Under the Mouse key bind column, when attempting to change a current bind to another mouse bind, it will auto assign Mouse 5 regardless of what button is pressed.

    I refunded the game so I am no longer having this issue. Good luck to everyone.

    @VR-Rhyno The only difference for me is it assigns Mouse 6. I tried deleting the user settings, but that didn't help

    @VR-Rhyno I have this issue too and worse: I can't clear the binding!
    I hold ESC but it just quits the input. It tells me to press the SELECT button that exists on CONTROLLERS and I am on PC. So I can't bind mouse buttons at all!

    Yup. Precisely the same issue. Can't hold ESC to clear the bind either.

    Same issue.  Can't exactly bind a mouse button to ADS, etc. if it defaults to button 6 and you're unable to clear it.

    I have the same issue. (w/not being able to delete/change a keystroke)

    I just assigned it to another key, then when I chose that... I could use (hold esc) to delete it. But as most have said, anytime I map anything to my mouse...   the ADS will not work.

    What is really insane, is that I can play 3-4 minutes where ADS works, then all-of-a-sudden, during gameplay the ADS doesn't work...! (And the key-mapping have changed in the middle of gameplay.) When I go back, they are not saving.

    It's happening to me too. Very frustrating! On top of it all, if you bind the keys and then attempt to spawn in a helicopter, as you spawn you auto exit the vehicle and fall to your death. This is without pressing a button, just attempting to spawn.

    Same. It auto enters mouse button 5 as I click on the empty space, and then says press select to clear, as if I have a controller plugged in, but I don't. 

    In game then it randomly pulls out whatever I have mouse button 5 mapped to, even if I don't press that buttons. WHEN I do press MB5, nothing happens...

    Totally unplayable. Resetting to default doesn't fix it
