My Mouse & Keyboard Experience | Forums

[DraxeI]

I decided to stick with the mouse & keyboard throughout the tests and master it, even if there were flaws.

Overall I think the mouse & keyboard controls are pretty comfortable despite all the criticism I hear.
And being able to customize the controls is a major bonus compared to the gamepads.

My settings were at follows:



Using a Corsair M65 @ 1600 DPI

I felt like the feint & guardbreak bindings on the mouse wheel were very uncomfortable, so I re-binded the Feint to "F" on the keyboard, and the guardbreak to Mouse4 on the mouse.

Using the mouse to change stances works pretty well with my settings, but there are times in fights where I feel like the stance change isn't responding the way I intend it to.
It might be that the stance changes requires just enough accuracy to make it possible to miss in the heat of combat.
The reason for why I'm saying that is because in general when I feel "in control" of the fight, the mouse responds exactly like I want to.
In fights that requires a lot of changes to the guard, such as in outnumbered fights, I feel like it's not respond as it should.

I also feel that the mouse is kind of nice to use, because it feels a bit more like you're swinging your weapon around when moving guards around to parry, etc!

I tried rebinding some moves to MOUSE 4 and 5, but it wouldn't work. Using my trusted MX 518, don't know if it was a bug in the game.

Take good care of that mouse. I had that series for at least 10 years before my last one died, only to find out they had stopped selling them over here

Yep, had the MX518, too, and sadly the left mouseclick died.
Best mouse I ever had. So damn comfortable, reliable and indestructible. The Nokia 3310 of the Mice xD

@Draxel I immedtiately like you, your Avatar rocks

I agree with you, mouse works good for For Honor (more or less), but sometimes it happens that the stances are not recognized by the game. I move the mouse to the top, but it still switches to left, etc.
However since I suck with Controlle, I guess I've to stay with kb&m
