Rebinding Keys

[MajorRocker]

You'd think after 2 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ years, they would have patched the game so KB/Mouse gamers could rebind keys without the need of 3rd party programs.

Not being able to rebind keys is the only reason I haven't bought this game. I play with the numberpad and If I am not allowed to bind actions to the numberpad I avoid purchasing the game. It's a shame that devs don't think about their users enough to put a few hours or less into coding to allow the entire keyboard to be binded. I would rather they don't spend any time on control schemes and instead spend that time on making the game playable for most users. It is their loss.

I've been looking for an option to rebind keys but is there any at all?

I recall people talking about an external key binding program. I never looked into it since I'm fine with the game's default key settings, but it could be an option.

This game is a cheap console port, so yeah, the devs didn't invest anything into its PC version other than making it available for us to play. I don't think it was originally intended for the PC, and them porting it the way they did indicates a desire to make the game playable for more users.

I've been using AutoHotkey, and it works perfectly for any game that doesn't allow you to rebind keys.

Instead of WSAD, I've always used WSQE. So I use the following script to swap the functions of QE with AD:

#IfWinActive Transformers: War for Cybertron
q::a
e::d
a::q
d::e

Hope this helps!

There are several programs you could use to rebind, but the bottom line remains...we should have to install a 3rd party app for key binding. I never did play the game. Installed, accessed Options Menu, exited game, and uninstalled.
