Thats what I'm saying, theres nothing wrong using a joystick instead of a keyboard, thats the mouse which matters

Reading every comments and hearing feedback from streams etc, a lot of players are complaining about the current hawken
Well I have seen them use keyboard + joystick as well, but it wasn't as common place. But I know ppl that have done it and some that refuse to play games that don't have joystick support. Because lets face it, why shouldn't all games have joystick support in this time and day_
And from what I've been hearing, I've heard FAR more happy with the change responses. The biggest issues I've heard people complain about are the lowered ttk and the balance.
1) lowered ttk is a result of them changing a huge chunk of the meta to be less face hugging and more strategic battles. Where skill, teamwork and strats have a big influence. Previously you could just mindless do a lot of things in Hawken without any serious repercussion. So, obviously some people are not going to find this new change fun since they have to be more aware and less mindless.
2) The match maker is going to have a rough time at start because it is a sorta closed beta with a smaller population than the open beta of Hawken. With more people the less this will be an issue. In the mean time, the elo system will be a bit off because of a smaller play population. As one should expect. This will obviously get solved as more people join the closed steam beta and the game goes live.
