[UNSURE] Arrow keys cannot be used for movement

Why is the usage of the arrow keys for movement in Jedi Survivor removed. It was there in Jedi Fallen Order. I cannot play the game and may have to ask for a refund.

Is there going to be a fix to be able to use the arrow keys for movement like we could in Fallen Order?

Hi @jallaviking 

Thanks for reporting this issue.

I've added it to the community list and given it a TAG.

I really hope so.  I was quite keen on playing this game on launch day (I don't often pre-order games).  When, after the long download and initial recap video, I was confronted with no option to rebind the arrow keys to movement like I do in every game I play.... 😬  I'm disappointed and can only hope that a patch will be issued shortly to fix this.  I will leave the game alone for a few days and hopefully see some good news when I look again.

I've seen a lot about this game being made with accessibility in mind - so how can something simple like this, which hinders longtime PC gamers from getting going, be botched?

Bad input with keyboard.... I cant play like this... Iam left hander and i play my games about 30 years on arrow keys and on jedi survivor i cant cos you forbidden change buttons... what can i do?? For many ppl is easy but i cant enjoy game where i must use wsad buttons... its modern game and i cant change this??? Its a shame...

Hey all,

Thanks for this. 

I am not 100% sure if this is a bug, or working as designed, but I have passed this on to the teams so it can be looked into.

I fully understand that this can cause any inconvenience.

Thanks for adding it to the list, @DYSPROssium.

More than 15% of people (and therefore players) are left-handed. It should be clear that this also has to be taken into consideration in the control options. Please change as soon as possible!

Really disappointing to have to wait now. :/
