Standard Joysticks are not working anymore
Reviewed, NormalPublic

Description

Standard Joysticks an pedals are not supported by Arma Reforger? Are you serious? One of my main action in ARMA3 was flying... Helicopters or Planes. How should this be done in a imersive way without Joysticks and pedals? Is it planned to reactivate Joystick support? I hope so.
Best regards
Stefan Beck

Hello Amipro.
The joystick support is currently WIP. So it should be available in future.

Thx for the fast answer. Is there a schedule/roadmap available,, when such essential parts of the game will be implemented?

Unfortunately there is no public roadmap nor I can share any estimates as to when this could be implemented.

I am extremely happy to hear that joystick support was/is being worked on. I was hoping that it would have come with 1.0 but I understand that game development is a fluid and challenging task. I think a lot of the PC community is waiting on this feature. We could really use the ability to map throttle and collective axis for analog equipment. Controller emulation is just not cutting it. I personally would really like to sink my time into Reforger like I did with Arma 3 but all of my flight time in Arma 3 was done with a duel stick setup or HOTAS, I have no muscle memory with mouse and keyboard. Are there any updates on this that you might be able to share or allude to @Geez? Is it still being worked on? Thanks!
