Every time someone brings up a controller vs mouse and keyboard, most of if not all comments will push towards the OP to “switch to mouse and keyboard” because “it’s better!”
In my eyes, the person is already accustomed to controller, they’re used to the sensitivity, and if not it’s a quick change.
If they’re going to get used to mouse and keyboard they need to:
-
find a reasonable mouse
-
find a reasonable mousepad for their situation
-
find out if they’re a wrist aimer or an arm aimer
-
make sure their windows mouse sensitivity is set to 6/11 for some reason otherwise everything else will be messed up
-
find their “optimal sensitivity” many of which tutorials are (subjectively) hard to find (the good ones)
I’m both a controller and mouse and keyboard user but I find it easier to aim with a controller. It feels natural.
Show me a professional competitive gamer who plays with a controller. I’ll wait.
There are lots of Apex Legends and Halo players who do, but there are zero Counter Strike and Quake players who do.
Without specifying which FPS game, OP’s post is kinda pointless.
I could argue that at the time counter strike came out, pc and consoles were very separate and practically no one was using a game pad on pc.
