Legs don't have this limitation, and would control as they do in game, I think.
Well... for me those legs do not differ from tank tracks. Can they strafe? No. They move only foward and backward. They can't even jump
but thanks for answering anyhow

Riktor Voshek: it works not only in WoT, but in any game... matter of fact I would have to install MW4 to check it out, because I don't remember there was this "legs behavior". Yes it's more car-like.
BattleMech is quite often reffered as tank with legs. I'm sorry, but those legs are just instead of wheels or track. They can move only foward and backward. No other function. It's cool that way, but nothing practical
You are quite strict to what manual say. I want to push Backward and Left I go Backward and Left. Change "Rotate Chasis Left" into "Turn Left (or Move With Legs Left)" and we are good to go
No magic happens. Just lesslogic and more user-friendly.
I get your point (but I don't agree with invert-backward-mouse argument), but it's just an option, not a crusade against simulation-uniqe-mech-contols.
So don't get annoyed, sit back and relax
If dev's will listen, maybe both of us will be happy
I've just checked how is in WoT. It's indeed "inverted" while riding backward. BUT, thing is: I didn't noticed this un-logic even after a year of playing WoT, and I didn't found strange behavior of my tank, that "torso should rotate left because maual say so".
My opinion is: more user-friendly and probably more popular is "unlogical" backward movement (measurment by succes of WoT). Movement as it is is more "realistic" but it's opposite in most of games.
Maybe on joystick it's not an issule... don't know.
I can get used to it, no problem, but it would be nice to have an option (like invert mouse).
edit:
but to trully be honest... I never drove a tank. But from I know, designers of tanks are trying all effords to make it closest to driving a car (to any ***** in tank could drive it).
If I step accelerate-pedal in tank, ale turn T-weel left, it should turn left. Right track is rotating faster, left track is at stop/slower/moving backwards.
If I change gear, to reverse, and turn T-weel left... what you expect?
