Default One drawback

The only thing I can complain about regarding the use of Track IR is the fact that I find myself turning my head during a movie or other video game so I can see around, kinda like leaning while playing a driving game.......

If you are using a reflector sight, a little head movement won't be a problem anyway - that is what they are for. Less easy with iron sights though.

I hate it when I try out some cool looking flying game, and find it doesn't support TrackIR.

I am always surprised to hear of people flying flight sims without trackIr

After all these years you just forget its even possible. A bit like flying without a joystick I suppose.

+1 for the use of TrackIR

for CloD i feel there is a "snapping" of views where the game seems to center the movement. Annoying if u try to look left down or right down for instance.

TrackIR is capitalist extortion! Use FreeTrack!
</trololol>

But seriously, any kind of head tracking is very much recommended for CloD(or any other flight sim). Personally I use a little curving around the center with the rotation axis so it's easier to aim. I have the rotation speed otherwise at quite fast so I don't have to turn my head away from the screen.

My profile has a small deadzone in the center and then accelerates as i look round, i maybe have to turn my head about 30 degrees to look behind me.
Cant and will not fly without it. Not only for the ease and edge it gives but also for the immersion it adds.
