first person is important..

[drongo]

the RMB click Aim mode is so good, and i catch sight of the glorious reload animations hidden there. we all know it's not DIFFICULT to implement FPS as an optional togglable permanant mode to walk around and run around and even glide around in... i don't even care if i can look down and see my body, i just neeed it sometimes. third person is messy and clunky.
it's just been a stubborn choice to only half implement it.
and i tell you what, i don't wanna see my character. my character is hideous. you don't wanna see my character, i don't wanna see my character. peeking over corners in PVP is a nice little cheat to have, but i'd rather sometimes just enable first person and not be using third person, for combat/building or even just immersion and funs sake..

plus, i wanna be able to aim in tight spaces without relying on toggle aim with RMB... and also access my friends horrible stacked crates and close the doors he insists i close even tho they're awful to close :|

Yeah, running around in FPS mode would be nice. I found it slightly easier to swap the hold and toggle for OTS and ADS, so you hold to ADS and click to OTS. I find myself using ADS a lot more and being able to hold to get into it instantly is useful. OTS I really only use for shotguns

just like the division or other games selling outfits, there is no FP mode. You would not be able to see your fancy outfits. Lots of survival games do not have FP mode. Most actually. as a survival lite MMO with outfits, they chose to do the right thing. FP mode would ruin it. You dont like it? Plenty of FP games out there, this hopefully will not be one of them.

I would not mind seeing a mouse middle button scroll to go from first to 3rd. Because 3rd in these games are easier to play but I get what you are saying. Both worlds would be perfect. 1st Person aiming in this game is awesome.

It would do absolutely nothing to your game so why all the pearl clutching in the corner?

This game does allow some first person play, specifically with firearms. Outside of that, the game is mainly a 3rd person exploration game.

If you hold the right mouse button down, then the game enters 3rd person targeting mode. But, if you instead "tap" right click, the game enters first person targeting mode.

If you prefer shooting your targets in first person, then make use of tap right-click. If you prefer to play in third person, hold right-click.

There is a reason, that RUST is a Fst Person game. Once Human should give it a try.

[Front Bucket]

There is a correlation between MTX and third/first person perspectives. Several games have 3rd person JUST to get MTX systems more sales.

It's all about money.

This isn't RUST. RUST is a PVP focused game for Ayn Randian sorts. And while Once Human has some optional PVP elements it's going for a much cuddlier vibe. You may have noticed the cute chibi creatures running around your base and the NPC vendors with ridiculous jellyfish on their heads

[SHADOWTHX]

id much prefer a FPS rather than a 3rd person over the shoulder view.

[Hefutoxin]

I don't care for first person, but I don't think it would be difficult to add.

Of all the things people ask for, this would probably cost the least amount of Development time.

Well, I for one am very grateful that this is 3rd person view. And I do want to be able to see my character.

I chose the female meta and spent the time needed in character creation to create a sexy-looking babe who is now roaming the map in her underwear and army boots. (You can choose to hide most of the armour). Now I'm just waiting for the option to hide the cradle as well.

But as Front Bucket said earlier, it is probably a very deliberate choice on the part of NetEase in order to sell cosmetic gear.
