Scum Is 100× Better With A Controller

[Fail Man]

I see the developers say they don't prioritize controller support. How foolish. I played the game on both M&K and controller. Controller is far more superior, natural, etc. Especially for combat. Sure navigating the menu is not as smooth. But you can used to that. Honestly I use a Controller Layout from one of the Steam Communities and it's 100x better. The developers could have a way bigger audience but they choose to continue to make these silly business decisions based on their own personal preferences.

No, we make silly business decisions based on manpower and resources we have and prioritize on finishing the game and all of the planned features first rather than dedicating one of our few precious programmers on this undertaking.

So you can already use a controller, and you're actually using said controller, but you're complaining that you can't...use a controller?

so instead of giving players a choice between mouse and keyboard and a controller, fail man who favours a controller wants everyone else to use a controller - why, if i`m happy playing with a keyboard and mouse how does that effect him in any way.

Also, controller doesn't feel natural to me at all. I'm a kb/m guy since the beginning.
The only times I hold a controller is playing racing games on the console with my little one.
Last time I used it for a shooter was Medal of Honor on the first PS and it was a horrible experience.

And again, it's already possible, so I fail to understand what the actual problem is...
Just because Scum doesn't have native controller support, doesn't mean you're forced to use kb/m, at least for the most part.
I'm sure there's some actions that don't work yet.
But I'd rather see devs working on more important things than that tbh.

Mouse aiming on the snap is so much superior in all ways to twiddling thumbs on a controller, when it comes to survival in twitch games. While someone who is truly adept and has used a controller for everything since they were 3 years old may come close to that level of ability, 95% of the time, a good mouse player will win out in the fight in shooter games. That's why you don't see controllers being used much at pro eSports competitions. Not talking about the controller-centric 2D fighting games, which of course were made for them.

I play M & K for everything except Vehicle controls, and then, I switch to my Xbox controller for those.

Try going up against a m/k user in a PvP situation with your controller and you will see how superior a controller is. ROFL
