Analog controls for Ryo

[SMDzero]

Should Ryo run by pressing the analog trigger like on Dreamcast? I liked how on Dreamcast Ryo's walking speed was highly variable based on how far the trigger was pressed.

Maybe this is the best method to control Ryo?

After all Suzuki COULD have let us control Ryo with the DC analog stick and camera movement could have been controlled with the triggers/ d-pad.

If i can't control Ryo using the trigger to run and the left and right dpad to steer him, imma rage.


I'll say give us an option like the resident evil hd with tank controls or analog controls.

I think they potentially could still offer controls where the player needs to use a trigger shoulder button to run and have it feel modern. There's still quite a few games where you use a trigger button tp sprint, although I can't think of specific names right now...

Just use tilt controls, everybody loves those.

I don't care about tank controls, but I do care about R/L to run look (they even start with the same letters).

Said it before- not just for the controls but also for the GUI, Loading Screens, Menu style etc etc they should have a toggle-able "Classic Mode".

Don't forget, the sticks can be clicked in on modern controllers. Not that I'd want to click in the stick to run like in MGSV, but it's an option if the triggers are needed for something else.

Exactly, the Square-Triangle-Cross-Circle in QTEs is the most horrendous thing to happen in this story.

I felt l.a. noire modernised much of shenmue's controls + how it felt, would be best to emulate that.



Regardless, I'm sure if shenmue 3 goes in another direction, the fans will step in with their own mods xD

Bingo.

The controls are amazing and need no change, just a bit of tweaking.

Call me a heretic, but they definitely need to be changed if there's any hope for Shenmue IV. People aren't going to like a game with controls from 1999.

Using the trigger to sprint/run isn't exactly old-fashioned and archaic though, is it? They could use dual analogue stick control for movement and the left or right trigger for running. I can imagine it feeling fairly natural and modern. I seriously don't want Shenmue to implement an 'auto-run' system or anything.

I think they need to work on moving around tight environments and corners. Though, some people make a big deal out of the 'tank controls' but they aren't bad at all in more open areas, which is mostly what Shenmue/II consists of.

Analogue stick + running trigger looks the best compromise but I still prefer the classic tank controls by miles. QTE/Free Battle with the stick just feels weird and I can't see myself switching between tank and stick while I'm playing.

If YSnet-Neilo do things well, the user datas grabbed from the beta should easily fix it anyway (but that point can be argued as beta testers will mainly be old school fans and as developing two different gameplays because of some indecision might imply a waste of time and money so it's not so easy to make a choice).
