Mouse buttons 4 and 5

[Prometheus]

Also known as the side buttons that are common to any gaming mouse ever made. Are not recognized by the game for remapping. What insanity lead the dev team to missing this? Its such an EXTREMELY OBVIOUS THING THAT EVERY GAMER WOULD WANT TO DO. Especially since the default dodge button is C (ha! like that is ever going to work).

I know I can use workarounds but FFS I shouldn't need to for a full freaking price game.

what are you doing playing this on mouse and keyboard?

if your melee then i would have to agree that controller is best. But when using 1 of the ranged weapons I swap to mouse and keyboard since I'm not a console shooter player and there is way more precision using the mouse. I would love for the side mice buttons to be enabled for that.

Because I am playing this on PC. I could pay $100 for a crappy console physical interface but why would I want to?

it feels great playing on m&k, unlike MH.

Am I just crazy or does this game not detect numpad keys either? My numpad keys are bound to my mouse so yeah numpad buttons are not detected. and before someone else says is yes I checked numlock

am I the only one who seems to be able to hit C to dodge with no issues i leave my WAD figures on my keys at all times and to hit C i drop my figure into it with the middle of my pointer finger with 0 issues. Real question because the people i play with complained about it too and its very natural for me i dont even have to thing about it

I think in both instances it’s habit dictating preference. Personally I know for any action in a game that requires either last minute input or a quick reaction be it dodge or party I am faster on the thumb may it be with the spacebar or a mouse side button. Moving my pointer finger to C takes “thinking time”. This is most likely due to years of being used to that. If you are used to using your pointer finger in these events I like to assume this “thinking time” gets negated. At least that’s my theory

Edit: To add to this also for me moving pointer finger, middle or ring finger means not having a finger on WAD at all times. If I wanted to move immediately right after dodging it takes that much longer. Also if you wanted to do directional dodging but use your pointer finger to dodge how do you dodge right? I mean I know that there’s definitely likely a way to do it but for me it’s just that much inconvenient

Edit2: ignore the last couple sentences. My 3am brain didn’t read properly

I set the side button of the mouse to F. The problem is solved.

If you need the side button of the mouse, you need the function of the game. Then use the macro to set the mouse side button to the corresponding function key.

I think that’s what i am gonna do in the morning probably change the game profile and rebind side buttons to function keys

With the cheap tool Rewasd, you can remap all your device's buttons to anything, and much more. It's all the time worth the 7 bucks for basic version.

It actually faster on mouse and keyboard, not to mention you dont need to target lock which is great. Everyone says this game is better with controller, I think the opposite.

I play every game with keyboard and mouse. I mean if a game is on pc you should be able to play it with kb+m and if you think that is weird why are you even on pc then?

If one is userd to play KBM, like me, it's the best way. Some times ago, I tried to play with controller on pc, and returned it after one week, because I saw no advantage.
For controller users, its the opposite.
I use keypads (Azeron now) since many years, which is perfect for me, as I also cannot get used to WASD with a keybord itself.
It's all a matter of practise and getting used to.
