Same, the controller I use isn't detected by SK at all. -_-

I use the mouse for attacking and items, and a Wiimote nunchuk for movement and shielding. I can't imagine playing the game any other way. x_x

Did controllers stop working in this update for some reason?

I haven't made it back onto SK yet (Still downloading ._.) And I use a PS3 controller.

If I can't use my damn controller.

How am I supposed to heat my things.

Considering several members

Considering several members of the staff have talked about how they use controllers when they play, including Nick, I'm certain this is an error.

In the meantime, Xpadder will help - if you run it in the background it'll allow you to map controller input to keystrokes. It's not PERFECT but it'll get the job done temporarily.

Thanks; I forgot I have Xpadder. It's indistinguishable from direct input for me.

If controllers don't work, then report it as a bug.
Why is it here?
Complaining here isn't going to help.
And keyboards aren't that bad... ._.

Keyboard is perfectly fine.
WASD to move, mouse to change direction, mouse wheel to scroll through weapons, left click to attack, and right click to shield.
Not hard.
And why not post this is the patch note's discussion?

By the way, demanding doesn't help.

Serell, saying that the suggestion is horrible is not even an insult. That's just simply implying that he completely disagrees with Juances' suggestion.
Also, some players just don't like playing or can't play with the keyboard or the mouse. Is it that hard to understand? Just saying.

Xxenohart, you are overreacting. Please stop and just wait til the bug fix takes effect.

Thank you, Eurydice, for informing us about this. Much appreciated.

ah well, just looks like an insult to me. Whatever.

"Also, some players just don't like playing or can't play with the keyboard or the mouse. Is it that hard to understand? Just saying."
I understand that.
Damien is overreacting and demanding.

ABCDEFG- No.

By saying that she makes horrible suggestions is also saying that her suggestion was horrible, wouldn't you say so? Besides you disagreed with him by saying it works fine, right? Doesn't really matter in the end, does it?

Yes, yes, he is and I do agree that he should have stopped and just simply claimed that the controllers don't work at this point in time. Lol.

Could someone please clarify *how* the controller needs to be fixed?

I have a two-analog-stick controller with four shoulder buttons--perfect for advanced play (Robotron style). How would I go about setting this up? How did it work before? Could you set up four axes? What's wrong with it now?

Don't bother about your gamepads, the game freezes anyway and it crashes before having the chance to finish any mission.

Damienfoxy, stop being a whiny and bossy 12 year old. It's not hard to play SK with the keyboard and mouse, even if you play with a laptop. I know so because I play with a laptop and I know loads of other people that play on a laptop and use the WASD keys to move and mouse to attack, shield and switch weapons.

BTW, all your raging won't make the devs work any faster. If anything, I hope it makes them go slower to see if they make you rage enough to quit the game. SK doesn't need people with your kind of attitude.

Usually I would use an x360 controller, but it seems all direct input devices (joypads) aren't working on this current patch. Will be fixed soon (along with the stutters / freezing hopefully)
