Normal or abnormal

  1. Normal non inverted (always the default option)

    76.5%
  2. Inverted Y (like a plane joystick)

    23.5%

    Just wondered whether we need an invert y option for our next fps game. So how many of you are normal people and how many are freaks of nature?

    Invert Y for sure. All good FPSs have them. Works much better

    You need to include options for both. It's been the standard since there was a y axis in FPS'.
    Personally I play with inverted controls.

    Options for both mate. Everyone is happy there. I prefer normal Y, unless it is a plane sim.

    Depends on game type. For anything where I'm a pilot (plane, spaceship, etc.) I need invert Y, anything else I don't want it.
     
  6. Just do it!

    Look out your window.
    I've used both in the past. Now I use normal always.

    But include it. It's gotta be included.
     
  8. Invert Y is what made the Jak and Daxter games so damn hard for me...but for some reason, it feels just fine in flying games.

    I used to invert and customize my keys - but it just got tedious to do all the time. Now I'm WASD default.

    You should include the option anyway. I use it in every game, most people I know don't.

    Did any of you have any deep emotional issues when you finally came out to your friends and family as an "inverter".

    Should people who invert be allowed to marry?

    I can't believe people play FPS games without inverting! Learn something new everyday!

    I don't hold guns the same way I hold a plane control stick :p

    ...except maybe mounted guns.

    Really? I can't stand inverted unless I'm flying.

    Hey my friends actually look at me with funny faces when I go to settings and choose 'invert Y' in shooters and stuff (I even like inverting camera controls).

    Too right! Your gun isn't on a pivot!

    Just a quick update.

    According to the poll the non inverts are clearly the superior master race however I have put in an invert Y option in indigo lake.

    Thanks for everybody's input.

    Add the option. I never use it but it's a simple addition that will make your game accessible for a few more people.
