Will you use strafing when its available?

The title says it all.

If it's advantageous to do so, then yes. However, we wouldn't really know until we've played the new system long enough, so I haven't voted.

I HATE strafing, always have always will, its not a natural movement and it requires more coordination and reaction time, something that the FAQ had at one time specifically mentioned would not be needed to play this game. This type of game is not made for strafing, part of the reason i liked this game was for the controls.

strafing is a failure. completely. give up NGD. just stop doing anything. LEAVE REGNUM ALONE for a while. just stop.

Well I still haven't noticed any depth added to gameplay with strafing, or any advantage I could get by strafing instead of turning so I won't be rebinding just yet.

No.

Or at least not until someone can show me its direct advantages.

Or secondly, until it's implemented in a usable fashion.

Only in theory.

we had to let people go back to the previous control scheme as for some people it will take more time to adjust.

We WANT everyone to move on to the new control scheme.

We just know it will take time though...
It took years for part of the FPS gaming community to move from keyboard rotation to Mouselook... but the benefits of mouselook and strafing are evident.
