It’s rare these days that a PC title doesn’t offer some kind of gamepad support, with many even going as far as automatically changing in-game visuals to make the experience as good as possible – “Press space bar” might be changed to “Press A” button. BioShock 2 is not following the trend.
While it was thought to be a bug or mistake on the part of 2K, a post by a 2K community manager has confirmed PC gamers won’t be getting gamepad support in the recently released game.
“I talked to the dev team about controller support for BioShock 2, and I want to let you know that we won’t be adding this into the game in a patch,” 2K’s Elizabeth Tobey on the official 2K Games forum. “The decision not to support the controller was not made lightly, and to add it now would take a complete re-envisioning of the UI that the team worked so hard to create.”
This naturally caused quite an uproar amongst those who feel the game should offer gamepad support.
