Controller vs Keyboard n Mouse!!!!

[iGrudge]

I dont know about what lames have been saying. But im a controller user, and i smack keyboard and mouse users like its nothing. Im not saying controller is better, its just more confortable TO ME.

I don't like keyboard too but you can't beat a mouse even if i would say that it is far too unreal easy to aim with it.
What is best for me is gamepad + mouse (with some +buttons) and xpadder.

the big issue with keyboard is that devs assign one control on a key when if optimized can sometimes hold many controls as "crouch" can be" horn" in a vehicule on the same key when you don't have (yet) to crouch in vehicules .
With the many controls comming in Arma3 devs should really optimize them not to loose a bunch of players that would crumbles in front of the controls panel as i did in arma 2 and reason why i didn't take the time to play it more

Thanks but i'm a hybrid player , i only play with the left side of a pad and with a 3 sided buttons' pad to have 2 normal buttons and the thrid to double all the controls ( except forward backward) with a shifted configuration.
I use a TrustM dual analog that is light weighted

What does it matter? People have preferences. If you like controller that's cool and if you like keyboard and mouse that's cool. But did you really need to make a thread about it? Just odd in my opinion.

Agreed. It's at auto aim I draw the line. It's a skills based game. Auto aim just belittles true and skillfull gamers.

Bast, i use my xpadder just to configure leaning to my controller. and Mojo, i thought about using the controller in my left hand for movement and mouse in the other, but never thought about configuring with all the commands i need on the right side. Great idea!!! My only problem with keyboard is how the keys are placed and moving with WSAD

This isn't even an argument, as far as input devices go the mouse and keyboard are unquestionably better for first and third person shooters. The amount of precision and control you can garner out of them are second to none, this topic is embarrassingly idiotic.

So how idiotic does is it make you to even reply, IDIOT!!! And if you knew how to read, i stated that nothing compares to mouse. But keyboard is just keys, how the hell can you be more precise with keys fool

First off no you didn't, not in any of your posts so don't be calling someone an idiot when you yourself don't even know what you wrote...

Second it's pretty simple actually, it's call controlled and timed key depression; not to mention you can make sharp and rigid actions that are not possible without keys. On controllers you do not have dead switches, you have pressure switches which change depending on pressure applied, this applies to the joysticks as well.

Pressure switches are a completely imprecise form of switch for movement as they cause you to under or over compensate based upon the pressure applied. Dead switches rely on time the key is pressed, you move exact distances per time the switch is active.

Go back to your Xbox...

This isnt the first thread on this IDIOT!!! This is the extended version. And a controllers buttons have the same f'ing reactions and timing as a keyboard IDIOT. Infact a controller is more advanced, pressure sensitive, motion control, you name it. But you would have no clue about this because you're an IDIOT!!! Have a nice day

There is absolutely no way a keyboard can out perform a controller, on the other hand a mouse is so much more precise than a controller that it is not even fair to compare them. ( I always use both at the same time, controller in my left hand and a mouse in my right )

press 10 Buttons at the same Time @Gamepad .... u can´t .... u can use WASD on a Stick yeah ... Lean left lean right ? .... and thats while going stance on more to left ? (AND THAT´s while strafing?) dont work .... xD .... u can play on a controller yes ... and when did we need to press 10 Buttons at the same time ? thats also right ... but u will never reach the full movement / control with a Gamepad in Arma III ... so pleeease ... take care of Keyboard / Mouse Controls ... dont do the same mistake like EA on Battlefield ... i have absolutley no problem for Controller Support (so i can fly with Hostas :D) im not hating controller ... i just say u dont get the same dynamic as with Keyboard / Mouse ... and numbers just dont tell me anything ... btw this is Arma ... if u want to post "Hahahah i got Highscore Screenshots" .... plz post them on other Forum´s
