Where is it ? One of the reasons i got a new PS3 if to use the Mouse in a console, that sounded so cool to me, specially in a shooter game. But the Mouse support in this game is terrible, Is CCP having problems setting the sensitivity of the mouse with the PS3 ? Because it feels like a virtual stick, is not accurate at all, and i need a 5 meters long table to just turn 90 degrees. That is so disappointing, i was very exited about this feature.

It is a virtual stick, from my understanding it has to be implemented like so to allow for the turnspeed limitations to be effective across the board for kbm and sticks.

It stinks, but it's better then using a gamepad.

A few tips, use a low dpi mouse or a mouse w/ dpi resolution memory that supports very low dpi. I find a cheap mouse typically works best.

Don't go over 90 sensitivity. The jump to 100 is really weird and makes tracking nearly impossible with ADS.

Its because they're trying to balance DS3, KBM, and PS Move so that neither input method has an advantage. No offense to KBM users but CCP should have stuck with just DS3 like they originally intended, then at least the controls would be more precise and less sluggish because they wouldn't have to worry about balance.

So you saying that my gaming mouse is useless ? Because the lower i can go is 800dpi, well that sucks. I try what you said, thanks for the tips.

No offense taken.

Sometimes I think they should have just launched on PC. No offense.

Well they didn't, they went a console and should have stuck with a console controller.

Yeah, but they did advertise that Dust 514 will have KB/M support, something unique for consoles that will appeal to PC users. I'm sure Sony sold lots of PS3's because this specific feature, i don't want to use the word LIE, but i can't think any other word.

Actually I've been paying attention to Dust 514 since 2009 when my roommate my freshmen year told me about it. Since that point I watched every video that I could find that talked about It. I got into the closed beta a little over a year ago and shortly before I got in I watched a developer Q&A session during fanfest and one of the questions was about KBM the developer said there were no plans to have KBM support for Dust 514. When I got into the closed beta a year ago it only had DS3 support and still CCP made no mention of adding KBM. As the closed beta went along the console FPS gamers were dominating the battlefield and all the EVE online players who were in closed beta who didn't have as much console FPS experience complained and begged for KBM support so CCP gave in.

You're talking about the later stages of the game in their advertising, I was talking about the early stages pre-closed beta.

So next time you want to call some one a liar make sure you know your facts and history of the game. I was #1 in warpoints at the end of the E3 build last year so I think I know a thing or 2 about this game.

Cool, story. Bro.

I've followed this game for a bit also and there announcement of supporting KBM, before open beta ever released was the reason I followed the game and eventually picked it up.

Did some quick Googling and it looks like it was confirmed ~ feb 2012. Open beta didnt start until 2013.....

Hmmmm..

HmmMMMmmmm... "When I got into the closed beta a year ago it only had DS3 support and still CCP made no mention of adding KBM"....

HMMMMMMMMMM.......


HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM..... "Mouse and keyboard support announced 2/2012"

HMMMMMm.... that's 1 year and ~4 months...


hmmmmm


I think that makes you a liar :-(

Re-read my post I said CLOSED BETA.

Boys with toys :)


1. Keyboard and mouse... it is not perfect.. but all you need to know to right choose dpi for your mouse vs Dust options. That is it. The end.
2. It is not perfect from PC player that have more options and smooth playing,... but it is acceptable. The end.
3. From console payers point of view K/M is unfair. Post a lot of topics about cheating, geting extra casch for eq (realy 5-20$ for mouse .. that probably already have in home? vs 60$+ for DS3 (my country price) ) , that CCP should stay with DS3 etc.
This is somekind of cros-platform game... why we must stay in dungeon of console players ? Why?

I'm average player. I'm still improving. For me DS3 for that kind game is... painful. K/M is more preferable for me and comfort (stange for you I know). But why I can't use 'feature' more pleased for me ? I'm not automaticly 'god' of battlefield.

Now:
-try it (look at point 1 and 2 again, at last borrow mouse form your friend or dady)
-stick with DS3 if you please - I know a lot of players that are good with it.

Dont bother more. This is only smal feature :)

P.S. You can always buy pad emulator and use K/M without game support.

I use the 800 dpi setting on my mouse and i find it quite nice.

However keep in mind that since it is a virtual stick, the settings for the PS move and the DS3 affect it as well.

I turned the sensitivity on the DS3 to 100/100 and the move I increased the sensitivity to 100 and zeroed the deadzone features.

Then mouse smoothing off, aim assist off, and play with in game sens on the mouse until you're happy.

I use... 40 I think for the mouse, and my buddy uses 60 or 70.

After that, play for a couple hours, get a muscle memory developing for it, and pretty soon it should feel pretty decent. It does for me at least.

Now... input lag and terrible frame rates... no amount of aim fixes will help that. And this game runs ~20 fps from what I can see, which might also be why the controls feel so sluggish.

If you want to play a game based on KBM then move over to PC. Consoles are made with Controllers. Nuff said.
