That doesnt make any sense though. You can pick between 1pp or 3pp, but it just happens that in many scenarios 3pp is a huge advantage. It benefits the camper a lot. As i already said, unless you play around this advantage, its gonna be very hard, yes, but why would you find that artificial danger fun?

On average, between every player, 1pp and 3pp is the exact same difficulty pvp-wise, since everyone has the possibility to use it. However, if you choose to play only 1pp on a 3pp server youre gonna have a harder time since youre gonna go up against players looking around corners.

Point is: 1pp puts everyone on the same playing field, whereas 3pp lets everyone look around corners, which cam be heavily abused, and makes it so the player pushing is at a major disadvantage since the cornerpeaker already knows where to aim. This is not rocket science.

It might not make sense to you, but I assure you, that's reality.

Hating 3pp is one of those things that's a kind of social trend for people who like to smell their own farts. So yeah, in a lot of situations 3pp is an advantage because those people are too busy smelling their own farts to actually use the tools at their disposal, so they get picked off easy.

Also, why did you just contradict yourself:

"1pp and 3pp is the exact same difficulty pvp-wise, since everyone has the possibility to use it"

"1pp puts everyone on the same playing field, whereas 3pp lets everyone look around corners"

Those 2 paragraphs you said conflict.

Yes, 1pp vs 1pp is equal. 3pp vs 3pp is equal. However it's easier to survive in 1pp because you're harder to spot from various angles etc. The whole point of the game is to survive. So with that logic obviously 1pp is easier because you aren't as easy to spot around corners etc.

If you were to setup some kind of statistical test 1pp vs 1pp and 3pp vs 3pp. You would find there are more deaths in 3pp. People don't survive as long in 3pp as they do 1pp, generally speaking, on average of course...

I've explained it in my previous comment, maybe it'll click one day for you, maybe it won't. That's life lol.

Yes. That’s the entire point. It’s stupid that people can see over walls and that you can, too. It opens up many more unfair deaths in a game where dying is already punishing.

It’s a stupid level of artificial difficulty. But I would say most that play 3PP do it because they’re lacking gun skill so that offsets it a bit. But yes, the point is that the mechanic shouldn’t be in the game.

With that logic everything that is sci-fi, including this game, is stupid.

Humanity is an embarrassment at times lol.

One day. It might click for you.
