Hi. I have a Steel Series 3GC Controller, that has a USB hook up. I bought it for the PC, and I used it to play on Project 64. Does anyone know if I can use Steel Series Controller to play Star Wars Old Republic? If so, then how do I hook it up? And If not, then what controller should I get?

Also, I haven't purchase the game yet, and was wondering... how many players do you get in co-op?

I read you get 4, but I was hoping more. Even if it's only 4 I will still get the game. Oh, and one more question... Is this game anything like Lord Of the Rings Conquest, on PS3? (To those of you who have played LOTRC.)



Oh and, can you play this game co-op on PC?:D


Thank you!!!!!!!

Well, I would assume a controller wouldn't work underwater.

I can't think of too many PC MMORPGs that have controller support. There are normally way too many hotkeys for that to ever work - you'd end up being much more useless in combat, even if you could get it to work.

As for co-op...it's an MMO. An online-only game, with hundreds of other players around. Maybe the instanced missions only allow four players at a time though - I wouldn't know, haven't bothered to play it.

My advice to you: sign up for the free version of the game (on the official website), gain the first 15 levels, then see whether or not you'd want to purchase it. It sounds like you're completely new to the genre, and the genre...isn't really like anything on consoles. You might hate this style of gameplay.
