No walking button on PC version, movement feels weird without controller.

So apperantly, I find it very frustrating, that the game totally feels like a ported version from console. If you use a keyboard and mouse instead of controllers you will know what I'm talking about. The movement of Cal feels weird, when you're changing direction to left and right. I paid for the game too on PC, and I know it was optimized for controller, but at least a walk toggle button would be nice for PC users, yet it's a story oriented game, where running like an idiot all the time kills the feeling. And I wouldn't like to switch to a controller, just because of this. (and I don't have one, to be honest).

  • Couldn't agree more. I've been searching for a way to walk for an hour and can't find anything. Some of us like to ROLEPLAY EA....

  • @nospaferrThe same. A walk button was literally the first thing I looked for once I was able to control Cal. It is an exploration game with lots of amazing views...I really wish I could walk around at a slower pace for better immersion.

  • I believe there won't be an update on this for us, as I know EA.. got a controller from a friend until I finish the game, but I just hate it... Not sure which one is worse, no walking, or using a controller..

  • @nospaferrUsing a controller is always worse. 🙂
    I really wish developers would get in a PC UI / settings specialist, when they port console native games over to the pc. The capabilities and idiosyncrasies of the two hardware sets are completely different. One spec does not fit all. Hopefully Respawn is in the feed back loop, because a walk button is a simple addition to put in.

    Well you will walk if you hold your right mouse button aka use the light saber as light.

  • @nospaferr Same here. I wouldn't think of using a gamepad in a 3D game. Mouse-look is absolutely mandatory for me.
    I, too, miss a walk-button, maybe coupled with the drop-button? Running around all the time is pretty unimmersive and makes platforming harder sometimes.
    Another thing I really don't like, is that we changing target is always on moving the mouse, and there's no way to change that. Moving the mouse while fighting happens all the time when mashing buttons. Makes targeting a pain when fighting groups.
