i know the feeling, but notice that i don't lean with the mouse/keyboard. used to with the stick all the time in previous MW titles, and even when i try (again and again) to get the stick to work here without analog... (sigh) but it's just not the same.

No I don't.

But do I flinch when a light mech I'm in is getting hit by curtains of LRMs? You bet.


I find my toes curl up when i see a sky full of lrms or 3-4 ac rounds streaking towards me. i dont tilt when using keyboard/mouse but my hands are all over the place when using ps3 controller (like its strings on a puppet or something).

When things get intense, I start leaning. A lot...

Not only do I lean, but I move my head to dodge incoming projectiles.

Yup, I lean. I've also noticed that if my tongue peeks out the side of my mouth that I can turn even faster. :D

Yes. I also flinch and scream like a woman when i'm taking damage, and shake my fist at the screen and roar in impotent fury when facing streakcats. This is due to my fervent belief that the opposing player can see my offensive gesticulations from their cockpit, which is why I wear a kilt when I play, so I can wave my junk at my enemies (because if anyone knows how to intimidate an enemy, it's a ******* scotsman).

Also, if i'm panicking, my hind-brain takes over mouse duty, because everyone knows that the more times you click in a second, the faster your weapons recharge.

I like the fact that i'm able to flick a switch in my head that allows me to completely disassociate my self with reality.Some people think I have a problem (my wife, pfft). In reality, i'm just your average nerd. You guys all do this, right?

Right?

Same ... damn MMOs. It's a habit that is hard to break (no pun intended)
