"this game needs a controller for best experience" - no thanks
uninstalled demo before even proceeding past that message, not sure if the devs noticed that this is steam and some/many/most PC players play on PC to get away from console nonsense

I agree with the initial sentiment. I do not like using controllers so a game that either requires one, or heavily recommends it due to how the mechanics are designed, is an instant no from me.

I just dont like using controllers.


edit: I saw others saying its fine on kb+m. I tried it and it works fine without a controller (except for left ctrl being verbal commands.)

Seems neat and Ill keep an eye on it as the game develops

dude its okay with a controller there is no tedious controls that the mouse would benefit inventory dragging ect and everything is held down button menus and quick select menus
You should have given it a try its kind of okay and can see what it could become with more content Its a bi directional control game so mouse would be a bit much . if you played project zomboid its similar in movement. I thought about it as well when it came up but once played realised this is the best way and also driving and helicopter is always better controller. You ask anyone playing GTA with M&K they always switch to controller when driving. Its got that feel to it. Hopefully devs push it with their full ideas and also listen to players to add more stuff

This is a very casual game that doesn't require very accurate inputs achievable mostly with a mouse. Stop being one of those salty kids from back in the day with the console vs PC war
How is aiming with controller compared to KBM? I just used PC controls to see how they would be. Demo is too short for me to care to try with a controller. But I'll definitely try once the game comes out and I can grab it.

Entitled much

Im alittle bit torn.
It has a foxhole vibe, regarding the aiming, which is a mouse and keyboard jobby.
that being said the general movement and vehicle play is controller all the way, for me.

spoilt for choice.
PC master race, as always. :)

works great with mouse and keyboard

Plays fine on a keyboard. I admit it's probably better on a controller, but I had zero problems.

:steamthis: Yup. I have no idea why that message is there, the game works perfectly with m/k. Just press ok and start the game.

Likely an error from the developer when they were configuring the game's manifest file. I heard those things are a bit tricky to manage exactly.

I hate keyboard and mouse but I got used to it. If I can do it so can you. Controllers are perfectly fine.

Very odd to be so against a controller, pc is all about options not just about m/kb, and a controller is way more fun to use for most games.

Each to their own, controllers are terrible for everything other than driving.

I played the entire demo with K&M without an issue. Stop whining just because steam gives you a popup.

So you're not going to buy the game just because it isn't mouse and keyboard only?? Why are you so upset over the game having controller support anyway?? Some games simply work better with a controller.
