Inverted controls are just better.
Inverted y? Yes.
Inverted x? Not really? Sometimes? Depends on the context?
I should have been more clear, I meant inverted y
ngl, if the game's control scheme has you control pitch and yaw with the mouse, then I find that it's all or nothing with control inversion.
For instance, in Space Engineers, if I move as the engineer, I prefer straight controls for pitch and yaw. But when I'm piloting, I prefer inverted pitch and can wrap my mind around inverted yaw.
I don't think I could adjust to inverted yaw for piloting, that's interesting.
why do you think so? (i’ve never thought about it before and am genuinely curious)
(Vertical Inverted) I see the joystick as my head. If I push it up forward (like my head), I'll end up looking at my feet and if I pull it backward, I'll be looking at the ceiling.
Imagining it as a camera also works.
But I'm stuck inverting the y axis because of flight games when I was a kid.
My 8 year old is y axis ambidextrous. He doesn't even notice which way it's set.
how the fuck--
Does that apply to using a mouse for a first person game as well?
Oh, I assume people are talking about controller here, I could never play inverted on a mouse/keyboard.
Probably, but I'm not sure. I've only ever used consoles or used USB/Bluetooth controllers for emulators.
Not for me, it's only on controllers.
To clarify I mean inverted y axis. It may just be that I started gaming with flight sims, but I see it less as tilting up and down and more like tilting forward and back. If you had a joystick on the top of your head and tilted it forward your head would start looking down. Likewise if you tilted it back your head would look up.
this makes a lot of sense. now i’m questioning why it’s not more common
I'm just happy there're options.
Fuck you
At least I know I followed the prompt correctly
What do you mean? I once tried to ride a bike with inverted steering. It sucks. I couldn't stay on longer than 2 seconds. Most people can't, although there are few who have managed to learn it.
After all, your comment matches the post.
