xbox controllers and smite.

so i wanna play smite with my 360 controller. i plugged it in, the drivers are installed and now the green xbox button is flashing. what else do i need to do in order for it to work?

I play on a xbox 360 remote as well. I don't know what type of controller you have but you should not have needed to set up anything if its wired at least I didn't have to.

I just plugged in my wired controller into the USB slot and it automatically works with nothing required other than going to settings and customizing your controller layout. It should already work. When you log into smite find the TOOL icon in the top left or right corner and you have to adjust your controller settings to set your controller up.

I recommenced you set your xbox controller how I have it being Its the most efficient way.

KEYBOARD CONTROLS:

G - Active #2 aka less important one.


Theory - Take all your important used stuff and put it on the controller in the most efficient way. Things that cannt fit on the controller go on the keyboard.



There are a few things the controller accells at over using a keyboard.
I can level up my skills while using consumables while using actives while using skills all at the same time without moving my hand at all. You simply just push in your fingers.

What the mouse has over the controller is that you adjust sensitivity with your mouse which can be fined tuned for certain speeds unlike a controller if you get what I am saying.

But for me I would rather play on a controller because I don't have to stay hunched over my laptop an I can lay around and relax while playing smite.
