Button Configuration

[Marvel_Ham 61]

Discussing the Xbox system software with Devices & accessories here. While it allows for all buttons to be re-mapped, DayZ does not respond in the contextual menus. If it has not been considered yet, please include a way to determine what buttons are pressed or, a native customization option. Some players may require button mapping and trying to translate what is on screen can be difficult during intense encounters.

I kind of like the button mapping. I've become so used to it I use the button mapping in other games by mistake ?. It is a bit confusing at first, but it does really play well with the xbox controller.

I'll explain my point another way before it gets buried. There's nothing wrong with button mapping on Xbox, it works perfectly. The trouble is, there is no representation in-game. One solution would be for the developers to consider a native customization option. Another would be a way to re-label the UI. It could probably be handled by interns.

So.. the mapping just needs to be fine tuned.. i know there is a couple instances where more then one action is set to same button... also the hot key (Right D-Pad) is complicated. (Remove the hold option if you also require a confirm key.) Reaching across or pulling a finger twister to click on what your after out of your hot bar. 

Yes it does work well but is far from perfect.
