PC New Controller Controls (FEEDBACK)

I posted a bug report on it yesterday and basically told them they shouldn't have messed with the controller set up and that the expected resolution is to revert to the old controller settings. They saw all the online negativity regarding the controller issues and have moved my report to work in progress so hopefully it is resolved soon. I don't play with K&M so without usable controller settings, the game is unplayable for me and my wife (3000+ hours combined).

 
I know there are other similar topics but I want to add my two cents and hopefully raise awareness of this issue as much as possible. 
 

the new controller settings for the 1.0 release have made the game unplayable. 
 

please can the Dev team look at changing it back. It was very disappointing having waited for this Gold release for years and having no way to play it because I have never used a mouse and keyboard. The controller layout was great before. It’s completely unusable now.

It's not completely unplayable for me, but it isn't great. It's very cumbersome to say the least.

Sincerely,

Cactus

Making another thread just adds unnecessary clutter and actually detracts from the discussion. Merged you into the already existing thread.

 
Totally unplayable now. I play on an Asus ROG Ally. Before if was perfect, now it's a confusing chore. I can't even figure out how to drop items. Total disappointment. Most of the touchscreen capability is turned off too. I hope for console players sake this isn't the setup they are going to get. I wish there was a way to switch back to old setup. I played half an hour before giving up.  I'd guess Steam deck players would be facing the same problems.

Please change it back or atleast give us the option.

 
Relax fellow controller users.  Everything now is only a few hundred d-pad clicks away!

I could handle "eating" the glass jars in Alpha 21.  I could handle the brain tumor that took away my ability to "scoop and carry" water in some sort of container.  I could handle that dew collectors were also atmospheric glass smelters.  I could handle the main roads in the middle of the towns turning into a cul-de-sac.  But for FS...  Give me back my old controller scheme.

Fix for working controller inventory cursor! Go to the 7 days to die controller settings in steam big picture mode, edit the official layout right joystick “ joystick mouse “ and you will have a cursor for your inventory again!

Cheers. I'll give this a go.

 
I'm getting used to the hold triangle, slows play down cos you have to double think everything. I'll try that mouse joystick tips tho.

This gives an inventory cursor but makes aiming and navigating the menu's more difficult.  They just need to give us the option for the old schema.

 
Big thumbs down.
Had to jump on and jump in….agree with everything said. Very strange that they changed so many settings and made things more difficult and less user friendly. I keep dropping tool bar items because “down b pad” was my go to weapon. lol While I can stop that habit I don’t want to scroll over to get to it…why. And why scroll through whole inventory slot after slot in order to finally get to an item. Anyway, not lovin it. Hopefully they hear and change or give options.
