Is this the same controls as Dragon Nest?
sadly i have been searching for where to find a keyboard bind to swapping between the sub palette books. at least this place has a comment section to have me express this because i want to use all six sub palettes on the go
NO, unfortunately. Even if you switch to the Camera Mode, it might seem like you’re playing in first person, but your character would not aim for whatever it is in the center of your screen, it would still aim to where it’s currently facing.
So when your last keypress was “D” then the character would fire away to the right, and not to the monster attacking you in front. But when running, the character’s “forward” direction will follow that of the camera’s, which would mean that to aim properly, you’d need to press “W” and at the same time aim the camera at the target or, more easily, use the Lock-On targeting control keys (which I loathe, btw).
I regret to tell you this, but Dragon Nest is probably the only other mmorpg I’ve properly played so I’m not used to making my character face directions using the WASD controls. And since I’m used to DN’s first-person camera mode, I almost always forget that my character isn’t facing the direction that my camera is aiming at. I always get killed all the time. It annoys me a lot. Seems like I just need to get used to the WASD keys for aiming…or use the Lock-On key (sighs).
But anyway, other than that, the controls are pretty much standard and there’s not much to complain about. That’s all I could get from the little time I’ve spent on it. Might explore a bit more later though.
Cheers.
PS: I would hope that they’d think of including an option in the settings which would allow the character to face the direction that the camera is pointing to. That would balance the work for my hands better: less burden for my left hand, and more for my [light-burdened] right.
