need more players on the first person servers!

[qww 287]

id love to see more people playing on the first person only servers, i cant believe so many prefer 3rd person, i feel that 3rd person is missing the point of this game, using alt and seing any impossible angle, etc.

im even reading people saying they get motion sickness??? unbeleivable

 

please, more players, try the hardcore servers, its so much more simulator, so much less arcade game with super vision

how is it unbelievable that some people get motion sickness from 1st person?

[qww 287]

well i shoudl say i made thsi topic because its hard to find active hardcore servers a lot of time late at night, not because i want to hate on people who get motion sickness

 

but after seaching forums it seems a lot of peopel use the reason that they cant play 1st person because they get motion sickness, i know everyones different, but i cant relate to that, and i fidn it suprising how much it comes up, i just feel " havent you ever seen a fps before?"

 

how about you ig rage, do you get motion sickness in 1st person? do you from other fps games? do you play 3rd person? do you enjoy looking around the impossible angles?

[ig-rage 78]

i prefer 1st person, 3rd person is annoying to control.

I personally cant understand why people get motion sickness from playing on 1PP. It's pretty much the same thing except you cant see your toon and there are sometimes where there is a gun or fists on your screen. It might also be a FOV issue. I personally prefer the 1PP because I dont like the fact that someone maybe looking at me when I cant see them. If someone wants to shoot me, Id rather it on a level playing field.

Not enough men to play real DayZ. (awesome women are accepted as well)

personally i always play on 1st person in hardcore for 1 reason : so no one else abuse the 3rd person view against me in game ( seeing above the wall and roof tops and all these stuff ) .  :rolleyes:

Your Sir...really?

 

Ask ppl why they get cancer, doubt more then 10% can tell you.

I used to play with my sister some ego-shooters back in the days, she could play/watch like 20-40 minutes after that she felt dizzy and had headache - some ppl just can't play in first person, get it. Probably the same reason why some ppl can't watch 3D-flicks, but i'm not a doctor.

 

I play firstperson only and had success get my whole clique doin so, they fought it tooth and nail - that cornerlurkin in 3PP sucks so damn hard, alone for that reason i recommend everyone who's not motionsick and a fair player to play 1PP - but hey, only my humble opinion.

[Etherimp 1323]

I can play most FPS games without a problem.. In fact, I've been playing FPS games since the Doom and Quake days. DayZ however has some very large perspective issues which make it ... "uncomfortable".. Doesn't make me sick, but it definitely doesn't feel "good".. The small doorways/hallways/houses are extremely difficult to maneuver in, in 1st person. If it's dark outside and you have to use a flashlight/headlamp, that even makes it worse.

 

That said, I would have no problem playing on 1st person server.. But most of my friends prefer 3rd person, and the community  I am in runs a 3PP server, so that's why I usually play on normal hive.

[EvilTigerAce 131]

I prefer 1st person, 3rd person = headglitching/looking through walls a lot

[lauda 44]

Most people think they have an advantage when they can look over walls, through windows while in prone position and so on. And they forget or rule out that the others can do the same. Somehow that´s simply stupid!

When i started to play the SA (never played the mod) i´ve also prefered the 3rd person view, because its more comfortable over all (higher cam position, better overview and so on) But after some time it made me sick to get killed all the time by people which have the patience to lay behind windows, walls, on roofs all day long without moving a meter. That kind of patient players have the real advantage! I actually want to run around and i have no chance to discover "that players" but they can see me and wait ∞ for their moment.

 

I understand that some people have problems with motion sickness. But if that´s the reason we would have 5% on 3PP and 95% on 1PP on not vice versa.

Ok, it´s not really a problem for me, but some more 1PP players to have more populated hardcore servers would be nice.

another thread asking for more people to explore the more realistic side of this game, maybe. does that offend you?

as someone above said, the view is almost the same in 3rd person, just with a character on the screen, so why the addition of a character stops sickness, i dotn get it.

the posts ive been reading seem to make out that just this game, or this engine causes the motion sickness, thats why i asked the guy if he had the experience with other fps', cause i cant see how just this game would cause problems and other fps wouldnt, maybe soem people cant handle the head bob, but they can disable that, if they cant handle it. maybe it goes to show how realistic this game feels in fp. comparing my question to how do peopel get cancer isnt very well thought out i think, but its all good.

 

the post is just trying to say, hey if you really liek the immersive experience, play 1st person, on hardcore servers, they need more players(!) while also expressing my confusion about the high volume of motion sickness complaints ive read here

moving around is not difficult in first person,. but it does require more situational awareness, in other games it doesnt matter, but this engine actually has your character in the game, so if your body with the kit wouldnt fit through at an awkward angle, it doesnt in game either, sure its not perfect , but all fps are a bit glitchy anyway. maybe you already know everything i just typed.

 

playing in fp this is such an immersive and rewarding game, for a noob it might be at first confusing and out of comfort zone, but soon that will pass.  if i have convinced  1 more player to start joining the first person servers, its 1 more person to play with/against :) the servers really are too qiuet! which is why i posted this topic. not because of the motion sickness thing.

I alreadt play 1PP. The fact is... this isn't a military sim. This is not ArmA. Even first person can be abused. And, btw, head bob gives people motion sickness.

TL;DR

Use the search option, quit beating a dead horse, and for the love of god don't push your play style on people.

not very fair, you assuming ALL 3pp players are cheating assholes.

[lauda 44]

You can also "kiss the wall" in 1st person!

[trkrap 1]

Motion Sickness is something, i never had on PC but while playing MGS on ps3 couple years ago i had an killer headache for 3 days.

 

I love playing in 1st person but since its kinda lagging i cant in cities.

[byrgesen 1341]

I'll come play with you, love the first person view in this game :)
But im kinda hanging back atm. I "overplayed" the mod in the early days, and got bored fast.
I dont want to do that with this game, so i dont really play much yet.

 

I want to add, ive played quite alot of Arma in MilSim communities and ive run into at least 10 different people, who would get this motion sickness.
So i believe it effects only a very small percentage of the player base really.
Most might just be faking it because they prefer 3rd person view, for what ever reason ;)

I already know the merits of 1st person.. I'm just saying DayZ doesn't do it very well.

 

If, however, they fixed a couple of minor issues and made all servers 1st person only, I wouldn't protest.

[Lady Kyrah 1110]

I haven't said anything about cheating but since your camera is further in the back, you do tend to have your face planted in walls whenever you're moving in urban environment as a 3rd PP :)

i definetely didnt ask what playslye you used, i didnt say it was a military sim, didnt say it was arma, didnt say 1st person couldnt be abused,

i did suggest motion sickness gives people head bob, so i dont know why youre telling that back to me.

 

i didnt need to use teh search option as i was making a new request to try and rouse new players interests in 1st person, instead of being put off, and i have not suggested that 3rd person is a bad thing, i simply want more players to try 1st person, to get more activity in the hardcore servers. the topic title is need more players on 1st person servers, there is a massive lack of players realisng the potential of the immersion/simulation

I never really did get that in a PC-game either, nor on console...untill I've bought Doom3 a few weeks ago, could play for like 5 minutes, then had to turn off the console. I really don't understand what triggered this.

 

 

The only difference between hardcore and regular is the lack of 3rd-person-view in hardcore, right?
