CONFESSION: I Hate Gaming With Mouse/Keyboard

[CDHoward]

I just can't get used to it. And I simply don't like it.

The XBox pad just feels SO much better, faster, more comfortable and more accurate.

So, will a wireless XBoxOne pad work on PC, after installing their drivers? Or does it have to be wired?

[ericlee30]

Dont give up on it just yet bro, Trust me, once you get use to it, you will not want to go back to a game pad. You feel more immersed with a keyboard and mouse.

[Thebman712]

If you use the wireless adapter so it connects and have the drivers, then yes

[Guest Haduvokone]

if you have an windows 360 wireles receiver

[Toddwjp]

yes it will, as long as you have an appropriate wireless connection on your pc. and id say controllers are nice for any game that doesnt require precision shooting eg an fps

I'd rather jump into a pile of thumbtacks than play FPS games with a controller, but for non fps games I often prefer controller. I have a wired xbox controller, works plug in play in most games. the wireless controller should work as well, just needs the adapter for pc.

Sure, I'll give it to you that an xbox controller may be more ergonomic, but there is no way that it is more accurate than mouse/keyboard.

While I respect your personal opinion... Couldn't you just made this topic like "How to connect Xbox One controller to PC?". There was no need for the hate on keyboard/mouse. You're just asking an argument.

Feel the same way as you. For FPS, and (most) RPGs keyboard + mouse combo are lightyears ahead, but for third-person action games such as the Arkham series or Shadow of Mordor etc the gamepad feels much more natural. Because of this I've set up a Dualshock 4 for use on my PC, extremely easy. As is setting up the 360 controller.

Don't get me wrong, bro. I love using keyboard and mouse for everything else I do.

Just not games ★

I've got an Xbox one pad, I use it for the odd game; Elite Dangerous, Dead Souls 2 and DMC are the 3 games I'm using it with ATM.

I try and use mouse and keyboard for as much as possible, obviously RTS, FPS and 4X are all M&K. Most RPGs too (except DS2, pad is way more accurate for that game) and all 3rd person games I've played except DMC.

M&K is superior for almost all games, there are a few exceptions, that's why it's preferable to have both options.

Mate: Could you list the steps, please?

And, if I want wireless, what exact product do I need to get? What kind of adapter?

PS, I know that with wired, you just use a long cable with a mini-USB on both ends to connect the pad (unless I'm mistaken).

I game on my PC with a controller as well. I use Mouse/Keyboard only for FPS games, and games that don't support 360 controllers. I agree, it feels more "right" to play with a game controller.

Yeah. That's exactly what I mean, bro. It just feels more right. Maybe its because I'd always played games on XBox previously, from the XBox through to the XBox 360 (I always hated Playstation pads. And I never bought a Playstation, except the very first one).

But yeah.

[Snickerzz]

Thats not a confession, thats a preference. Dont be ashamed of it

[AvoK95]

I like it because you don't have to think about what key to press when you need to press it. It has vibration, and it has pressure sensitive analog sticks and toggles. All games support this, and make experience better while KB/Mouse don't. 

 

I always preferred PC over consoles. I actually bought and sold an Xbox 360 to buy a graphics card for my PC. I use the 360 controller on the PC now, and bought myself a second 360 and RGH'd it to emulate PS1 and SNES games, and play Forza and Halo

Exactly

By the way: Would you recommend using the 360 or XBoxOne Pad? Is their PC compatibility advantages with either one?

I don't own an Xbox One to try it. However I have tried my friends' consoles. It's basically the same controller, but the toggles have vibrations as well. Personally I liked the Xbox 360 better, because the vibration in the toggles made it harder to play racing games.

Bro, I always have to look down to make sure I'm pressing the right key, tho 0_O

EDIT: Well, obviously not *always*. Just with keys other than the basic directional keys and stuff.

wtf bro

[AlwaysFSX]

Omg improving is hard so I'm going to quit. You're worse than me with guitar..

[CDHoward]

wtf bro

I am using an HP generic keyboard from a previous computer, tho. Sooo, I suppose that doesn't help.

(I can't afford a decent one yet).

Get a decent mouse and buy CS:GO. You'll get used to KB/M in no time

[SIGSEGV]

Me too, I prefer Trackpad+Keyboard
