Maybe someone with some math skills will come in here and tell us all how many different combinations of commands you can give with a controller that has 14 buttons, two joysticks and a track pad… but I’ll tell you what I know…it works, it works great, and it’s fun! Maybe that’s why so many people failed at 25’s back in the day… maybe they we’re looking at their keyboard while they stood in the fire! Hahaha This whole thread sounds like a bunch of Noobs who don’t know how to do math. Until you learn about it, try it, and master it, just keep your opinions to yourself, because obviously, you have no clue what you’re talking about… every function of a mouse + every function of my keyboard + every function of a controller (never once looking anywhere but my screen) I actually have more buttons than someone without the controller. And as far as TOS - nothing I do is against the TOS. Most people have no clue how I run 3 or 4 toons at once, but then they don’t opine about it either. If you haven’t tried it, and know nothing about it, then just shut your “all knowing” (know nothing) pie holes and quit bashing something you’re personally just too stupid to do. I multi-box 2 toons with a controller with NO problems and you all say it’s “impossible” to play one toon? Haha. I still have my mouse and my keyboard and use both in conjunction WITH a controller. You made the mistake in all your ignorance of assuming that playing with a controller somehow means my mouse and keyboard are in the closet. I play with a controller… you haters have no F’ing clue what you’re talking about… I can run circles around anyone with a controller and do often. That’s pretty dang good for a ‘filthy casual.’ If you combine it with some smart macros, or perhaps GSE, you can really nail the efficiency / effectiveness sweet spots. All of my classes/specs are a little different I’d love to hear what others do.Īll of the available buttons add up to almost 30 possible actions. I don’t have a good strategy for the shifted modes here. The unshifted buttons I use for pet management, mounts, food/drink, longer heals, etc. That leaves the D-pad with all three modes (unshifted + LB + LT). Sometimes, depending on the class/spec, these are a core part of the rotation, other times they’re just things that are handy to have access to. I typically focus these on actions that help me get away, or that I need in a pinch. these are buttons that you have access to pretty much no matter what else you’re doing with the controller. You might think to use the RB and RT buttons to be part of your core rotation, but that isn’t always the best idea. Things that are more reactive to what the opponent does, or “OH #&*%!” kinds of things. LT-shifted face buttons are for the more contextual types of actions. Then, depending on the class and spec, I have LB to shift to secondary actions that I perform a little less frequently. Actions that I perform all the time are on the unshifted mode - just regular presses of the face buttons. Instead, I’ve made allowances for my rotations using the X, Y, A, and B buttons using the bumper and trigger shifts. I’m unimpressed with arguments from lack of vision.Īnyway, in my experience, trying to make EVERYTHING available from a controller is just asking for frustration. I too am a long-time IT vet, and I’ve made a lucrative career out of doing what others said wasn’t possible. I’m astounded that someone who has no idea how to make it work would spend so much time telling you that it’s impossible. I’ve been using ConsolePort for a few weeks now with pretty good results, regardless of what someone who has never actually used the mod may think is possible.
