Hit the middle mouse button, it selected the one next to it. 2 or 3 tries I can get it. Last build it was spot on.

Maybe it is just me, but it feels harder.

Got GIMX but it feels wierd to use, controls seems sluggish. Felt better with regular USB mouse and Keyboard.
Any advice how to set GIMX up or what could I be doing wrong?

My shotgun can't hit ADADAD super strafers.
Will try to get good.
In the mean time, I'd say that's a pretty strong advantage.

Ok, since it was brought up here, I would like to make a challenge to all the devs that play this game.

YOU HEAR ME DEVS, THIS CHALLENGE IS FOR YOU!!!

1 - Create a logistics dropsuit that has at least 2+ equipment slots, but the more the better.
2 - Fill every equipment slot with something different.
3 - Enter a game.
4 - Ready equipment item #1.
5 - Ready equipment item #2.
6 - Repeat steps 4 and 5 over and over as fast as you can while running A STRAIGHT LINE at the same time!

Can't do it can you!

This is one of the most frustrating things about this stupid f*cking rotary menu interface bullsh*t that you guys keep fausting upon your players! Stop the abuse of Human to Machine Interface Design!

Seriously! you already have a button to swap between weapons in the interface, so why duplicate that sh*t on the rotary menu? So if you REMOVE the heavy, light, and sidearm weapons from the rotary menu, then you free up all that space! Similarly for the grenades carried. No need to have them on there as you have a button specifically allocated for them already! So all that's left to go onto the rotary EQUIPMENT menu is the EQUIPMENT! Since the most equipment someone might carry is like four items, this is easily put onto the menu as each item is at one full quarter of the rotary EQUIPMENT menu! So first item at 12 o'clock, second at 3 o'clock, third at 6 o'clock, and fourth at 9 o'clock.

DUN! Seriously freaking easy fix to an interface nightmare that has plagued this game since beta!

I hope someone out there in dev land really reads this. 8(

Most of us KBM people had our KBM sitting around in front of our PC's when we went out and got a PS3 to play Dust 514 on when they said they would have Native KBM support.

A year later we still have Virtual Overlays, if they had said back then that they wouldnt use native KBM, i would not have bought a PS3 and would have stayed playing APB Reloaded on PC with my clan and kept rolling other so called KBM guys that play like they hold a DS3 on PC.

But i got invested in Dust, so i am here to stay, i just want what had been promised to me.


PS: There are about 7 other people in Dust that are on a competetive equal level with me, that i know use a DS3 and gone up against solo, teams that need 2 Tanks a couple of snipers and brickatnked slayers with logi support to keep me from tearing up their team of 6 are not considered to be equal even if they give me hard time.

KBM is still > DS3. Quit asking for god mode.

Simple question: Do you actually use a KBM to play Dust?

If you believe the above, I will wager $1M ISK your answer is no.

Native KBM is nowhere near as good as DS3 in this game. Those are the facts. They are undisputed by those who have actualyl used and played with both.

Nobody is asking for "godmode". We are simply asking for controls that work and put us anywhere close to an even playing field with DS3 users.

And after that KBM took over. Get over the "chromosome" and move forward.

Why can't you ppl just pick up the dam controller that the game came with in the fist place?

No so you go and buy some extra gear to get a advantage over others then you cry like a child that they are as good as you with that out of the box controller. ( Or I state competitive )
Al that money spent and no god mode, that can't be right can it?

No STFU and pick up the controller.

CCP have the stats and will take decisions accordingly. if they nerfed KB/M it's because their data was telling them it needed to happen.

Anecdotally, I've heard from a few players in the game that switching from DS3 to KB/M improved their KDR by a factor of 3 (on average). There's also a video on youtube where a scrub making his second video says he is trying KB/M for the first time and he is gushing about how much easier it is to aim and proceeds to get a KD/R well over 4 when in his previous video (using a DS3) it was something like .50 and the dude could not hit the side of a barn.

Anyway, as long as CCP is using empirical evidence (based on their data) to determine how to level the playing field I have no problem with their decisions.

The thing is, Dust are the ones that took it upon themselves to offer KBM support. We didnt just come here with controllers and impose ourselves. We were invited.

All we ask for is fair treatment. We are being deliberately held back and our controls are sluggish on purpose so that people like you can go around with your Aim Assist and feel like you are worth something.

So if you want equality, how about instead you demand that Aim Assist be removed? Cause if you are going to have the PS3 do the aiming for you, the least we could get is the right to be fully incharge of our own aiming.

Controllers are FOTM. When I look at the history of controllers, the NES, the SNES, the Sega Genesis, the DreamCast, the N64, the PS1, the PS2, the PS3, the Xbox Original, Xbox 360, Xbox One......as times change so does the controller.

The Keyboard/mouse has stayed intact for decades. I was playing Quake with my KBM while you were still a resident for your fathers loins.

I am able to operate at a higher level than you. Not only do I dont need an Aim Assist, but I am able to coordinate my arms, writs and fingers in synchronization and harmony. You can operate both your thumbs. Congratulations. Thats like comparing the effort it takes to drive a go kart versus an F1 racer.

Wall of text

Your argument is, and always will be invalid because DS3 has AutoAim.

You know only the Nintendo systems tend to have a drastic redesign on their controllers between systems right
I mean lets look at the PS controllers since thats the system we are on and youll see that for 20 YEARS (caps for emphasis) the controller has undergone very little change with the biggest being the addition of the analog sticks in the PS1 era

Also funny that you mention Quake since I remember Quake on the Dreamcast, that game offered raw input for the KBM you know and guess what happened, KBM ran rampant over controllers since mechanically for this genre its just inherently superior

Oh and the coordination comments you make are great, I mean lets take aiming with a mouse right, you get to use your entire arm to aim while the controller people get to use a little thumb stick with dead zones on it not to mention the face and shoulder buttons with the design of the controller meaning there are 8 buttons and two sticks I need to manipulate with just two fingers, two of my less dexterous ones in fact meaning I end up having to more button presses without getting to dedicate a digit to a single key for ease of use

Anyway if you didnt want to read all that which I suspect you wont so you can just scream some more that your power fantasy is crumbling around you because you died in a video game Ill just suggest that you seek some professional help for what is obviously an inferiority complex on your part and maybe a bit of a persecution complex as well


Sincerely a gamer with more than 2 decades on experience on both consoles and PC's who doesnt have his head up his ass and will readily admit the truth concerning advantages and disadvantages between control schemes

if some of the guys who use a kbm set up are as superior as they say and auto aiming swings things so much in the controllers favor then they should have no problem adapting and wrecking
After all it is easier right?

keyboards and mouses are gay, they shouldnt even be on here, they are lucky to get what they got, ungrateful is what they is

Keyboard and mouse has cost dust more users in the first year than it will ever bring in over Dust lifetime. Any time someone who uses a console finds out that they will be playing against KB/M with their controller, they shy away. Dust is no different.

Except your full of ****.


DUST with Proper Mouse and Keyboard support... 15k player peaks. And EVE players actually excited about the game.


DUST with Terrible Mouse and Keyboard Support 4-5k player peaks. EVE players Want the DUST 514 project cancelled.


Your just another un-informed internet troll... Bet you scream "F*ing M?KB users!" everytime you die too.

Nope, you are just incredibly stupid.

Dust, first launch... 15k.

Dust after console players say f-ck playing with kb/m players.. 3k.

Eve players have always, always wanted dust canceled.

God you are dumb.

Yup extremely un informed and very ignorant you are.

Uprising Launch = Worst KB/M support in DUST's history... Check the mass exodus of players.... The console fanboys went no where...

The people with a nice PC and other gaming options that didn't need a free game on the console? Left. That playstation 3 was only a few hundred dollars... Alot of players own Mouses that are 150-200bux... Was an easy write off. Not for someone who lives on their playstation however...

I Have been playing EVE since 2003... We actually planned for DUST 514 and EVE players to play it When it was announced... In 3 different alliances I was apart of. EVERYONE was excited... You merely have to check that years fanfest results that led CCP to even make the game.

After terrible peripheral control in Uprising launch... Holding consistent Active EVE players playing DUST was near impossible.

You can see this With many of the EVE entities that have Sub corps for DUST. Their EVE players stopped playing DUST. PC players in General have stopped playing DUST. It's got a terrible control interface... Whos to blame them?


1.4 marked Aim assist... And that patch dropped players significantly even more... Its taken us 8 months to even recover that player base we lost from it....


Your just another forum troll that talks out of his ass.
