Xbox 360 controller support method

I figure out a way for Players with xbox 360 controllers to play!

If you want to know how to play using a 360 controller on PC games just Google that. this is assuming you already do that already.

Anyway I got into Dirty bomb after watching Angry Joe’s video. despite his less than stellar opinion of the business practices I decide to try it out. So I played until the basic controller support was taken out…
UNTIL I remembered I also used a program to play another game that lacked controller support minecraft.

So I fired up Minecontrol for minecraft and after a bit of key binding I was able to get it right.
When you start up the program unbind all your keys in configure button, this program is only for you to use the right stick for mouse inputs. Then jump into game and rebind there. There are a few issue like if your controller is as old as dirty like mine you’ll involuntarily start typing in chat accidently, but let that be better incentive to get a mic. Team communication is WAY better that way.

Thanks :D. I only hope this brings more players in. Honestly though I don’t know why the controller support was removed. It worked well enough when the game first launched

probably to stop people claiming “it’s a console game”, SD is usually pretty strong on accessibility so good chance it may return after full release

Xbox controllers are good for comfort, but it is not as accurate as a mouse.
