Anyone else reluctantly switched back to tank controls?

[Greasy Roy]

Half way through the 2nd game and the tunnels of the underwater ships have broken me, or more to the point, the camera. Really hope they fix the modern controls and tank controls are very sluggish

Modern controls was made to introduce you zoomers to a proper game. Theyre not broken, they work. They made you play the game it was meant to be.

the tank controls are the best choice because the level design was designed with them in mind ...however the modern controls are very good as well

[Cap'n Crud]

Tank controls with the d-pad for me. Not only was that how I originally played it so the "modern" controls feel very unnatural, but the modular geometry of the levels and the tank control scheme were built around each other and d-pad is always easiest for me with tank controls for some reason.

What really annoys me with Original (tank) controls is how garbage they are using the stick(s). Pretty daft you run around and start turning and at a few degrees Lara stops running and starts to rotate, while on d-pad this newer happen.
I really do not like playing on d-pad
Guess i could try to go back to keyboard, like i originally played the 5 TR games.

I already switched back after a few levels of Tomb Raider I. The tank controls just work much better with this game.

Actually, I don't even know how the modern controls work, I've been playing this with tank controls from the start.

And I LOVE tank controls.

I only tried few levels with the modern controls before i went back to tank.

Its a nice idea but useless until it is fixed. Main problems are the combat lock on not working properly and the camera going insane.

The camera has some issues on tank controls as well but since the controls are not camera controlled it doesn't screw you over like it does with modern controls.

I had no issues finishing TR1 using modern controls. I died a lot, but that is more on my skill than on the controls. Almost every time I died I knew what I did wrong. Only a few deaths were caused by the camera freaking out which was frustrating but that is why we save often, right?

Considering the original TR1 had like 5 save spots per level ... at consoles you did not save as often as one can wish for.

I tried the modern controls for all of about 5 minutes and noped right back to tank controls.

Sure, tank controls feel even clunkier than they did when I was a kid playing TRII, but they're still preferable to the nightmare that is this game's "modern" controls. I don't uderstand why there's even an option. Just make the controls the same as the PS1 version, but add "modern" movement to the left analog stick, and free camera to the right analog stick.

And that's coming from someone who played REmake HD, RE0 HD, and Tormented Souls with modern controls for 99% of the game. Only ever switching to tank controls, which was as simple as moving my thumb to the d-pad, when there was a particularly awkward camera transition.

'Switched back?' - haha! I play only with tank controls. I didn't even consider modern controls as an option.

They're a lot more fluid IMO it's the camera that can't comprehend them

I found that when the camera freaks out you just middle mouse (view) and then middle mouse again and it usually fixes it.

[barakehforever]

I play only on Tank controls, I sometimes switch for modern in levels I already beat for the free camera

[nelvus]

Reluctantly? No.
