Oh My God

I'm giving this game for the worst mouse support of any PC game I've played that actually has mouse support.

You might as well play with a joystick plugged instead, in fact it plays exactly the same.

Its terrible.....

Explain why is it the worst?

I heard they did that on purpose. The devs thought the m/kb combo was too accurate and would detract from the horror.

Does anyone have the problem where the dude is always looking up? or is it just me? I have to keep scrolling down just for the guy to look straight!! and yeah the mouse is so jerky

Still got the camera problem where I can't see straight and need to keep dragging the mouse down for it so Issac can even see where he's walking to! ...what the hell...

Good news is that the mouse problem can be fixed if you turn V-sync off. Must be a port thing...

It's interesting that this is causing you problems as I have no issues at all with the control. It isn't jerky and I don't have to keep scrolling down (and vsync is on). I'm using a g5 and I have the logitech software installed.

What kind of mouse are you using and do you have any 3rd party software installed?

Yeah, I've got no problems here at all. The menus are a little laggy, but I suspect that's why the keyboard works for them too.

Hi Juan,
I'm using a G9 laser mouse with no 3rd party stuff. Hmm... I dunno it's really weird cos he keeps looking at the ceiling for some reason... It's like a the camera's centre is above his head or something..
