{Backsteps} {No Thanks}

U cannot just turn around and run way. If you do, you loose sight of the mob you loose targeting.
Also back stepping is great imo.
It is far more realistic than seeing a bunch of people fighting, running all over the place to reset themselves, when they could of just taken 2 slow steps back.
I liked it in FFXIV and I will like it in ARR.

Not if you play with controller. It will be terrible with controller. Backpedal is more a mouse thing.
If I want to run away with controller, the char should automatic turn around and run away without that I need to turn around the camera first. Have you stoped the time how much it need to turn the camera to 180° with controller?

I play with a controller and backpedaling is NOT more of a mouse thing.. Where do people come up with this nonsense?
You simply pres back and it feels 100% natural, if your hands aren't dyslexic..
Backing up does not make the camera turn.. It shouldn't and never did in ffxiv.
It only works when you are locked onto a target..

Do you guys have like dreams where these things are just so uberly cool, you have to make pointless topics about them?
