The issue I have is that no weight should be given in any algorithm to controller type in match making. Let the end stats of the users and their skill (however CCP determines that) be used for match making.

Bad players are bad players and good players are good players. I really don't care what controller you use.

Once upon time
A few new clones ago
I was in your sights
You got me alone
You found me
I'm tur-r-r-ning
Still tur-r-r-r-ning.

I guess you didn't care
And I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard
You took a step back
And teabagged me, teabagged me, teabagged me-e-e-e.

And now I'm long gone
Back in the MCC
And I realize the blame is on me

Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Could've turned as fast and shot for the win,
Put my controller down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Could've turned as fast and shot for the win,
Now i'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, keyboard, keyboard, keyboard
Oh, oh, mouse, mouse, mouse

I use the DS3 in my left hand, and mouse in my right hand. Which category i fit into ?

BTW, one of the things a find the most appealing about Dust 514 is the mouse. I normally don't play multiplayer shooter games in the console, only in PC.

Take that option away, and most likely i will end up playing Planetside 2 or CS;GO in my PC.

You do realize dust has KB/M because some "kids" can only use KB/M.

I dont have a problem with this. Last time i checked this was a console game.

They shouldn't have had K/B support from the beginning, this wouldn't even be an issue.

And separating players by input is a good idea. Drop the PS Move (because its a gimmick and jacks with the DS3 controls), and split the K/B from the DS3 so the K/B users get irritated and then finally take it up the butt an switch to DS3 to be like everyone else or quit this game altogether.

i'm ok with this, mouse and keyboard is like playing the game with training wheels and rather not have to go against people who can point and click to get a kill.

Do not separate by controller type; you will destroy the game community.

Didn't all the KB/M people QQ when their turn speed was reduced once though?

The way I see it both sides will NEVER agree on a balance. Because each side will always be biased to their side.

But I honestly don't see separating the 2 would work at all.

Should have just made this game DS3 only.... Would have squashed the debate there >.> (I mean honestly it's the reason most console games don't allow KB/M support)

KB have an advantage with tanks this is known.

My personal experience with KB on infantry movement is that its identical to ds3, there are those that argue its faster on kb, I say turn down the deadzone on the move controller options as that seems to have effect on the controls sticks of a ds3.

The main issue is mouse vs right stick, and even the major issue isnt the precision diffference, i know many players who can aim as precisely with a ds3 as they can a mouse, but mouse is easier(to a degree).

What makes mice powerful is they can allow for fast and minute movements in one setup. Ds3ers only avenue is senstivity, Turn it up all the way and you get faster turn(currently 100 stil gets outturned by mouse, that said the continous turning of a ds3=advantage on turning of turrets over mouse). Anyway there isnt a variable way to effect turn speed without affect cursor speed(therefore precision aim speed). The solution is balistics and/or quick turn option like a fast 180 option for ds3 to compensate. Also seperate Hip and ADS sensitivities.



That said a hori turbo controller with its adjustable selector on control sticks ~ same as adjustable dpi programmable mice. Point is you can't control everything, modded controllers are also a reality in most games but fortunately it seems that the burst/tac ar weapon recoils have eliminated that need, Though im curious why i havent seen anyone apply it to the burst HMG's yet because that would be some epic QQ tear collection and likely to result in a ban cause it would be hella obvious.

Point is the disparity b/w kb/m and ds3 isnt nearly as big as it is in PC land and are closer together than ppl think, there are of course exceptions and both inputs have a relative advantage/disadvantage over the other.

Fact is its a perception issue, most of the top players in this game are all DS3 currently and whether you want to believe that or not its truth.

The major real advantage of mouse over ds3 is turn speed especially 180. Its 3s vs 1ish second. Create a quick turn option and perhaps some sort of ballistic function so that if you are at the edges of your stick on the x-axis the velocity of the turn increases, then players can maintain a small senstivity to maintain precision on aim while still being able to make quick turns. (Problem solved).

Not really, KBM have huge advantage and we are tired, play with controller and im sure you are not that good , thanks
