GTA IV, should it be first person

[werdna-94]

If I made gta iv it would be 1st person.In multiplayer it would good if its only went to 3rd person when your in cover, like the 'quantim of solice' game I've seen that and it works perfectly. I hate it when I'm playing on PSN (playstation network) and I'm trying to get up a flight of stairs and i can't do it in one try because of the 3rd person camera!!!! WHAT DO YOU THINK

This reminds me of a Metal Slug 7 discussion. This guy was upset that Metal Slug 7 didn't support "fixed shot" aiming (when shooting, you stand in place and have precise aim), and that he couldn't aim with the current Metal Slug controls. He was also suggesting that Metal Slug 7 should have an RPG-like element to the game so that you level up every time you play it to make the game easier (you know, so he can beat it). Nobody agreed.

Nobody.

Simply put, when a game develops a traditional feature, it should keep it. If you don't like the feature, you don't like that game's tradition. Find another game that is more of what you're looking for, or suck it up and get used to it. You'll find that the latter is muuuuch better.

I see third person as being a definitive attribute of the most recent games of the GTA series, and ergo would just be uncomfortable with the idea of it being first person. It'd make the game feel so different, and I daresay might even get some groups to be more angry at Rockstar for bringing the player closer to the violence, guns, etc. So no, it should not.

There's a first person mod somewhere, from what I saw it's actually pretty good.

Also the tradition of GTA games before 4 was them being a little crazy (Tanks etc.) and 4 ruined that for me. *huggles saints row 2*
