Like I said. @FaIIenAngeI777 , even as an option. It just ruins the whole point of Apex Legends existing. Apex Legends is one of if not the only true first-person battle royale as far as I know. If they add a third-person mode, what makes it so much more special than like a game like PubG?
FPS only for the win.
No thank you. Maby if there was a toggle option but I'd only use 3rd person for running with a wider view.
- @Witherpizza Nah... The option for each player to choose which way they’d prefer to play is the win. No one is asking for a mode. The ask is that the option for either be available. Many other games do this. For Apex not to would be a failure to provide a feature that is becoming a genre norm.
I really enjoyed 3rd person mode and even duos, but even as an option, I can see people going 3rd view to see everyone over a wall, without having to peak out. So a better suggestion is allow players to create 'private servers', where they can que up a mode with custom settings / mode and play it with friends. They wouldn't get XP or anything like that, (for the most part), but they will be able to play with friends and maybe even other players who fit the gamemode settings chosen. I don't know, but when Fortnite released Playground, it was fun and amazing that people can fight each other endlessly in a mode like that. We currently have "firing range" with two other players to fill this void.
But you know, that's just me.- @Witherpizza You know, it is very possible for the game to have both... This LTM proved that.
So why are you so against this game having BOTH options available? People like you can play FPS, and people who like TTP can play that.
Can you provide an actual argument as to why you don't think it should be added, other than that you just don't like it and don't want it to even touch the core game? I think the main issue would be longer queue times. Especially if they include "everything" people want. With the player base in the shape that it is and the attitudes people have, I personally can't see it happening for some time.
Solo,duo,3p,fp,casual, ranked,different maps, different modes...the list goes on and so would queue times

It was too hard to relearn how to play the game. Makes you really appreciate how awesome the engine is they use for Apex. It reminded me of trying to play the early Tomb Raider games. It was fun for 2 days but I won’t be missing it.
For those who say an option in settings is good, what about having the ability to peek around corners (like others have said)?
Just like MouseKeyboard vs Controller, FPS vs 3rd person carries the same argument; both have some advantages and disadvantages, where's the consistency with who is using 3rd person and who's using 1st person? Let's say you are using 1st person and an enemy is using 3rd, now who's going to see who first around a corner? Don't forget that in 3rd person you technically have more view of your surroundings.
For those who say that adding 3rd person as a mode, why? How can you play Apex Legends for this long and say that 3rd person would be a great addition?
Lobbies would be split, I want to get in an FPS match let's say, and if 80% people like 3rd person so much, how long do you think it would take me to get into a 1st person match?
Game no longer becomes new user-friendly. New players would most likely struggle to choose modes. I know this from experience when I first tried out PubGMobile, I needed a friends help on a lot of things, and the which is better 3rd or 1st person was one of those things.
Think of it like this, let's say there's some gamer, his name is Ben, he says, "I want to play a battle royale game, I've never tried Battle Royale before." Now, Ben has heard about 2 free Battle Royales that are very popular at the moment, he says, "Which one should I pick?" at the current moment, one of them is strictly 1st person, and the other is 3rd person. Ben says, "Well I like 3rd person, so obviously I will choose the game which is using this feature." Now that's an easy choice and a no-brainer, Ben likes 3rd person, he went for the 3rd person Battle Royale.
Let's go back in time and let's say the FPS BR added 3rd person before Ben had the idea of playing a BR game. Now he is confused which game is the better option. Their basically the same, just one of them is going to be worse because it wasn't built to be in 3rd person, but Ben doesn't know that yet.
I'm sorry, but if they add an option or a mode, I would just have to quit. It already takes me 2 minutes to get into a match.
Keep the 3rd person players on the 3rd person BR. Keep the 1st person players on the 1st person BR.
ALSO, how are DT's (digital threats) going to work, yeah we'll just make it so you can fps with those, like wut? That is what is known as a stacked advantage.
Apex Legends was never made for 3rd person and technically wouldn't work without consequences that in my opinion, would ruin the CORE of the game.
That being said, I am here for the FPS, if they add Third-person, then I'm out and that's the last straw.
