@CloudLevi Actually, their controls are a lot like an aircrafts, and makes sense. In an airplane, the pedals control the rudder on the tail, which can laterally move the aircraft. For helicopters it is used to turned in place. So going from that to a torso twist makes pretty good logical sense.
@CloudLevi This is the setup for the basic control system. You can change the setup in-game to allow for torso twisting, which uses the pedals to handle movement.
Only gripe I have is the control scheme... 1.) I like having 3-6 different weapon slots... 2.) I can't effectively use the default turn and twist...it makes no sense to me...joystick controls the freelook...pedals are run by your feet...so they should run the feet...I find it irritating that the people who developed the controls didn't think of that point of logic.

@brfatal1 Yeah, they reworked the pods to use MW4.
