Nmaharg Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8cqYNk-48Y Let me know if you guys want me to put together a guide. I don't want to spend the time doing it if it's just going to be ignored.
System_TOR Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Well I now know that it is possible to play well with a controller, thanks for the insight, I doubted it until I saw this.
JoeRetro Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 id be very interested in reading a guide on this! in the meantime could you put together some quick notes on what kind hardware/software you use and how you manage all the "keybinds" ? thanks so much!
origamikitsune Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 I would absolutely love to know what sort of set-up you are using. I think this game would greatly benefit from controllers - seems almost made for it (at least for guardian, where 99% of my abilities are instants). My main questions would be: 1.) Will it work with a Microsoft X-Box Controller for PC? PS3 style controllers hurt my fingers and wrists. 2.) Are there enough buttons? With a D-Pad and 4 buttons with four modifier buttons (two triggers, and two bumpers) I count 40 button combos for binding to abilities... That's 16 less key/button binds than is available on the action bar - and I already have to decide between things getting dropped if I want to actively use everything I have available. And that doesn't even address companion abilities. Regardless, I am very interested in this. I think for PvP especially it would greatly improve my viability. As it is, I have an X-Box controller - but I don't have a mouse that lets me bind movements like strafing, so I have to use the keyboard for movement, and that sucks.
