Controls?

[Shiverblade]

While this game looks good, 90% of Bandai Namco games that i have bought, have had so garbage keyboard controls, that i have always either refunded them shortly after or stopped played them, so what i am wondering is if this game will have garbage controls aswell?

I have a Xbox one controller, but i have too hard a time using it, iv been using keyboard and mouse for over 25 years, just randomly switching to controllers impossible...

I have played Tekken 7, SoulCalibur VI, Tale of Berseria, God Eater 1 & 2, Darksouls, Little Nightmare. With no issue about Keyboard and Mouse. What 90% you talking about, or I misunderstood something ?

I'm not a Scamco Bandai fanboy, actually I slightly dislike them for many reasons but Keyboard and Mouse isn't a problem in their products.

Your asking me to remember games i have refunded... damn..... Dragon Ball FigherZ, Jump Force, and Dark Souls II, those are what i can remember, there have been others, but my memory is more crappy than the KB & M controls of Dark Souls II...

So far I'm playing it and the keyboard controls could be better. They aren't the worst, but The Surge 2 has it beat for better KB+M controls.

I can vouch that the keyboard bindings are extremely annoying. Taking my hand off the mouse to press the right shift key then a F1 key to use an ability have cause so many of my deaths. Thankfully though i have an input mapper for my PS4 controller and it has made gameplay much easier, besides the occasional fritz of character movement, which does nothing to affect me in combat, it just looks like odd flickering when you're moving about outside combat. So basically walking and running look less smooth but it works better than the stupid bindings and trying to fix them. Which i have tried and it only made it worse.

If this layout had the buttons next to them it at least would be nicer. It's very console-focused for the UI which kinda sucks

u cant walk on keyboard, which means no sneak behind enemy for stealth kill ;/

I just hold block. It's pretty slow, but it works.

The standard keyboard controls aren't good - but you can rebind them.
And I want to say that, even as a leftie using the arrow keys to move, I was able to find keybinds I am very happy with.
But yes, walking is not possible on keyboard, so you will have to "sneak" by blocking and moving that way.

One warning for keyboard users, though: https://steamcommunity.com/app/678960/discussions/0/1628539187768662472/
Not an insurmountable issue, but still worth knowing that this might happen to you and how to easily avoid the issue entirely in case it does.

every good game like nier automata or dark souls have bindable walk button, but not this one, i can't even imagine what were they thinking

Fully rebindable on Keyboard+Mouse, and you can also bind extra mouse buttons if you have them.

The default scheme is bizarre, but that's not an issue when the game allows you to rebind.

I'm always playing with keyboard and mouse too, and it's no different with Code Vein. Some of the keybinds did pisses me off, but it wasn't really a problem since I can easily rebinding them with a much simpler buttons.

exactly lol since there isnt one, mouse and keyboard players cant walk behind enemies that havent noticed them unless they use block to slow their movement
