I've been using mouse/keyboard for the last two day, and while I can say I'm better with some things; I've also been worse with other areas.
My sniping has been wonderful compare to how terribly I do with a controller. However, there are a few things I am happy to complain about.
--For one, the hit detection still needs some work. I often snap my crosshairs over an enemy and find his shields flaring, but find no damage has been dealt.
--Aiming is also troubled, but hard for me to describe. I don't know many of the developer terms for aiming, but I'll do the best to describe. I'm trying to get my hairs over an enemy, but I'm constantly grazing over his body with my hairs. It's almost like I can only get my crosshair on the pixels just between him. I"m not sure if this is me, but it's a pain.
--Vehicle support is terrible! I haven't tried dropships yet, but the tanks are a nightmare. I was using a stabilized blaster on a Soma, and I found I couldn't zoom in! I also found the sensitivity/tracking on blasters mean't I had to move across my desk two times with my mouse just to turn around, so aiming is a hassle rather than reflex. I don't know why this is, but it's extremely annoying.
--The emulation of controllers just takes away from the point of using a mouse. It's less precise by a large margin!
If anyone wants, I also have some ideas regarding button layouts. Since it seems bindable keys aren't anywhere in sight, I'd suggest different preset.
Right now, we get this weird one that requires me to switch between using my right and left hands. It's be a ton easier if we could just have seperate presets for both lefties and righties. |

Hi dude.
Try setting you mouse update rate to 100/125 Hz (lowest setting) in you gaming mouse.
You should also turn off aim assist in the controller settings, it affects the aiming of the mouse.

Agreed on all accounts. And yes, key binding needs a serious re-working, or at least allow us to set them ourselves. |

Give controllers stick acceleration- ds3 should not emulate mouse.
You want your raw input with no drawbacks, give me my goddamn stick acceleration, customizable ADS sensitivity, and the ability to turn of sticky reticule, magnetism, or both.
Only then will i allow the mouse to have itsfabled 'raw input'

Worst part I feel is navigating menus. The +, - stuff instead of L2 or R2 is terrible. Not to mention the only way to scroll up in some menus is to use the arrow keys. I have to move my hand from WASD, instead of having those damn keys scroll. |

Selection of spawn location in an uplink rich environment is beyond frustrating, as is scrolling through fittings in the spawn menu. |

Mouse and Keyboard support should be stopped on a console anyway. At the end it is unbalanced that with M/K you can do more hits while you move on the battlefield than with DS3.
But I understand that most oft the players are not really good at aiming with a DS3 ... so what. |

Your right.
A majority of people just want to be able to customize their control scheme to fit their game style.
We keep getting limited and put with restrictions on either control input instead of just making them as highly customizable as possible and let players build their own balance.
Trying to actively balance the control input's by putting restrictions or buff's onto one or the other just creates more problems. Even worse it will always be one of the key factor's Game reviewer's will give DUST 514 a poor score. |

Unreal tournament was both gamepad and Mkb support... CS:GO is both supported and its not an emulation.
Playstation 4 is fully M/KB supported... this is the times we live in.
Mouse and keyboard isn't some fancy peripheral here to obsolete the gamepad... Both are archiac input devices that are on their way out soon we will be just using our hands and real time for controls.
