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

[Raumarik]

Doesn't matter, can play either way. I tend to leave it at whatever setting it's on, even if I'm on a mates PC and he does invert it.

 

[Psymonkee]

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?

Nope, normal in GUI's

I bet there's money to be made research stuff like this....

 

[McBain]

No.

 

[m4rk84]

Invert is strictly for flying, how can anyone use it for FPS games? :/

 

[Zitron]

Not when using a mouse but I do invert when using a pad, which would only be for consoles since I'd never use a pad over mouse given the choice.

Inverted for everything! I would use my mouse upside down to invert my desktop mouse if it wasn't a stupid idea

 

[Caseh]

I don't invert, but it really doesn't matter - I'm possibly the worst FPS player in the world. I got beat the other day on Counter Strike by my 12 year old sister, that NEVER plays games.

I can't handle it non inverted, a game without that option would be unplayable. I reckon it was the starwing/starfox games which started it for me.

 

[Skully]

I don't use invert on PC, but I do when using a controller.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Inverted only for flying - Like you would do with flight controls.

Normal for FPS - Mouse movement across the screen as per normal desktop use. You wouldn't have it inverted for browsing the internet, why would you for FPS? It doesn't make sense to me.

 

[Clav]

FPS no, Flight yes

 

[Marky]

Only for planes or helicopters.

 

[ScarySquirrel]

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

This.

Invert on FPS? That's just weird. On flying games, sure, but on FPS's your crosshair is basically your mouse pointer.

 

[Fire_fly]

Only when flying.

Do people actually picture how their characters head is moving when playing or something? Inverted feels so wrong it goes against how the mouse moves on screen the other 90% of the time - im not holding some guy hostage by the head and making him look at who im killing, im just clicking on stuff....

Inverted here.... I can't remember which game it was now, but one of the very early ones had inverted mouse as standard and I played it sooooo much, and I just got used to it from there that when trying new games, I always had to invert the mouse.

 

[Paul_M]

like the majority normal for fps, and inverted for flying.

 

[Jono]

I've been inverted ever since Half Life - before that I used Arrow keys and no mouse. Then I've been a WASD convert. Don't know why I didn't think of it before.

I'm inverted in FPS with a mouse, but on console I can't do inverted. Weird.
With a mouse I really struggle if it's not inverted.

 

[BigChief]

always been inverted.

I'm left handed but use my mouse in my right hand. Probably explains a few things....

I'm weird which ever way you look at it!
