ive been thinking about picking this game up for my pc but was wondering how the contols are with a mouse? what would the best type of controler or whatever to use? heard that if you try and use a console controller during pc play you will get owned alot lol
Mouse for movement + "aim down sights" (and other things depending on your extra buttons), keyboard for mostly everythign else. It will take time getting used to it, but being a grid pattern it's not like playing an N64 for years than switching to xbox. You just have to get the "spacing" right, since they all feel the same obviously. I use my mouse for reload, melee, and switching weapons too, but it's a mid-range G5 mouse. I couldn't convince myself I needed an $85 mouse
You *will* get owned for a while while you get used to pc controls, more than a few hours. Best thing to do is get COD5 WaW and mess around with semi-auto rifles on tactical-mod servers. If you can get used to hitting ppl in one shot quickly, you can master a quick spray with mg's. There aren't as many snipers now on PC, it's actually very even on average - at least on hardcore servers (that's all I play). BF has always been about teamplay though, not 1-man-tactical-army like COD games tend to be.
