Keyboard mapping problems

Thanks! 

Thanks for the things to think about! 

Thanks for writing this up. I tried this workaround, but it didn't quite work. Yes, the arrow keys became functional, however, moving forward with the arrow key, while also using the mouse to steer, caused a weird wobble effect on the screen that would have quickly given me a headache. I verified that this only happened with the arrow keys and not with WASD. 

I switched using the Windows PowerToys keyboard remapping feature, and that worked. It's not a perfect solution because I have to turn it on and off when I start and stop the game, but until EA fixes this properly, it will get me by. 

Add another Irate lefty to the list, will try the workaround hoping I don't have to refund.

PC/Steam

thnx for this it works but yes the camera jank gets annoying

I found the same , only got the jank when moving forward and steering with mouse, Never heard of Windows Power Toys will look into it :)

OK found power toys installed, set keys, tested in game, works perfect. I'm not a softwear type guy and I found this whole proces stupid easy to set up :) . Turning it on and off is small price to pay for an excelent solution until they make a real fix.

tthnx for the info

I find this keyboard mapping issue highly questionable.
This is not possible in 2024.
I personally have trouble using the WASD mapping with the hand that is supposed to be there.
I can't replace WASD with the arrow keys, just because the arrow keys are bound to the eye? Are you kidding?
All AAA games have the ability to do this!
And I regret trusting EA again.
If I had purchased Veilguard on Steam, at least I could have gotten an immediate refund of the purchase.
Since it is unplayable for me.

I just started the game and tried to remap to arrow keys. I suspect mapping was built in for basic keyboards only? Let's go EA, get this fixed immediately. I know no other way to control my game, without my arrow keys!

please help us, this affect 10-15% of all gamers.

It's not just WASD/arrows that won't rebind properly, so it's way more than just the left-handed people affected. It's unbelievable that this wasn't caught before launch.
