For controller users
Anyone else having a tough time adapting to the newer controls? Perhaps I'm just an idiot (which wouldn't really surpise me) But moving Detective vision to up rather than L1 is throwing me off. Also, the control scheme for the batmobile...I'm not loving it. Perhaps its my last GTA playthrough speaking, but I feel L2 to brake/reverse opposed to X would make so much more sense...is it just me?

You can set the battle mode of the batmobile to toggle in the options menu. This makes the left trigger brake/reverse and the right bumper battle mode. Power slide is still X button though. Hope this helps :)
Strange that they would change the controls for one type of controller and not the other. You should put playstation in the title.

I don't like the moved button layout either, but I'm starting to get used to it now. Only about 7 hours in, but still. I do find myself using battlemode as a brake instead of X as well, just because its easier.
I haven't looked but isn't the gamepad settings where you can change control settings. That would be my guess about what you find in there so I could be wrong.

The option to change Battle Mode to toggle is in Game Options and that option only shows up after taking Poison Ivy to GCPD station.

As mentioned, change battle mode to toggle and the settings will change to the more traditional R2/L2 for gas and brake.

Definitely took me a little while to get used to, but once I did it felt smoother all round imo. Just F around with it for a good 30-60 mins and you'll be fine I"m sure.
I understand that with them adding stuff, they almost had to change it, but I'm still not a fan of the new control scheme. I personally feel that they broke them.

I use a cronusmax. It lets me remap the buttons and run scripts on the controller.

I made a script in which I have up swapped with L1 (LB on 360) and when I press up on the dpad it swaps L2 (LT on 360) with Sqaure( X on 360). When I press UP on the dpad a second time (or A to eject) to get out of the batmobile, it swaps the L1 and Square back again.

Makes the game much easier to play.

I ment that the settings for gatget selection, detectiv mode, ect. are diffrent. but the strike, counter, run/glide, ect are not changed.

I wouldn't know because I use XIM4 when playing the game on PS4 to map everything to keyboard and mouse. I try to key the mapping as closae to the PC version as possible.

I ended up never using the brake in the Batmobile because of it being X, who needs that anyway :D:

I've called in the batmobile countless times instead of detective vision in the first playthrough, but i've gotten used to it by now. The RB (R1) button toggle for tank mode is must-have in my opinion...
