X8X8X 0 Posted May 30, 2016 Hi, I know this game was designed for joysticks way back then. But is it possible to fly without? I tried FreeFalcon but couldn't figure out anything in terms of controls. Thanks. Best regards, X8X8X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warthogboy09 3 Posted May 30, 2016 in short yes and no. yes it is technically playable without a joystick but no it will not be near as enjoyable. even an xbox 360 controller is better than keyboard and mouse in my opinion but for $40 at the nearest microcenter you can pick up a decent HOTAS that will make flying fun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mizuez 0 Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) I have tried playing falcon BMS 4.33 with keyboard and mouse only because I didn't have my flight set up, but wanted to get the sim running. It is possible and I managed to fly a campaign mission from the ramp and successfully bomb a target and return to base. Yes it's possible but annoying and you have no precision of flight controls. It's all or nothing. You can easily get a simple joystick that's not a HOTAS and fly just fine and still be effective in combat. You just need to learn keystrokes or where the buttons are in the pit.
