Controller Support?

[Quietstorm75]

Any ideas on how to use a controller with this game? Took me a while to figure out how to run the game now how do I do it using a controller?

Hello there,

Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne doesn't have controller support. You'll need some third-party software.

Best regards,

Tom G.

Maybe because this game is meant to be played with mouse and keyboard? But whatever man, gamers these days don't have patient for anything.

I suppose you prefer to use typewriters as well. Me, I'm not afraid of technology and its advancements. Including with the games I purchased. But more power to you "keyboard warrior".

Lol, advancements... The controller has barely changed since the DualShock eighteen years ago, and it's more problematic now that games no longer have fixed cameras and simple controls. Most modern mice let you perform seven actions whilst controlling the cursor/camera with superior precision and speed. That makes a lot more sense than switching back and forth between face buttons and the slow stick. A thumb just can't compare to an arm. The keyboard is also far more versatile than the left side of a controller. You have about sixteen (about twenty if you don't mind stretching your index finger) buttons within immediate reach of WASD, and you never have to completely leave navigation like with the D pad. The main drawback is that you can only move in eight directions and you don't have analog speed, but digital controls are also more precise in some ways. When you hold W, you know you are moving exactly straight. You don't have to account for sensitivity of speed and direction, and since your fingers are already resting on A and D, you can change directions more quickly. I really hope Sony gives us a new controller in the next generation.

Exactly.

Sorry, but never liked tank controls. It's unnatural and restrictive movement was a major issue for myself and others back in the 90's and early 2000's. Yes, it's great for straffing, but that's about it.

Arguments about a controller. I have a feeling this is the most intelligent discussion on the internet.

Does this game at least work with the Steam Controller? Trying to be a "keyboard warrior" isn't fun. In fact, it makes the game unnecessarily annoying.

It doesn't work with any controller, but since you have 39 hours in the game you probably already becomed a keyboard warrior, keep learning padawan.

It's actually closer to 4.

It wasn't running in Windows 8.1 without some trickery. Actually, I didn't even realize it was running for that long.

Anyway? Anyone try this with the steam controller? Can you map it properly?
