please add controller support
any claim that a game is 'better' with mouse and keyboard is simply unimaginative. controller support CAN be implmented by any designer worth their salt. even aiming and shooting can be achieved with a control stick and aim assist. fact is, I cannot feel comfortable with a keyboard since it is designed for typing, not playing games.
game controllers are designed for games.
please add controller support it's really not nice to have games sitting unplayed simply because of lack of forsight or laziness or stubbornness.

p.s. anyone who says mouse is needed for aiming, need to look at 'The Fall'.

It'd probably have to be modded in because the developer would currently be working on either A. Heat signature, or B. fizing the mysterious start glitch.

This is due to the mouse and keyboard being seen as the most predominant form of user interaction on the PC, and I simply think that the preferred device is whatever the user feels comfortable with, because although a controller may be more comfortable for the first 5 minutes it will never attain heights of the amount of available control options and macros that a mouse and keyboard setup has to offer.

Ok, that came across as "I AM PC MASTER RACE".

That's just what it is to me, there are probably better players then I who use controller.

thanks for your balanced reply.
I didn't think it sounded PCMasterRace at all.
I could try setting it to joy2key, it's just a little disappointing. never mind. seems like the dev is more busy than to do this. maybe he/she can see this and get somebody else to add it in?

+1 for controller support

All peasants hail to the PC Master Race! The only acceptable peripherals are: keyboard, mouse and eventually a flight controller (but only the most expensive one).

I don't know, I can't imagine putting controller support on this game. I got through some of the missions because I was fast with the mouse for the crosslink stuff. I would love to see how they would do it.

May want to try the Steam Controller when it's released: it was designed for games that don't have gamepad support. I'm not sure I would spend $50 on it when I already have a perfectly working gamepad, though. Maybe it'll go on sale?

That said, thank you for starting the thread I came here to start myself. :)

Yes, I realize that I'm necro-ing an old thread but I guess some of us have been naively waiting, hoping that one day it would be added on. It's too bad as it looks like it's never coming.
