I don't really understand why they had to go add Keyb + Mouse support... They should have left it DS3 / Move only from the start, and there would not have been all this whining. I mean, it's a PS3 exclusive, play the game like a PS3 game.

Not everyone playing BF3 on PC has exactly the same skill with Keyb + Mouse, just like no one playing on PS3 has the same skill with DS3. Why go complicate something that was perfectly simple. If you don't like DS3, either learn to use the damn thing, like any PS3 player had to do the first few weeks of owning a console, or just don't play it.. There are many games I don't play because something in it does not work for me, I don't go cry about it, I just don't play it. Allowing Keyb + Mouse WILL just cause long term frustration for the players and CCP, more than not having the support at all would have had, mark my words...

This was a bad idea, and balancing it perfectly will be close to impossible. Should have left out Keyb + Mouse completely, but I guess time will tell if CCP can make it work. I'm not particularly good with the DS3 or Keyb + Mouse, it's just my opinion that they should have kept controller choice to a minimum. Now they will be dealing with this debate forever, unless they "filter" controllers, and that goes against the spirit of EVE and the whole persistent world thing imo.

I play EVE, I play shooters on PS3, I play shooters on PC using Keyb + Mouse, so please don't tell me I'm some PS3 fanboy, I'm stating what I believe is fact, so let's wait and see... Endless whining I tell ya, just wait and see....

I'm not starting a fight, that's just my opinion, and I'm 100% sure I'm not the only one that feels this way. :)

that whole schpiel is just plain dumb. it would be STUPID of ccp to not have integrated kb/m. there are a LOT of people including myself who refuse to play shooters of any kind with a controller. the fact that dust added kb/mouse support is the ONLY reason im even willing to play it at all. you honestly think that cutting an entire customer base simply because YOU dont like mice being in the game is a good idea? thats ********. thats a TON of money from microtransactions they would lose. the funny part is that the PS3 itself supports kb/mouse anyway, if i can control the PS3 with a KB/Mouse why the hell shouldnt i be able to play the games on it with them?

The turn speeds should vary based on which suit you're using. Is it comparable to DS3? In other words, are you able to turn at the same speed in the same suit with keyboard & mouse as you were with a DS3? Were you expecting an unfair advantage over DS3 players by being able to flip forward & backward in the blink of an eye just because you had a mouse & keyboard? The beta test is here to make sure that everyone enters a moderately level playing field. Enjoy!

Dust 514, the first cross platform shooter bridging two completely separate games, originally announced as intended for PS3 Xbox and Wii, wants to give its users as many options for control as possible. First world problems.
