Setting to spawn facing in reverse


Recommended Posts

Ok, so me and other users have this strange habit of driving backwards. But since we start in straight position, we have to turn every time we span. This is ok for few times but it get quite annoying when you have to do this for 300-400 times in a long battle. So i propose an option in settings menu , which if we enable, will spawn our tank in reverse position. It will be like this

Many of us do that, but having this as a feature would be weird. As not a lot of people do it.. Its fairly common in XP matches though. :blink:

Well it's pretty easier driving and commanding turret at same time like this, simply I can't drive forward and then start diverging while still driving, and that's even more problem when I'm shooting. That's why Vulcan\Mammoth players use to drive backward often.

 

But I wouldn't add this as an option, sometimes you simply need to adapt.

Impossible with the new turret, and that could cause problems.

It would be a toggle-able option.

 

It would be useful when using Dictator or Wasp, as driving backwards allows you to peek around corners without exposing a large portion of your hull.

agreed. I'm used to turn my hull a trillion squared times instead of seeing this feature getting approved

I'm not trying to generalize here, but I'd wager 60% of Wasps drive backwards. Some Dictators do as well. This could be either a box to tick in the settings or garage, wherein the tank will spawn backwards with the turret facing the rear of the tank and control like normal otherwise.

 

Just consider it a tiny quality of life change.

I'll be honest, I didn't expect to have to find this topic again.

I do this with every hull really. It feels better to drive like that. 

 

I've been accustomed to driving forward and turning at the same time until I can drive backwards in a straight line so I'd keep it disabled.

I do this because my keyboard has ghosting when turning both turret and hull to the left while also going straight. Otherwise I'm fine with moving forwards.

This is useful for players that might have ghosting on their keyboard in my opinion.

Is this really the main reason? I mostly do it with hulls that have turrets placed near the rear of the tank so I expose less of my hitbox from behind cover.
