Hey everyone, was just wondering how many people on these boards invert the y axis when they play a fps like Destiny. I know I do. I'm not sure why. I figure way back when I played some shooters a la Goldeneye and Timesplitters that had inverted look and got used to it from there. If there's no invert option I'm not going to waste time trying to play that shit - it's just too annoying. Some random indie game on PS Plus they've got for free right now had "regular" look locked in and I deleted that bullshit post haste.
Out of curiosity, give me an age when you respond. Are old weathered turds more likely to invert? I asked my clanmates this question several months ago as they are all ancient and most of them didn't. I'd like a broader sample size so thanks for reading and responding.
Edit:thanks for the responses everyone! I'm 44 myself. If you're old or wizened-at-heart and in need of a clan and you're on ps3 or ps4, check out Rise of Old Dudes. Even though most of those ancient dorks don't have the common sense to invert.

Inverted , and im 35 . All the younger guys i play with think its hilarious . It was from all the flying games early on
-
1 RespuestaNot sure why default is not inverted ...mad I have to change it
-
I'm 33, and I have NEVER inverted in a shooter. I can't handle it. Even when I'm flying in a game, I find it easy to fly with inverted controls, but as soon as I have to aim a weapon, I lose the ability to function.

19 and ive been playing inverted since 14

1 RespuestaStarfox on the SNES got me into the habit of playing games with inverted controls....... soooo much Starfox that summer. I'll be 35 soon
-
I have played every FPS ever with an inverted look stick. It makes no sense to me otherwise. I can't do a thing.

1 RespuestaEditado por IMADAJ: 5/13/2015 4:18:52 AMInverted 38 I used to play the flight simulators on the Apple ][e so the inverted controls took hold of me. I've played with inverted ever since. In RL you tilt your head back to look up. You tilt your head forward to look down. Playing with controls that mimic that feels more natural to me. (And I've taught my kids how to play using inverted controls too)
-
I also play inverted.... I'm 32 and it seems like the majority are slightly older that play inverted
-
I always play inverted. Just feels natural, if you look down in real Life you tilt your head in the same direction as your Stick with inverted y-axis. That helped me adopt to alog sticks when the mechanic was introduced. I'm 31.

1 RespuestaJust makes sense to invert to me. If you think about standing behind your guardian, our using them as a puppet, you would need to pull back on their head to make them look up. Been doing it since Golden Eye 30yrs old
-
57. Always inverted. I think it's from playing the flight simulators
-
This is hilarious. I've been doing this since I started playing fps'. I'm 33 now. Sometimes when my gf or my kid are playing destiny on the other console with me, I'll have to go in there and help out. As soon as I grab the controller, I'm just like "wth?! No invert? How can you play this like this? ?" *switch*
-
I invert. 36 years old. I can't play them the "normal" way .
-
i invert b/c it helps me keep my aiming and my movements separate in my brain. started on halo 1. 30 years old...
-
Personally, I don't. But I remember when my Dad and I would play Halo 1 on the Xbox all the time and he always played inverted. From what I'm reading seems like a lot of the last generation does it. I'm 18 by the way.
-
I'm not a plane! I'm a peacock, you gotta let me fly!
-
Best line after the no...

1 RespuestaI don't understand why inverted was every an option. No hate to the people that use it but what advantage did it used to give? Never played goldeneye
-
Editado por S4TRI4NI: 5/12/2015 8:24:40 PMI always inverted, but decided to get use to normal when pads where handed around for your turn. I got use to normal and cant play inverted now lol Oh I'm 35 lol
-
19 Unless I am flying something, get that crap away from me. Most of my original fps experience comes from halo 2.
-

-
