Re: Mouse control not fit for purpose

dear EA_Tom

• Which flight games have you played with mouse/keyboard?
• What is your preferred mouse control method in other flight games (e.g virtual stick, virtual stick with automatic reset to center, etc.)? Do you play first or third person with that scheme?
• What are your mouse DPI settings in squadrons?
• Are you playing with any other special hardware? (VR, ultra widescreen, multiple monitors, etc.)
• What are your sensitivity and mouse screen range settings in squadrons?
• Are you having any issues with the current mouse controls? If so, what are the issues?
• Are you specifically having any issues with mouse sensitivity or deadzone?

1:war thunder , its f2p,and definatly the top notch of flight game with mouse controlls here is a good example vid from mouse steering, starts at 6:15

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FIONDpQbHs   as u can see there, the crossair is just for orientation, that u have a point where your shots would end up when u start shooting

u can play it as flight stick, normal mouse controll ( where the plane is not following any dot/curser or arrow ) and it is with a "reset" when u stop moving the mouse.

its like this : hen i want to fly up, i have the crosshair. so the crossair goes up at the same time the plane goes up. but the plane is not following the crosshair, its following the mouse.its like keyboard input with a reset when u stop pressing a key.it instantly stops .u can play in cockpit mode, and 3rd person, while 3rd person is definatly more usefull and helpfull because u can see more.aditionaly u have a mouse view, ex: if u press c u can scroll arround with mouse, to view arround your plane, untill u stop pressing c

at the contig u can change basicaly every part of the setting in case about axis, how soft, fast,slow,wide u have to sroll to move the plane.it has a dead zone u can adjust like u want.

u have to test this game , to see by yourself  what mouse aiming is in this game, its hard to explain.

3:i change the DPI settings on my mouse via button from the lowest 250 up to 10000 as i need it, and as i can play with it. i also can adjust it in 50dpi steps.

4: as for other hardware, no, nothing spezial on my side

5: atm i have 0% sensi, and 100% screen range, to get a slower more smooth and easier to center steering.

i tryed it for days with different  settings like 50% sens, and 50 screen range and higher.

screen range to leww = the ship is uncrontroll able, and wobbling like hell cant even hit capital with this settings, even with  the lowest DPS settings on my side than.

if the sens is to high its the same.i turn with the ship, and are not able to center it anymore, because its wobbling like hell, even if i take my hand of the mouse.

the fact that the ship is following a dot, and overshot the dot before it centers ( even with pressing the center button ) makes it unplayable

the issues are not the sens or dadzone. its the fact the mopuse steering is like controllinng a ship on the ocean.....u turn left.. it turns left . and wont stop turn left, unless u turn to the opposide direction.and it wont center if u take your hands of the ruder  at all.....

the best way to undertsand it is by watching the vid, and trying to play WT with mouse by yourself u will be suprised what is possible with mouse^^ thats a promiss
