yea i saw this, looks nice, but i think FPP view is not the best for this game, cause you have to see all your surroundings (aliens are coming from all over the place) and in FPS you see only your front so it's easy for aliens to get you from the back/side.

It's definitely easier to aim though.

Imho they should allow this view style, add a sky and then perhaps have a little blip on the radar when an alien is detected, that way it gives the player the ability to have a quick idea of where the next alien is coming from and gives them time to turn.

FPS will always prove a more popular play style and if the engine allows it then they should consider it.

i don't think so :). Cause you have to aim not only horizontally but also vertically, and don't even see whole area where you can aim, while in normal mode you only aim on flat screen (in 2d area) and see everything around.
