Sorry but......
« on: April 25, 2011, 06:32:08 PM »
I like most of the new updates, thanks HT and staff....but the A S D W controls for gv's, well how to put it.....is tough on us  :old: guys who don't have nimble fingers. I play this game cuz we had j/s for everything, now its kinda gone the way of XBOX and PS3. I don't play cuz of them stupid buttons you have to push. My vote is to have either A S D W or j/s. Also the sighting on the tanks has been DUMBED down, almost like F3 mode for bombers. Just my 2 cents worth :neener:

It doesn't really make sense to me that you shouldn't be able to have each axis correspond with the related key (x axis for for ad and y axis for sw).
Or, have sw correspond with a throttle and ad correspond with rudder. The awsd thing is kind of corny in my opinion as well.
That said, I don't really see how the sighting system has been dumbed down.

Seems to me like GV'ing may actually be fun now.

You can still map the W,A,S,D keys to a 4 way switch on your stick in mode 2. works good like that.

How have the sights been dumbed down? No more 40x zoom and the same sights for every tank?  


tiger and panther can now do zero radius turn.. tiger will probably be worth the price again (if yer engine runnin, slow turret traverse is no longer too much of a handicap).  if anything, learning the new tank sights is something to have fun with.

For me the new sight system allows you to "fine tune" your shots much better while using the mouse and in the gunner position.

You can also map an analog control to "Sight Range" in mode 2 if you do not like using the mouse

The old DOS computers weren't "broke", yet we have made incredible advances since then.  The "it ain't broke don't fix it" argument is rather neanderthalistic.
