Can we please, PLEASE, with a cherry on top get mouse scrolling activated? It feels very awkward to me not having such basically functionality for this type of game. I really expected it for Beta 2.
The mouse scrolling in GC has always been more of a "grab and pull" kind of thing (click and hold the left mouse button then pull the map in the direction you want to move it), instead of the edge scrolling many other games employ. Personally I have generally found (I most often use windowed mode) that edge scrolling is more difficult to use.
Another way to reposition the main map is to click on the mini-map where you want the main map centered.
Appreciate your perspective Lucky Jack. I played the earlier GC's as well. My perspective - playing on 2560x1600 resolution creates a large amount of screen space, especially with the small UI. On top of that, I have never (ever) played any game in windowed mode. Not having edge scrolling is literally hurting my brain and I'm having a hard time playing without it. This is basic stuff and can easily be programmed to be disabled during Windowed Mode.
I'll 2nd edge scrolling toggle. Ya I can live without it but sometimes old habits from total war games and what not come back.
I will agree with all of you that edge scrolling is a useful feature, but please don't take away the "grab and pull" feature. I find it very useful.
Oh I love grab and pull, this is just an extra feature ontop. We don't want that removed.
