brenda lovely.8213 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Hello everyone, Did you know if GW2 plan to have a controller support? I have a disease in my hands and after a bit of playing kb/m it hurts and i need to take a break. (raynaud disease) FF14 have fully controller support and it would be great to have the same here.

Dawdler.8521 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 You can easily use a controller as an emulated keyboard so it's already support on all games in existance. That includes GW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That includes GW2. Have you tried FF14 with a controller? That's absolutely not the same as an emulated keyboard. I tried emulated keyboard and even the steam thing for controller, that's not really playable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danikat.8537 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Arenanet are, or were, working on adding controller support but I don't know what's happening with it as it's been a while since I heard anything about the project. But in the meantime there's a topic here with lots of discussions on different options and suggested key bindings: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/9417/controller I also found several youtube videos and web pages dedicated to promoting and explaining different ways of setting up a controller to play GW2, but I've never done it myself so I wouldn't know which one/s to recommend.

Thanks for the tip. I tried the way of setting up controller with 3rd party program but it doesn't work properly. It emulate a keyboard and mouse but it's nothing alike a real gamepad support. I just wanted to know if arenanet even thing of this and it seems to be. i'll just wait then :tired_face: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
