Please can we see more Veteran/Expert Servers with 3rd person & cross hairs OFF!

Recommended Posts

As the tile says.. pretty please with sugar on top can server admins give us more servers with realistic settings enabled.

I hate 3rd person view and really hate cross hairs on... and would love to see more servers with these things disabled.

I know it is entirely up the server owners what settings to run.. but with 99% of servers having these things enabled it would be nice to see more variety!

If you know of such servers i'd love to see them listed here, the 2 i know of are.

UK 7 by Kelly's Heroes & UK 111...

Thanks

No. Its not fair for beginners.

Sorry what?

Having servers to suit both beginners & veterans is not fair on beginners? ^_^

I'm only asking for some more veteran serves.. not to disallow servers with these features enabled.

Well, it's true that third person is not realistic, but neither is first person.

First person lacks a lot of things you would have in RL like the awareness where exactly you are positioned without looking anywhere but straight,

While third person shows to much behind you you wouldn't recognize usually so it's to much

(just said that to counter the argument of "first person because of realism")

For me, the first person view in Arma2 is kinda bad from the placing (at least it feels rather unrealistic to me), so i stick to 3rd person.

All that said, it's up to the server hosters, but i can understand why more people want to play with 3rd person and so there are more 3rd person servers.

If you are looking for hardcore server with high pvp activity, try FI 1

Put your server browser filter: dayz%=olut=

All =Olut= servers are located in Germany.

I can't really travel with Third Person off. I have to have Third Person for long journeys, especially when I'm traveling from Berezino to the NWAF. If I had to stay in First Person the entire time I'd vomit.

Video Games and Monitors are already limiting because they lack the ability to properly give you the human eyes capability of peripheral vision. Third Person ALMOST gets it right. Remaining in First Person constantly would get sickening because of the tunnel vision. The only way you could solve this is by having three monitors.

If you place your palms flat around the temple of your eyes, thats how much you see in DayZ in First Person.

Third person is the closest to normal vision, if they could find a way to make it so you can't see around walls with it then it would be even better. First person is just so poorly done it's not worth using. It's not "hardcore" or veteran by any means. There's no shortage of servers with the options disabled though.

Its just personal preference.. i'm not judging either option. People have different tastes.

Its the cross hairs that really bug me.. if 3rd person view is enabled.. i simply don't use it. And regarding tunnel vision, i use TrackIr and i don't see lack of peripheral vision an issue. I don't like the idea of people looking around corners in 3rd person view.. but such is life.

TBH everyone has their preference.. I'm just finding it very difficult to find servers with setting i like. If you like cross hairs and 3rd person view you have no such issues, as 99% of servers run these settings.

There's no shortage of servers with the options disabled though.

Well i find very few of them.

With Unmodified Arma server settings, veteran mode disables 3rd person view.. that is all i meant by veteran settings.
