Rumble for Xbox One Controller and other gamepads - PC

Hello everyone!

While i know this has been mentioned before i would like to mention it again hoping that someone at Frontier will pick it up [smile]

Can we please get rumblesupport for Xbox One controllers on the PC ? Hopefully it wont be the biggest job since it already exists in the Xbox One version of the game?

As i mentioned in a support ticket i dont think its a gamebreaker to not have it but i think it would add some immersion and it would be a really nice addition to the game.

Hopefully others will support me in this request !

Best Regards CMDR Sm4rtens

Force feedback is not new, but still fantastic for immersion, IMO. At a pure guess, I suspect most players probably aren't playing with devices that support the feature, or FD would have incorporated it already. I really wish I could find a new, quality HOTAS that had it, I'd be all over that, but I only see it in older, second-hand models - and even then, it doesn't seem too common.

I do use a Win360 pad for the SRV and it would certainly improve the whole driving experience. +1, if it's not too resource-hungry a job.

I think I remember hearing it was pretty low on the priority list. Either way, I wouldn't mind seeing this bumped up a bit.

Another joystick that could adept for it is Nvidia shield joystick for the Tablet. Which can also be use with the PC if plug into USB hub. It also have the Rumble action on it.

Not sure how popular bumping is here, but here we go :)

Just want to make sure Frontier sees this and hopefully other gamepad users can join the thread to make it even more visible!

Hey Guys!

I've been playing Elite since may 2015 and I -REALLY- miss full gamepad support for either the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One controller. Drinving the SRV without it just feels... wrong. I really apprechiate Frontiers effort to port and polish console versions of this amazing game - but c'mon, no rumble support in 2016? Thats ridiculous!

I'd really like controller rumble as well. I think wwise - the sound system used in Elite - only supported rumble on console controllers for a while, but it does support it in Windows and Mac too now (and maybe all along). In any case, it would add a lot to the game for those of us using gamepads, and since it's implemented already for xbox, I think it would be worth the effort to bring it over.

I am an Xbox One player. I wouldn't put this too high on your priority lists as the haptic feedback implementation through the controller is horrible. I turned it off!

Sorry to hijack this thread a bit guys, but just a quick question: has FD now integrated Xbox One controller support into the PC version? I'm on the verge of buying a copy for that (as well as my Xbox One copy!) but would prefer to keep using my controller, purely out of convenience.

You should be able to map any usb control device that Windows can see regardless of who makes it. I'm currently like others building my own HID device and ED recognised it straight away just needed controls mapping to the buttons i wanted and then go play.

with the implementation of more mainstream VR my guess is Force-feedback and Rumble will make a return to popularity, as more realism is desired by gamers.

Until there is no Xbox Controller support in the PC Version I will continue playing ED on my Xbox.
Never mind if there are no more updates, but it is more fun with the old features than that unfinished and incomplete Odyssey.
