This request is very critical for vehicle based experiences. In many vehicle based games there’s no camera steering, which puts Fortnite into a strange spot. I understand that this is meant to be a convenient or accessibility feature, but at least there should be an option for the user to explicitly turn it off if desirable.
I’m really grateful that the dev team added and finally fixed the setting to disable left stick acceleration for controllers. Similarly we need a setting to disable steering into the camera’s direction. The status quo makes it impossible to precisely control a vehicle in the air, while drifting or when driving in reverse.
As noted in the title, it should be opt-out. (Personally I’d prefer it as an opt-in feature, but it’s already the current default, which is unlikely to change.)
