Title: *Compact* controller for SC?
Post by: suicidal_monkey on August 01, 2015, 02:45:48 PM
I would like to get something other than a mouse for SC but, as I live in London where space is at a premium, whatever it is it needs to be compact and easy to (dis)connect and to pack away into as small a space as possible. I'm not after a flight-sim quality setup, but it'd be nice to have something with enough axes/buttons/levers to (try to) do some of the clever manoeuvres I read about :flirty:

Anyone know of such a thing? :ph34r:

I don't know about "compact" but you might want to watch the live stream from GamesCom on Friday as one of the reveals is slated to be the new Star Citizen HOTAS.

I'm interested in seeing if it supports analogue strafe controls 😎

I think most of them are too big for what Ben has in mind. Not seen anyone try a controller yet.

Been there for a while already, and you can customise the setup, including setting up sensitivity curves, etc.

That's a point ... anyone tried using a PS3 controller? :)

The others all sound too big :ph34r:
