i dont know for shure that it is only fans have told me its enabled but steam doesent have text in the discription does any one know for sure

im sure it iswouldent see why not.

It has been stated and confirmed by the devs that there won't be controllers support on the PC. I like playing with a controller once in awhile but only for singleplayer games where speed and ''twitch'' skill don't really matter. But for a pure multiplayer focused on teamwork having a couple of guys playing with their controller would just ruin everyone else fun/hard work. Not to mention you would get really frustrated by playing with people with mouses and keyboards.

great time to pul out my smith and wesson 500 and pump my self in the face i cant believe this

Considering they said early on that they'd be using PC footage for most of their videos, then show console button commands on all of them, and previews have stated that they're playing on PC using controllers...

Got a link to confirm that one?

Also, it's on Game for Windows, which by default includes the option of using a controller.

Yes. What is more they were playing on pc with an xbox controller at the early videos. It was quite misleading from the developers.

i'm hoping it is controller compatible. i may not be as accurate as some players using a gamepad but i'm more accurate than I AM using a mouse

why dont you get it for a console than?

i may do down the track, but 50 bucks on steam vs 90-110 on console what are you picking?

wow that svcks are you from Australia? why the hell are the games so expensive there?

Post from Associate Producer ''Smooth'' confirmed it.

If you want to play with a controller online, buy it for console.

Yep.

"We don't officially support any controllers on PC, so we aren't required to support the X360 controller either."

Very conclusive with the placement of "officially" and "aren't required" in that post.

Appears not to be in, but won't rule it out as an option down the track. Or an "unsupported" option.

Yeah, whatever... No Controller support means what it means.

Not going to argue over this.

Come on.

I was saying you're probably right. But mentioning it's still possible, because it is.

Sorry for being a smart*** about it though.

How can the game even get GFW approved then? :blink:

GfW only requires that if it supports controllers, one of the supported controllers is the XBox one.

Doesn't require controller support.

Really? Hm, that's news to me. Because literally every GFW game I've played (like Batman Arkham Asylum, Assassin's Creed 2, GTA IV, Mirror's Edge, GRID) had gamepad support.

Follow Omb1's link to the SD forums. Someone in the thread posted the quote from the GfW requirements.

is it difficult to F ing to have controller support why do they have to be so gay

I don't see how difficult it is to use a mouse. It just takes a while to get used to, and if you do end up using a controller in a community where Mouse/Keyboard dominate, nine out of ten times you're going to be at a disadvantage.

Takes a while to get used to a controller too if you use a mouse, though.

I just don't see the exact problem whereas it seems like people prefer getting the shorter end of the stick here. However, I could see your problem if you're stuck with a ball-mouse.

F it im pissed im canceling my pre order i cant believe these [censored] devs

im good with keybourd and mouse and the controller but keybourd and mouse give me authritis pain spacificly my left pinky finger and to be honest i think i play better with the controller so thats why i like it

This is [censored] and unacceptable.

If I want to play with a controller on the PC I should be given that option. I have come out on top in every game I use a controller with more than once, the whole "it's not as good at aiming" thing is ridiculous. Crysis 2 I just beat my whole clan in a skirmish for fun in terms of "ranking" so obviously the gamepad is fine. If it's not accurate for you great. Still doesn't mean it shouldn't be supported at all. This is completely ridiculous Bethesda, Splash Damage.

The game for me is now unplayable. I have no rumble support, I have a great keyboard and mouse but shouldn't HAVE to be forced to use it to play. If I could return the game I would this is a ridiculous decision and branding "games for windows" on it is obviously a misleading advertisemant.

Along with the tiny "you HAVE to use steam to play" [censored] on the back of the box.

I wouldn't have known unless I read EVERYTHING on the back that you HAVE to use [censored] ass steam to play. Also nowhere on the back does it say gamepad is not supported.

Misleading.

[censored].

for me its i personally like using a gamepad, ive been playing games on the consoles for like 8years , now , all that time i have been using the controller, also i liek controllers cas movement is easier, and when i play on a computer i dont like having to take my hand off the movement keys to reach some button on the others side of the keyboard to change weapon, use map, ect. im fairly new to pc gaming and i go back and fourth on which on i use


also my keyboard has a slick coating on it or something so if my hands get a little sweaty then they slide around some which drives me crazy,


well, i guess im not getting it, bethesda wont get my money till they bring gamepad support (and there is not ONE GOOD REASON NOT TOO) . i would get it on xbox sept i cant read the text in most games on that screen and im not about to pay 60 bucks to not be able to read the text


also i dont have a confortably computer chair and so i will sometimes rotate my computer screen and sit in my recliner while using my controller

What's wrong with Steam?
