Star citizen ps4 controller setup.
I tried plugging in my dualshock 4 ps4 controller and launching the game and it doesn t seem to work and when i downloaded ds4 and try to start the game it wouldn t let me use the mouse but the controller still didn t work.
But the ps4 controller is a gamepad.
As for getting the controller to work the game should detect it as a game pad and you should be able to configure it through the menu.
The fps and flight controls may feel familiar to gamers who use controllers but the sheer number of controls may make this unweildy for anything other than walking around or basic flight.
That said i wouldn t use one.
