Nyarlathotep Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 In a game that pushes me to maintain situational awareness, i constantly crave the ability to hold down a shortcut key which lets me temporarily mouselook moving only my head [allowing me to trudge on forwards using the arrow keys] Its certainly not a gamebreaker, but it would make the experience so much richer, tbh, atm, I'd even settle to just have 'q' and 'e' keys toggle the twisting of my head left/right as a bandaid solution.

SteelFire Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I can definitely get behind the desire for a free-look mode, though this hasn't been an issue for me. Personally, when I want to look around while walking in one direction, I just use multiple arrow keys to keep me moving in the original direction. It's just habit at this point, because I don't think I've played and FPS that had free-look. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyarlathotep Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 Yeah, thats what i currently do in TLD. edit: it makes me feel like i have a neck brace on though, lol I have played ARMA series, and that is another game highly demanding of situational awareness [for different reasons] and in light of that, it just makes so much sense to me, to have it in TLD. It opens up your perspective giving you an expanded feeling of space, and would make these beautiful environments they have spent so much time on, so much richer.

Kaisentlaia Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I never really felt the need for a free look mode until I tried one of those smartphone-powered vr headsets... oh man how awesome would be having the chance to look around you keeping the walking direction unchanged!

Mewee Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Great idea! Also would be great pick up things while hero is moving. Gathering wood sticks will be much comfortable, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kauffy Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I would like to play this game in VR, but I don't really have a problem looking around in any direction while maintaining my general movement direction by using a combination of movement keys. I do this automatically without even thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you were referring to movement keys alongside mouse movement, your 'general movement direction by using a combination of movement keys' and mouse, will be a mere 180 degree turn at some point if you keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JErosion Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I just strafe as I walk especially if i hear a bear or wolves baying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
