This is actually something I wanted to see in a idtech game since d3w. I thought if anyone was going to do it first, it would be the darkmod guys because it would make alot of sense in those games. Great to see someone actually pull it off, though it makes me feel lie my idea really wasnt that original.
Also, just incase we didnt have enough examples of games using FP/TP, you got all the Tribes games, Starsiege, Mechwarrior Online, Chivalry and I know there are others, these are just the ones that come to mind. Some make more sense than others, (switching makes sense/is cool in Tribes, makes Far less sense in Mech, and is not very balanced in Chiv), but even in Mech, having a seemingly unified first person/world view is very benificial to the game. Course you wouldnt know motorsep since you probably dont play these games and as such means they can't possibly be of any value to anybody, ever
