Will Planetside 2 be playable with a gamepad / xbox 360 controller?

I'm not sure if you guys just get shafted on prices or if you have really high standards for decency (or both).

I got my mouse for I think less than $10 USD and it works quite well for my gaming needs. Granted this was a while ago, haven't accounted for inflation. Basic Optical from Microsoft. *shrug*


On the topic of console controls: Mouse control is always superior to game-pads, simply due to additional precision. However, I can perfectly understand a given person being used to playing the game on a controller and thus feeling like they are better than mouse/keyboard. Personally, the only console FPS I played at any length was Golden Eye and Perfect Dark on N64. It'd take getting used to, but if I could play them with mouse/keyboard I would.

I did mess around with Halo at a friends house once, and I can say I prefer the PC port simply for the controls.
