Q: Will Crystal Blue have an FP mode?
« on: May 25, 2004, 03:16:00 am »
Will Crystal Blue have a First - Person mode where the world is presented as seen thru the eyes of your character?

The reason I ask is that I\'m into building immersive devices such as HMDs and psuedo-haptic devices to work with existing software. Obviously, for good immersion you need to see with your character\'s eyes.

I\'m sure there\'d be a first person mode, just not feasible when fighting though. MB already has a first-person mode.

edit: hell, even Atomic Blue had a first-person mode. Believe me, Atomic Blue actually worked on my PC, heh I was like the only person ever on.

So no fighting in first person mode? :( When you zoom out of your characters view I think it eliminates the emmersion almost completely, just becomes another game - not to mention ruins pick pocketing but that discussion is for another forum.

To Parts: Yes CB will have at least some fp view from what I have read, just like MB.

they listen well don\'t they.  :)

If there is a chance of no First Person mode, than I see no reason for some of the /history.txt files to talk about that camera mode being tweeked.
I also don\'t see how it would be hard to fight in First Person seing as how it was the best way in Morrowind. Maby I am the only one that had trouble with battle in their third person interface. Seems like it would work similar though.
And now back to my pickled beets... 8)

sure itll have 1st person, 1st person fighting to im sure, but the screen wont shake when you attack or show your arms attacking or anything

i agree 1st person is really immersive, especially when it has dynamic sound and you can hear a person walking up from behind you, i like being able to hear footsteps from faraway and hear them get loud and louder as they run by

its also really immersive when your in the same room with someone you dont realy know and with first person you can always tell if there looking at you or not, and you always have to be facing the direction your looking when talking to friends and stuff, that really adds alot to MMORPGs i think
