It's just easier to play and the gap between low skill and high skill will become smaller.
I know some ppl will disagree if I say it is a shooter but for me it is.
Think about Counter-Strike or Battlefield in 3rd person.
They don't have it because there is a reason.
Good ppl stand out so much more with 1st person and I think that is the reason some ppl want 3rd person back. They can't handle a lose against a real good player.
I'm talking about the medium skilled ppl which tell you storys about how good they are.
It feels like 80% of the players I've talked with on freezzer are 100% sure they are the best player in the world and if they lose, the enemy was a hacker, it's cause of 1st person, you get flamed because, for example, the weapons you use or any other excuse. Most ppl are so cocky and mad. If you kill them they are going to hate you forever.
I'm so out of topic. I'm sorry
