Speedrunning on a pad?
9 years ago
Poland

Hey guys.

I was thinking about picking up GTA speedruns lately.

Unfortunately, my problem is that I'm very sensitive to mouse settings in games (sensitivity, acceleration etc.) and GTA is notorious for multiple problems in that area so I'm unable to play this game with a mouse and keyboard.

Now, I was thinking, would it be possible to speedrun GTA games on a pad?

  • is it even possible and allowed to use a pad?
  • would it make a noticable difference time-wise? as in, would the speedrun be significantly longer?
  • are there any missions or tricks that would be impossible with a pad?

Thanks in advance.

playing with a controller is of course possible and allowed, but proper aiming is almost impossible with it

I think the best solution is to use Y-axis sensitivity fix ( http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto:_Vice_City#Y-axis_sensitivity_fix ), you'll need to lower the sensibility in the menu at the start of every run but it's only a few seconds and shouldn't matter until you get insanely good
