Kb/m lol, for those unable to use their thumbs well. Get guud ?

People like this are missing the point about a Keyboard and Mouse 3rd party Emulator in DUST 514.

No matter what Platform DUST 514 is hosted on.. It is part of the New Eden Galaxy.. And by extension EVE online. CCP knew people from EVE online would want to play DUST... and generally PC players would like to play DUST 514.

And for a PC player, or an EVE player... Going out and spending 60 bux on a Keyboard and Mouse Emulator isn't much expense at all.

The problem with this is if you take that 3rd party Emulator and Use it with a game like CoD or Battlefield or even DUST 514(Now).. You now have a mouse with Aim assist... What people in the PC world refer to as Aim Hacks. CCP knew this when developing DUST 514. They knew New Eden players would go out and buy a 60 dollar piece of hardware to take advantage of the situation and gain a natural advantage.

CCP then set out to offer native Keyboard and Mouse Support for DUST 514 and then Balanced it with the DS3, By many different limitations.. So if you went out and bought a 60 dollar piece of hardware it made no difference in your control input and gameplay then just plugging the USB's into the Playstation.

The way they have COMPLETELY unbalanced the peripherals has CREATED a natural advantage in DUST 514 for anyone that goes out and buys an 3rd party Emulator to Emulate the DS3's Aim assist and Hit detection.

Fixing controls for a game is a Core Mechanic.. It needs addressing for the benefit of DUST as a whole..

I will keep waiting... And when they finnally bring back chromozone m/kb controlls, I shall return and smite all the ney saying thumb jockeys.

All m/kb users who are unhappy with the current controls and sensitivity should let their voice be heard..

File a support ticket, create threads, raise hell till we get a response/acknowledgement from Devs..

• The aim and control sticky in the feedback section has now been removed


• Even after multiple kb/m users expresed their concerns with the current mouse emulation vs DS3 aim assist there was never a response from a Dev..


• Friends of mine who use kb/m and myself have posted support tickets and they refer us to post on the forums. .


• The small minority of vocal mouse users who make threads have half trolls and half users struggling with the following..

Wobbling ADS
Inaccurate hip fire slides left and right
Acceleration to slow on some mouse types

Now before the DS3 users get on here and say htfu its a console use a controller gtfo tryhard etc

When the DS3 was slow and ****** up in chromosome and pre 1.4 you guys were pissed and extremly vocal about it...

Now put yourself in our shoes you're still unable to track tagets the controls have a mind of there own and you're constantly going up against other players that get aim assist and you have pre 1.4 controls. .

I don't feel any problems with kb/m, I don't see what you are crying about here.... the KB/m controls have a much higher sensitivity than the DS3

Are you using that Aim-Assist scrub mechanic? Because that could be what's ******* with your shots if you are using a mouse... I turned that crap off.

I laugh every time this thread gets bumped.


Because the absolute pure lack of blue tag after so many pages just proves the title right every time it rises from the ashes.

I enjoy some of these responses.

Betthy for instance made such a long winded speech to say "give kb/M raw input because we are just buying workarounds that give us aim assist as well as a superior aiming method"

Only the dust community produces such heavy loads of horse ****.

Superior aiming method is kinda the only bullshit when talking about DUST. There are several installed inhibiting factors on mouse use in DUST 514 like there always has been... Starting with the fact that it isn't a "Mouse" Its a joystick emulation... so it's never been a true "Mouse" To have that superior control function Bullcrap you blame all your deaths on.

Mouse in DUST 514 isn't a MOUSE.... It's a joystick emulation... Keyboard isn't some magical "A" and "D" button that the DS3 doesn't have... They merely emulate the control input off the DS3. Like always.

The "Superior" Bullcrap is like claiming the Playstation Move is Superrior because you can pinpoint aim easier with a sniper rifle...

You sound as ignorant and silly as a majority of people on this forum... Why don't you go make more threads about nerfing and buffing things... Pretty much all you care about instead of core game mechanics and actually making DUST better.

underlined the lie for you.

it has never been stated that it is joystick emulation. If you plug in a mouse, you will also see that it isn't joystick emulation because there is absolutely no acceleration or deceleration with the mouse. Sure the sensitivity and some other factors are wonky, but it is infact using PRECISION not ACCELERATION.

You would also without a doubt notice that direction keys (WASD) are indeed digital, not analog. This means they are either full-go or full-stop. Once again, not an emulation. It is the #1 reason why flying a dropship with mouse/kb is a pain.

How about you stop making things up?

Just woke up... Am I dreaming?

Dust is going to PC?

I'll be able to play it with a mouse that actually works?

No more snotty console twats telling me to STFU and use a controller?

Is this really happening?

It's all true.

Maybe we should console the console players by telling them that they might be able to use controllers?

**** that. Then they'll ***** and moan about wanting AA.

Instead I say: THIS IS PC NOT CONSOLE USE A MOUSE HAHAHAHAHA

to all the console kiddies that slapped us with the stupid line "its a console game go back to your PC" well we are and you aren't suck a fat one enjoy your dead game.

I'm glad they are making it... I sold my ps3 some months ago, and now i can play "Dust" again. \o/
