is controller support coming?

[Gokris]

Just trying to see if pc version will support controllers since console launch is tonight anytime soon?

I don't get why PC users would be against adding controller support. There is simply no way to be as good on a controller as with a mouse and keyboard. So, considering this automatic disadvantage.... and being a disabled guy myself (but not a kind of disability that makes me unable to use keyboard and mouse)... I am inclined to side with anyone who needs any non-game breaking options added for them and anyone who just wants to play on a controller.

Library Right click on Rust Properties.
Controller then set it to Enable Steam Input.
Then go back to Library right click on Rust Manage Controller configuration.
Browse configs. (At this point use your controller to set it up)
Community.
Then pick the one that has the most likes and then customise it to your liking.
In game you may have to adjust mouse speed.

This works with most Steam games.

also horrendous with no vibration

Using a controller optionally for vehicles wouldn't be too bad

The point of the matter is there is no way you would be able to control the recoil on Any gun using the joy stick on a controller period so it's brings another problem to the table do they add aim assist or make the recoil pretty much none existent like they have on console for controller players there's never gonna be a way to perfectly balance it someone's always gonna have the advantage if you make the controller easier and can actually be able to compete with mouse and keyboard why would any new player use a mouse and keyboard why spend 150 hours learning the ak recoil when you can just use a controller and if your not disabled yourself you have to be a real piece of ♥♥♥♥ to use disabled people as you're battle cry to try and get what you want

Slippery Slope arguments are used when you don't have any good arguments to use. Adding controller accessibility will absolutely NOT lead to this massive imbalance you fear so much. It also does NOT mean that they will inevitably add aim-assist and remove recoil. Stop projecting your fears and insecurities onto others please. It's a game dude.

And oh yeah, I do not need to prove my disability status to anyone in order to advocate for accessibility. Literally no one is "using disabled people as a battle cry" to achieve selfish desires. It's called wanting accessibility REGARDLESS of disability status.

If adding controller support ruins the game for you that much then just stop playing it.

Anyone who's just against adding controller support is smooth brained as hell, usually elitist, and maybe just scared, but definitely don't belong in this conversation. If your game doesn't have controller support in 2024 it's not a very good game, considering the prolific use of controllers among the gaming population, accessibility demands, and well established means of translating game actions to controller. You can play MMO's on a controller at the highest level of play. It's clearly not a technology issue.
