    Custom controls Overpower Bow glitch

    I noticed in one of the recent patches the option to remap controllers has appeared, which is much appreciated. However, there's a bug whereby using custom controls means the Overpower Bow button combination becomes the same one as melee Overpower, and doesn't work. Try to and explain better:

    Under default controls, Overpower is R1 + R2 (Dualshock 4 controller). If you switch to Alternate controls, it becomes Square + Triangle (for melee), but remains R1 + R2 for Bow.

    Now if I make a custom control scheme, and use Square and Triangle for light and heavy attack (just like with the Alternate layout), both Overpower bow and melee become Square + Triangle. Even if no archery abilities are mapped to Square or Triangle, the button combination still doesn't trigger Overpower for the bow.

    I can confirm that this is an issue for me too. It need a workaround or custom controls will not work with light or heavy attacks on square and triangle.
    I just want to have the alternative controls on the custom control scheme so I can change a few other keys to my satisfaction.

    neither "R1 + R2" nor "Square + Triangle" works on Overpower Bow in latest version,
    although "Square + Triangle" works on Overpower Melee.

    would there be any officia response?

    Hey isidamn,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention, I've passed it onto the team to take a closer look into.

    I would advise that you refrain from necro-ing older threads. If the thread that best represents the issue your having is no longer active, please open another.
