New steering discussion

[MAup]

Instead of the thread in praise and rage section, i would like this to be a serious discussion about the new steering system.
If you want to swear and just go mad about it, use the other section.
(no droprate will be discussed)

First off, its good to see that new things is made and new ideas are flowing.
Some may like the new system, some may not.

When i first started playing this game, i found the controls be a somewhat strange.
after the update, im now wondering what new players will think.

in my own opinion i dont like the update very much, i love the part of being able to stop the ship, but thats about it.
I have never heard ayone say anything about having the steering system changed or complained bout it, in fact, when i got used to it, i realy liked it (the old system).
Now you just may think that its a matter of getting used to things, but not in this case i am afraid.

lets keep this a clean and open discussion and give them YOUR opinion.

Well personally I love the new steering system, it's a little more hands free than the only one but both are good in their own right. It's true no one really asked for it but at least they put in a choice between the old and new steering. I think it's great either way, it is more about getting used to it than anything and peaople are just more comfortable with the old one. Even I'#ll admit I am but the new system rocks, I love it I just gotta get used to it.

I also think it makes things more interesting cuz with teh new steering techniques I have to come up with I'm not much better than the vega newbies now lol. I like it.

How come no-one understand the "old steering system" is not as it was..the only thing similar to the old is that u move the camera first and then the ship follow..But you cant drive even somehow properly with it...and most of all grinding is wicked now!

b4 when u got inters after you they stacked up behing you coz you were always moving...Now they stay AROUND you so in order to get them behind me i'll have to go FULL speed for 5 meters, miss my location and fire rocketsinto a group of scattered enemies..

I've been trying the new steer system after the hotfix and it's working slight better now, i can even drive on hive with it lol.I guess i'll have to get used to it..

Anyway: Those saying that the old system is still there and possible to use as b4 are liers and will be punished in hell...

I have the settings like you suggested, but still the steering is not the same as it was. I use W and mouse for steering. When I fly I can't look behind me coz my ship will turn around then, which is very annoying. I really don't understand why that changed. The old steering was fine, never heard someone complaining about it. I am not against new features, but this is a downgrade imao.

I hope this can be changed so I can watch my butt.

Really? I tried that and it is not the same. It is sluggish and your ship does not respond in the same way it used to. It just feels all wrong. Fail.

I don't know if you're misunderstanding it or not. The bottom line is were not saying do this and you will have the "exact" same steering system like you had a couple days ago. These are just some suggestions to help you adjust to the new steering system. Now again I know a lot of people are not happy about the new steering system, but there are people who like it. The whole point of me saying that is because some people have not tried both of the ways because they don't know they could change it by going to settings. What Astraeus is trying to say is, again not saying do this and you will get the old steering back, but just throwing out what works for him thinking it might be helpful to others and maybe they can use it. To all the people who misunderstood me because I didn't make my self clear on the last post, I apologies.

Hi
Just wanted to say i hate the new ("old") flying system. It dosnt work anywhere near as well as before the update. I thnk what mite be messing it right up is the ship trying to turn and face targets? But saying that its messy wen im not even targeting anything.
Facing targets is rubbish anyway - it dosnt make sense - you can fly about and shoot out the sides and back still - but wen it feels like it it faces the target... Why?.. It was much better before, eveytihing flowed nicely.

Whatever the case can you please give us the option of using the exact old system?..

I giv u an example - i tried to ab past sum asasins and because the ship was facing the other way wen i pressed the forward arrow key it abd miles in th oposite direction to what i wanted it to.
It is seriously sluggish to respond, and sumtimes it just dosent bother to at all.
I use mouse and arrow keys.

Let the people who like the new system use it and the ones that dont use the old system - AS IT WAS...

Its true that you dont apreciate wot uv got til its gone.
Please - Sort it out! lol
