What the heck's wrong with the control settings

[Wudidengzhiwei]

Me on PC just bought few days ago and playing Vice City DE at the moment.
Generally good, better than original. But one thing, the helicopter control on PC keyboard settings is awful, and even the worst part is there is no key bindings to helicopter's rotation.
I wonder if the developers had really ever played the original game? How come it just cannot be the same with the original game's control settings?

Right, forget what I said. It's actually not TOO BAD if you get used to it.
Still sucks comparing to the original version's helicopter control settings though.

Not too bad, but not good. I played Brown Thunder for a while the other night, and did well enough to get accustomed, but boy was it easier when you could just spin around and zap the next bunch.

Flying helicopters was the one thing I loved the most about GTA: VC, but keyboard-and-mouse ruins it. Walking and shooting, give me keyboard and mouse. Driving a car, I'd pick up the controller sometimes, some races. Flying, controller, every time, without question.

I'd love to see full controller support in the definitive editions, but I think that ship has sailed,

I do absolutely NOT understand why they did not include that! The weirdest thing is, they did include rotation/yaw for the planes! WHY?

I was flying like a god in the original! I could land a helicopter anywhere really fast with the original controls!

Now I have to fumble around with the mouse and it is not even half as controlable as before! Flying the hunter for the vigilante / brown thunder mission is just the worst. I ended up using the tank instead.
