    I pretty much forgot about third person in the multiplayer until today and gave it a go.

    Was fine enough in the ctf teamgames, didnt make any major chnages beyond the need for red dot sights etc seemed alot less apparant. Dont know if the same applies to acog etc, if so could be an easy way to level up to thermal.

    But it didnt change the game much for me in any way.

    But someone told me that the quickest way to level up weapons (specifically pistols etc) is to use the 3rd person cage match mode.

    And this mode is...AWESOME!

    Its the only gametype that I have seen use the RUST map and the third person elements really help to bring out the tension as you move from cover to cover. Pretty intense stuff, had one player where we went three round, one on terminal that I won by 1 point and one on rust he won by 2 points, and then me scraping it again with 1 point on sub base. Exciting tense stuff.

    3rd person really brings out the need for cover alot more then first person, as you can make out how much of your outline is in cover etc.

    Killstreaks still apply, though its best to opt for the automatic ones rather then those that drop in or you control as its a pain trying to control a predator against one person weaving and dodging and yourself possible exposed.

    Gonna play this mode alot more now when I need a break from the hectic domination and team deathmatch games.
