Wolfguarde 108 Posted February 21, 2014 In my opinion, the existing state of things is fine.You have FPV servers, the rest of us have FPV-optional servers. We understand that you don't like TPV. I personally don't get why this is even still an issue. How does the existence of FPV-optional servers affect your gameplay style if you don't actually play on them? Everyone currently has what they want as far as perspective is concerned.If you're intent on pushing this argument on the rest of us, I encourage you to consider the Dark Ages. Christianity as a whole did much the same thing as the FPV-only camp seems to be trying to do now, albeit on a much larger scale and a hell of a lot more brutally. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
- Karma - 75 Posted February 21, 2014 It is a very interesting idea, and I personally would have no problem if something like it made its way into the game. I do think that could take a lot of time to program if it wasn't part of the basic engine, so we'll see if the Devs ever get interested enough or not. But as Klemingway and Wolfguarde said above, you have to really careful when throwing around percentages and all encompassing statements (especially when they regard other people's opinions). Unless you have polls or something to at least give you a shred of proof, expect reaction to be wishy-washy to downright hostile. I too will agree that in theory, 3PP has no business in a game where "true-to-life survival simulator" is the idea. In that regard, Devs likely need to clearly define the point of what they're going for (probably already have, I just haven't seen it) because we get some people leaning towards "true-to-life is what this game is supposed to be" kind of statements (like yours) when this could just be a "horror MMO game with survival elements, played to hardcore and casual gamers alike" as far as the Devs are concerned. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hethwill_Khan 233 Posted February 21, 2014 2017 implemented something like this, I like it and hope to see some servers implement something similar once modding is allowed. Could probably do with some improvements so it's not so jarring though, maybe fade them out over time or something. well coded :) thanks for showing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monkfish (DayZ) 339 Posted February 21, 2014 Oh god, not this shit again. There's a fucking huge topic already on the forum discussing 3PP expoiting and suggests fixes for it. The suggestion you've made has already been mentioned, it was just called "4th Wall" instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
