Does the game support controller setup?


Recommended Posts

i doubt it. why would you want to?

a mouse and keyboard will kick the crap out of someone trying to use a controller.

But to answer your question, at this time I don't think so. It seems the control scheme is very limited.

This game is not designed for controlers.

Its a question of survival, for good shooting you need an accurate MOUSE. Nothing can replace it.

(Yes I know consoles use it, but that only works in 'Easy/Auto-aiming mode' with a Über-Fat crosshair in the center of your screen)

I agree again, but he still doesn't. Are you saying you can on easy with autoaim? I've got him playing with mouse on demo, but he won't buy the full game if he can't use a *cough* controllor. If it doesn't support it oh well, just trying to find out.

Thanks for ALL the replies. I talked him into buying the full game, even though he'll have to use the mouse and keyboard. Told him maybe in the future a patch will allow it ;) by then he'll be use to it and already own it so :whistle:

I am using a "FlexiGlow Cyber Snipa" game pad. I find it easy to use and I have 'remapped' the keys.

I have noticed several of these styles lately. They are similar to the Z Board style keys for the left hand control. Still use a mouse in the right hand.

Works fine...........................................kingkat

*Shakes head* I still can't believe the tunnel-vision surrounding the use of analog controllers in PC FPS games. People (including developers) always assume if you use a joystick, you'll be using it for aiming instead of a mouse.

>:(

For those of you that believe NOTHING beats a mouse/keyboard setup... think again:

If GRAW PC doesn't "truly" support the use of an analog HID axes for movement (of course not forr aiming!), then I probably will NOT buy this game. What a shame! The XB360 version does analog-for-fluid-movement extremely well --instead of the tired old ON/OFF digital style for walking/running...

(Of course a thumbstick is ridiculous for aiming. Mouse/trackball is the way to go there.)

Therefore, using a joystick/mouse combo beats keyboard/mouse hands down.

of course many if not all gamepads have software to emulate keystrokes but really.... the movements are designed to use a keyboard, so let him be happy and try whatever he likes. Tell him he CAN use it... :lol:
