Keyboard support?

One of the update logs mentioned that the keyboard is no longer featured. Is this true in every area of the game? Can this be overcome? How exactly will the mouse system work if so? Also, will Coldstone games support peripherals such as joysticks and gamepads?

Here's a snip from the latest update to the progress log:

_
(NEW) Event: "User Control" action type added. Let you enable/disable mouse and keyboard support to control the player on a map
_

You can decide to support either the keyboard, the mouse or both. Think about Diablo for the mouse system. Coldstone will not directly support joysticks or gamepads. However, you can usually set some key equivalents to your gamepad buttons so you will probably be able to use it.

What about a gamepad support through input sprocket? most of the new peripheral only support input sprocket (my gravis gamepad pro for example).I know that with OSX coming, it's may cause some problem, but enabling the people to play directly with their gamepad would be a top notch feature.
