Suggestions for the incoming native controller support
-
Hello, I've recently learned that a native controller support for IW5 is under development which is amazing (hopefully IW4x will also benefit from it)!
I firstly thought about a server setting which would filter players depending on their input type: keyboard and mouse only, controller only and mixed, but according to the Plutonium Twitter page owner, it seems that player base is too small to be split like that and I totally understand his statement.
Then I thought about a server setting with configurable automatic team balancing depending on players input type in team-based game modes. It could be either enabled, disabled or the opposite (all controller players vs all keyboard and mouse players).
An icon could be added near your player name to inform other players about your input type. An option could also be added to switch between controller and keyboard+mouse to avoid any confusion and prevent usage of both at the same time.
What do you think?
Thanks again JTAG for doing great work, and thanks to all the Plutonium team for making all of this possible!

"all controller players vs all keyboard and mouse players" would be unfair for people who use a controller.
I like the idea with the icon of input type next to the player's name like latest Modern Warfare does -

I like the idea with the icon of input type next to the player's name like latest Modern Warfare doesController support will not be unfair vs kbam players as there is no aim assist* So any decent KBAM play would be able to outplay a controller player.

JTAG True, I did not notice the aim-assist
