I've still to find a use for an inverted x-axis though, that one has me utterly stumped as to why devs would offer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had thought maybe some sort of ambidextrous then slapped myself hard after realising an inverted x is the same regardless of the hand you use (oo-er madam). It's weird because I've seen the option on a few games, and I've seen it on games that don't have controller support. I wonder if they just offer it because they can. When writing the code to reverse the axis they just hook it up to both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Obviously you invert, it's not even up for debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The public vote, which was jokingly introduced to have a "comical" third option does of course allows us the opportunity to ridicule those who don't follow a sensible path like us.

LiviLion Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Should only be inverting if you're flying a plane. Otherwise you should be on a register. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I dare say this is also an age thing - as bunglebonce said - some of us have been gaming for a very long time and I assume they have always taken the controls based on an aeroplane's control. Pulling down on the joystick to raise your altitude and pushing up to lower it. At some point I think the default setting was changed and those younger prefer non inverted and us oldies have stuck with inverted. I am a recent convert to non inverted. I prefer it now.

gkneil Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Always invert on a controller. I didn't vote in the poll though as I've never considered inverting my mouse!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54_and_counting Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 It purely comes down to what games you were brought up on, nothing else surely I didn't play many inverted y axis games, even on arcades up moved your guy up etc so ive always been non inverted, however guys who played games a lot that were inverted controls have obviously stuck with it They are clearly wrong but who are we to judge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
