Battlefront 2 Flight Stick
Can anyone in the community tell me if there is flight stick support in Battlefront 2 at release? I've been searching online for feedback from other gamers and can't find much of anything. An officia...

I do remember the original starwaws X-wing game. So fun with a joy stick. Knowing it was designed for current controllers, doubt they would spend the time to realign the keys, but the controls section should allow you something like a mouse flight stick. It should be the same as the latest styles of mice that have wheels and other side buttons.
If you tried to start the original X-wing games without a joystick plugged in, then the game wouldn't even launch which, as far as I'm concerned, is the true hallmark of a GREAT game! I understand EA wants to reach a wider playerbase not all of whom own joysticks, but still, for flying a Star Wars fighter, the experience should be heightened with a joystick, not reduced. Had EA done things right, the flying levels would be still playable but barely adequate with a mouse and keyboard, decent with a game controller, and utterly awesome with a joystick or HOTAS. To quote another post I came across while trying to get my joystick functional with BF2: You remember in all the movies how the Xwing and TIE fighter cockpits had little keyboards and a little flat spot for a mouse for the pilots to control their ships in combat? Let's see some better support for proper hardware here EA!
Bump.
I need support for my joystick for Starfighter Assault. Please, i love this mode, i just want to have X-wing alliance memories
Yes! We need joystick support EA!
Come on EA!!!! Flightstick support now!!!! It would take 1 dev about 8 hrs. (I shift) to do this. Yet you ignore us...……..
It seems that this game only support xinput controllers. I have tested my directinput controller with an input emulater. It works fine. Though, I do know, it is not the solution for cool flight stick users. 😢
Yes proper joystick support and control bindings is a must for those games on PC. Not going SWBF2 until that's done.
- I agree It's about time that there was joystick support on the PC for this game, not having it is spoiling the game mode that I would rather play.
