Sense Of Perspective

I know how it helps the engi. Does anyone know if it works the same for Operative/Soldier?

thanks

It works for them too.

For soldier it gives you third person camera while pacing HE charge.

It doesn’t matter for operative, you can’t spot an enemy and stop placing the hack box quicker than just placing the box. Once the box is up, you get standard first person with PDA.

I dont understand why we have to change moving for looking. IMO if we take that ability we should be able to move and look where we want using our mouse.

I haven’t taken this buff yet. I’m worried about the loss of mobility.

The mobility loss isn’t an issue. It will save you that you spot an enemy and can move away and fight back - being almost blind and able to inch a meter from side to side does little for you.

It is a must for engineering imo.

It does work with Soldiers and Operatives, and Medics on the universal objectives which require interaction - capturing CPs and delivering intel. Basically any time you’re interacting with something as an objective, it moves to 3rd person.

If you’re an Engineer, it’s pretty important because you have “interact” objectives which take a long time, but the other classes don’t so much - unless you’re going to be focusing on CP capturing, it’s less important for those classes. Not totally useless, but far less so. I don’t use it because I’m useless at being Engineer, and the times it’s got me killed are far less than the times having another ability instead has saved me.
