Console port, meant to be played with controller (Y=head
-legs=A
-arm=X
B=other arm?)
Simple as watch color on controller.

It's a bad console port. Skim over the controls and change them to your liking and you'll get used to it.
Head = taunting and eagle vision
Empty hand = interacting
Feet = strafing
High profile = running
Hope this helps.

You should've played the first game. There is a tutorial that explains the puppeteering concept. You're supposed to know about it. Right now, you can just open the controls menu and memorize all the symbols and the buttons corresponding to them.

Love when people complain about something in Steam forums that they can easily find the answer to when they press Esc, go to Options, and Controls. Tells you all the buttons associated with each symbol they want you to press.

Use keyboard and mouse and if you already played other pc games (Most of the time shooters) the controls are not hard to get used to.

Dude, go into the controls and change them to what you want them to be. Then "head image" can be the left arrow key, or Z, or whatever other button you want

I disagree entirely. I'm strictly a PC gamer, but never understood people who think mouse and keyboard is better.

Sure, for some games it is. But a game like Assassins Creed was built for controllers, not for keyboards, and controllers were built for video games, not keyboards.

No, I mean of course that if you can play with a controller, then it is highly recommended but the keyboard and mouse are a 2nd good choice and its not hard to get used to.

Why should I have to memorize which letter is 'head' and which letter is 'legs'? instead of the stupid icon, show me whatever letter I associated with it. While in a gamepad, buttons have colours, et, on PC is all about the key combo, that, I need reminding of, not a silly icon. The controls are probably some of the worst controls I ever platyed, including the all terrain buggy in Half Life 2.
