Rebind movement keys?

[k1DBLITZ⚡]

Am I missing it? It seems like I can rebind every key except for the movement keys.

I'm a lefty so WASD is a no go.

What keys are you trying to re-assign to - NUMPAD?

Also, is it not working in the main waiting area, when you're in a match, or both?

I would like to have rebound my movement keys to the cursor keys, but the ability to rebind simply didn't exist in the menu.

By default, the up and down cursor keys would move forward and backwards, but the left and right keys would rotate instead of strafe - and there was no ability to map them to strafe in game.

As as lefty, I bind keys in the image below:

Appreciate the layout picture - I'll relay this to the team.

A little more context. A typical bind I use (as a lefty) for most games.....

up arrow: move forward
down arrow: move backward
left arrow: strafe left
right arrow: strafe right
ctrl: jump
shift: prone
\: use|interact
delete, end, pagedown, insert, home, page: typically potions or gear
numpad 0: throw grenade
numpad 1: sprint
numpad 2: crouch
numpad.: switch fire mode
numpad 4: reload
numpad 7: primary weapon
numpad 8: secondary weapon
numpad 9: tertiary weapon
numpad 5: communication

My pinky can cover any key in the numpad region without the need to remove my fingers from the movement keys.

Im force to use right hand on keyboard and use arrow keys and all buttons near them as well. I wish for lots of freedom to set my controls.

We're certainly working to correct any issues control schemes as we continue with the Alpha. We understand how important it can be to the core experience, and will our do our best to support as many adjustments as we can.

Just to chime in here, I'm an ESDF guy. I simply don't play games that I can't rebind the entire control scheme. WASD SUCKS for people that type, especially if the number keys are involved.

I use my gamepad to play this game, xbox controller. but its 2018 every game needs to a way to keyblind all keys, not sure why devs keep leaving this out lol.

[CQCoder]

As far as I know, SuperHot still can't keybind. One of the reasons I haven't bought it.

I just recieved an email about the 2nd technical alpha. Will the key binds be corrected in that release?

[ProVegaGamer]

guys with me, the xbox pad works better than the keyboard. but yea they could add keyblinding for those who want to use the keyboard. gamepad works much better for me though.

If I am playing a melee class, I don't mind using the controller. However, as a ranged class - my aim is abysmal with a controller.

Well, this is disappointing. Just launched the current alpha and still no option to rebind movement keys.

I'm of the same mindeset of CQCoder, I don't play games that don't allow one to rebind the entire keyset.

As I stated earlier, this is something we're still working on, and I agree personally with you. Once I have an update on key binding adjustment, I'll be sure to post an update in this thread.

Its good to buy keyboard what lets you set custom settings for each key. Still its takes some time do settings for your keyboard where you remapped almost all keys what game uses.
