  • But why would roll be inverted? For planes you just need to think about the fact you are controlling the airplanes pitch not the camera view, which is why my camera controls are always regular in flight games but then obviously the y axis for flight is inverted. Pitch left roll left, pitch right roll right, pitch forward go down, pitch back go up. I.e. If you tilt the plane to the left it rolls to the left, if you tilt it to the right it rolls to the right, if you tilt the plane back it changes the attitude of the flight path to bring you higher same thing in reverse for pitching forward. I agree with your last statement for fps/tps games though unless both are inverted for camera it just doesnt make any logical sense and instead are trying to map flight controls to a head which just completely looses me.



  • Here is the comment I was replying to which was calling out the natural talent portion stating its only about their money and training to get in and max just isnt the one to try and prove that with:

    Try watching F1 and hearing “natural talent” in the context of men who had done 30,000 hours of karting before they could walk. Max Verstappen was built from the ground up to be a racer. I don’t think these people are bad, but they definitely have it easy going up against one of the smallest playing fields in all of sports.

    They were specifically calling out max stating he doesnt have natural talent besides his parents money. Max is not a great example from the grid for that, he won the natural talent lottery and rich parents lottery that allowed him the ability to compete and use that natural talent. Almost every single person on the grid has had the same training and time to practice as max has had yet no one really can drive like he can.

    Like the last portion of my comment stated f1 is obviously a rich man’s sport, there isnt any denying that but you can have an easier time demonstrating that by calling out anyone but the generational talent that made it in, like idk cough cough lance stroll. If money wasnt a factor you would get more talent like max in the sport but we can acknowledge that max has the talent to back his position even if in that sport money is what will be the ultimate deciding factor on whether you can even sit at the table to prove it.


  • Eh I think you would have a bigger point with someone like lance stroll, max definitely has a massive edge from all the karting but he is objectively someone with a natural talent that got those additional competitive advantages which has set him up to be a once and a generation type driver. Plus I kinda feel bad for max when you hear about the stories of his dad vicariously living through him as a kid and pushing him till his hands were cold and numb on the kart giving him like a 5 minute break to warm his hands slightly and then have him continue to do laps. But yeah modern f1 is a good example of a rich man’s sport, the shear cost to get to the point of just the feeder series disqualifies so many people who could compete and be rivals to the likes of max but due to not having the funding from a young age they are just completely ineligible to even try to compete.
