Awesome game ruined by broken controls
Beautiful game, but alas, I couldn't get past the first zero g mission. The controls/physics are entirely broken. Character doesn't move in the direction of control, plus if you even move near an object, you get flung off into random directions at random (but pretty high) speeds only to start moving at another random, high speed direction after a bit. It's happened every single time I've tried to play that mission, and since it's not too long into the game, I can't progress. I can be at total rest, then I start moving randomly (playing on kb and mouse, so I know 100% there's no stick drift or other stupidity causing this). And once moving, the random pinball mechanics start up. Since it's from 2017, I highly doubt any fixes or patches are coming, so unfortunately, this leaves it in a broken state where I can't continue. Maybe a Windows 11 thing, because I have the game installed on both my desktop and laptop, the former with AMD and the latter with Nvidia. Issue occurs on both, so it's not a GPU issue. Super disappointed, because I really wanted to like it. Was enjoying the heck out of it until encountering this game ruining bug.
Is this helpful to you?
