Turning system is whacked. I want my arrow keys for constant turns (hold arrow while turning, release arrow and turning stops), and my WASD for rudder. I don't wanna use rudder ALL the time.
And the much maligned chat system seriously needs work. I like the old one JUST FINE, this one the color are screwy, and the commands are even screwier.

As for turning you can switch useing alt+y for new rudder or the default. however it seems that if you leave game and rejoin the steering does not revert to default.
As for chat....
well....
no comment :/

Do not fear change...
The chat system is just a little thing, that can be adapted to easily.
The rudder keys for the arrows (it was just a different kind of rudder) I dunno. Gonna be up to Faustus as to whether that can/will be re-implemented. I imagine that it will be restored, unless it creates some sort of problem with the game's operation itself (like sync issues, etc).

The new turning system is pretty cool, it sucks in combat but its pretty sweet in navigation.
As for the chat commands, the /yell command should reach all enemies and allies in your system.
Basicly this will give you the /e command we have now accept that it wont spam everyone to death in the new MV 
Oh and em, why are you looking all the topics?
You cant expect people to discuss all the new things in beta in 1 single topic, look at it. Its a big pile of spam.
Forums build so that people could make diffrent topics where other people could reply.
Not to make one topic and force everybody to just dump all their replies on the pile and hope someone actually reads it.
