Gamepads that work for CoH
I have a post in the mac boards about one I found to work: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showp...00&postcount=4
The Logitech Dual Action gamepad that has a mode button and LED in the middle below the "start" and "select" buttons and has a cross on the D-Pad works.
The Logitech F310 did not work for me (I use a Mac, so ymmv).
I'm not even sure how you could play CoH with a game pad. >.> So many things that need clicking....
Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

Just seems inconvenient imo... But that's why its my opinion eh?

I have an old Game Elements controller that I currently use for CoH. However, it's old and it's starting to not work correctly.
I have Xbox 360 wireless controllers that I used for Champions Online...but they don't work for CoH. I'm looking to get a new one and I'm wondering which ones work for CoH. Thanks in advance. |
It is in the Player Guides section... Guide to Guides
Triumph: White Succubus: 50 Ill/Emp/PF Snow Globe: 50 Ice/FF/Ice Strobe: 50 PB Shi Otomi: 50 Ninja/Ninjistu/GW Stalker My other characters
The Xbox 360 controller does not allow that.

Or this tool (seen it recommended with alternate controllers, haven't used it myself): JoystickCursor
Triumph: White Succubus: 50 Ill/Emp/PF Snow Globe: 50 Ice/FF/Ice Strobe: 50 PB Shi Otomi: 50 Ninja/Ninjistu/GW Stalker My other characters
The one big thing for me...is using the right joystick to "look up" "look down" "turn right" "turn left".

As for the 710, I never tried that one but I would guess it's got the same guts as the 310. It may have been CoH in general or CoH + Mac client, but either way Amazon didn't give me any hassle when I returned the 310 stating it didn't work with CoH.
As for playing with a gamepad the only real issue is things that require left clicks as that cannot be assigned to any non-mouse button or done via macro. If you can avoid location targeted powers it just takes getting the hang of manipulating the camera to speed up tab targeting. Goto_tray # macros let you get to all of your powers.
