Back Paddling is horrible.

[Thebard]

Agree. i hate backpadling aswell.
Also how are u gonna see your character's face ever.
like taking screenshots with your ls and stuff is gonna be past....

If thats not sarcasm then I pity you.

Pretty much lol

I honestly just hope that there is an option that you can select in the 'character movement' section or something like that where you can select:
When pressing the "move back key" have character model:
*backpedal
*turn around

problem solved?

Cuse i like seeing my charactyer's pretty awesome face? you'd want to see your character's face too if it was as beautiful as mine.

"back pedaling" is a natural movement in real life.. (especially in combat)

so why it shound be ingame? tell me more..



and i know MANY MMorpgs who work like that.. Dark Age of camelot etc... and the movement is good.. i say why shouldnt i walk backwards with my character?



it would look handicapped if i only were able to walk forwards... or are you doing like that in real life? JUST walking forward?

strange opinions around here..
hopefully Yoshi p. wont listen to those "shitty" voices and creates a NEW game, with MANY differences in comparison to 1.0.


LET 1.0. FUCKING GO! God damn..

Really? well since u wanna hear more imma tell you.
In FFXIV you could be normally walking in any direction when outside of battle but also lock on the target when in combat mode and backpaddle or whatevs it's called. now in ARR backpaddling is an ALWAYS ON effect. you can't really turn it off and turn your camera around your character. the character will turn around with the camera and you will allways bee seeing his back.
Did you get this?
read carefully please.

What lol? Not true. You can always turn the camera any way you want if you're just hanging out with LS/FC members or whatever. You'll see your face often if you want to..

As far as backpedalling it's actually easier and gives you more control. Using the right mouse button to turn quickly and precisely is something that might take getting used to for some people but once you got it, you'll find that it's an easier way to control your character. I want to say 'in my opinion' cause everyone's different but I don't think it's something you could dislike once you get used to it. Maybe I'm wrong but when you learn how to do it efficiently, it's not going to hinder you.

But on PS3 I can't see this being a great thing at all. That's a different story because you can't do a 180 instantly like you can with a mouse. Your camera will move at a certain speed no matter how far you're pushing that right thumbstick. They'll be at a disadvantage especially in PvP no matter how you look at it. Nothing you can really do about that.. It's a matter of controls.

Well so far all vids i have seen from alpha when he turns his camera around the character always turns too. I aint in Alpha so i only see what they show in the vids.

Not really bud. I'm just not dead serious about shit matters that are lollable

The right mouse button held down turns the camera and the character. Left mouse button only turns the camera. It's like most current MMO's.

Ahh that's sweet.
I can see my purty mouf in ARR aswell then.
I haven't seen it in a vid so far and i aint in Alpha so I didn't know,
Also I didn't see it in any other MMO cause I don't do other MMOs.

Now, c'mon all you grown ups, let's go in the other room and discuss those super cereal issues we where discussing in this forum before that child came along and spoilled it for us. (lulz)
