This is speculation, but my guess is that if you're using keyboard controls it'll actually show whichever key has been bound to 'Use', but that screenshot shows what happens when you use a controller. There are so many controllers in so many different configurations, and they can be set up in so many different ways, that it'd be impossible for JAW to list the precise label printed on the button.

Ah the joys of playing Stranger with a 360 controller.

"Press "Joyaxisz-" to fire." Next to absolutely useless. Though I'm not entirely sure if "Press [use] to use" is any better, or actually worse.

I wish you guys selected another screenshot for the Alfs escape one, that slig makes me want to literally strangle someone...

Its my second most hated slig in the whole game, right behind the second last slig in Freefire zone...

Also, those screenshots look great. I might need to buy some sunglasses before playing it, though. :D

What about the Xbox 360 gamepad? That's pretty much the standard for PC gamepad layouts, and most games with gamepad support will switch in the Xbox buttons in menus. Most 3rd-party pads also mimic the 360, so they usually match up.

Since the game is coming out on Xbox one and like you said, it's a very standard controller for PC. I reckon it will have 360 support.

Without consulting the pause menu, please tell me which button is [USE].

Just mash random keys until you find one that works, fuck sake Manco.

Why have tutorials then?

Game says use [Use]. Check Controls menu. It says Use=Ctrl. So you use [Ctrl] to [Use]. Also, while you're at it, you can consult the rest of the controls. It would be better if all the in game art changed depending on what the controls are binded to but if it's too complicated, too time consuming (and therefore too costly) then whatever. They're not the first game to do it and they won't be the last. Imagine most PC gamers consult the controls anyway. It's really not that big a deal.

Although maybe you guys should in case Matthewmatosis turns his ire towards it ;)
