I think it would be great if the mouse-controlled head movement be deactivated while walking. I hate walking around with my head facing up or down. I see everyone else with the same problem, so I guess it would mean alot to the realisticness of the game.

The mouse controls where you look. If your walking with your head down, your looking at the ground. I agree that it can look a bit awkward to those around you, but if you disabled this function, how would you look around while walking?

Yes, but honestly, how many people actually look around inworld while walking? Your view is centered to the direction of movement anyways, so.. what's the point? It might add a little to realism, but I'd rather walk without having to keep track of my mouse, than be able to twist and turn my head while walking.

The point is that when you're standing still, you look at where the mouse is too. Sorry it works all the time, rather than just when standing still. After all, we all know everyone in existence walks around exactly the same way all the time.</sarcasm>
