I had an idea of a Third Person view that could be accessed in the Console Commands, the command would be "thirdperson" obviously, I wanted this to be added in the next new version.

There is no thirdperson or firstperson model for the player. I don't wanna sound rude, but this won't be added unless one is made, which it won't.

No, just no. I see no reason for third person to be in the game, it would offer nothing besides a headache trying to make sure the camera doesn't go through a bunch of objects and shit.

I could see a third person mode happening. You could pull the model of D-9341 from Box of Horrors, the one that falls when you touch SCP-038.

But there's only one thing about this "Third Person" thing:

How the hell is it useless?
WHAT IF A NEW GUY WAS PLAYING SCP:CB

HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT D-9341 WOULD LOOK LIKE.

That's my point, PLUS, That wouldn't be that type of third person, It would be like in Garry's Mod, but instead you can't use guns or any shit like that :/

Uh.. Then he wouldn't give a shit?
PLOT TWIST: Not everyone wonders that, because THE PLAYER is THE CHARACTER. You're welcome.

Thirdperson mode is Thirdperson mode. There's no "Special Garry's Mod Only" Thirdperson mode. Garry's Mod's Thirdperson mode is like every other game's Thirdperson mode. This game would be no exception, and I hope we never get a Thirdperson mode in it. Period.

WE NEED A MOTHERFUCKING THIRDPERSON IN THE FUCKING CONSOLE COMMANDS DO YO-
Okay, I'm yelling at a sexy girl right now.

Did you even read the reasoning on why 3rd person is a bad idea?
And you even created a reason yourself. You don't know who you are, which adds a mysterious background to your character.
Even with having your arms showing up like you do in Garry's Mod, you actually need something to hold.
And please do not tell me about holding keycards, that's dumb. I apologize for somewhat ranting, but you just need to understand that.

Edit: Honestly, you're going to swear... after having a rejected opinion

Hmm...


You have a point there, but holding keycards wont be visible.

It'll be just like in first person, but you can see your own character.
