Well, the PC version even showed the Xbox One controller when you switched from Mouse+Keyboard to controller as input option. It was the recommended controller lol. 

I find a lot around Lawbreakers just weird. Cliffy also tells a lot of stupid stuff all the time. I believe this is all just part of their marketing to let people know about the game more because like we see now, many talk about the game when they talk shit. 

Same with "we are only 70 people, that's why it doesn't come to XBO yet". Sure, because 70 people for an indie game is such a damn small number. 

I think he just wants all the rage from his followers (many of them obiously Xbox owners because of Gears) just to be the nice guy when he will say "ok ok, we decided to port it also to XBO" in some months. Magazines and the likes just report more and more about the game as more shit he talks. 

Are you sure there's enough keys on a keyboard to play the game?

Nope.  You have to plug in a second keyboard to have enough.  You know, the old "dual keyboard" control method so many games have used in the past.

Cause it seemed like you havent seen a switch. 

actually, it seems you don't get it. Lets leave it at that, I don't want to explain the scenario a second time.

You're about the only person in this thread that doesn't get the Switch has the same amount of input buttons as PS4/XB...

Haha, looks like they admitted they were wrong. What's the next reason then?

no Square, Triangle or Circle button! The lack of a Playstation button too will make it impossible for the switch to return to the main menu from their game... it just wont work!

The confirm button's on the right instead of the bottom, that'll be their next excuse!
