Sure would be nice to have a patch update that didn’t mess up controller keybinds. Last two were ok, but we’re back to the 2042-start-my-game-after-update-and-why-aren’t-my-buttons-working!? again. Don’t understand why this is even a thing.

ya this really grinds my gears lol. takes me like 2 hours to get them settings the way I want

This is an horrible experience.How can they force all customers to reset their keybindings in 2025.It takes so long to setup and try to remember the mapping... rather quit the game that facing this at every update.EA_Leeuw / EA_Rtas could we have an official response on this please ? Will a patch be pushed urgently to restore the Keybinds ? Or are we stick to setup everything by ourselves again ? It would be worth to know before spending hours on it. I'd rather not play today and wait if a patch will be deployed shortly to restore Keybinds.

Came to see if this was only happening to me - guess not. Aren't key binds saved as like a document file? Why are these getting touched and not isolated for an update? EA/DICE, please don't let this happen every update, I cant STAND setting key binds and figuring out which ones I use to have set. I just want to play. Interestingly, it didn't reset any other settings like aim sensitivity, graphic filter toggles, GPU settings, POV, etc.

Ya know, the fact that this is the problem that it is says a few things.1) The settings across the board (keybinds/game/graphics/ui etc) are entirely too complex and sophisticated...a keybind reset snafu shouldn't be the hassle that it is, but it is because they've made it entirely too molecular and messy. I STILL can't figure out which aim sensitivity setting or control is actually the one that means anything...2) Developers haven't seemed to understand that if they're going to go with the above elaborate settings scenario....then those settings need to be treated like a sacred untouchable object. It really is a huge quality of life feature that I cannot for the life of me understand why isn't not a gaming standard across the board...3) Preparing to play a game shouldn't take hours...it shouldn't require walkthroughs, tutorials or you tube videos...it should be intuitive and simple. Anything more is a mess and caters to control freaks who can't let their food touch. Those people will ruin every good meal btw. Your performance in a game shouldn't rely on your settings...it should rely on your performance.

FYI, just like the 1.1.1.0 update, this 1.1.2.0 update messed up many keybinds. It was instantly obvious for me as I use ESDF for movement keys. Might not be as obvious for other players...If you are a player that only rebinds a few keys you might think certain game functions are broken after the udpate (e.g. steady scope might seem broken, but perhaps the keybind was reset to default). Check your keybind settings to discover what was changed by the update.I hope this helps anybody that is wondering what happened with the "broken" keybinds. Updates shouldn't change keybinds!P.S. DICE, will you please help us out with this in the future so we don't have to clear and rebind all the keybinds every time there is an update? That would be great!

Updates mess up keybinds. Again. Why.

Only game I recall playing that resets my custom binds on patch. If only that were the sole issue with this game....
