Until I can use a keyboard and mouse in FPS settings against people with controllers, I don't give a fuck. I came up the hard way and hate the exploits possible in pretty much every competitive game. In that regard, I want to have the real advantage I care about. Precision. Finger agility.
Until a console gives me that option, to lay waste to Player and (1)Player and (2)Player like Half-Life gave me joy back in the day and leveled me up beyond what I could've imagined by bunny hopping and tau jumping and using audio A3D to at least hang with the best...Chosen1, Neo, aCiDtRiP, 007 and more...
I'm an old now. I'm not going to let a bunch of teenagers talk shit to me with a mic unless I can lay waste to their feeble understanding of victory by attrition. I've found it's uncomfortably hard to use a controller to walk up to a victim and use the squat/crouch function to tea bag their carcass.
When console gaming gets with the mainline of competitive PC gaming, it might be worth it. I've got no use for MMOs and shit like that. I'm an FPS/driving guy. I've played Australians and Croations alike no matter the lag, we competed fair. Console interfaces are fucking garbage.
Give me my mouse, my keyboard, my console to tweak my views (FOV 110, weapon_on 0) and let me do my thing.
Apparently this is not the best business model. Huh. For a minute there I was (1)Player getting a face full of Glock or crowbar, but life is like that. Spawn. Run. Die. Repeat.
Oh, just for the record, if Gabe debuts HL3 as an Xbox Scorpio exclusive I will take money out of my retirement fund just to get in on it. Only if I can use my keyboard and mouse though. Always good to temper expectations...
- jamesgeck0 10y agoI can't tell if this is sarcastic or not. Mouse precision is so much more accurate than controllers that the Overwatch team literally considers using KB/M on consoles to be cheating.
- 6stringmerc 10y agoIt is tongue in cheek. I don't want to play unless there's a choice. KB/M vs console controllers. Pick your poison, get down on it. I happen to think using anything but KB/M is dumbing-down handicapping. Canon fodder takes many forms.
