Seriously, like half the game plays with keyboard and mouse. In my case, I can't actually play with a controller at all. CCP isn't going to drop half it's players to make you happy. It's not happening, get over it.*
*No actual statistics were in this post, I don't know those numbers. You "can't" play with a controller at all? Really? I am very curious about this set up where somehow it is literally impossible to use a controller which actually came as part of the original equipment for the console. How is it even possible to have the dedicated space required for a keyboard and mouse and not be possible to use a controller. Correct me if i am wrong but aren't most keyboards significantly larger than a controller? Clearly if you have room for a keyboard you have room if you moved the keyboard to rest both hands on said surface and comfortably hold a controller. Maybe your statement is more a reflection of how low your opinion is of the player base thinking that we would just blindly buy such a statement.
It's very simple. Some of us don't play console shooters. We play shooters on PC. Consoles are for games our satanboxes can't run because there is no PC release. And bluntly most of those aren't worth buying the console for.
So what happened is: We download DUST 514 and go to the controls to figure out where all the mapping is. We do a double-take and go HOT DAMN! THIS GAME HAS FAMILIAR INTERFACE! We promptly set the controller aside for Orbital bombardments, and hook up our precious KB/M and never think about trying to learn how to use the ten-butan, dual-stick having abomination, and giggle while you complain about how unfair KB/M is when it's efficacy has been nerfed below the DS3 because people whined.
And since we have no desire to cater to the way other people think the world should work, we make the sub-optimal solution work well. And we then farm you for Warpoints. Leading to more NERF KB/M threads for the trillionth time as we bask in our own autistic E-Peen glory. |

They thought that it will be more people playing if they did that.... Anyway... how is that working for you CCP ? Got all that 1000's of players from that other game ?... what is the name?... i forgot... 
OOPS!
GAIZ GAIZ THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO IMPROVE THE GAME FOR YOU...
We made it better...
please don't leave...
Yes, Nerfing the M/KB worked SO very well.
Let's repeat the fiasco immediately SURELY THINGS CAN ONLY IMPROVE IF WE DO THE EXACT SAME THING THE EXACT SAME WAY AND EXPECT DIFFERENT RESULTS!!! |

Well the game doesn't get the best reviews from critics, and other games come out. Then they dropped the Legion bomb and their went more people and more critics. I do for the most part enjoy the game personally.
But I find they are to focused on the wrong thing.
Ok I want to do a experiment this game is a experiment it's pretty much a rough draft for Legion
it would be better if they used DUST as a mechanics testbed for Legion and TOLD US they were making it into a test bed for legion.
What? You want us to take this new weapon and kill each other with it to see if it's viable in Legion? That's a horrible thing, I would never do that to my good friend Arkena..." *ZAP* ..."Hey that was kinda cool. Let's do it again." |

I can totally understand that a lot of people feel the opposite way, so it is best for both options to be available.
Which method of user input you decide to use is your choice, it's a matter of opinion. Please ***** about one of the countless problems with this game rather than a feature put in place to help the game cater to more than one audience.
Learning a new control interface for gaming takes about a month of dedicated practice. If most games operated off a D-Pad or a flight sim joystick I'd be hell on wheels. I had to learn KB/M about 12 years ago because neither interface was cutting it.
I've learned to used console controllers (Modern ones) since, but I detest them. The layout and controls are counterintuitive to me. |

Really? I am very curious about this set up where somehow it is literally impossible to use a controller which actually came as part of the original equipment for the console. I am not capable of controlling a character in an FPS with thumbsticks. (It kinda mystifies me anyone is.) I bought the console solely for DUST, solely because it had keyboard and mouse support. Removing keyboard/mouse support would be removing me from the game, as with probably thousands of others. *Again, I don't have actual numbers on this. I actually shock that people still can play with the "Virtual Joystick" simulator that CCP calls "Mouse Support"....  I had patience for a while, but eventually i just couldn't play any more...i don't know how you guys do it.
Being a masochist helps a lot. |

Nice dance shoes. Now explain how you "Can't" use a controller. By that i mean what physically makes you unable to use a controller.
The sensation of bile heaving into the back of my throat as I get ready to vomit from touching the crappy controller stops me. |
