I'm not sure if it's a bug or if it's deliberate or if I'm overlooking something, but I find controlling the mantas to be very difficult, such that there have been a few times I've taken over one in order to get it away from danger as quickly as possible only to accidentally fly it into the ground instead!
I use both a mouse and keyboard and a 360 controller for gaming, as I find that usually if I have time, I'll switch from mouse and keyboard when flying to a controller because I generally find it easier, however in most games I am at least proficient enough with a mouse and keyboard for flying if say my controller has switched itself off or I'm a co-pilot and my pilot gets killed or whatever to get myself and the vehicle to safety.
Here is the issue though; In Carrier Command, there appears to be one button which chooses how inversion of the controls works but it doesn't work properly in my mind. On one setting, moving the controller stick down and moving the mouse up will both point the manta skyward, on the other setting, moving the controller stick up and moving the mouse down will both point the manta skyward.
Why aren't they either A, independent settings so you can have them both be whichever way you want them to be, or B both on the same setting - so that moving the stick down and pulling the mouse down will both point the manta skyward?
They're opposites so the mouse is "right" and the joypad is "wrong" or vice versa.
It's silly!
