to get to the main subject here, well the new added combo-shift, isn't the location too packed?
I mean as a user of a azerty keyboard without extended numpad it was already hard to control with old system and harder with the new system, but adding a shift combo makes it much harder.
for ex a azerty keyboard:
.......1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
........A Z E R
..........Q S D
shift ......W X and not to mention to hold the mouse

how a person with 5 fingers can use it?

and not to mention u have to press W to go forward, so it's kinda unnatural to go forward u have to press bottom of keyboard the left and right keys on different lines. With the old system u could use A and W sometimes S with the numbers above and let the mouse do the rotation work after turning the camera and releasing the mouse button ( right). But now it isn't much possible anymore.

lol adrana kinda ironic how sayyadin could acctually just say: i dont like you...out!
and you would have to turn in your badge but you gave him a warning lol...
Well on topic..
I think this new system is acctually a kinda time waste. I would really not like yo use it and ventnor got about it all in his post..
If you, bacause of some annoying stupid reason, really would need to implement this...make it choosable.

We found another problem of player. Flying forward while watching back with the old system was done by using w+camera rotation. With the new steering you simply have to use s to fly forward and look back. You can even steer to the right and left without having to move the kamera again to adjust.
sayyadin, thats not the problem, it just works like hell, maybe we need to adjust, but its annoying to fly like this.
yeah just been back on ptr now to re test the steering and its still horrible, ship goes one way camera goes other way and mantis run off another way( and yes iv turned the auto camera rotate off ) its not bugged its just a bad design plain and simple

i agree, we want the old system back, the new design is just too quirky. i went back to the ptr and tested it again, it's still impossible to control with the intelligent camera, and as retro above me said, your ship goes one way, camera goes another...need to have 3 hands to control our ships with the new system, one for steering, one for camera operation, and one for everything else. Just keep to the old steering system, there's nothing wrong with it.

I do NOT like the new steering system. Just try to ab guys. If you use the mouse to change directions by clicking, you may click a mantis and so stop from using ab and be vulnerable to be shot down or stunned. If you use the arrows, the ship goes too much in the arrow direction and you lose precious time of the ab.

Hydroxyl, the steering isn't bad you had to adjust, but only the left [shift] key is bugged :(
