I'm sure this one topic has been brought up several dozen times, but I'd still like to bring it up again. A few days ago, I decided to test out the keyboard and mouse setup; last time I tried it I didn't even bother because of the horribly slow mouse sensitivity back in closed beta.
This time, I noticed I didn't have to throw my mouse across the table to turn more than 5 degrees, and you can't believe how happy I was. But after playing one round, I realized how horribly clunky the setup is. Holding the interact key [E] and trying to move at all is awkward; cooking a grenade [holding X] and trying to move is terribly awkward; trying to set up squad commands [hold Caps Lock and hit Q I believe, then use the mouse to aim...] is, you guessed it, terribly awkward. And another tidbit that I noticed is there's no actual separate setting for inversion of your PS3 controller and your KB/M setup.
My request to you, CCP, is to PLEASE allow us to set up personal keybindings, as the current set up is not very FPS friendly in my opinion. In contrast to the many other issues that need solving, this may seem trivial, but one of the biggest things of running a KB/M setup has always been custom keybindings, and because of the awkward setup as it is now along with no rebinding it alienates KB/M players and essentially nulls a function that has been implemented; it might even turn away some potential customers that don't like the set up and refuse to play with a controller.
tldr; current keyboard setup is incredibly awkward, please allow us to rebind our keys. |

Kitten Excrement!
Not only has this been brought up Many, Many times but the Devs are already working on it. It is not in place. It will be. Release date is unknown just like every other release date in DUST.
Use the Search, Kitten.

It shouldn't be that complicated to code and implement a custom keybinding, especially after how many builds and how many people bitching about it now? And this setup has been in DUST and not 'fixed' for how long? I know CCP is pretty good at what they do, so I don't expect their coding for basic controls to be a hardcoded nightmare; but who knows, maybe it actually is a hardcoded nightmare, and I'm wrong, which is why it's taking so long. I personally haven't seen anything on that.
My point is, this is a pretty damn important thing to fix the way I see it, and it's been way too long. Keep in mind, we're playing in a beta. The only way to get things fixed, regardless of if they have announced if it'll be implemented or not, is to request and/or complain about it. Getting something acknowledged is one thing, getting it moved up the priority list just a little is another. Being complacent about issues and chastising people for actually giving feedback to the devs, especially something that can actually be useful to players gets us nowhere.
And for the record, I did do a search, and I know they've announced it, so just chill out man. No need to get hostile over someone actually giving feedback in a beta. |

Because CCP has taken so damn long to fix a simple issue. |

As long as a keyboard can remap buttons, the controller should be able to as well... not like mouse and keyboard users didn't already have it easy. |

I agree completely, it's just the mapping on the keyboard is awkward while the controller's mapping is pretty fluid and a lot less clunky feeling, hence the issue and the big fuss over it. |

Heh, nah I use a controller. Thing is, I'd actually prefer to play with a mouse and keyboard setup because the aiming/movement is so much smoother, except I can't stand the current keyboard set up, and I can't throw orders out either without standing there like a fool for a while.
Controllers are comfy, but in this game it's hard to make the same fine adjustments that the mouse can. |

Who types with their home row letters as "Shift+A+S+D"?
I have to unlearn some professional skills (keyboarding at reasonable rates of speed) to play this game (and I refuse to).
This single issue has kept my login hours in single digits per year...and Dust was one of the reasons (as a long time Eve player) i rationalized purchasing the console hardware.
Please add customization of controls so I can return to the game. It kills me to use that sickeningly twisted key configuration (KB and Mouse FTW). |

Custom controller bindings period would be nice as some people have problems with the button layouts on the DS3 controllers as well. |

support why not, add to that. Virtually every feature that a top title has that dust is lacking should be in it.

I just read the recent email from CCP on Dust updates. I couldn't locate anything (of interest to me since I need to have remapping before I will come back and play-my problem not yours) talking about making the Keyboard mapping a reality.
I found the CCP Response Pg11 of the ThreadNaught...KB+M will be added in the next major release.
Dated August 2012-I didn't see this happen with the latest patch. :(
