help on origin

[kartoonz]

hi friends i purchased BF2 via origin and is installed after some pain. I am currently using xbox controller however the game doesnt recognise the controller. however the controller is detected by other dvd rom games. I checked the ingame settings but no luck. does origin support external controllers. am i doing anything wrong? i need this desperately since i have also purchased BF3 and medal of honour via origin and are pending download due to this problem... thanks

If I were you, I'd get used to a mouse and keyboard. That controller in a FPS on a pc gaming platform will put you at a huge disadvantage. I wouldn't be surprised if the games simply don't support it.

I think you'll have to use a program to just map your controller input to your keyboard as I don't think BF2 has particularly stellar integrated controller support. Something like Xpadder should do the trick.

Playing first person shooters with a controller is a crime against humanity.

Just let me know your ingame name so I know who to look for when I want to pad my score.
