Mods, if there is any for this(May be some script/line of code you can use to do it). Using third person to aim was never intended given it is far less useful to aim with at medium-long range. This game is an fps first and fore most, third person was just a nice little feature added in to Operation Flashpoint and beyond.

Plus third person can be a bit of an unfair advantage, add to that the same benefits of aiming in first and it is unfair at close quarters fighting

You are talking about zoom. That is handled with holding right click(Just like Eagle said. Also holds your breath), I usually set a secondary zoom to my mousewheel click and remove menu select from it so I don't hold my breath every time.

it usually isn't unfair in multiplayer actually, i've only met a few people who never use third person, i honestly think most people use it at least situationally if given the choice.

Let me clarify on this one, I mean moreso to all those survival modes and solo stuff. As for milsim and what not I totally agree. Hell I even use it at times just because I find third person to be fun(I try to stick to 1st as much as I can for the immersion though, but yea).
