Everyone who uses a joystick, HOTAS, footpedals list what you have here and hopefully PGi will have a chance to make sure they all work. I have been beating my head against the wall for quiet a while trying to get my setup to work for MW4.

Saitek x52 joystick and throttle
Saitek Pro flight rudder pedals soon

[autogyro]

I agree.

Thrustmaster Warthog
Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals

[Morashtak]

From the FAQ;
Q. Will MechWarrior have support for custom mapping joysticks/other input devices? (multiple device support?)

A. We have partnered with some of the industry’s biggest hardware manufacturers and will be doing our best to support all types of joysticks and flight systems.

Not a joystick, but if there could be default controls set for people who use something like a MERC Stealth keyboard from Steel Series, mainly the gamer pad part.



Has most the the keys near WSAD but a few are missing like z and x. I mean I would probably reconfigure them if there are no default settings for it. But, hey a thought.

Yes yes. But there is no harm in politely reminding them. You completely missed the point of the thread.

Please support mine, PGI!
It's a Champ GEMINI model JS-2020; just over twelve years old.

I suppose there's a reason why I never got accostumed to using one of those d­am­n things.

lucky... my precision pro bit the dust a few years ago, and they don't make them anymore. I replaced it with a logitec, but it isn't nearly as good.

[Sarvus Trask]

Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas X Flight Stick

[Joe Mallad]

Maybe they will release a duel mech joystick setup for the game

[Propnut]

Same as Autogyro:

Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS
Saitek Combat Pro Rudder Pedals

(TrackIR 5 too if they will slip support in for that, it would be great!)

[Banditman]

Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB. Please. It's not super fancy, but it does what I need it to do.

[Torrix]

Saitek X52 throttle and stick
Saitek Pro-Flight rudder pedals
TrackIR4 (using TrackIR 5 software).

Hoping it's all supported, and yeah, if they went dual-joystick, I'd stretch for that

(I'd love a Warthog setup, but can't afford that, wife would off me in my sleep if I got those)

[Malap]

I have a complete CH setup, jorstick, throttle and rudder pedals i use in Aces high, i hope that gets supported

[x Maddog x]

Thrustmaster Cougar + CH Peddals.
Works fine, but the precision of a mouse is not comparable :-(

But I play with the joystick, no matter what it cost me in game.
For me a Mech has no mouse and keyb for steering control

The second think would be, joystick turret return, so you can hold the target, and if you go to center the turet follows
But this is hard to program, cause you must do that for every mechtype. And every mech has it own turret radius and you can tweak the radius with xp-modules.
But I hope.
