Guild Wars 2

And the console version of the game? its still in production or it has been dropped?

No idea about the joystick, but they’ve said there is currently no console port planned or being worked on.

what about these “old news”

are they fake?

I don’t know, I just know somebody asked a few weeks ago and a dev said that a console port was not currently in development. Let me see if I can find the post.

Aha! Couldn’t find the post but I found the interview that the post reffered to, it was in early december with Colin Johansen, so pretty recent.

It states that they had a team working on it at one point, but since launch the entire team has been dedicated to improving on the existing game. But it does also state that it isn’t entirely out of the question. Hope for the future.

Also, I believe there’s some way you can play GW2 on your PC with an XBox 360 controller, so maybe you could look into that.

thanks, i was already thinking that in this moment the production of a console version would be frozen.

but the question about a joystick support update continues.

The game doesn’t need a “joystick” update. Go download pinnacle gaming profile or xpadder. Pinnacle gives a free 2-4 week trial and both cost about 15 bucks. Relatively cheap considering how useful they are. Experiment and set everything up how you like it rather then count on Arena Net to give you an update that probably won’t live up to your expectations. And download the Combat Mode Mod as well and the game is amazing with a 360 controller.
