I'll be honest but that was one of the reasons why I stopped playing RA2 is because it looks and to a certain extent plays outdated. I would love to see RA2 on 60fps and at a better resolution. (Like the way FFVII got upscaled to look better) Also is it just me or does driving the robots don't feel as great these days.

Side Note and just a suggestion: Can you guys try and see if RA2 could work with an analog stick like a PlayStation or Xbox style? I've managed to play RA2 with a PS3 controller but I have not figured out how to make it work with analog controls.

RA2 works with analog sticks just fine, at least with xbox controllers.

While that's true, RA2 doesn't have the facilities to use analog controls. The speed of the motor is either full speed, or no speed; on or off. Like driving a real robot with a bang bang drive setup  ;)

Really? The dialogs in game say keyboard forces them to be full positive or negative but can range on an analog stick.

I play RA2 with my rc sim controller which works perfectly. You can actually control the speed of the motor, so it's not just off or full speed. Even all the buttons and switches for weapons work properly.

Huh, doesn't work on my Xbone controller. Possibly just me not having something set up right. I stand corrected :)

All of the 'robot designs' exports of the reps are wired up to use the xbox controller, I connect the controller up wirelessly using this. It comes with a installation disc, very bloody handy overall!

I haven't tried it with a PS2/3/4 controller yet though but the game definetly works with the PS2 style USB gaming controllers, been using them since I started playing the game when it released. Only been using the xbox controller with it for the past year now.

Someone ought to make a forum about using various controllers on RA2 and seeing witch ones work best.

A whole forum dedicated to that? Seems a bit extreme.

To be fair mate, until either my computer is fixed, Jarvis gets everything installed on his computer, Mike isn't working or you've stopped.... Watching Doctor Who?  :rage  There isn't anything really to be talk about other than the things that are the commended to make the mod better, more controllable and accessible for the player.

Cheese.

Do you know if the game will run ok (without too much lag) on a low spec PC(one that has just a standard processor and graphics card)
Sometimes this game is on crack.

If your PC runs RA2, it should run this just fine :)
