Hi!Back when Heat was released, I bought it only to see, that I was not able to edit the buttons for the xbox one controller.Now it is the same story again for Unbound.As a disabled player with a limited wrist movement, I have no chance to controll the game properly. I have to be honest here: It is 2022, and there is so much being done for accesibility! We even have all that gender stuff in the game. But somehow, as well as in Heat, you absolutely forgot about disabled players!Is there no chance to be eventually able to edit the bindings of my controller? I bought Heat, and could not play. Now it was almost the same story with Unbound. How could anybody miss this?I am really sad now, my favorite franchise is not playable for me.Thanks for any input.

This really does need to be added to the game, One of my friends is disabled and button re-mapping in games is how he can comfortably play them. More game developers really need to make this a standard practice in their games!! Anyways hopefully we will see this in a future update. 😎

Once again the Manual gear shifters are terribly placed. I want to drive Manual but having them on the shoulders is basically unusable. This was a consistent problem with Ghost's NFS games and it's still an issue here.So for all of our sakes can you look into making this happen?

@m1k3ol It is also on PC with Controller.This alone is a shame!

Hi @DFuG-ElfVierzehn Thank you for sharing your experiencing and raising feedback on this, While I can't guarantee anything I would be happy to bring this up to the team to be aware of in case we might see an update for something like this in the future.

I'm not disabled myself, but I'm generally baffled that this has been a thing since the... dun dun duuuun... NFS Payback! For Heat, through Frosty Mod Manager you could have modded in custom bindings for a controller and that helped since I went from Forza Horizon games and the control scheme I prefer using I am able to bind into other racing games yet NFS has to be special where you can't do it!Come on devs, it's the end of the freaking 2022 yet you can't add something as simple as that into your games? I don't know whether I should laugh or cry at this...

It is generally not possible to edit the button mapping on a controller. I received the information from a friend, who bought it on Steam. This prevented me from buying yet, as it would be the same hassle for me, as with NFS Heat - in the end, I just played it a few hours, as it hurt too much in the hand.

@StolleJay Ahh, yeah I double checked now

I thought the keybinds menu worked, but it's just for keyboard, not my DualSense

Yes! =) And this definitely has to be changed! That really has to be a standard feature nowadays. It makes me sad, however, this way I will not buy it, as I cannot control it.
Thanks for your replies, though. Maybe the right person cares about that issue, because it really is an issue.

@DFuG-ElfVierzehn I feel you. Although I’m not physically disabled. I’m old and be gaming for decades and years of using a pad have taken there toll on my fingers. And in some games mainly my go to F1 games I have to rebind buttons or face excruciating pain after a short period.
