Add 3rd Person View

[Mebeingocre]

The game's animations are wonky and look beta either way. In multiplayer, they are not great either, but having a simple camera switching mechanic is nice.
A dev supported 3rd person is ideal since mod creators have to deal with the consequences of each update and its new code. It would also be nice to appreciate the new armor and models instead of just staring at it in the UI and seeing it nowhere else besides my hands.

And yes, F5 does do 3rd person, but it comes with its own drawbacks including having to be in "dm" status, and having charge attacks not working. Problems that dev backing could easily fix. I'm not saying they should prioritize animations or stability in 3rd person, but the option should be implemented properly and just come with a beta warning.

This game is presently advertised as a FPS game, and it has been so for many years :

Quote from the Steam store :

HOW LONG WILL YOU SURVIVE?
With over 18 million copies sold, 7 Days has defined the survival genre, with unrivaled crafting and world-building content. Set in a brutally unforgiving post-apocalyptic world overrun by the undead, 7 Days is an open-world game that is a unique combination of first-person shooter, survival horror, tower defense, and role-playing games. It presents combat, crafting, looting, mining, exploration, and character growth, in a way that has seen a rapturous response from fans worldwide. Play the definitive zombie survival sandbox RPG that came first. Navezgane awaits!

IMO, 3rd person would perhaps be a nice to have, but I doubt there's any plan for it at this point, nor think it's necessary.

Btw, if you hope to reach the devs, you should post this on their official forum for the game.
