Where personalizing shortcuts?

I bought the PC version, not the console version. Controls made for Consoles, not PCs, no possibility of personalizing shortcuts. Since it's a shooter, I give it a 1 for the controls alone.

Great f*cking game

-Excellent story and characters -Great graphics (despite some minor UE5 issues) -Good AI (they could avoid collisions better?) -Release is better than expected 7800x3d 32gb ram 2tb NVME 4080 super -Running the game max settings @ 1440p with DLAA and frame gen at auto. 80+fps always and never drops bellow that. This game does have flaws such as doesnt run at peoples expectations with lower end rigs... Seriously its IMO a next gen game that will need a little polish here and there but NOWHERE near the crap Cyberpunk 2077 was released and I still havent finished that game as its flaws and general story line just turned me off. Now there are small pop ins once the game loads but after a few minutes it dramatically reduces or is non existent. Also the frame gen latency issue is for people who have very low FPS to make it seem playable so it ends up being like your streaming a game from somewhere else. This is non existent at much higher FPS along with this game not being some competitive shooter online, it doesnt detract from it even if Im not noticing it. Im used to Apex Legends with over 150ms latency so people need to curb their tears. To the developers who will never read this, great job! I love the sounds from the zone... it just pulls me in when hearing the distant cacophony of bullets. Very immersive!

Are we even playing the same game?

Amazing Game! Graphics look great. Environments are great. Map is HUGE. Exploration everywhere! Performance runs amazing on Ultra settings on a regular 3090. Story seems good with plenty of choices and freedom to solve problems your way. I have not experianced any of the issues the other reviewers have talked about. Have had zero technical issues. Shaders only compiled on first launch. Only catch was I had to swap the default keybinds for directional lean and the two quick use slots, but that was personal preference and by no means a problem.
