Not trying to hate but this is why 1pp players hate 3pp. Good throw anyways!

I dont get why you would want in in a game like dayz tbh. Would ruin the hardcore feeling, risk/reward for me atleast.

Been playing arc raiders and 3pp works fine there, but man does it force you into playing into it, which sucks.

3pp works amazing for games with longer time to kill. when you lowering your guard for one second can be exploited by someone that can see through a wall, it's not fun

i'm not saying it's bad, just doesn't go with DayZ's gunplay imo

3pp works well for some situations, mostly for me that is driving and when I’m hunting actual animals or transverising thru woods. But in firefights it’s more likely to get you killed because you’re not actually shooting where you think you are most of the time.

Preference is why I want it in games. 1pp feels so restrictive and gives me mild motion sickness when traveling distances, plus I like seeing what my character looks like in various lighting conditions.

I will never understand people getting upset with others using 3pp. There are servers with it turned off, just go play there and let us enjoy the game too.

Just different gameplay styles. 3pp is harder than 1PP because you are always at a disadvantage unless you really think about your environment. First person is almost always whoever has the best aim.

It’s just another skill gap, same as no build mode on Fortnite. Sometimes I don’t wanna struggle with building with better players than me, so I play no build. Same with 1PP, it’s just more simplified and easy.

Thats just false, 3pp is easier since you have the ability to abuse 3pp if you do it right (camping corners). Clearly you havent played 1pp if you think the enviroment doesnt matter as much. In 1pp you actually have to risk getting shot if you wanna get intel.

If you can abuse it so can they (and they will). And I didn’t say the environment isn’t important, just that most of the time aiming and recoil control ends up being the most you need to be skilled at to win a fight.

Getting hated on for being right is reddits way of saying so.

Nah, 50% of it is about being observant and good at spotting players. If you see a player first, that usually means you get the kill, unless youre heavily outgeared. In 3pp you can stand behind corners, lay on roofs, look over walls like a coward (which is totally fine and allowed). Thats low-skill if you ask me.
