WASD or NOT?

[ArcadeVault]

Simple question, but deal breaker.

In the description it says you can avoid every single attack - that would mean wasd for me, like Battlerite, Dead Island Epidemic, etc.

But if it's movement is a clickfest moba control, iam out.

Abilities used to be (and in screenshots are) bound to QWER which would mean that you move only by mouse

[Nekochi]

You can even avoid every single attack with Mouse Clicking...
Sounds like skill issues

[Nightfall]

I used controller but it doesn't really work with looting. Wouldn't play it any other way. So I'll be sitting this one out until they fix controller issues

[smokratez]

oh yeah, it has to be wasd. Don't want rsi.

Were you able to use a controller? What did you think of it?

it was ok but needs more work for sure

Wait they took out the original mouse movement for WASD????? Why???? The whole appeal was this game would play like a MOBA now you switch to that and try to pull in who? Guys who still play battlerite.....makes no sense. Why not appeal to a much larger audience like Diablo/ League/ literally any popular top down aarpg.

This was a bad idea guys. Why would you have us use our spells and control our characters with the same hand? In a game that puts such an emphasis on positioning? Surely you guys can see the issue here?

Put your abilities on your mouse buttons. That's how I play mobas. Very natural

[KZavi]

Taking out mouse control actually ensures I won’t play the game, as I’m too disabled to handle either WASD or controller reliably. Very disappointing.

[forumcrybaby]

WASD for these kinds of games is trash. These developers are just listening to the same vocal MINORITY that shows up for every game with MOBA gameplay begging for their precious trash movement controls that they played in some game back then that is dead now or else, "THEY ARE OUT"

[Sancheese]

It's funny how so many people prefer point and click, which was a limitation of the platform that the moba genre started on many years ago, Warcraft 3. Back then, we would have killed to have better WASD support (you could pull it off with the WC3 editor, but with tons of input lag in game). I think it's very likely that DotA would have gone with WASD if it could have.

Now it has come full circle, lol.
