TO ALL KB/M PLAYERS

So I did what someone suggested and tried playing the game at the reduced resolution, I think the lowest is like 570p or something like that. (At least that was lowest setting for HDMI connection)

Granted at this resolution on my screen, things look blurry and very pixelated but I did noticed something straight away. The framerate was vastly improved.

I played on that Gallente level that is notorious for lag and low framerates and lo and behold - the framerates stayed smooth and stable at this new crappy resolution. The biggest thing I noticed? KB/M actually felt a lot better. Not perfect by any means but the difference WAS very noticeable.

I hope to god that with 1.9 and improved performances that we can get solid smooth framerates @720p because I would actually be able to aim then.

So, if we ran the game on something a bit more powerful than a PS3, like say a PC, then we might get similar results at a better resolution?

Apart from the lack of sensitivity, the sluggishness and overall feel, its difficult to select spawn locations using KB/M at times, we do not get the benefit of aim assist like control players do. We also pretty much cannot fly dropships with the KB/M. I much preferred the aiming in chromosome and back then controllers didn't have the advantage of aim assist. It was down to who was a good aim. Even still, controllers were dominant. Still though, there are those that will still argue here on the forums that the KB/M grants some sort of 'unfair advantage', the only advantage KB/M gives is turning speed while on foot. For this minor upside we suffer a lot of negatives and downsides. "Also I think knives are a good idea, big f**k-off shiny ones" "Guns for show, Knives for a pro" MY LIFE FOR AIUR!

If this game was running on PC, we wouldn't have these arbitrary restrictions and hindrances to KB/M play. Also one would assume that we would be able to remap the controls and keys too!
