Does any one use mouse view/look in the game?

HiTech

No,  and i use mouse and keyboard for everything.  I think other guys using mice use the keypad for views as I do.  I hope this doesnt change much.

We are no longer the AW generation who reveled in digging for answers in our games while keeping print outs next to the keyboard.

I still have my 3-ring binder that I made in 2007.  GEEK ALERT  :bolt:

Yes. When scouting for cons (on autopilot) in fighters. Most of the time in bombers and always as a gunner.

Do you use a mouse as a flight controller too?  This should be the question.  Who that uses a mouse for flight control uses it for views also?  Assuming you are trying to draw a crowd using a cheaper alternative to play the game.  I might be off track here...

Yes, I have been using mouse view from day 1 and would be incredibly upset if something happened to it.  :(  :salute

I do. I dont use it a ton, and i dont for combat, but I use it to scan around, fly formation or use it as a "sticky" view so I don't have to hold down my hat switch.

If I may make a suggestion... I use mouse views with a laptop mouse pad, with that said, adding a mouse "smoothing" slider along with the current X/Y sensitivity sliders would be greatly appreciated by anyone using mouse views with a traditional PC mouse.  :pray

No, I have a twisty stick I use, but when I first started my old stick did not have a hat switch and was forced to use a mouse. Now it is just habit I guess.

Ive heard warthunder is configured to help mouse users,  but have yet to try it.  I hope whatever is the "default" is easier for someone using a mouse to understand, for the sake of "ease of use"  :cheers:

If you use a mouse for plane control,  I dont see mouse view toggle being easy any way you crack the egg.
