Does this Support xbox360 Controller?
I see this game says Partial controller support, what does that mean? I bought Arma 2 at full retail price and refused to play it because they left out invert y. Why would they do that? I will not buy this game unless you can invert Y. Before you post on this forum know this you are a ♥♥♥♥ if you say "why dont you just use a mouse and keyboard". I use a controller for battlefield 3 with no issues and I still post in the top 5. I dont want an opinion on which is better i just want to know if this game will have full support.

arma 2 supported xbox controller but you could not strafe once you changed the controller mapping.

You can play the game on a controller, but, not all functionality is available while using one.

how about invert y?

I don't think there's an invert y setting ATM, as I've seen posts requesting the feature. As for all the other stuff you said on my profile, yes, the necessities like reloading and crouching are usable on a controller.

Arma 3 has a lot of buttons (50+) how are you going to map all of these keys into a 12 key controller, just wondering

You don't, that's why it only has "partial" controller support. You can use a controller for infantry combat, at the expense of a lot of flexibility. That said, the helos are pretty solid on a gamepad.

It isn't difficult to pick up the controls. Don't let something so miniscule ruin a great experience. This game is tops when it come to immersion and realism. Trying to fit so many controls onto a controller would be like trying to fit the entire Marvel series into a single issue. You could still read it, but it wouldnt be nearly as in-depth. Take it easy man. Add me.
