Poll: When playing an FPS - invert mouse or not?

[Secret_Window]

I used to play inverted in the old Quake 1 days too, but when HL1 came out I changed.

Always inverted.

Firstly from playing flight sims and stuff. But it's always seemed more logical for me.

Sort of imagine grabbing someone on the tuft of their hair, pushing forwards would make them look down, pulling back would make them look up.

Sounds about right

Never inverted. It feels horrible and unnatural.

Personal preference, fair enough!

I always invert it on the consoles, but never on PC.

cant stand inverted on kb/mouse or controller

 

[Secret_Window]

Funnily enough, I do prefer inverted when playing FPS on controller. Weird.

I use keyboard only, pgup to look up pgdown to look down. At least that`s how I used to play Quake

 

[Tattysnuc]

Nope, only time I use inverted controls is with anything to do with flying.

This

Mouselook? Noobs

Inverted is for flying, normal for anything else.

 

[Antar Bolaeisk]

Inverted is the sole domain of flight control, everything else is normal.

All you other inverted people are just weird

 

[Converge]

Inverted. I'm the only one of my friends to have this setting though

 

[mountaincow]

Inverted only when using a controller, or a flight stick obviously.

inverted mouse for FPS = mentally ill quite frankly

 

[MBennett]

Always inverted, first PC games was Euro fighter 2000 so maybe that set me up. Does seem the most logical way to me. For those who use one for fps and another for flying - seriously WTF? How can your brain be wired to think forward is down in 3d space for fps and then exactly the opposite for flying which is identical (moving in 3d space)?

 

[Swifty55]

Hell no...

 

[Curunen]

God no, I can't do that on a mouse.

 

[ChrisJSY]

The same reason I don't invert when using the OS.
Unless flying.

 

[dirtybeatfreak]

Urgh, can't stand inverted unless for flying!

 

[SheepBeast]

Just use standard - like using a mouse in windows.

It would feel weird if moving the mouse up in windows moved the cursor up but in game moved it (crosshair) down.

 

[Sin_Chase]

All you inverted types - What happens when you go to use game menus for Weapon selections/Load Outs/Continue buttons Etc etc?

Is it still inverted in the GUIs?

Inverted controls for fps? Wtf lol may aswell use WASD with my toes. If you're using inverted you're definitely doing it wrong.
