's nice and awesome the way it is. Please don't try to force the community to play at every time. And for the love of god don't speed up the time, like having 4 days in one. This is something that also makes Dayz so outstanding, that they really use real time.

45% usually are spent for hookers, 20% in alcohol, the rest doesn't naturaly transist into gameplay.

Once the Oculus Rift is released there will be much more folks playing on 1st person server, provided it is being supported and the game is looking fancy. The meantime being you should try to practice what you preach, tommes. Yeah, alone is a bit odd, but give it a vent. Can't be that hard. Where are your fellas then you need them?

Well dude, I already tested it an can honestly say that being limited to first person only, I dont like that too much. For various reasons, that already has been said, again and again and again ... plus, I really like 3rd person view. :-)And clearly you guys were claiming to be hardcore, I can show you dozens of posts that say "3rd person = easymode, 1st person = hardcore". This also already has been discussed to an extend before that other thread was closed. There really is nothing new. Everything goes in eternal cycles on that matter. --- To that realism discussion regarding the zoom, did you know how close I have to be to my 24" monitor in order to not to see the frame? I didn't. Did you know that I sit round about 1.5 metres away from it? Even if I use a 50" TV, I'm not only sitting 50 cm afar from it, nope, maybe two metres. I think you are probably sitting on you PC or maybe 40 cm away? So I'm certain, I'm doing it wrong, right? So now, I know there are some fighter, maybe sitting "in" DayZ, surroundet by 12 monitors. And then there comes one and zooms, bloody hell, this is unfair!!!111^^ But something can be done, like limiting fov and setting the zoom accordingly. Overall, I'm not a big fan of removing game features.

That user id is the guid you are referring to? There only is one character associated with a guid in one hive in the moment.Might have misread something.

Because it used to be like this in the mod. Dozen topics which say 1st person is the shiz, dozen polls which said more than a half want to play on first person only, massive complaining about 3rd person...And whenever I joined a 1st person server, I was alone. There were a few, but empty. I really hope this is not going to happen to the SA yet again. I don't want to sound like a broken record, but if you 1st person advocates are not playing on that 1st person servers, who else?Being brute to yourself wont help ya much. Promise to stopp that before we fall in love.

How would you tell whether that second character is just another legit character or not. There also are multiple user using one computer having their own Steam accounts.

This made me dig out "my thread" of that kind. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/133374-more-realism-and-player-stats-suggestions/ May it add to it.

I may consider that, if you tell me the greatest secret of them all: Why don't you just consequently play on 1st person locked server if you like it so much? I don't recall that you already answered the question.Thy are there, if you folks stay there, they stay full. Would that be too easy?

Hmm, in order to get released on consoles, it may have to get out of beta in the very first place. Sinca the alpha status wont drop that fast, I wouldnt hold my breath.

How would you feel if someone constantly asks you, where your argument is? As you are following this discussion one may guess that you must have read hundrets.But apparently you overlooked every single one. I know, this isn't the case. Do you want us to annoy the hell out of that forums by constantly asking "Where is your Argument?"? Sneaky tactis but easy to get aware of. As to you argument, 3rd person would be easy mode, I just say: why do you care? Are you not supposed to play on 1st person mercenary server? If you consider yourself an elitist, then please play on an elitist server or stopp caling yourself elitist. I also dont claim to be superpro while setting my difficult setting in games on low. Why are you not doing what you preach?

Take another.http://youtu.be/5tuNvLjo1ko edit ninjad

I'm not very deep into this but I figure this would do nothing remarkable to the sound, but it probably would influence the balistcs.
