After watching your stream I'm really impressed by how well you are able to use that controller. That is so cool. I don't even know what to say, but choosing P was the right decision.
Your decision making while talking is... not as impressing ;D

how.... i can´t evan play a shooter properly with a gamepad controller! How is it possible?!

I am deeply impressed but still think mouse + keyboard is inferior!

but still awesome!


That is literally only a matter of getting used to it, I played console fps for about 8 years and a lot of pc fps as well and I don't really notice a difference in aim when switching between the two, the hole fps only works with m/k is just a myth created by fps pc players who tried to use controller a few times and failed, it literally takes years to get good with a controller. Also the hole "but console fps have aim assist" thing is bs as well, there h ave been console fps like halo 1 or shadowrun with no aim assist and people were able to achieve perfect aim in those as well, only modern titles like cod or battlefield use lots of aim assist.

While I have played some rts on consoles before, and especially halo wars did an amazing job with the controller layout, what you do with your stream is amazing. I watched it for a bit and if it wasn't for the cam in the corner showing you using the controller, I wouldn't have noticed much of a difference from a regular mouse/keyboard player. I played some rpgs on the pc that don't support controller using one and using the analog stick as a mouse is hard as fuck, so mad propes to you for hitting such a high level in a game like star 2 using it, definitely one of my favorite streams to watch now!

Also if you want to you can just sent me your xpadder file and I can write down in this thread how you mapped it out.


Come on... Don't overestimate too much the pad. Try Playing painkiller / q3 / quakelive with a pad. I bet my life you wouldn't even kill rafa in a thousand years. :/


Dude people barely kill rapha as is

OP is awesome though!

OMG this reminds me of the good old PS1 - C&C Red Alert days. Just go on if it fits to you.

this sounds really cool, just one thing perhaps this should be a blog rather than a thread?

Also I wonder if this would ever work as zerg, My first thougt is the macro is too much "screenjumping" for an xboxcontroller,

So I guess zerg is so easy you can do well even while playing on a controller?

I bet someone will fail to realize this is a joke

Hes obviously using a program such as Xpadder to bind keyboard + mouse actions to the gamepad.

Using the Ctrl + (hotkey) would double the hotkeys available. You can also hotkey D pad's arrows aswell so don't forget that aswell guys. He should be able to use around 32 hotkeys via hes gamepad.

Ive done this alot of times with MMORPG's without pad support. Its hard to use your analog stick as a mouse so mad props to OP for mastering it.

Looks cool, I can remember myself playing C&C/Red Alert on PSX without any problems so Im not that surprised someone is playing RTS with a controller. Ofc to play it @ such a highlvl is a impressive feat, but playing rts with controller aint as bad as one might think.

If you click his stream link, at the bottom there is a videos section. Unless he just took them down within the past few minutes, I was just watching some. Good stuff ;D

All of these games include strafe jumping which is obviously impossible to do with a gamepad...
But even if I'd play any of those games in a shitty console port against rapha I'd probably kill him just based off of him sucking with a gamepad. I don't say if console and pc players would play a quake esk game against each other the console guy would stand much of a chance (though in the case of shadowrun pc and console players could play with each other and I never felt like either had an advantage, BUT shadowrun was made with console controlls in mind, no quake like game is and due to strafejumping being impossible with a gamepad it never will). Arena FPS is a very special topic and I could talk to you for about 2 hours how Bungie tried to make it work on a console and what things they changed to do so, but obviously you can't just take a game that is build with using a keyboard and a mouse in mind and tell me I should kill a progamer in it using a gamepad...
