So, is mouse functionality finally goung to be added?
Hi guys and gals, as the title says, does anyone know if mouse functionality will finally be coded in? If not I will pass on this *le yet again.

That's disappointing.....yet again, if it is not implemented. Don't really see the point in implementing keyboard support if not mouse as well. Yes mouse for navigating menus is what I meant.

Well, some people actually use keyboard controls to race so only having keyboard support is useful for them.

Yeah but usually where there is a keyboard there is a mouse as well. It can't be that difficult to code it in, everyone else manages to for pc released games

I was explaining why it wasn't pointless having only keyboard support, much as I find the idea of driving using a keyboard bizarre! I can see why adding mouse support is very different though since keyboard support just involves defining button mapping whereas adding the sort of mouse support you'd like would require functionality adding to the game: there is no cursor in the game at present or on-screen buttons to mouse-over and click on.
I navigate the game perfectly fine using the buttons on my wheel so whilst I understand PC players wanting mouse support it really isn't necessary.

Easy fix then, they just need to add a cursor. I guess I am in the minority so will just ignore this title yet again and get my F1 fix from my sims that all offer mouse navigation. Such is life, can't have everything you want.
