No Joystick Support*

IamRoyalFlush

In the process of requesting a refund now. They can have my money back if they get around to supporting joysticks.

Created a work ticket, they called me back. Asked about joystick support for PC players, told them I couldn't get mine to work. There is NO JOYSTICK SUPPORT! Tried to get me to keep game because new and they could fix it. Told them they shouldn't release game for PC without joystick support for flying, had it in other Battlefield games I've played. Told them not waiting for a fix. Ask for a refund, they said okay. No PC joystick support, not buying.

EA has had flight sims forever....now they don't want to support Joysticks...Just screwed the PC owner / Builders !.....

If I wanted to use a gamepad I'd play it on a damn console. Give me JOYSTICK, or give me DEATH (of BF1)!

EA was going to sell Joysticks at one time....Hows that for a kick in the pants !?

i just got a refund. i'm so disappointed with the decision not to support joysticks. i've been flying with a joystick since bf1942 days. no joysticks is a slap in the face to veteran battlefield players / loyal customers. if they ever add support for joysticks i'll buy the game. until then RIP battlefield.

It's a feature in the game that clearly has an issue with it, which is preventing it from working. Why would there be an option if they didn't intend for it to be added?

You can all go ahead and get your refunds, but make sure to check back as I don't doubt there will be a patch or fix for the issue.

Why pay top dollar for a game that isn't even finished? Joystick support in battlefield games should be a given - not some patched in after thought.

isnt there a petition website or wewantchange website where we can lobby together. they may not listen to single unhappy customers but a big group maybe ?

COME ON DICE YOU CAN DO IT, otherwise I'll ask for a refund... flying with keyboard and mouse..... what the hell were you thinking???

Good to hear they are working on it. I am enjoying the game so would keep it anyways but have no interest in flying with mouse/kb or a gamepad. Can't wait to fly in the game with a stick!

I'm old enough to know how this will shakedown:

"All joysticks will be supported except the exact make and model that rainkloud owns."

I hope "not all joysticks will be compatible" means joysticks that are one device are ok (TM1600), while others with, for example, a separate throttle (tm Warthog), may not be. Hopefully, they also have an analog throttle, which had to be hacked to work in BF3/4. It would be a start anyway.

But all mouse's are working on Bf1. A joystick is like mouse.

I am looking forward to EA_DICE fixing this, as aircrafts are very important part of gameplay in BF1. It would be a shame when developer spent so much efforts to put so many great elements together, to create the BF1 immersion, and yet I am to fly a plane with a mouse

If you care about your sales numbers.................you should fix this messed up BS.
You will not get the PC players to move over to game boxes. We will move on, but maybe that's what you want.
A response would be nice.

The only reason I bought BF1 was to fly the biplanes with my joystick on my PC and now you do not have that working and sold me that without telling me. I hope that you are proud of yourselves.
