put keyboard and mouse support in Skate.

 It would've been a great option if you could've had keyboard and mouse support in Skate. Most of the people on PC don't play with the controller because they have a keyboard and mouse. Just add an option to play with keyboard and mouse in Skate.

    I don't know what happened but my controller disconnected like 45 minutes ago. I tried to fix it but then I noticed that  inputs on my keyboard and mouse turned on like in-game, not only on the menu.

    So, I've been messing around with the controls just freeskating; it's not half bad. There are missing inputs though for example I can't do hippy jumps because I've no idea what combination of keys move the feet (I'm running a tenkeyless and some logitech mouse with two buttons on the left side + dps-button behind the scroll wheel).  The fact that I am playing with KBM is probably not inteded because when I enter skatepedia, the tutorials show prompts for Xbox. It would be such a shame if they didn't add this fully, because it works surprisingly well.

    Controls are surprisingly intuitive and feel sharp. Keep in mind I am playing on CLASSIC button-layout.

    You have your classic WASD (=left stick) and mouse + mb1/mb2 (right stick, hold down mb to charge your trick and flick with your mouse to execute. Work actually pretty well. I'm getting the tricks I am trying to do. Though the sensitivity is a hinderence since the deadzone translates to your mouse input).

    Space (=jump, seems to only work off-board), shift (could be a key for left foot?) left control (=left-hand grab + off-board roll), alt (=right hand grab, off-board roll), Z (=break, on-board only), middle mouse button (=session marker), R (=get on/off board), X (=spontatiously ragdoll), 1 (=emote wheel), ARROW KEYS (=quick-emote) and ESC (=pause)

     

    The fact that this felt playable with KBM makes me think that someone at some point worked on this. They might still be working on it.. who knows

  • super disappointed there is no keyboard and mouse option, you’re losing out on a huge player base if there wont be an option in the future. especially since this is a pc game.

  • i just tried this and holy it feels so smooth there is so much wasted potential here if they dont fully support it

    I hate when companies do things like this that straight up **bleep**s themselves in the **bleep**.
