Re: Regular vs Inverted

Always Inverted - i just cannot get on with regular. Inverted seems much more natural to me. It's interesting to see how many people feel the same way, I guess that's why the option is there.

Re: Regular vs Inverted

Normal for me up=up etc inverted for flying thats normally the default setting.

You could argue what really is forward or up depending how you hold your controller whether you hold it vertical or nearly horizontal i hold mine personally somewhere between a 45º to 90º angle so up is definitely up for me.

Regular. Up is up and down is down.

Inverted. But playing Sly 2 It inverts X Axis as well which is strange :Confused: I only like Y Axis inverted and not happy that they removed the option to change either :smileysad: So now I'm playing BFBC2 like a spaz as well as Sly 2

Regular or normal for me unless I am flying something , but that can also depend if I am in or out of the cockpit

Re: Regular vs Inverted

I've always played inverted it does just feel more natural to me.

This is actually a question I've often wondered about, I haven't counted exactly but it looks about 60/40 to the normal guys, each to their own, I just really dont feel comfortable with normal controls.

Basically what the title of the thread says.

 

I have this personal view that the so called Inverted controls are the way it should be and that the so called Regular controls are in fact inverted.

 

My explanation for this is always to tilt your head back which would represent down on the controller, therefore making you look upwards. Tilting your head forwards, represented by up on the controller would in fact make you look down.

 

Makes sense right? So what I would like to know is... which control method do you use and why?

 

Regular vs Inverted, you decide!


 

 

Regular for me.

 

Your logic is slightly flawed though. Down on the controller represents directing your eyes down, not tilting your head back, thus down on the controller means looking down. E.g you're playing Cod and you push down on the right stick, you're directing your eyes down towards the ground.

 

This is actually a really interesting comparision because it brings out the way people interpret how the input on the pad links to the output in the game. 

 

The major issue I always had with inverted v regular is when flying planes, when pushing down on the stick should equate to pulling the flightstick towards you (thus lifting the nose), I've always played with it set up like that for games such as Ace Combat or Warhawk.
