I think it would be awesome to add a first-person mode for vehicles, especially the BR Car, tanks, and APCs, and maybe even for fighter jets and helicopters. This could make driving and combat more immersive, adding a new layer of strategy.

A great way to implement this could be allowing players to switch between first-person and third-person by pressing "C", similar to how we switch views in other parts of the game.

Entity handling needs to be redone for this to be supported.

WB started as a vehicle game, and as such everything user-controlled is considered a "vehicle," even the person. So when you "enter" a vehicle, you're not entering it in the direct sense of the word, you're literally turning into that vehicle.

For exposed players to be supported, there either has to be a complete rewrite of entity handling, or usage of a number of workarounds to achieve the same result. Neither is particularly easy to implement
