Would you "1st person only" on your server?
What's your opinion about it in Antistasi Multiplayer? Answer with a YES or NO (deleted otherwise), if you wish to discuss it widely, google a3antistasi and find the forum

Pros
- Way more balanced PvP
- Give meaning to someone spotting for you (instead of watching while behind a cover)
- Make fight longer = less AI need to spawn.

Cons
- Difficult to drive/land at HQ
- Less FoV (not true, just double tap "zoom out" = wider FoV!)
- Can't selfie screenshot

EDIT:
* Apparently people can't read "YES or NO",
* This can't be applied to the mission, it's an option for each server...so relax, it's just to understand what people think

for PVP definitly no 3rd. But for PVE, while not a requrement, it helps level the field a bit given how easily and quickly the AI detects you. But all said and done if antistasi is going to keep pvp I'd say disable 3rd.

First person only, it's hard to do certain stuff like you say, but with teamwork everyone can land a chopper or park a car without driving over Petros.

no (or let admin have the option to choose)

i am definitly pro first person only. This takes some time to get used to it but the experience is way better then with 3rd person enabled.
Using vehicles (APC/Tanks) 1st person only is great, because you do need a team, you can not really operate it solo and this leads to better teamplay.
Also "- Make fight longer = less AI need to spawn." is a huge point as server performance is a big issue at the moment.

Yes but why does this have to be on Steam? It's not related to the mission itself, but to the server we have, which has its own website.

i think that only 1st person will give a lot more to server, a new experience, a new way to play and it will be more difficult and fun to play. In my opinion the server will became much better and more professional

Personally, no.

I'd rather the POV not be locked so people can pick what they want. I tend to be a fair bit of swapping between third and first person when i play depending on the situation. A lot of people don't like playing first person only. The better idea, to appease as many people as possible, is to leave it unlocked and let people use what they want.

As we displayed with the last poll, there is a good sized group of players who definitely don't enjoy not having the choice. Vehicles are unusable to me in 1st person. The largest issue with a 1st person lock is it requires people to communicate and work as a team. This is fine with a group of players who work as a team on a regular basis. THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE ON A PUBLIC SERVER WITH RANDOS. The official server should allow people to play antistasi however they want as so they can actually enjoy the content of the mod. Instead of being restricted to how some other players and admins feel they should play arma.
