Re: Whadya think about the controls?

In Response To: Re: Whadya think about the controls? (JonnyOThan)


: Fully customizeable controls is something we've always wanted to do, but it's
: a huge undertaking in terms of engineering, testing, and UI work. Very
: very few players use anything but default, so arguably that effort is
: better spent elsewhere.

I had no idea that it's such an engineering problem to allow fully customizable controls! Those folks back in 1979 doing it on Apple II games must have really been geniuses, no? And to think, they had to deal with a hundred different keys while Bungie only has to deal with a dozen!

Hire them immediately and pay them big bucks!
