Controller Support

Is there controller support for this game ?

Nope. Mouse & Keyboard, like they all should be.

agreed, who plays an FPS game with a controller? the response time and accuracy would be horrible

The inventory system wouldn't work on a gamepad, that's why most modern games like are never as in-depth as this. The developers have to add support for gamepads so they inevitably dumb the entire game down and simplify the controls. You'd probably not even be able to lean around corners with a gamepad, they'd have removed that for the console release, then that would be forced on your PC game and you'd have an inferior game.

Amen!

Someone posted a video on Youtube, using a Steam controller and they got blown away in the cordon by some bandits, also the player was very slow with the inventory.

Of course you'd get ripped to shreds by the Monolith.

Update : I went ahead & installed Pinnacle game profiler & I am now able to use my XBOX360 contoller to play this game I programmed the buttons to fallouts control settings. It works great.

Let us know how far the consol controller boi makes it before rage quitting and returning to fallout in shame.

Too many buttons for a gamepad to work efficiently. You may get better results from the steam controller, but individual results will vary. I would NEVER use a controller with this game. Other games it works great with.

why are all pc players so bad with a controller? If you are decent with a controller they generally work pretty well. Its just most pc gamers can't figure them out

I think you are missing some of the accuracy that the mouse gives. The reasons why some titles work with a controller, is that there is design in it.

STALKER is a PC exclusive. It is one game I would say REQUIRES a mouse. You may be able to left-hand a controller for movement and other functions, but mouse is essential. I have tried this game with an xbox controller, any number of 3rd party button interfaces, a 360 controller and a steam controller. Best results were with the steam controller. You can really "tweak" settings and make headshots possible.

Its not about pc players being bad with controllers, it is just that controllers are terrible at accuracy.

Console babies, what a pathetic bunch of players. Go play your console with your controller, that's what they're made for anyway. Leave PC gaming to the real players and for real games. 'Get out of here, Stalker.'

Everything is better on keyboard and mouse. We are not saying its hard. Customising mouse sensetivity, binding the keys you want, binding extra mouse keys (which i have never done) all make for a much higher dynamic and skill cieling than a controller. Ie you can only get so good with a controller before it becomes a handicap.

I have played this game with a controller and beat it prior to steam and I am starting a new playthrough with a controller on steam and it isn't difficult. Accuracy is up to the gamer not the hardware. If you are inaccurate with a controller that is simply your issue, no one elses. Trying to force someone to use a mouse is crazy and this is coming from a primarily pc gamer. People have to stop taking their preferences as facts.

Is fact watch pro fps gamers from pc then from consol. there isnt a comparison at all
