I can't see how 3rd person is helping this game..
infiltrator replied to infiltrator's topic in New Player Discussion
I tried HC servers as suggested and I like it a lot, I assumed hardcore had other things I did not enjoy like limited interface or less frequent loot spawns so I did not try it until now. The only problem is there aren't many HC servers to pick from but I guess that will change with time. -
How often do you die from glitches?

Thanks, but cut the attitude if its not warranted. -
Game really hard on high-pop servers
infiltrator replied to infiltrator's topic in New Player Discussion
Why is that? Because of bandits? Typically they are very easy to deal with from my experience, and often use the most idiotic bluffs. "friendly friendly" while charging me with an axe.. alright, better let my guard down since he just said he's friendly. -

Well I am not aware of any restarting mechanic, I made this in the new player section because I'm precisely that.. -
Am I the only one experiencing this or zombies are atm at a very low level of existence? They ignore collision, behave weird when you climb ladders (unable to ascend any kind of ladder themselves), and sometimes differ wildly in perception (seeing you from 500 meters, or not noticing you until you shove an axe in their skull)? And they are quite scarce to be honest, I never would consider them a threat as they go down in 1 axe swing..

Why is there a "pristine rotten orange"? Is it still stupid to eat it? IMO, pristine/worn/damaged etc. should NOT work for food or drinks (how can you say an orange is "worn".. c'mon). Food, including sardines should be "edible" or "spoiled" or use similar terms.

Question about food and durability?
infiltrator replied to infiltrator's topic in New Player Discussion
It's not just semantics. There should never be a rotten kiwi in perfect condition, regardless how you wanna call it. -
Well I definitely prefer the m4 for the 'oh shit' situations. But the mosin has to be better at keeping stuff from enemies in good condition right? Since after I looted a guy who was met with 20 m4 bullets, everything on him was ruined.
-
I had a guy shot 3 times with the magnum to the chest and he didn't drop, shot me once from a mosin and I died, CQB. I think I'll stick to the FX for now when it comes to pistol preference, at least it has 15 bullets and a good fire rate.. Though, I dont see how mosin couldnt be useful in a lot of situations. Say you see the guy at the exact same time from something like 200 meters. The mosin will always win, right, provided both of you are good shots.

I have the box, and I don't know how to use it properly. I typically have to put it on the ground first in order to see its content. Is this the proper way or can I do it while its in my backpack?
-
Ah thanks for that, I just put it on the left panel (ground). Thats really odd, why not the entire thing from your hands?

Hey, I have a strong rig and I'm not pushing the game to the limits, getting very good FPS.. it's definitely not that, when I get into a house it's just annoying to navigate it as if my guy had the inertia of a 2 ton elephant.
-
Even though you are hiding behind a wall of illiteracy, the points you are trying to fling across are still invalid, and before you ask, english is the 3rd language I've learned. Once again. Animation does NOT affect character movement, and is by NO means something that is done first.. a solid foundation for any FPS is first and foremost responsive controls. Everything else comes after. Mastering how to drive a human-sized truck inside a house should not be something people should master, that's just ridiculous.
-
I am not sure you understand what we're talking about here. This has nothing, whatsoever to do with "animation". We're talking about controls not reacting properly to player input - be it mouse or keyboard, and this is extremely obvious indoors. Like I've said, I've played OP:FP and all armas, never had this problem (then again, never played dayz mod).

I never played the original, why is there 3rd person?
infiltrator posted a topic in General Discussion
Hello. I'm on the fence regarding this game, but one thing that keeps bugging me is the 3rd person view. I was looking at how other people play on their streams and it's so damn annoying watching everyone peak around corners with zero risk, or looking through windows without exposing yourself.. I heard there are servers which have this disabled, but I also heard they are extremely unpopulated. So my question is, is something going to be done or the game is meant to be exploited this way? Thanks -

infiltrator replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
I have read some of those. I dont think that "join a 1st person view server" is the solution. What if my friends don't want that, what if some want and some don't? This is a segregation of the playerbase, it should be unified, not split. The thing is, everyone who likes 3rd person arguments their reasons to "I like it", while ignoring the facts that it's completely unfair to just look at people without fear of being spotted yourself. -
I don't see how anyone can defend 3rd person view other than "I like it". It kills atmosphere, it kills risk vs reward. When the gameplay revolves around you checking every corner 100% safely and watching people without exposing yourself you know it's deep in the trench. I'm not getting the game until the issue is fixed.. and no.. a segregation of the community by dividing them between server settings is NOT the solution.

infiltrator replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
I'm trying to wrap my head around this and it doesn't really make sense.. for a game that tries to be authentic and atmospheric.. 3rd person is something that completely kills that aspect. I mean how engaging is to look without risk around corners or through windows? -

infiltrator replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
I still have to get the game, and I said that I am aware such option exists but people have told me no one uses it in comparison to default settings (default is TPV ON).
