DUST Search - Controls are the only reason why I can't play this game

The reason hardly any PS3 shooters after UT3 supported mouse and keyboard is that it's damn hard to balance for both simultaneously. Console shooters suit a heavier, more deliberate gun game (ie Halo) that takes the limitations of analog sticks into account, while PC shooters give up the ability to simulate weight so everyone can spin like inertialess tops as they try to out-headshot each other.

It's almost impossible to keep one side happy while satisfying the other. Right now it seems to be stuck in the middle, making nobody happy. They should still emphasise the pad over mouse and keys, and if that means losing twitch accuracy so a heavy stays heavy, that's just how it is.

The problem is, that has no place in a video game. You could also balance akuma vs ken by making it so akumas kick button does nothing if you press it more then once every 10 seconds. And while in theory that could be balanced and make it seem like akuma has a slower leg, infact its ********. Not everyone likes playing with the same settings, some ppl play with extremly slow turns so they have high aim some ppl sacrifice aim for turn rate but telling someone this is the speed you can turn at means you are catering the game only towards those ppl who are comfortable with that exact setting. Other ppl won't be willing to learn your restrictive controls.

He is most obviously a CoDboitard Jarhead as we see the 2 distinct patterns on display here: 1. Twitch 180s requested ala CoD Standard. (Only reason for Twitch is if Sticky Auto-Aim Assist is present to babysit such irresponsible movements with a Lag Compensation Diaper to cloak your Client-Side position heading as you Dropshot to disadvantage the other Player's Aim-Assist in a game of "Who can abuse EZ-Mode Flawed Mechanics best???") 2. Uses the least balanced, homogenized Fighter as an example for balancing......& still has no idea what he is talking about in regards to the example he proposed (Akuma is not even close to a Kick Heavy Character..... Maybe this Stooge meant Chun-Li???) Please stay away from ANY other Game as you will regret it indefinitely. Or EVOLVE & try Guilty Gear/BlazBlue or Killzone, throw in a Metal Gear or 2, get swollen L337 Muscle Memory & stop living like the Brainwashed Shototard CoDboi you represent. The choice is yours :P
