Console Controls Setup (Alpha Review)

As a mainly console player, I decided to try out the control scheme with an Xbox controller, and I found that having to hold down the “B” button to run felt very clunky, especially if you are also trying to jump with the “X” button. I think that having the normal “click in left stick” to run would make it much better when playing with a controller.

Another way to fix this could also be to change the jump button from “X” to “Y”, as this is very often the standard jump button in many other games and it is also in a better position to be able to press both run and jump at the same time without having to teach your thumb gymnastics.

Other than this one issue, the rest of the control scheme that is currently usable feels fine.

Good points, thumbstick is fine for running.

Haven’t tried it with a controller yet but that seems like it would feel weird since most first person games use thumbstick.

Running with “B” would be OK on its own, but it is definitely a hindrance when trying to run and jump at the same time. As I said above, it kind of forces you to contort your hand to get both buttons.

I agree with MrChr15topher

I can say to this thematic, wait until the first combat version is released.
Because you don’t know how to play with your controller in fights.

Is there a diagram anywhere that you could point me to, that shows the entire control scheme for Xbox?

Necro-bump, lads.
