Why did they have to mess with Mouse/Keyboard?

Yea, it's a very hard button combo. It's really gay.

I can't really get mad about it, though. At this point, I'm just numb to the mounting disappointment.

I wish I was. I had such high hopes. I thought that with the way H:PC came out and the fact that this would be Vista only they would have fine tuned this thing to be a contender. I didn't mind the delays because if they were willing to delay it they were probably fine tuning it. Guess not. This game feels way too much like a port.

They should have realized that instead of going the rout of "Lets spend less money and try and use every bit of code and resources from the xbox version" They would have made more money recoding controls and optimizing, in turn selling a ton of copys of vista along with the game.

can't you change the commands to whatever keys you want? like all other PC games.

You can, but there are so many buttons that some are going to be inconvinient. For me, the melee button is "F", and my reflexes hit "R" a lot, which is actually reload. I don't want to switch them either because I have to reload fast at times. You'll see when you get it.

I have a control scheme I use on all FPS's I'm useless without changing my controls first, H2V will have to change for me.

As for your sluggish mouse problems, buy a 1600 DPS (or higher) gaming mouse. I suggest the Logitech MX 518, it has adjustable DPS, 500 - 800 - 1600, or install the software and set your own levels.

i honestly believe they did it to make people spend money on the controllers.

Im with you on that one. Also they made the in game text box pretty horrific that for the first time ever I was contemplating getting a mic. Say you map your chat key to 'T' like in haloce. When you go to type if you hit the 'T' key the chat window goes away. So you have to hit T again to bring the chatbox back up and finish typing. In the heat of a game this can get pretty annoying. Not to mention the chat window is quite hard on my eyes and all text is one bland color. Though I do love the added emoticons.

Agreed. I've been using my MX518 and it feels just like halo pc and ce...

orly? Maybe Ill invest in a gaming mouse. So, jonesy, vehicles drive smoothe and effortlessly for you?

I prefer my ball mouse. I've had nothing but bad experiences with optical mice, and on top of that, I don't feel the need to purchase expensive gamer equpiment because, put quite frankly, I'm not a gamer. I don't buy into the whole shelling out tons of money to have a good time.

Why is it that the casual player and modder always gets shafted?

same here, the gaming mouse pwns. i have a razer copperhead, which is cheapest at circuit city (most of em even have em in stock) but make sure you do in store pick up form online, it gets you $15 off i think. its also ambidextrous for all you lefties out there . A good gaming mouse truly helps in general computer work, gaming, and 3d modeling and design work. Mine i can change from 400-800-1600-2000 dpi.. i think.. and it also has memory on it so i can store gaming profiles on the mouse. Gaming laser mice are also super accurate, and the adjustable dpi settings on the fly, means you can instantly change your mouse sensitivity in game, making it fast for general walking, and slower for precision sniping. i recommend them very much. the top picks of all the mice in performance are the razer copperhead, and the logitech G15 i think (or whatever there top end gaming mouse is)
