Xbox Controller > Mouse Keyboard

Post » Fri Jun 03, 2011 3:47 am

I've been playing Crysis both on the Xbox and the PC, I have found out that I can do better with a controller on both platforms. However, on the PC I tend to get higher kill streaks and score the most kills in almost every game.

Now how can this be? I thought you guys loved your keyboard / mouse setup? Wasn't it supposed to be superiour in every single possible way?

Since all I'm seeing is, that when I play on the Xbox, I get tougher opponents and I do worse, I still play good, but not as good as I play on the PC.

I'm practically destroying everyone in every game on the PC with my controller...
I cant do the same on the Xbox.

NO. I have not played the earlier Xbox demo, the only reason I got it in the first place was because the PC version didn't work, so my first experience on the demo was March 3rd, and soon afterwards I started playing on the PC when the servers started working again. So I dont really have a headstart on other players.

If anyone doesn't believe me, or wants to prove me wrong. We can go play a couple of matches online. You can see for yourself how it works out.

Aim assist On/Off doesn't really bother me, I'd rather play with off as when I'm sniping the Aim assist screws up the aiming.

That's the perfect example of what M+K can do. Accuracy is as good as moving pixel by pixel. Do that on a gamepad and ur teh man!

Better yet, why do you care?

I think mouse-aiming in C2 is a bit more difficult than in C1 on purpose, at least without adjustments (correct me if I am wrong). That is why playing with controller feels better than in other games.

Try to master C1-campaign on medium or a higher difficulty with the joypad and you have proven something.

A screenshot of the ending score doest support your claim in any way at all. Infact its not even a screenshot, you have taken a picture with a camera which is what most Xbawks players do.

Also, ive searched for your name on the PC demo and it doesnt exist. In addition to this that picture was taken of a screen that is over 3000x2000 pixels which leads me to believe that its actually a television. Strange.. Why would you take a picture of a game you have clearly played on Xbox and try to pass it off as if you have played it on the PC with a controller?

Ill happily play with you any time. PM me your PC Demo account name and ill add you to friends.

Good day sir.

I tried with both a controller with aim assist and M/K, i tend to do better with M/K but i guess its a matter of training and experience with each type.

According to you keyboard players, I should be crushed by everyone else in the game...
Since your using your fanshy-smanshy keyoboards.

All I'm trying to say is, that if your a good player, it doesn't matter wether you play with a keyboard/mouse or a controller.

Uhm, my camera takes 18mp pictures = 5184x3456 resolution... It has nothing to do with my monitors.
Look up "X71" as my PC tag, I had, and still have logon problems with this account.

I'm playing Nvidia Surround with 2xGTX 460 at a 5040x1050 resolution

You know that crytek put aim assist for controller to handicap the keyboard /mouse advantage.A player must not be judged by the input device he uses.Your speculation is based on totally wrong hypothesis .Believe me without aim assist you can be crushed easily by a player using mouse/kb on your same lvl

Erm, I know it's offtopic, but C1 was piss-easy, even on Delta. The only things that ever gave you trouble were Scout swarms and the fact that you couldn't drive and shoot at the same time (Onslaught aside). Don't see anyone having much trouble with it, even using a controller.

It might also be that I have played tens of thousands of hours of FPS games on the console. Over 40 thousand multiplayer games of Halo combined...

Maybe I'm just good and can deal alot of damage, no matter what I'm using as an input device?

Yes, you will be crushed. But not so much in crysis 2, where AIM ASSIST is doing the shooting, not you. Take a game with no AIM ASSIST that rewards shooting to the head (not like cod where 2 bullets in the fingers of the legs kills u) and you won't make a kill out of 100.

Haha, people who think that everyone is automatically better with a keyboard & mouse are so stupid xD
It′s all about what you′re comfortable with:P My brother(a console player)tried to play crysis on my PC the other day, and completely svcked. But then we plugged in a controller(into my PC, that is. Wich means he was playing against people using a mouse)and he did way better.

I might be kind of a PC fanboy myself, but sometimes people are just stupid.

Did you turn off aim assist, or is your anecdotal evidence as completely useless as I expect?

LOL i'm sure you do play at that resolution. Since that's completely stupid and a bogus aspect ratio, this makes you sound like a fool.

I removed the link and send you a private message... I couldn't find the forum rules anywhere so I'm not sure if posting gameplay of the single-player beta is allowed =/

Anyways, the aspect ratio is 3x1680x1050 (3 monitors) and the image will not be stretched out at all, everything I see on my side monitors are extra.

Still think that the 5040x1050 resolution makes me "sound lika a fool"?

I'm horrible at shooters. And no, I didn't use a controller, which is why I said "I don't see anyone having trouble", as in "I doubt", not "I'm certain".
