How are the PC controls?

[TK (Shad)]

Still crappy ported versions with no accurate prompts like AC1??

They are a little bit better, but I play with a Xbox controller which is much better for this game IMO.

But does it SHOW the xbox button prompts when using a controller?

Overall still slightly clumsy and frustrating in places,combat especially I find.All very well laid out and clear,but tends to get it's knickers in a knot right when you don't need it to.Not bad enough to spoil what is a great game though.There are prompts yes,very clearly.

Glad you asked this quesiton Synapse. I was burned by buying AC1 (or was it 2) for the PC, and even using a game pad, and trying to change settings, the game was unplayable. I even searched on forums for fixes and could find none. Could not make it all the way through the tutorial, as could find no way to do one or two of the moves. Very frustrating.

it shows what keys you have bound on the kyeboard, not controller icons

i use a nostromo and 6b mouse and just rebound everything to priority comfort easy as
its much easier to rebind throu the ingame menu than to reprogram hardware

It clearly shows the xbox 360 controls on screen as in the whaling aim with LT, fire with RT and so on.It shows the directional pad for weapons and LB and RB in menus and each button on the controller very clearly.As it does in all AC games.

You have the wrong end of the stick here,the OP was obviously on about using a controller,it says so in the second post way before you gave your pennies worth.I answered him.I,like the majority of AC players use a controller and not a keyboard.This whole thread is obviously about a controller not keyboard.You should have got that point a while ago before you posted.Clearly!Read the post correctly,have your facts straight before flaming.
