> In an ideal world, the fix would be to not give half your players an aimbot, but you just know the product manager wouldn't go for that. Looks like they ended up adding a patch that tries to figure out whether you're actually using the controller.
No, this is the ideal world. Mouse users have more manual accuracy, couch gamers can still have fun vs. mouse users. Combating fringe cases (how many people actually plug in a controller and a mouse at the same time..?) makes no sense. This 'divide' worked like a charm on Titanfall.
- Dylan16807 10y ago> fringe cases (how many people actually plug in a controller and a mouse at the same time..?) There are good reasons to have both, and no reason to unplug either of them except to work around a buggy game.
- derefr 10y agoHeck, on a laptop, you can't even unplug the "mouse" (touchpad).
- clarry 10y ago> how many people actually plug in a controller and a mouse at the same time? How many people actually unplug things when they, uh, don't need them for a second or two? I leave my monitor plugged. I leave my power cord plugged. I leave my keyboard and mouse plugged. I leave my headphones plugged. I leave my hard drive plugged. I leave my ethernet cable plugged. Why should I not leave my controller plugged?
- izacus 10y agoYour controller will turn on and off to save battery and when batteries run dry and need to replace them. There's nothing more frustrating than running out of batteries in a controller and the game just locks you into mouse input... on a living room PC.
- throwaway7767 10y agoNot all controllers run on batteries. You can get wired Xbox controllers for example.
- bitJericho 10y agoI use wired Xbox controllers on pc.
