Controller buttons switched/different?

I know I’m in the incredibly small player-base that uses a controller (PS4), so I’m sure controller issues go under the radar all the time. None of them have been annoying enough for me to create a post until patch #10, though.

Controller keybinds are now different, some completely switched. Why did you do this to us controller underlings. We can’t change our controls, why you suddenly change what has been working since beta? :frowning:

  • Sprint + weapon special action (clicking both sticks at same time, L3 + R3) now opens up text chat. This has gotten me killed twice already. I have to react quickly and press start on PS4 controller to close chat. I’d like to completely disable text chat on controllers, but rebinding keys on controller is currently not an in-game feature. Or at least make it a button that’s currently not mapped to anything relevant (RB, for instance).

  • The barter and inspect action have been switched. Holding square now barters, and pressing R3 inspects. This doesn’t cause any major damage and I can adjust, but why change this?

I’m sure there’s more, but if I’m not able to customize my controls beyond “default” and “advanced”, can you at least not change them? Is this an error? I’m curious of the rationale of randomly changing our un-customizable controls?
