If I were you I'd give KB/M more of a chance. Trying it for a few minutes really isn't going to tell you anything. You need to play it for a while, adjust the sensitivity, and then play it for a while longer. The aiming is far superior with a mouse than a joystick, even with how finicky KB/M is on Dust.

The only thing I haven't quite figured out on the KB/M is how to issue squad orders, but that's mostly due to my laziness.

The biggest downside in using KB/M is turning a turret. With a joystick you can hold it down and it will keep turning. With a mouse you have to pick up, drag, pick up drag... I tend to use my Sixaxis to make long turns and the mouse to aim for that reason. With infantry there's no issue.

Could always re-map your keyboard via 3rd party. Lol, although its a pain in the ass with the reboots involved.

I once re-mapped my roommates keyboard so that every button hot linked to gay prons

I won't play if it isn't.

Did anyone say that you ******* roach?

Can honestly say I prefer the controller.....

Please let us use controllers on legion.....do it for the original dusters....

If they gimp the KBM in Legion even a little bit, I will laugh, biomass, and never play a CCP game again.

Something we're keeping in mind for sure going forward.

Don't be surprised when you won't have aim assist. Controllers will be a secondary control method, so it more then likely won't have an aim assist, or if it does it will be negligible. They also won't put any restrictions on the kb/m so it will fly free as a bird.

Controllers will not be a competitive method of input, but if you play casually there probably won't be an issue for you.

Hey Lame-CP maybe this time you can add controller support to this douchey PC-only version and give the controller a douchey unfair advantage. This way console gamers can douche out on douchey pc gamers who have been claiming to be the douche-sac of douches because of how douchy you made KB/M for them.

"But, it's a PC game, so there should be no place for controllers!"


-Logic of Dust players who think having mouse and keyboard controls for Dust ruins the whole game.

This is a PC game now, take your peasant box input elsewhere. You had your fun in the sun always on headshot mode for the past few months.

That said, you can do this on PS4? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FUwAENrrAg

I've been running with auto aim turned off already, I'll still back that controllers will be competitive still in Legion.


DS3 WARRIORS UNITE!

Something we're keeping in mind for sure going forward.

You are currently playing a game that has aim assist as well as kb/m restrictions to attempt at evening the playfield between two inputs that have large disparities in efficiency.

Play a game that's removes those shackles, and you'll be singing a new tune.

That would be cool! After 16 months of DUST I finally got good with the Controller. So how would that work? We plug the controller in using the USB cord and you include a driver to interpret the Controller signals as part of Legion?

You can even if you are told you cant.

I'm all for having controllers in Legion. I'm almost 100% M/KB, but I have never flown a Jet in BF4 on my PC as well as I have with a XBox 360 controller. That said, I really really hope they don't implement any form of aim assist in Legion.

I for one cannot wait to finally be able to bind "1, 2, 3, 4..." to my weapons/equipment. That damn weapon/module selection wheel is one of my biggest peeves of M / KB in this game, not including the issues with mouse aiming.

Something we're keeping in mind for sure going forward.

No raw input and/or aim assist would ruin the game from the get go.

Did anyone say that you ******* roach?

And I can't wait, they unlock the restrictions for KB/M so will controller.

I wish it was in a nearer future so we could "I told you so" to each other. =P

And unmodified restrictions to sensitivity.

I dunno if they still plan on going that route.... DUHHHH, heavy cant turn good DERR, I just blubbering buffoon.

You don't quite understand.

There are no restrictions on the DS3 currently. Only additions to make aiming more fluid. There are restrictions on the KB/M to prevent it from overcoming the limitations that the DS3 has.

On Legion, the KB/M restrictions will be completely removed and more then likely the additions the DS3 have will also be completely removed. If not removed, the aim assist will be tapered back to a fraction of what it currently is in dust. This is the case with almost all PC games, because the controller is a secondary method of input.

CCP was one of the few, if not only, game company that tried to create two unbalanced inputs as a primary. This led to the KB/M being choked back to laughable levels compared to Unreal Tournament, and why DS3 has such a large impacting aim assist.

As you can tell from the history of CCP tinkering with it trying to find a balance between the two inputs, it failed horribly. I doubt they will try to do it again Legion.

The driver support, however, is an entirely different matter. Not to mention the issue of controller mapping not being custom made.
I can't imagine CCP crunching out dedicated control schemes for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3 and PS4 controllers.

Can honestly say I prefer the controller.....

This.

I have never played FPS before Dust because I don't like WASD controls. I tend to steer clear of PC games that are not turn based or point and click. Legion must have controller support on the PC for simpletons like me who can't grasp WASD.
