Turning character around, rotating the world, basic movement problems?

in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes

Im new to Vanguard and im concerned the motility inteface is either badly designed or im using it incorrectly.

Can someone out there confirm a few things for me.....

Ive been playing WOW a long time now since release and the physical way to move the characters around are much different I found, perhaps im using the game incorrectly or not im not sure

In wow for instance, i can left click the world (not on any object) and rotate the world around my character in any angle EVEN while running forward.

it seems i cant do anything like this, in fact i cant seem even to turn the world around so i see the FRONT of my character, hmmm i can only use the right mouse to turn the world but it forces my character to also turn to that direction so this game really isnt 360 representation of a "World" ... if i cant have 360 degree rotation control, up, down, all around, moving, static (ie: not moving) or otherwise then Im afraid to say the game design is poor.

IS there a way to configure the game to let me turn around the world while im still moving so i can see stuff on any angle without changing the direction of my character in Vanguard???

IS there a way to actually view the character in game without looking at the character panel?

So far in my first day of Vanguard im a bit dissapointed but hopefully i can get these things worked out.

    There have been times when i have a similar problem (not being able to rotate the view) but recently i have been able to. I know it is possible. Might be some bug related thing in the controls. But i know it is possible to do just like it is in WoW.

    Sorry i couldn't be a little more helpful

    I can do those things, I just think you need to look at your bindings and play with it's layout a bit. I wouldn't suggest changing keys until you play a bit though.

    Oh, and if you are using TS or Vent while playing, your PTT key may be toggling an alt mode. Happens to me all of the time.

    I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!

    In fact, forget the SWG!!!!

    If  you right click on your toon and then drag the mouse you'll rotate your toon to face you.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys,

    I dont use vent on that computer actually so its not interfering,

    I havent done anything to the settings in reference to key bindings other than the AutoRun key was switched to the default Key i use in World of Warcraft so its similar,

    i'll try the Right clicking of the character to twirl him around see if thats doing what i Want to,

    appreciate the posts

    The default is that a left click and drag will allow you to circle your toon, right click and drag causes your toon to circle. I am in game right now and this works, however, I found when I installed drox ui, that left and right click together no longer causes forward movement, so if you have modified the ui it could be causing the problem.

    If you don't change any binding, you can do it by holding the left mouse button.

    Auto run is numpad.  So hit numpad and move the cam around with mouse by holding teh left mouse button.
