How do I use my mouse? This game is unplayable with just keyboard.

[Hecatoncheires]

As a rule, PC games support both Keyboard and Mouse as the primary interface device. This game does not seem to support the mouse AT ALL (even for menu selections) which makes things clunky and weird. I bought this game on the PC because I wanted to play it on the PC. Am I missing something or is this just the worst ported game of all time?

lego games always have been on the keyboard only man, never have they been with mouse if I can remember

You move with WASD and use H to attack K to build U to do other stuffs Its not hard without a mouse

[GarageToad]

This is a poorly optimized console port. How can anyone defend a pc game that defaults controls to wasd and "h" as attack? If I could just bind left click for attack this would be fine. @?FLOP? you're a moron.

lol you bought an arcade game and a brilliant one at that and don't own an xbox wired controller , i'm just gonna LOL at you all night, seriously that's like saying zqsd or wasd is bad keys for a driving sim, great game stop being idiots.

I have to admit, not supporting the mouse was a terrible decision for the PC, especially with full 3d areas where using a mouse and keyboard would be optimal. I suppose in some of the areas where the view is fixed having a mouse to move the camera tilt would be troubling, but in general the game really should support a mouse, especially being a pc game.

With that said, you really should use a gamepad with this game. I own a PS3 and was hoping I could just use that controller with the game, unforunately no deal as there is no support for a ps3 controller which is odd since its available for ps3... However, if you setup your ps3 controller with motionjoy and set it to emulate an xbox controller it will detect your ps3 controller, however it reads all the buttons as if you were on an xbox controller which can be confusing when its saying press x and its really square.. so yea, other than that its a pretty great game.

Oh crud... was looking at this, but with no keyboard remapping support, this is a MAJOR FAIL. It's a PC game people... Keyboard/Mouse are the primary controllers... XBOX pads are secondary.

Lego Star Wars 2 had the option to use the mouse, but I hadn't found it to be any better than just keyboard.

[Wrexpert]

Should be self explanatory to play a game like this with an Xbox 360 controller...

If the only controls are on the keyboard how does local coop work?

[Big]

@Flux; Both players use the keyboard, the second player uses the arrow keys and number pad. But.... this is a lousy way to play it... strongly recommend that both players use controllers.

If you're gaming on a PC you owe it to yourself to purchase a gamepad. It's a one-time purchase and will make it unnecessary to perpetuate these types of threads. Limiting yourself to one type of input is akin to self-torture (my experience with Prince of Persia: Sand of Time). Options are *good*.

FPS, strategy, etc. --> Keyboard + Mouse
3D Platformer, driving, any local co-op, etc. --> Dual Analog controller

In TT's defense, this is one of the very few games that allows co-op play using a single keyboard... I'm sure that was a factor in their decision.

Sadly, there's no mouse support. It's kind of frustrating that they chose such an easy solution, not really making any PC specific adjustments at all. As for those that says the game doesn't need it, they have got to be joking or something. Having to use three sets of 4 keys is incredibly awkward. The third set is needed since the default camera behavior is insufficient. A mouse would be perfect for that, just as in most other games. Let's just hope the developers are reading the feedback, although I doubt they take it seriously.

Map your keys to move with WASD and then the arrow keys to camera movement, then just accomodate the rest however you see fit. That way it will be easier to move the camera and move at the same time with the keyboard. Unless you are playing co-op with one keyboard.

Gamepad gamepad gamepad, no seriously, gamepad.

I used to play racing games with just keyboard so using just keyboard for games isn't such an unbelievable inconvenience to me, it's really not that difficult. You can change the button layout on the keyboard (unlike some uninformed trouble makers said earlier), so you can have whatever set up you want. If you want to really enjoy this game get a gamepad.

Playing this game myself using keyboard and I don't mind it at all. No issues in controlling the characters in any fashion.
