One of the greatest things about Minecraft is its diversity with user content. There is an add-on that goes by the name of Joypad Mod that gives a whole new way to play the game. The Joypad Mod for Minecraft allows you to use a controller, as if you were playing on a console, for the PC so that you can feel just as comfortable as couch gameplay.
You can now hook up your Xbox controller, or even your Sony or other favorite controller, to your PC and give you the gameplay you are used to and giving you a whole new Minecraft experience. The Joypad Mod 1.11.2 also allows you to connect a second controller so that you can play split-screen with a friend or family member. This really brings a whole new perspective to the Minecraft playing field and allows for an already expansive game to be even more engaging.
Split Screen Play
With the mod, you can even configure the controls right on the screen so you give yourself a personal experience each time you play. All of these customization options and more are more than enough reason to enjoy the Minecraft experience with another person, and with split-screen capability that would not be possible otherwise. Not everyone is able to play PC games with a keyboard and mouse, and now with add-ons like the Joypad Mod 1.11.2/1.7.10 you do not have to.
Minecraft Monitor Parties
Another great use of Joypad Mod is that you can also play with another person on a separate monitor. Dual monitors have always been a big thing with gamers; this mod makes it even more relevant than ever! You can even have multiple instances of the game running and can connect as many players as you need in the home to have your very own Minecraft party. There is almost a nostalgic feeling of LAN parties when you think of what this mod can actually do and how much ingenuity outside the game it can really bring. If you are looking to do more than just play Minecraft but really have an experience all your own, give this mod a try. There is a reason it is as popular as it is and why the developer is constantly making updates. There is no greater utility mod and it really has to be tried out to get the full benefits of it.
