Playing FPS with a controller when you can use keyboard and mouse

I don't feel like learning how to play all over again with kb/m

It's like fighting games, some people play with stick some play with pad, it's about preference. And I still play on console so it would throw me off some going from kb/m to controller for FPS games.

I thought it would throw me off as well..but nah fam... The mouse enables u to turn WAY faster than the controller on FPS'..

I know the kb/m will be more precise, I just don't feel like learning how to play FPS using it.

what is there to learn?
i'm assuming you use a kb/m every day.

it's a mental block.

The control scheme.

I've played shooters for over 10-15 years playing with a controller. I'm used to having triggers, analog sticks etc for aiming and shooting. I'm comfortable with it. It's all about preference honestly.

Brehs, I'm thinking of going PC gamer and skipping the next gen console thing. I already have a decent desktop that I use for music production, I probably just need to add a video card, cooling, and maybe a bigger power supply.

What kind of specs would I need to have a gaming experience at or above the next gen consoles?

Ur right fam..I'm naturally a console gamer..for any 3rd person game or anything else I still use a controller..but when u feel how fast the turning is on mouse vs a controller in FPS' it's a big difference...it's makes turning feel slow as fukk on a controller..maybe I would have to heighten the sensitivity of the analogs..never thought about that so imma try that out...and I like the rumble feature on a controller as well...so we'll see..I just think it's kinda easier to play an FPS on a mouse and keyboard..

Yeah, I bump up my sensitivity on all my FPS games as well when playing with a pad.

I play it a little bit. I just started this season so I'm still pretty new to the game.

I'm sure that's true for a lot of people that learn to use a mouse and kb

anyway...
