    no seriously though, why isn't that an option? Because it breaks the immersion or is too good?

    Don't want this.
    It looks stupid, because driver is bouncing arround.
    And jeep will be overpowered, because you do much easier roadkills.

    try it sip
    create your own server and drive. eventualy you stop seeing the glitches and have fun.
    And of course it wont be implemented as is. And I only see this kind of perspective working for jeeps(as current tank vision is fine).

    Of course it would be nice to drive in 3rd person view. Especially for the NF jeep, where you nearly can't see something.
    Maybe someone could create a new model for the NF jeep. But right now people are only to make new models for APC or AFV.

    If there is no solution for the bouncing player models then a closed variant of the jeep would maybe a solution. It should take damage from MGs to balancing that you can't hit the driver. Maybe add some extra damage if you hit the engine or tires.

    Sprint key activates turbo if the server operator removes the commenting before turbo in the scripts.

    3rd person view only for jeeps would have been awesome!

    Why does the player bounce around like that.

    If 3rd person views get added, the BE jeep (seats 2) won't have much over the NF jeep (seats 4).

    well if they add a 3rd position where he's sitting up on the back of the BE jeep the difference wont be so bad.

    Turbo can be added on a server with like 2 minutes of scripting.

    It's not even 2 minutes, you just have to delete a bit of commenting leading up to the turbo.
