    Not on consoles. If you want keyboard and mouse, go get a PC.

    Why would Bill Gates care about what happens on the Xbox console, he doesn't work at Microsoft anymore.

    Until Microsoft do implement mouse and keyboard onto the Xbox One, you could just use one of these.

  7. I believe that Microsoft, and the other console manufacturers, should support keyboard & mouse natively.

    Currently people are using keyboard & mouse adaptors which make the playing field far more unlevel than native support would do. How? Let me explain.

    When you are using a controller games give you a generous amount of aim assist. When using the adaptor you are gaining all the benefits of playing with a keyboard & mouse, as well as that generous amount of aim assist. This gives players a huge advantage over
    others.

    This has gained such attention that players on PC are now using the adaptors to make their systems think a keyboard & mouse is a controller, because again they get all the benefits of keyboard & mouse as well as the aim assist for controllers.

    So native support for keyboard & mouse would eliminate the advantage people currently have when using an adaptor.

  8. Keyboard and mouse.. WHEN!???

    Been in the works for ages, but some feel that by allowing mouse and keyboard support on consoles may be seen as a patent infringement.

    So when the legal eagles finish wondering what makes a console a console vs what makes a PC a PC. (patents) You could start seeing mouse, keyboard and my personal fav. Flight Stick support by say... Never... Unless the powers that be overrule the hatchet

    Console gaming is meant to be more simpler than PC gaming. No system requirements to worry about. No viruses to worry about. Keyboard and mouse commands from PC gaming, is more complicated than using a controller which has only a few buttons. A controller
    is simpler, instead of pressing A, N,Z,B,5,3,Tab, Enter, Alt, F1, etc etc.

    Honestly if you want a keyboard and mouse, get a PC! We don't want this PC rubbish on console.

    Gates is also the founder of Microsoft. He'd be about the same age as some of the people on this forum LOL. He is a rich and good person and donates to charity. Microsoft has a very nice CEO who inspires me. Also Spencer is head of Xbox.

  10. While a keyboard certainly does have more buttons you actually don't use them all while gaming. Indeed you use about the same amount of buttons to play a game with a keyboard and mouse as you do with a controller.

    Well as this thread proves, people do want keyboard and mouse on console. Just look at the popularity of the adaptors for further proof. Plus as I said before allowing native support would actually level the playing field far more than Microsoft allowing
    keyboard and mouse adaptors to be used on the system.

    A Windows PC easily supports the Xbox controller as well as keyboard and mouse. There really is no reason to disallow the option on the Xbox One, especially since it too is Windows based.

    Mouse and Keyboard high input delay

    All console when using keyboard and mouse have delays, the best way to minimise it is to use a wired keyboard and mouse instead of a wireless one

    Unable to get keyboard and Mosue to work in game mode playing Fortnite

    For the following to work you must make the menu selections using your keyboard. If you use the controller to make your menu selections to start the game you will be placed in a room for those with a controller and your keyboard/mouse will be non functional
    to make it fair to other players. To enter the room for keyboard and mouse users the game must be started by selecting the options using the keyboard/mouse. Hope this helps.

    Mouse and keyboard support

    Fortnite on Xbox One supports the ability to play with a mouse and keyboard. Note that when using a mouse and keyboard on Xbox One, you’ll be placed in a game with other users who also chose mouse and keyboard as their control option. To enable your setup
    to use mouse and keyboard, see Mouse and Keyboard Support

    Note If you’re on a child account, you’ll also need to enable settings for cross-network play to use a keyboard and mouse while playing
    on Xbox One.

    for the keyboard on xbox

    Keyboard/mouse players will not be matched with controller players & vice versa unless they choose too when keyboard/mouse support is released.

    No one is being favoured or given any type of advantage.

    Chances are the majority of console players won't even use keyboard/mouse to play games when it becomes available anyway.

    Streaming Xbox to Windows 10 PC and using a keyboard/mouse

    Yes but what if I want to use the mouse and keyboard while streaming, I dont want to have to unplug my desktops mouse and keyboard and connect it to my xbox when I have the ability to play from here. Can I play mouse and keyboard supported games through
    streaming?

    Where is the keyboard and mouse support promised to us!!!

    I believe it will support mouse/keyboard when mouse/keyboard support is released for the xbox one.

    I highly doubt this will be ready in time for PUBG coming to game preview this month.
