Don't invert it.
Inverting is for joysticks, not for the mouse.

I used to play inverted on flight simulators, for the strange reason that I landed better inverted.  It just takes a little practice to adapt.

Go away fuckwit.


on topic - I choose non-inverted, seen as though everyother game is non that ive played, so that would just be weird.  Just thinking about how difficult it would be gives me a headache!

Played almost all flight sims as a kit, configured my mouse inverted because to bring the horizon up, you pull back.  Same with the mouse, to bring the gun up, pull back.

Inverted for me and its actually more natural that way. Imagine that you have both your arms broken and back and neck etc... You would have to lean forward to move the mouse up on the mat. So by leaning forward and down in "real life" you character is doing the same in the game.
Try to PIN your arms to your body so you cant move them forward and try looking up and down without inverted mouse. Do that for 5 minutes and you'll start using inverted.

If you *can* play an FPS with an inverted mouse, you're a freaking mutant.  I suppose you use an inverted mouse to work the computer, too..

I use inverted mouse...
It`s perfectly natural, when you lean back you look up
when you lean forward you look down

The first game i ever played was f15 strike eagle, so i`ve always used it since then

I say again...
Please try this. BE CURIOUS ABOUT THINGS !!!!! DON'T DISMISS THINGS WITHOUT TRYING !!!!!

Hold your elbows firmly to your ribs and don't move you arms forward and backwards, keep your elbows to your ribs. This will force you to physically move like you would in real life when looking up and down. (of course dont put your mouse on uber sensitive mode).
Now try playing the game first without inverted mouse and see how "natural" it is. Than try with inverted mouse.

Karma who tries it....

yer but most games are defult non-invert, so why the hell did i change it in the 1st game i ever played, i used to play the PS a load using the old pad with the 2 toggle sticks maybe it was that what started it?

Yea, i used to play the PS2 inverted, but the idea of using a mouse inverted is weird imo O.o

I suppose, i used to do things like photoshop and 3DSM before i got any games on the computer, so i was used to using non-inverted on th desktop.
Not
Great success!

Why in the name of all things holy would you ever do this? I'm not flaming I'm being totally serious. In what context does this benefit a player? Typically speaking, if my arms were gone, or broken along with my neck, I wouldn't be too worried about inverting my mouse so I could play.....
