Just popped this game on and played the tutorial... amazing how it feels to be back on it. Still need to jump online but I gave a quick look at the server list, it seems like there's a mix of room options available -- at least a couple with max AI.

I won't be online Thursday night for SWB2 on X1, but I might give this a whirl on Wednesday night and see if I remember how to play this game.

Do people play this with mouse and keyboard or do you recommend using an X-Box controller for it?

Yeah I have been playing the original on Xbox off and on lately by going through the campaign and it's been fun. I prefer playing with an Xbox controller when on PC. Just has a more consistent feel to me plus I don't exactly have a great mouse/keyboard setup being on a laptop. lol

We can definitely setup a server and game night on this, just can't do 24/7 dedicated server yet..

That's a dangerous question, lol.
I think it boils down to preference. If able to use a controller, I will usually opt for that. Some FPS games I go on game by game basis. Some are better with controllers, some have more options and easier control on Keyboard/Mouse.

I think this game is basic enough in controls that a controller is probably better, as we are all most likely more used to that with this game.

If you are playing through steam and using a controller, I recommend starting up Big Picture Mode (Controller icon top right in Steam). That is the only way to adjust controller config when in game and through the overlay.





If you press the Xbox Button (If using xbox controller) while in game, it will bring up the steam overlay, where you can adjust your controller on the fly.

You can also browse for community controller configurations for the game, and use setups that other players made public for others to download and use. I'm using this one here with my Xbox controller. BTW, you kind of need to use one of these or customize your own if you want the Roll function. The Default Gamepad setup doesn't map ALT key, which is Roll key on the PC version.

Ah I never knew about those controller configurations, Pretty cool.

Yeah there is a good community one under the suggestions that maps out the original Xbox control. Although you may have to adjust the right stick sensitivity on the mapping scheme outside of the game like I did. The mapping was set to the max and anytime I tried to aim, my reticle was flying all over the place

Yea, I had to modify the deadzone on the right stick because it kept on drifting a lot.

Good call. I had to adjust the sensitivity too, forgot to mentioned that.

Good games last night, once I got my controller set up. Even once I did, it was difficult to get the controller sensitivity issue fixed.

After some browsing on Steam, it appears as if there's no way of getting it as perfect as it would be on a console, so I think I'll take my chances with keyboard and/or mouse in the future.

Is there any way to ban players? JulianHeinreichsberger and mad_lord_punt are both a bunch of TKers.

Hi, thanks for bringing it to our attention. Our admins will look into it as soon as they can.

Out of curiosity is there a way to work up to being an admin?

Their last couple games they played legit, but they were top TKers in previous games.
