Mod Nation Controls. any way to change them?

is there any way to change the mod nation control set?

 

I am extreamly annoyed by the location of the "break/reverse" and the button to shoot triggers and robots and would love to swap them. 

 

generally speaking you dont need to hit the break and gas at the same time and thus they should probably be on the same hand. so that you can use one finger back and forth. 

 

on the other hand your quite often attempting to shoot something while driving. I am much more willing to stop pressing boost to shoot my prop trigger than i am to stop pressing boost. 

 

and AAARRRRRGHH when ever i accidentally press break when i mean to boost.

Nope.

 

Its a much requested feature but is very unlikely to be added.

I wish you could do this as well, my most hated aspect of the game is the use of the 'circle' button for shield, it's just so damn awkward, particularly while trying to drift as well! (Although, perhaps that is intentional! :smileywink:

I also wish i could shake the controller for a side swipe instead of hitting the right stick.

Shilding whilst spinning. Argh! Square should be shield and circle should be fire weapon I find square and X are pretty easy to cover with your thumb, R2/L2 acceleration/braking is an industry standard though. You just have to get used to them really. Playing modnation followed by CTR is annoying me though, I should probably play one at a time really.

I think its a silly industry standard but i have no problem with that. I mean... Im not trying to change the standard. I am just asking that I personally be allowed to change the buttons on my personal controller to drive the way i personally want to. if that negatively effects my performance in other games than thats my fault right?

if its impossible for coding reasons that suggests a failure in development.

Yeah, I agree the option to change them should be there. As for L2/R2 inputs for accelerate/brake its probably about the best thing to happen to racing games this gen. Analogue inputs are so useful.

Hi all,

 

I cant say for sure but at this point in the game's life I wouldn't expect control or settings type changes. I know that's disappointing but 99.8% of the teams efforts at this point are getting all the long anticipated DLC out.   :smileyhappy:

Re: Mod Nation Controls. any way to change them?

the analog is awesome. the problem i have is the location of other buttons around it 

 

i often find my self wanting to hit boost and stopping because i hit the break instead. 

 

I also find it hard to hit the prop trigger gun when driving because i have to take my finger off the gas or find some other trick to do so since i only use 1 finger for the shoulder buttons. 

 

if the two were swapped that would, in my oppinion, be so much better. there is no reason to use gas and break at the same time but there is all kinds of reason to use gas and trigger shoot. 

 

thats just my take
