From Keyboard To Controller: This Is Whack!

Well Hello There Fellow Gamers And Hivers!


I Did Something!

So one of my friends sent me an Xbox controller that he doesn't have need for anymore... now he knows that I only play Forza with a keyboard and that wasn't really working out too well at the start but the more I played the more I grew accustomed to the keyboard... As if the racing and controlling got easier as the time went on..

It did though... but now that I've gotten a controller things are way out of line for me! It really is something to get use to!

Always And Forever!

Now here is the thing! The real mackoy! I've always just played with a keyboard... I don't mean just Forza I mean gaming as a whole! I've never been a console player so I've never had any practice with console remotes...Even though I've always wanted a console for those lazy rainy days chilling in bed being able to jam up a game while not even getting up!

Yeah that sounds whack right! Well now I've got the opportunity to do something like that but only with Forza I geuss! I can hook up the laptop to the television and have a blast of a time!

Please do be aware that you might see some whack plays since the new controller!

Yeahp! I Told You!

Heck this feels weird but also quite comfortable, I think the problem is that the muscle memory is there for the keyboard and not the controller!

Yes I know I have some practice infront of me and it might be some time before I drive like I drive now (Not like I drive like a pro anyways xD) But it is almost like having to relearn how to walk! It can be hectic but an amazing experience as well!

As you can see I am slamming into almost everything!
I didn't come close to winning this race so therefor I decided to re-run it and I have to admit that the re-run went a lot better than I thought it would xD!

Nicking It Off!

Okay so I chose the slowest damned Mercedes that I could get out of the garage! (Keep in mind that this was not at all planned! I thought it was my wild beast of a one!

On the other hand it might have been the best choice with the new controller... Slow and steady gets you there right? I think xD! I'm not entirely sure how I'll be able to handle the controller with the real beasts of cars! It might be a troublesome thing!

I suppose we will leave that for when the time comes?

Yeahp That's Me!

Oh hell yeah! Doing a re-run was well worth it I tell you!

I managed to pass the 1st place just after the halfway marker and from there onwards I managed to retain my place!
Okay given I am racing against AI and if these were real players no doubt they would have handed me my own ass on a silver platter with spicing on it and a grin on their faces! Laughs!

Before I tread on the player base I think I might need some more practice! A lot more if you ask me! However slow and steady and practicing on a daily might get me there faster than I think!

I bought a controller long back and when I tried it for GTA V, I was like "How do people use these to play games?" As the store owner was like a bro, I returned it as fast as I could and I decided not to try controller in my whole life ahead.

But its good to know that you're used to a controller and enjoying it more than a keyboard.

Well honestly! I'm not yet used to it but for Forza it does have better plays though.... Like Demotry said on discord, now I've got throttle control and it really helps a lot for the rear wheel drive cars!
