Have you tried it on different servers?

You probably joined a "1st person only / 3rp person off" server.
Many have it in the server name now, either "3PP:ON" or "3PP:OFF".

While the third person perspective gives you a nice RPG feel, it also allows people to lay on rooftops, invisible to other players, while being able to scout the area and make out possible prey.

That is the main reason why many people prefer the "first person only / 3PP:OFF" servers.
