Arcade sticks give an incredible advantage in most fighting games (especially 2d). Obviously, they were born in arcades, so they were made with the stick in mind.

None of these communities ban the control methods or limit their use during competitive play. If anything, they encourage their community to embrace them because it leads to an overall better gaming experience at higher levels.

So why is the console FPS community the only one who is so entirely justified that alternate control methods be banned or segregated? I think the situation is being over thought by the developers who are all too tempted to giving in to lazy players who lack any real exposure to serious competitive gaming.

DS3 users are the dominat here because Dust514 is on PS3 so you think that forcing them to play with Kb/M is a good ideea?

Yes its forcing Kb/M if you want to have more chances of winning.

If you want Dust514 to die ahead of its time go ahead and make Kb/M standard for win , AURUM is doing already a good job at keeping most people away.

Dust514 needs filters for Kb/M and AURUM users if devs want more people to play Dust514.

If you like Kb/M so much you should play against Kb/M users , why play against the weak and disabled that dont use AURUM and Kb/M?

Adapt or die.

It sounds more like crying to me.

Pro / Vet league - Everything goes, all control types, any ping. Noob / Lazy league - Only DS3, only perfect Pings, and everything have to be bellow tier 1 equipment. Problem solved. Matchmaking already takes skill into account, or is supposed to. Just let it do that job better. Control type is irrelevant, results are the only thing that matter. Additional segregation just makes it harder to find a game.

Adapt or die. Adapt, as in, get a KB/M if you think that's so much better? Hmmm Also, you think CCP would seperate those who pay real money from those who don't, to lure in more people that don't pay money? Riiiiight :) Face it: if you're not paying real money, you're cannon-fodder meant to increase enjoyment and therefore willingness to spend cash for those who do i know and its sad That's because you lack the mentality you are supposed to have when playing anything related to the eve universe. You're supposed to view it as an opportunity to destroy peoples items that they bought with real money and take a dump on their efforts. Instead you're too busy whining about it. New Eden is about having a good time by making other people miserable. Actually, its that way in every game. CCP just happen to be the ones who admit it and directly engineer things that way.

If you're having problems now Mama, you're not going to be any better off if we all had to use DS3's. We will still end up running you down because we have a superior competitive mentality to yours. Quit begging for a lifevest and learn how to swim.
