PC flightstick support not an improvement? So sorry your microsoft dictated game experience won't allow this. You should sell that thing before it red-lights anyways.

1. Gamepad works fine , you are a nublet if you cant learn how to play any genre of game on a gamepad. I would dominate you in the ass with a gamepad in this game.

2. PC flight stick support is not needed for a game that is not as in depth as a real pc simulator . I say again , you dont need the extra support when all the commands can fit onto a gamepad without any issue.

3. I repaired my 360 myself and modified it to run cooler , it has been going for a good 2 years. and i see no reason for it to stop since the root engineering mistake of the box has been removed

That is true in general, but not in the case of BoP.

We all know you are upset that the patch is coming to the ps3 and not the Xbox. I have warned you 3 times once today now and banned you once, we don't need it on this forum.

Gaijin has decided to do some different stuff on the ps3 because the system is not hindered by a company that only wants you to use their dedicated and authorized equipment. We should applaud Gaijin for doing the things they are doing hoping that other developers follow suit and try to expand their thinking on the way they make games. Maybe they should have issued a "hot fix" like you said to help in the MP points system, but I seriously doubt that all the people that have left live have left because of that reason.

Maybe they are thinking of different things with the sequel we don't know. A keyboard would be useful if they added fly by cameras, tower cameras, and other things like the original had. A keyboard made the first game great.

If we can't keep the forum clean with the insults people are gone.

Try not to add fuel to the fire. Thanks

I know the PS3 update is coming first, but why is it that every time it is discussed by Devs or otherwise, there is basically no mention of the 360 update?

The only thing has been said is that it will come later. They are not giving a definitive answer.

um , you are going to need to stop being so jumpy with your new moderator title.

I read the forum rules and in no place did it state that you could be banned for "Obscene language"

and in most cases its not obscene in the slightest if you are above the age of 7. some of the earlier warnings you gave out were just , but the last one you gave to me is just grasping for straws.

If you continue to send me warnings everytime i speak my opinion on something you dont agree with i will contact an administrator about your modship.

Actually, I think you can be banned for whatever freaking reason an admin or owner of a forum wishes. I seriously don't think it is worth your trouble to contact an admin and complain about it.

And about the gamepad thing, I'm seriously curious how good a person can get on those things - I just can't see something with such a huge deadzone being a thing of precision.

If you like (I think microsoft makes a PC compatible gamepad), you should see how far it takes you online in 1946 against people using full flight sim rigs. I would honestly be shocked if you could manage a kill against a competent player.

I think the gamepad works on the PS3 and 360 ONLY because most other players are using them also AND the fact that the deadzone is fixed right now. A supported stick (thrustmaster T16000) with adjustable deadzone will mop up against gamepad players in realistic and sim mode. If the PS3 version allows this, expect to see gamepad users going down in flames at the hands of my T16000 (it mops up pretty well in 1946 already).

Until then, my BOP is collecting dust while I play 1946.

Totally off topic (as if it matters), do you play FPS on gamepad?

I just don't see the point in learning to play most games on a gamepad.

If you took a FPS designed to properly support gamepad and mouse, then took the worlds best players from the PC and the best on consoles (gamepad users) and set out to see which control interface was more accurate - you'd see a heavy advantage go to mouse users.

Proof of this is the development of Shadowrun which has crossplatform play. The developers actually added autoaim assist for the gamepads and added an expanding reticule for PC mouse users to even the playing field. So essentially they had to gimp the mouse and keyboard setup so console players wouldn't get torn a new one.

Microsoft and Sony both realize this, so it's no suprise that despite the usb capability on both systems - neither support use of a mouse (with exception of UT3 on PS3).

I don't think consoles can keep delivering a satisfying game experience heading into the future if all they ever offer gamers is gamepads for most games. They need to open it up and allow gamers to decide how to they wish to enjoy their games. Until then, I'll never drop 60 bucks on a FPS on a console.

Really, the only games (other than BOP) I've felt were worth risking 60 bucks on were GT5 prologue and SF IV - both of which (you guessed it) have excellent alternatives to the standard controllers. BOP is collecting dust because flight sticks don't work like they should and using a gamepad is like wiping my butt with one square of toilet paper - too sloppy.

Anyone know if this PS3 update fixes the screen tearing?
