keyboard and mouse vs xbox 360 controller

[James]

i need help making this dicission before the game comes out.
i usaully use the controller for games like assassins creed but i have never really playing a third person shooter game on the pc before.

Any recommendations?

Controller.

well, try out the kb/m first.. if its too fast due to mouse acceleration or something, use controller.

You can switch on the fly. You'll have to find out for yourself.

Mouse and Keyboard controlls in Watch Dogs are terrible, I strongly recommend a controller.

It took like 5 years, millions of dollars, hundreds of people to develop, yet they couldn't assign a single guy to properly code mouse controls.

I will never understand this logic. It completely ruins the whole game for PC gamers and makes me not want to buy it ever, even for 5 dollars.

Least you can fix mouse acceleration with the config.

This is true and works like a charm. But still controller just plays better due to the buttons/sticks having pressure sensitivity. Which makes it so you can turn gradually or smoothe if you don't just mash the buttons down. Pc keyboard keys are just too precise and quick acting for driving (IMO).

I personally play these kinds of games with my controller sitting in my lap. Nicely enough watch dogs switches button prompts from xbox to pc instantly the moment a button is pressed on either device. You can also turn up/down the amount of assist the controller recieves.

The controller is nice because it is less keys over all, such as walk/normal speed is handled through the stick and the radial menu feels a bit better on it. Controllers feel really natural in these games.

If you play with the mouse, I urge you to go into the config like Fatal said and change it so mouse acceleration is off. World of difference and takes all the lag/slop out of the mouse.
Also driving with the keyboard will consist more of light taps on the keys so you don't turn hard when you are dodging traffic/obsticles. IF you played GTA4 for pc on the kb then thats pretty much what it is like.. very darty instant turns.

You can't go wrong with kb/m and if you get a controller later or already own one, then you are set.

Is this 100% confirmed? Not every game is fixable via config files.

They probably did that on purpose hopping people with pirated copies wouldn't figure i out. Should have known better..lol That will likel be fixed with a day one patch. If not at least we know about it know and we can fix it ourselves. Hopefully a new driver releases in the next few days. That beta driver still doesn't get picked up by GeForce Experience like past ones, so I'm skeptical about using it.

Thank you, I am not buying it based on what you say.

No, the m+k controls are still terrible. It doesn't fix mosue acceleration either. It was a misleading fix. You can only change mouse smoothness which already is turned off by default.

Eh.. playing with my wireless 360 controller..

[SHOKK♥]

Shooting with mouse obviously the best, controller although better for driving... it's a kinda pick and choose, or use both!
