    Yes, I have been able to adapt playing the fast pace style that you like. However after each game, with all that turning and aiming, I am unable to stand up straight and walk properly for a few minutes.

    Is that what you want to happen to your players? I love this game and tried my best to adjust, but the game now has some major health implications. I am still dizzy typing this post.

    Same. Got a headache after playing an hour straight. I still enjoy the game and I'm one of those people that actually like the fast agilities but not playing much for the same reason.

    Some players can adapt to the agility update, some(like @Elothean and @Joey who) cannot. Devs need to look into this.

    As for you guys, you might want to turn down the control sensi sliders in your settings, I hope it'll reduce your dizziness for now

    Still tho, I don't think it should. You're an enfo main too, aren't you? I stay strictly away from playing enfo any more than five games in a session, personally. Dizziness is a very real issue and needs to be discussed.

    I did all the tricks and contol combinations to make it work. I was able to find the best for me to play effectively, however I should lie down after games to be able to recover lol

    The only way I could adapt to the too-high agility is to do the following:

    Turn On:
    • Cruise Control. I can't keep a straight line myself, so auto-pilot it is.
    • Camera Sensitivity turned up to 1.7. That allows me to switch camera direction as fast as the Turret moves.
    • Center Joystick to touch. This avoids the camera angle accidentally switching with the left side of the screen.

    Turn Off:
    • Rotate Camera With Ship. I loved this setting before, but now with max Rudder it's horrible.
    • Autopilot. I have yet to understand the purpose of this... as I rarely want to just run right into the enemy.
    • Camera Relative Steering. I tried it, don't like it. If I have it on, I want Reversing off because the boat gets too tied up, and at any rate the Rudder is so high one may as well treat the boat as an omnidirectional vehicle.

    It's been very hard to un-train myself to navigate and aim at the same time as I'm used to. Now I just stick on cruise control and focus on aiming, and steering is now done with both thumbs. This new scheme takes away a good chunk of game control.... so much that switched from Shooter to Defender because it has 20% less Rudder and more sane to control.

    I think the joystick can be tweaked to make this work better. For example anything 50 degrees from 0 will use a stable path and 90 degrees will use the max Rudder to turn.

    Even though I have adapted 75% so far, I don't like the game as much as I did before max agility was forced on us.
