UT2004 -- Changing to 3rd person perspective

[bobber205]

How do I change to 3 person instead of 1st person? I can't seem to find it in the options.

isnt unreal supposed to be a first person shooter.

It is.

I've only known of third person while driving though.

If you do configure controls, it's whatever you have "toggle Behind View" set to. But you'd be crazy to use that for anything other than vehicles.

There is a mutator you can download, i think it is called aerial view or something like that

Don't you just hit F4?

I'm sure that's how I did it back when I had it installed 🙂

Yea, it's F4. Just beware, that when in 3rd person view, you are always targeting to the head level of the enemy, if he and you are on the same floor. In other, words, you cant move your aim top and bottom, just left and right.

I agree, it is interesting to change it to a 3rd person perspective, but it just makes it harder to shoot others and easier to be shot at in my experience using it. 😱 🙂

Seconded. Interesting for about the 30 seconds until you realise you're not killing anyone easily in that view and you're just easy prey. Best to keep to 1st Person. 😀
