Wonky controls (spoilers)

At the part where i run away from the guy at the beginning, it took me around 10 cases of flailing my mouse around to figure out i had to use arrow keys, and then after that, i had to do it so suddenly i couldnt even make it in time.

Arrow keys? WASD worked for me...

You mean those red arrows on the bottom of the screen? You use the Arrow Keys for them!!! ive been stuck for so long

O_o your kidding me? Really? I did it instinctively the first time. I pressed WASD automatically. I would call the controls intuitive...

I'm using a PC with keyboard & mouse, but I can't figure out how the QTE's work to get Clems arm stitched. When you click on the dot on her arm, a pair of square brackets appear. What are you supposed to do? I tried clicking the square bracket keys - nothing happened. If I hold the left mouse key down a right arrow appears on the right bracket, but clicking the right arrow key or the D key doesn't do anything. I'm just not getting it and I'm sure it should be fairly intuitive, so it's gotta just be me. Can someone tell me how you get the needle to go through?

Hold the left click, when the arrow appears, move your mouse to the right

Okay, must be some problem with my mouse. That doesn't work either :(. I'll try and get hold of another mouse. Thanks for the help.

Just thinking about it a bit more, I am using a Logitech performance MX wireless mouse. I know gaming purist don't favour them due to lag, but I have played through many of the fast shooter FP games with it and never had a problem, but I'm just wondering, do these particular qte's need a lightening fast response that maybe the wireless mouse can't keep up with? Has anyone else played through the arm stitching scene with a wireless mouse??

Must have been a glitch since when I fired up the game and tried again it worked. I did notice when I started up the game it said it was applying a patch though... so who knows :). Good thing is I got to see the gruesomeness in the end

I strongly recommend to use a controller :-)
