Joystick Support is ridiculous in this game!
Can I just say to the developers, that I think your joystick support is absolutely pants!

It took me way too long to get my Speedlink Phantom Hawk joystick to work with this game.

In the end I ended up using the xbox 360 ce emulator and fully disabling the steam controller setting before I could get mine to work as required.

In the future if you plan on releasing a sequel to this game, please make sure to support a wider range of joysticks.

the problem is that thrustmaster paid them for exclusivity. otherwise any joystick would work as one joystick is the same as any other 2-3 axis analog imput.

Developers don't read these forums, you're wasting your breath. Go e-mail them directly or something.

Almost a year now and you still complain about 4k and stick hotas support. Come and play dcs world with your stick hotas or whatever you using. Why you want to play a arcade game with hotas? For me this is stupid.

Problem is namco hide for some reason support of other no thrustmaster joystick , however most of them are supported. You just need manually configure all buttons and axis in Input.ini file for they.

Why *wouldn't* you want to play any flying game with a flight stick? This is one of the weirder gate keepings I have seen.

Imagine playing Mario Kart with overpriced force-feedbacking manual-gear-levering steering-and-pedals peripheral.

No all HOTAS are super expensive and focused to use in simulators. No all steering wheels are focus to use in racing simulator.

Fine, that explains all. The world holds a lot more twisted riches than I believe, who just want to waste money on the games which are PERFECTLY PLAYABLE WITH GAMEPAD.

This. I got mine used for 20 bucks. That's less than you have to pay for a decent gamepad when it's new. And in games that support it, it's a way better experience, arcadey or not.

Because your HOTAS fancy stick is cheaper than SCUF Impact or Razor Raiju never means

Hey, it's better than Nintendo selling a $10 chunk of plastic shaped like a wheel for the Wii and Switch just so you can pop your controllers in there and pretend it's a racing wheel while you hold it up in the air.

Oh, I'm just being hyperbolic. They also had some springs and screws to extend the trigger buttons.

Personally I don't see the problem so long as the game in question has a first person mode.

I almost forgot. Screw plastic, let's go with cardboard and string that costs even more than the plastic does, and is likely to degrade and self-destruct!

Those plastics and cardboard crafts are for making children engaged and happy. We can't compare them to actual gaming peripherals.
