About talk of 1st person driving.

Games Other Halo

There has been chat about weather or not they should include 1st person driving to be toggled like in bf3. So here is my opinion:

> I dislike seeing this idea sugested. It takes away from the simplicity, consistency, and respect for gameplay mechanics, it feels silly to be able to change gameplay style mid game.
> I don’t even like it in racing games.

1st person driving might be cool, but if its toggle; I’m out.

Oh no! More options! How terrible! It’s making me feel uncomfortable! Get rid of it! It must be one way or the other! I don’t like it, so everyone else has to suffer! D: D: D:

Halo has always had third person driving, but first person driving would be a unique and entertaining experience. However, if implemented, it should be toggle-able for ease of access and comfort.

Well it is either toggle or not at all. First person driving is really horrible, it just looks cool. You can’t actually do anything with it. And I don’t see why 343i should waste time making it work when people are only going to use it to screw around, enjoy the view, or for machinima.

I love this stabbing at the CE purists. Get the flame suit ready just in case.

Nothing so far on FPS view on vehicles. I am for such ideas though. Have the option to pick third or first person view.

Of course, this might not be as viable in MP but for Machinima and Campaign? Oh yeah baby, talk about immersion.

Well, Driving was always implemented on Halo as 3rd Person (Except in Halo 1, where the Passenger view was 1st Person, but that really affects gameplay, it’s not the same shooting a Halo-DMR/AR than a MA41 from CoD, for example)…

No… nope, i don’t think 1st Person view Driving will be implemented in Halo. Maybe as a Mod for Halo: Custom Edition.

It is a dumb feature, only machinima people will actually use it reguarly, and making things for machinima people kind of defeats the whole point of machinima.

Meh, it would be fantastic for Custom Games and Forge. It would be really fun, and that is the whole point of video games.

Dumb feature? It would greatly help balance some of the vehicles. For example, a first person view out of a scorpion.
