Controller support

[nomadedge]

Does Warface has an option to enable controller or any plans on adding it? Would love to chill on a couch while playing some pve.

A quick update. I set up a steam input configuration specifically per game. No luck though, in-game only right stick works as a mouse cursor, no other buttons. I'm using an Xbox One controller connected via Bluetooth. Steam itself and all other games work just fine.

Hello. Warface is available on Xbox, PS and NS.

If I want to play with another controls, I’m buying another controls, not whole new platform and games for it. And that’s exactly what I did long ago.
Valve even have done it for developers who can’t, or for some reason don’t care for adding controller support. And it’s been working for Warface in the past.
It’s pretty obvious from other topics I’ve brought alive, that within last year something was broken with steam input. Could you pass that info somehow to development team please?

Do you mean that you used to play Warface on Steam with a controller? The game has never had an official controller support.

I’m speaking of steam input - system which translates controller input into keyboard and mouse, so game with no controller support may be played with one (like i set long b to imitate z - prone, short b = ctrl - crouch or slide and etc.). It works nice for many games out there, and used to work for warface. Now it’s broken as i described in my first reply for this topic. And some people have already complained about it before, just like I do now.

As a defense measure, the controller support was disabled last year in August.

Defense against what? How possibly disabling input method would make a game better? And what about people with disabilities who have to use different input due to their condition? Most developers try to make games more accessible. Why do warface team go the opposite way?

Defense against clickers.

I understand it’s not Your job to make these decisions, but still You conveniently answered only one of my questions. Next suggestion then - disable shooting mechanics so there will be no more clickers/macros/aimbots. Or shutting down the servers must eliminate every single one violation.

I swear these developers are actively working against my desire to play this game.

I used to play this game with a controller because of carpal tunnel syndrome.

I'm a software engineer and the bull**** about removing controller support as a security measure against clickers is just a reflection of their incompetence as developers.
