Xbox control icons don't appear in game?

[iacka]

in the old version (non-HD) when you had the official Xbox 360 controller plugged in. In game such as tutorials it would show the button icons on the controller such as use A to jump, and B to reload and so fourth. The game now states the buttons as JOY1, JOY2 etc. Is anyone else's like this? Is there a way to have it display the icons instead of JOY1 ?
thanks

I'm curious on this as well.

Ditto. I don't have any clue what JOY1 is without having to randomly mash things. That's not very user friendly.

Agree, the actual system is an annoying hieroglyphic, bring back the xbox icons.

I am willing to bet they based the pc port off the PS3 version.

Haha.. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. The older complaints were that the game DID list 360 controls. Ah well.. after a little bit you'll get used to the input.

Remember, this game was originally released for the first Xbox (not the 360), and was brought up to be closer to modern standards visually.

Were the complaints were that it shoed 360 icons or that it ONLY showed 360 icons?

I have not played the old version, but it seemed like the controls were random. I pressed all of the buttons on my 360 controller, but I never got the start screen. I had to use task manager to exit.

Yeah, I was pretty shocked to see the Xbox button prompts gone too. It doesn't make a lick of sense to have them removed!

[SuperiorJhorts]

well now they match my logitech ps3 style controller :P

I use a Logitech controller, so the buttons are labeled by numbers, not letters. Suits me just fine. Look up a standard Logitech controller on Google and just look at the buttons, and map yours to match them. They're in all the same spots AS a 360 controller, just labeled differently.

It doesn't worry me too much now that i have gotten the hang of it, just thought it could have been a little bit more polished up, since the older version had it.

I suppose it would be nice to be able to toggle them on/off.
If turned off it could just show them as they are now.

I was about to say have them enabled if it detects a 360 controller but then some people have a different style of controller but are still used to the 360 prompts and their respective locations by now.

So, the toggle option seems like a good idea.

I got this and a load of others in a groupees bundle for $8, basically only bought it for the sake of the low price. Anyway I am a console gamer typically so love my 360 controller.

On the store page for this game it doesnt list controller support but it was nice to see my controller listed in the game config utility!

Anyway point being when it said stuff like "JOY1" or whatever it didnt take me long to figure out what buttons were what and after the tut it's no big deal... though would be nice!!!

I love it when PC games add that feature.. like Borderlands 2 which I was playing until recently.
