Can we please have an option to toggle cart movement between free movement and "driving mode"?

[Mr Fantastic]

Having to steer the cart is super painful, the cart can't even go in a straight line, just let us be able to move it normally like we move our character.

YES, god, the character has simple WASD movement exactly corresponding to the environment and then the vehicle suddenly changes into tank controls. WHY.

It's awful with controller as well. I was looking forward to zooming around but as the current controls are I'm never going to use the karts :(

No offense, but I think the carts are intended for racing with friends. If it's the same as character movement, there's no point but moving faster than running.

The point is moving faster. How about they make a toggle system? Then it can work for everyone.

Wouldn't that be evidence that they need to be tweaked?

dude everybody hates the go carts. i think they kicked us in teeth with go carts. its hard to believe that developers would be this disconnected with gamers. in fact, its unbelievable and i think they did it on purpose to make them better later.

[Mr Fantastic]

They should simply remake them as a land version of boats for us to move faster, that you can easily drive and use items and weapons.

I agree with this take. The karts were clearly designed as a toy to race around on specially prepared tracks, not a mobility tool. That being the case, having slightly abstruse controls makes it feel more interesting and unique than if it was just... walking, but faster.

Regardless of how the karts control, there are better options if your only objective is getting from point A to point B.

The game world is massive and exploration is a chore, players want mobility tools, not some lame racing toys that bring nothing to the game.

Racing toys would be fun if they didn't control like absolute garbage. If they're going to add vehicles, I would rather have a vehicle with a drill attached to it. The new biome is massive and the galaxite ore deposits don't spawn out in the open like other ores, they spawn inside the damn walls. So now instead of running around looking for deposits, I'm forced to slowly mine through walls. I mean, I know the premise of the game is mining, but this is bordering on the absurd.
