WHY oh WHY oh WHY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your gonna be at a severe disadvantage by using a controller. Have you just come out of the console play pen with an Xbox controller attached like some sucubus type umbilical cord ?(joke)RedDanDoc

I hate how everyone is assuming that use of the Xbox 360 controller would be for the FPS side. If you don't know by now, Battlefield series support the use of vehicles. I don't know about you, but use of the Xbox 360 controller would be stellar for helicopter and fighter control. Two independent joysticks to control flight maneuvers? much much better than the traditional Keyboard + Mouse. So saying it is a severe disadvantage to use a gamepad in this game is only thinking two dimensionally...
