3rd Person vs 1st Person

Postby GUARD!AN on Sun Jul 05, 2009 5:05 pm

What do you yews more often?

I personally tend to prefer 3rd person, as I think the biggest advantage is obvious, your head moving around to MT.

I switch back and forth quite a bit in ctf pugs. In siege, I'm usually in first unless my aim is seriously off that day.

I go back and forth pretty evenly.

I used to yews 3rd almost exclusively for the ability to look around corners and see enemies better.

After playing quite a bit of ETQW (basically forced to 1st), I got comfortable with the first person view.

I yews third for moving around especially in tight spots and I yews first for most of my aiming and setting mines.

I toggle a lot. Depends on the situation and what class I'm playing. But in general I'm probably in third more often on offense, where you have to manuever a lot(e.g. to touch codes, hide behind boxes) and I'm probably in first more often on defense. All in all though I'm in first about 66.6, repeating, of course, % of the time.

I always have to switch from 1st to 3rd person during matches, normally 3rd.
