SMART with mouse vs controller

Post » Wed Aug 18, 2010 4:13 pm

Im just curious If it will be harder to do some parkour moves with the controller. I mean you have to look up and down if you want to jump over or slide under, I guess u have to look to the side when running on the wall. I remember when I played the team fortress 2 scout I had to make some fast and precise moves, which was easy and fun with a mouse. Can you be as agile and have the game do what you want with a controller as a mouse?

It shouldn't be too difficult to manage the parkour moves with the controller. After all, Assassin's Creed was console exclusive, even if that wasn't first person.

Well then luckily you will only be playing against other players who share the same console, so you won't have to worry about getting pwned by a guy on Steam if you are on Live. The power of console separation. :celebration:

You don't have to look up/down if you're manually controlling your actions, so I should be fine.

A controller will NEVER be as accurate as mouse+keyboard .


Actually that's a fact ! They did some research on cross-platform games to prove this **searching link**

I would say that is a positive. It expands the length of firefights

Jump and crouch buttons while sprinting.

Also makes your movements about a half-second faster than relying on the SMART button.

They've said that in multiple previews and interviews.

I use a controller on the PS3.
I know that a mouse is much more accurate and faster but I can relax lean back in my couch and enjoy. PC always was uncomfortable for me. As long as I don′t have to fight against a mouse I will use th Controller.

I really can't play FPS with controllers,i can't change the precision of mouse,or i'm just not that good with controller in an FPS.

Well then luckily you will only be playing against other players who share the same console, so you won't have to worry

Exactly,problem solved :)

Oh i feel a console war coming on. this should be good!

At first it was weird for me too and I svcked at it. But once you get used to it, it just feels more rewarding to score with a controller. At least for me :smile:

I was a PC gamer too for years, than I got Bad Company2 for present. I did not even touch it for months, but when I did it was really awesome a lot more natural for my preference. Plus I have about a 4times bigger tv than monitor and a more comfortable seat. I consider myself a console gamer now.
Will you get the game on pc?
