No controller support?

The xinput controls for Anomaly were very good. I bought this game expecting something similar- but my controller isn't recognised. In the settings, there's an option to 'select controller type' but the only option is Mouse...

It would be very handy with a controller support, since many people were playing with the controller in the first Anomaly.
It is possible to enable the controller. Must we wait for it?

I've preordered, waited eagerly, but didn't play a second yet. Why is there no Controller support, you had it in earlier builds! I loved to play the original with my 360 pad!
I'm doing countless clicks at work already, mainly working with the mouse all day. I want to use the gamepad at home as much as possible! I've even switched to playing fps with my gamepad lately...
I need native gamepad support, my finger is tired, no joking.
Please advise if this is coming in the future or not. Thanks

Hi!
Controller support is coming in one of future updates. We are still working on multiplayer controls, thats why its not there yet :)

OK, well I'm glad it's going to be added, I just want to be able to play the singleplayer with the same device I used for the original :(

Thanks for the answer, looking forward to it.
However if you could already enable it "as is" for Singleplayer only that would be awesome.
Maybe there is an option via config file or something already?

Since there is no controller support right out of the box, I went ahead and made this:

Enjoy!

Thanks for the effort but I'll rather wait for native support.

@11bit: I understand this will not be released today or tomorrow but may I ask for a rough estimate on when it's coming?
Also: Any chance you might release the controller option for the campaign only? I want to play but will wait for this, just want to see if I should check back daily or in several months...

As far as I'm concerned, we won't make it in incoming 2 weeks sadly. That's all i can say for sure. As for campaign, I'll try to talk with somebody to enable it, but as I said unfortunately You'll have to wait a little more.

Hello,
how is the timeline coming?
I don't even remember why i bought this game, still didn't play a second...oh, wait, i do remember that the first anomaly was great. Guess that tempted me and now I'll have to wait patiently till this installment is finished.
