With 5 million sales on the PS4 already in the wild, no reason to not support it... it will likely be the new standard very soon. It works with Win7 out of the box. I don't know what Nidhogg is diong that only works with a few controllers. I also don't know what tools are being used. I just know it doesn't work and that is sad faces.

@Whiteloaf: If the game is created correctly, you do not need any software.
For Example: Mortal Kombat works perfectly fine instantly with the PS4 Controller

As far as I remember Sony said it uses Directinput.
The xinput wrapper I use seems to make the game run incredibly slowly, unfortunately.

Wait you actually expect microsoft to just bother offering support for a console controller that doesnt belong to them?

I mean it would be a nice gimmick, but seriously, if i was talking about how my Wii U pad doesnt get "plug-and-play" support and make it look like i was pissed people wouldnt take me seriously either.

Windows is Microsoft. Playstation is Sony. PS3 controllers don't get any driver support and PS4 controllers never will. You will always need to used third party driver software. This is very obvious reasoning. Think about it for more than 10 seconds next time.

Actually they made a standardized API for controllers that should work with any controller and is freely available. DS4 meets this standard and works in many games with out problem.

Keep in mind when this game actually started development and how considerably new the PS4 is. The developer of this game is not a team of hundreds fyi.

Keep in mind that the DS4 uses direct input which is a standard Microsoft API that has been around since before dev of this game started fyi

Keep in mind that Microsoft have pretty much brain-washed people when it comes controllers.
Directinput used to be the standard, until Microsoft suddenly forced Xinput upon us.

Why not both?

Ask the different developers who only bother supporting Xinput.
