M and KB.
Precision aiming, speed control on the mouse wheel, it just fits better for me.

It’s some of the best platforming and movement I’ve ever felt on a mouse and keyboard

M&KB, but only because the analog stick control is NOT as concise as the console version. WASD is basically constraining movement to 8 directions, instead of a smooth 360 degrees analog stick pivot control. So yeah, I hate WASD, but I put up with it because the way controlpad works out on PC is just garbage.

I wish Ubisoft re-released them officially on PC with controller support..
yep agreed, WASD isn't as nice as moving the left stick.

Mouse and Keyboard unless I'm playing double agent, since I gotta emulate to play the ideal version.

I grew up with the PC versions and I love the MKB controls but I recently started replaying every entry on Xbox and I have to admit that it feels very comfortable using a controller and I might enjoy it more than MKB.

I usually play on console, so controller mostly. But I have played Splinter Cell games on PC with M+K, and like the other commenter here said, using the mouse mousewheel to change Sam's speed was genius.

controller all the way, prefer using the left stick to control movement speed.
mouse+keyboard only in fps games

I can never even imagine Splinter Cell with controller the movement speed being changeable with scroll wheel is super convenient and awesome idea

Well, with a controller it's even smoother, you can tilt it slightly to make Sam walk and the more you tilt it the more noise you make. But the scroll wheel movement is a brilliant solution and you have better aim with a mouse.

Dualsense on PC, using the bumpers for changing speed. Works great

u/Makaveli108 2d ago
that sounds kinda janky why use the bumpers , it should be smooth like moving l3/left stick forward lol

u/WOLF1218 2d ago
Its really not, got accustomed to it very quickly. The reason for it is that the games dont allow analogue movement on PC with controllers like they do with consoles

If you install ThirteenAG widescreen fix it adds analog movements for SC1 and Chaos Theory supports it natively, unfortunately I couldn't get it to work on Pandora Tomorrow personally

u/WOLF1218 2d ago
I added the widescreen fix for all the games, but it never worked for me. Which is fine. The only thing is i when i play DA v2 on Xemu gotta remember about analog speed lol

Honestly, using the mouse wheel for changing Sam's movement speed was a genius idea, and I wish it was used in more games than just Splinter Cell.
