    Backpedling is TERRIBLE!

    Q17: What is a "Legacy Config" option you selected?

    A17: It refers to a configuration wherein players will be able to set their controls and movement method similar to how they were in 1.0. For example, turning and running instead of backpedaling.
    There, hope the people complaining about this can now rest at ease. At least over this feature. For more detail, Watch this video.

    This thread was only created to get some apologies or at least people admitting they might have been over reacting, just a tad.



    People who admit to this will receive a free one of these.

    EDIT!!!

    It was supposed to be funny... Sorry my sense of humor sucks. I even provided popcorn!

    Yay! they fixed it was the message to take from this. I hope no one seriously thought I expected any kind of apology for providing feedback...

    Did you not stop to think that its precisely because of people complaining that this was added?

    OH MAH GEEE (I think criticism is important at every stage but I guess people can disagree at that, or "how" people give their criticism)



    I'm glad they offered a solution to backpedling - I kind of expected they would but w.e its always nice to see it actually happen.

    Also Popinator is amazing, I want to change the keyword to something like a person's voice. They just start talking and the thing unloads all the popcorn at them until they shut up lol

    It's human nature unfortunately for them to jump the gun. Ignorance? Yes, I do think people need to calm down at times. The graphics thread where they said it looked cartoony when it was a pre alpha build but look at it now, it looks amazing. In short, people just need to be patient.

    Im glad we have choices back peddling was fine if in battle and locked on. But for normal traversal of terrain I like to run toward the camera most times. Would I have quit if they didnt offer this? Heck no but again nice to have choices.

    Did you not stop to think that this might have been the plan all along and people just over reacted to a clip of a game that was still being developed? "This game is still in development and subject to change"

    Lol this was mostly a satirical way to let people know they have fixed it, hence me providing popcorn for all those who come here!

    I don't mind backpeddling at all, but only if I'm locked onto a target which IMO makes sense. I wouldn't want to turn my back on something I'm fighting if I'm engaged into the fight. Now if I want to run? Heck yeah turn tail and book it!!

    So basically backpedal only when locked onto targets (any target: friendly, foe, or inanimate object) and turn and run any other time.
