ADD 3rd Person into Settings

-Now hear me out

I was recently in Firing Range and I tried 3rd Person and it works so much better than 1st person. Now I enjoy 1st person, but surprising I seem better in third.

Seeing yourself and what you character is doing in combat is so useful.

I was able to hit 3 wingman headshot while in the air from a jump-pad in 3rd person. It's amazing. It needs tweaked though if it's an option in settings in the future versus 1st person players.

In Settings the player should get 3 options: 1st person, 3rd Person, Both

For "Both" you stay in 3rd until you aim down sights

-helps in combat

-look at your amazing $20 skins

-devs have the ability to add 3rd person heirloom animations besides melee

-don't need to worry about iron sights (like the G7)
-Find new use 1x optics

-able to tell how bad your lagging or glitching

-Everything above 3x optics switch's to first person regard-less 

(fix the charge rifle in 3rd person)

(fix pistols aiming while walking with rampart, loba, horizon, and wattson)

Solutions to 3rd person

1.)   If there is an issue between 1st person and 3rd person players in the arena. (which there really shouldn't be, the options there)

-(for example seeing around cover) zoom in on the 3rd person camera BUT NOT FEILD OF VIEW SETTINGS

OR

2.)  If that's not good enough of a solution let 3rd person players see around cover while 1st person players get indicators of 3rd person players that might have a slight advantage of seeing around cover (probably the better option)

I highly believe with these changes 3rd person could be in Apex for those who want it or prefer it in their settings.

  • @031567 I only like 3rd person when it was set to a mode, where EVERYONE was stuck in it. If some can select 3rd person, they can just look around corners and see people before they see them. Legit why Fortnite has more players planning or whatever, because they can watch without being seen. In Apex, you peak, you get sniped.

    @Midnight9746 Ik, I was considering that: but if 3rd person people are able tp see around corners than 1st person players versus 3rd person players should get (i guess) an indicator kind like bloodhound/crypto scan constantly.

    If 3rd person players can see around corners
    Then 1st person players get a scan when REALLY close to the 3rd person player.

    This allows both points of view to see one another
  • @031567 I actually loved the third person game mode for apex because we could actually enjoy our legend’s skins instead of only seeing their hands every match

    It also had many benefits like being able to see around cover, how your movement was to see if you needed improvements, etc

    They should allow you to toggle it in a match, on controller im not quite sure what buttons you would hit maybe clicking 2 buttons at the same time similar to the ultimate like clicking both sticks at the same time but on pc it would be easier because theres so many keyboard buttons to choose
