On feb 22nd Lee posted that he is actually working on a real 3rd person view for all models. I hope to God this is true. I was told before that guru had 3rd person, but it was just a wizard and a fireball Don't let me down buddy.

This is true. In the private beta all stock characters are working in TPV, most with the weapons the are assigned.

Some little quirks to iron out, but this is coming for sure.

can the 3rd person character switch and pick up any weapon? or can it have only one weapon?

Ultimately, we should be able to switch between 3rd person and 1st person in real time.

The version you have now only works with the Wizard .... Place a start marker then select the wizard and place him to the start marker ...then click him and alter your camera setting in properties ...

Currently all characters are being made 3rd person ... this will be in the next update

Switching weapons (even if the animations aren't yet available in the characters) would be great. As would being able to switch between first and third as this would allow some interesting game play options.

Cheers.

I see three important requests that needs to be validated until the new TPS system gets viable :

- Will it be some parameters to tweak the Third Person system ?
Mouse , joystick sensivity , distance from player , height offset from player , locked or free camera

- Will it be possible to control anything with new TPS system : characters, hoverbike, bike ?

- Will coders be able to use TPS system only and drive themselves character animations,interaction and effects using Lua ?

At the moment you have the same control you have with the Wizard which does already include distance from player , height offset from player , locked or free camera if I'm reading you correctly ....But does not have mouse / Joystick sensitivity .... In fact GG does not support Joystick at all ..

Other than that I'm not sure yet what goodies lee will be adding to the TPS ... I attached a tank but it was limited

Hopefully in 2017 a 3rd person character will be able to switch weapons. This is an ABSOLUTE MUST for a 3rd person.

Hopefully this will come yes but don't be disappointed if its not in the next update .... Third person for all characters was totally unexpected this time round and I will happily take whatever we get
