    BF3 - Key Binding Borked

    I've created a post on the official EA forums:

    http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/li....page#17867302

    Please login with your Origin user name / password and post your comments if you have issues with this.

    Certain keys simply cannot be re configured right now (Q / comm rose) being the most annoying as many people like me use it to strife left, which is making the game pretty much unplayable at the moment.

    Edit:
    Seems the forum admin has deleted my post. Nice. Well I'm just going to post it every couple of hours if they want to play that game.

    Edit 2:
    LOL so I tried to repost the issue and got this message:

    Okay just for prosperity here's the threads I've come across thus far on the issue:

    We need the ability to set any key to whatever we like.
    We need to be able to disable a key and for it to actually be disabled (I'm looking at you Q / Comm rose)

    PLEASE POST ONE REPLY STATING YOUR EXPERIENCE OF KEY BINDING

    So far I've encounted:

    "Hold Esc" not deleting (a reload of the game corrected this)
    Comm rose can be re-assigned to another button, but Q will still bring it up

    whether it's set in key bindings or not. For example if I set comm rose to X,

    both Q and X activate it.
    Edit 3:

    Seems the "spam" note was due to a large list of links as above, so I've hotlinked the main forum back here to see the list and updated my link to the thread on EA's forum as the top, hopefully they won't delete it this time, I'll keep updating the link above if they do when I repost it (and I will repost it as often as I can).

    CPTWHITE BF3 - Keybinding File:

    This file (in Windows 7) should be put in 'Drive Letter' > Users > *Your user folder name here* > My Documents > Battlefield 3 > settings > *here*


    I have uploaded my Control config file here in case you would like to try it, or see it at least:
    PLEASE BACKUP YOUR OWN CONFIG BEFORE YOU USE THIS
    before you load up - set the correct resolution for your monitor by opening the file with notepad

    Resolution can be set here:
