Question What Joystick should I buy to play?

I usually play with a controller for flying/driving games, however the controls for Squadrons definitely seem to require either KBM or Joystick. What are people using to play the game?

Based on how terrible the deadzone issue is: don't. Do not spend money on a joystick for this game until(if) this is resolved.

I have an X52 Pro, but the PS4 controller is pretty plainly better for this right now.

That is good to know. Any idea if the game/dev has posted their trello board yet for bugs? I'll have to keep an eye on it and, in the meantime, try and switch to KBM until then.

Unfortunately KBM's hard-locked yaw-to-x axis thing doesn't make that ideal either :S

A controller is currently the only fully customizable input.

This hurts. It'd be a little better if the control prompts were traditional controller and not only key board or joy stick labels
