It's not PlanetSide without the 3rd person view
. I don't recall any other fps games having 1st person-view and 3rd person as well. I think it's essential to infantry and not just vehicles.
-No 3rd person inside facilities....Fine, no prob, but it's needed out in the open world. For instance, I want to know where I'm getting hit from, I switch to 3rd person and see from which direction the enemy is. It's also very effective in detecting cloaked enemies, switch to 3rd person and you can look at your surrounding area and notice a slight blur when the cloaker is making his move. <---only if you don't have dl implant.
But I agree with the people who just posted recently.
