3rd Person Cage Match

3rd Person Cage Match is a lot like the Cage Match game mode in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It is however played in 3rd Person. Like other 3rd person gametypes, when aiming through the iron-sights you don't look through the view in 1st person, but the crosshair shrinks to the size of the bullet radius, so for more accurate guns the crosshair is very small, however on sniper scopes, you aim down the scope, just like in first person.

Kills in this game mode are worth 200 XP. The score limit is 20 kills. The match ends when the 10 minute time limit is reached.

Trivia

 * IW probably made Cage match into 3rd person due to players using it as an easy way to get camouflages for their guns in Call of Duty 4.


 * Using an ACOG scope increases your zoom when aiming down the sights, but you are still in 3rd person perspective.


 * Aiming down the sights with a sniper or thermal scope allows you to look through the scope.


 * Using Scrambler in this game mode is a bad idea, as the enemy will be able to know when you are near by watching his radar gradually fade away, so he will actually have a precise way of locating you instead of the opposite, which is the purpose of Scrambler.


 * Although Heartbeat Sensors are far less effective in this game mode than others, they can still prove useful; the beeps indicating enemy personnel to the front are still audible, and flanking maneuvers are more difficult for an enemy to execute in third person.


 * Riot shields are particularly effective in third person due to no flanking risk and being able to see everything without the riot shield obstructing the view.


 * Many players 'pretend' to boost with another person, where they agree with the other player to let them complete a challenge, and upon completion, leave the game, or win the game fairly, tricking the booster out of boosting.


 * Boosting, for headshots, on 3rd Person Cage Match is harder than boosting on a normal cage match due to the aim reticules, but this is easily avoided by putting a ACOG scope on the chosen gun.
 * There isn't a first person cage match possibly because of the heartbeat sensor attachment, this would make the other player way too easy to find for a 1 on 1 game type.
