I accidentally voted inverted.  I set my mouse up inverted to see what it was like, then moved the mouse up to vote Not Inverted, but it moved down instead and I clicked on the wrong one!

Okay, I uninverted my mouse for a while last night... No wonder they call it ergonomic! It's so much easier to control right-side-up and the laser doesn't burn my eyes!

::)  :P

So my axis was not inverted whilst playing Halo. I thought I could do it, since mouse pointer controls on the computer (not in game) are not inverted and I use mouseses all the time.

Driving was a little weird, but do-able. I had a hard time keeping the viewpoint in the middle, instead looking more at the ground or more in the air. But then I hit a rock (completely unrelated to mouse control) and flipped.

ROFL! I could not look straight ahead to save my life! Indeed, if xplora was a better chase killer, I would have been dead. I kept looking straight up at the sky or, when I finally moved the mouse down, I was looking right at the ground and couldn't look up again.

Worse, my mouse hand/wrist/arm was feeling weird because the view wasn't going where I felt like I was directing it. My brain was having a hard time with up = up and my hand wasn't cooperating. All the unexpected and (what felt like) uncontrollable movement on-screen kicked up my motion sickness and I was getting dizzy and nauseous.

There were three of us in the server and, while I can't play uninverted for long, it was fun for one lap on Danger Canyon. ;D

I agree with the whole "only for flight" thing - so it's quite useful that the Banshees default to that anyway.
I don't feel like I could get used to anything other than up=up. Doesn't feel natural.
Means that I have to change the settings every time I go round someone else's to play Halo 3 tho. Can get a bit irritating.

I don't use inverted mouse controls, though I'm inverted all the way in Halo 3.

I play not inverted on Halo, but it depends on the game. If it has something to do with flying around (not in a banshee :P) it seems more realistic to me to use inverted controls.


Thank you Tanger!

Why would you want inverted anyway? Why use a system that makes up down and down up?
