That's what I get for posting on a phone and not double checking what I write...thanks for correcting that.

As far as I know, yes. I believe the similarity to FPS games is one of the reasons many people like it--this is just what I've heard though, as I'm not our driver. If I remember correctly, in 2014 (we didn't do WCD this year) we used one of the buttons on the joysticks for turning in place. Trying to turn without pressing that button didn't do anything unless you were also going forward or backward.
