Who uses invert mouse for FPS games?

Wow, i have no idea how you could play with inverted. Suppose it wouldnt take long to get use to it tho!
 
Well I use arrow keys for some games, and random key bindings for others does this mean its old school or unique? no.
 
if it works for the player, it works for the player

personally i only use inverted in flight games where i cant be bothered to setup my joystick
 
I play FPS with normal mouse, yet i play world of warcraft inverted.

i played wow for over a year, then went back to CS, and it took me weeks to control it properly
 
Inverted feels so wrong for me.

Unless I'm flying some thing, like everyone else has said.

For consoles though it doesn't seem to make any difference which way round I have it (Joy stick wise)
 
I used to, when I first started PC gaming 6-7 years ago, the same way I also used to use the arrow keys in place of WSAD :D

Scort.

I used to actually play Quake with just the keyboard back then :p


I played all fps with just keyboard. arrow keys, ctrl to shoot, a and z look up and down, space to open and alt as straff. Then I found +mlook in quake and beat the game in nightmare :)
 
I played doom with keyboard only but as it wasnt proper 3d exactly and there was a kind of auto aiming I think, it was ok. You didnt have people flying through the air firing a gun like some terrible combo of rambo and bruce lee

I play everything inverted and its impossible to change back sorry. I guess it must come from flight simulators and joysticks on the older games.

Anyone who had experience with 3d previous to fps would have done it mostly in flight sims I guess since all the other games were 2d sprite based mostly.

I can remember flying between the metal strands of the golden gate bridge on f18 interceptor and of course there was the more arcadey f29.

Having experience with that made the inverted thing more comfortable to switch from keyboard to mouse and that was hard enough to do allready! I used to play at the local lan/internet cafe on doom 1 and the guy on the mouse trashed us badly

think about it. as you tilt you head forward, you look down. tilt your head back to look up. makes sense to me. :D

Spot on, inverted is the way to go.

Also agree with the Dark Forces 2 quote, that got me started.
 
I just dont understand how people can play with a non-inverted mouse.

Think about it, keep your arm lock in a single position while holding the mouse... now tilt back to look at the ceiling with your neck locked... which way does the mouse go? Down!

You pull back to look up and push forward to look down. Perfectly natural... possibly a thing that I couldnt shake having played Interceptor on the Amiga for sooo many hours.
