Joystick Support
I'm considering pre-ordering as I have for past Battlefield games but wanted to know more about any details regarding support for joysticks. I find flying with them is much better but support for the...
Since Battlefield 2042 only supports xbox controllers and dose not support Joysticks or flight controllers . Work around this by using joystick to control mouse .
Set mouse as pilot controls in Keybinds , then use something like JoytoKey https://joytokey.net/en/download
This was easy to set up and now I can use joystick in the game. FINALLY !
note: I did try other programs to use joystick to control mouse, this one was best as it has sensitivity, speed, and threshold control .
As well as other features like macros, key stokes, open programs . I just set it up in the mouse tab if you look at attachment , those are my settings
I know many people are frustrated about this, every Battlefield game since day one has supported flight . joystick controllers . Until now .
Hope this can help some people enjoy the game a bit better, I know it has made a word of difference for me . I would ask the forum staff to make this a sticky .
Totally wonderful solution for an issue that should not exist. In this day and age there is absolutely zero reason to not have native joystick controls in a so-called "AAA title" where aircraft feature heavily. Utterly ridiculous.
