I don't use AA. I've been anti-AA for a while. Controller, dawg. Doesn't need an assist, even against a mouse. Controllers are superior close quarters. I wonder when people will realize that...

So your unhappy the kb/m input is being passed through an emulator first, you want raw input, why?

If COD and battlefield on pc are actually supportive of the sony controller, on a windows platform that is news to me!
Now the main reason kb/m users don't complain is because on pc 2 people of equal skill level, will vary based on the gear they have.

The controller has physical drawbacks by comparison, sure a guy with a controller can indeed whale on few noobs with it, but you will never see a controller being used for competition.

And dont forget counterstrike was orginally a pc game, and was built from that, they merely had to add in the controller input modifications/bindings etc.

Im not saying you shouldn't get rsw input, but you have to consider what will happen when you do!

Please don't assume that I don't know what im talking about, that is a custom controller, or personalized or what ever you want to call it. But that is hardware, the software still doesn't actually support the raw input of a controller, its emulated!!

Im studying this kinda stuff at uni, dont tell me I don't know anything!

of course is emulated ... the gamepad itself is a keyboard / mouse emulator, even in consoles. The mouse represents movement in a 3D environment in the purest of forms. The gamepad is trying to be a replacement for the mouse, not something better. The way we develop Software will have to completely change before the mouse input can be successively replace.

True a console is a "computer" my phone is a "computer" my car has a "computer" in it. But that doesn't answer my question, why should a console accept "raw input" from an input device not native to the system?

Another way of trying to get across what im saying is, why should a ps3 allow direct input from an xbox controller?

You are applying the term computer to literally, you are assuming a computer is like the one sat in your back room, this is a marketing ploy.

A computer is merely an assortment of hardware and software, capable of repeating a task consistently many times.

The keyboard and mouse is actually a rather new invention, it was invented only 30-40 years ago. Yet "computers" have been around much longer. The first home computer cost -ú100 it didn't have a screen a keyboard or a mouse, just a seriesmof switches. So really a keyboard is just a simulation of switches!

So I am petioning for CCP to accept a 5+ù5 wall of switches as valid input as well!!

And you have yet to actually answer my question, all you have done is tell me that kb/m should be accepted because its a computer, that isn't sufficent!

Lol, actually evidence suggests that the computer industry is falling, moore's law won't apply soon because the kb/m and apple are slowing us down, we are on the precipice of new input method, if moores law is to continue!!

But I see the point your trying to make, so Ill try and rephrase the question, if the keyboard and mouse was the other way with the controller, (so controller becomes input method for even home computers) why would we allow raw input of the kb/m then?

so your effectively ignoring the whole argument we just had?
Pigeon . Chessboard

todoalu!!

The reason you emulate the kb/m on a console game, is to limit the physical advantages, the kb/m is a technologically superior input system. Emulation turns into a preference, at most you should expect custom binding, something I would like on the controller as well!!
