- can't shut off mouse control in tanks, the new mouse control feature isn't really fully developed yet (to put it mildly
)
- new gunsights in tanks as well as the ability to pivot are big step forward, but the rest of the new GV system (mouse view control from commander position, getting rid of driver position / interior graphics) is just crap.
Heya Lusche, can you go into more detail why you think it's crap?
I just GV'ed for the last 30 minutes and it's the most fun I've EVER had in a GV. The new mouse control feature, after mapping the controls, was accurate/smooth and intuitive (in my opinion). The different tanks having different zoom levels, and using the mouse wheel to "range find" in the Panzer was also very entertaining. The part I enjoyed the most was the fact that I was able to be MOBILE while in the midst of a battle, changing speeds, angles, directions, using commander view to find an enemy, hitting F2 to get into "gunner's mode", scroll wheel to range find, and fire. All at the same time. It was a huge improvement in fun (again, my opinion) to what my normal GV experience was, which tended to be drive to spawn (offensive or defensive), find hiding spot, set gun view to max zoom... look for enemy and fire. Not looking down on your opinion, just genuinely curious as to what about the old system you found preferrential and why. =)
