that has 2 extra on top, i have a habu, but the extra 2 you probably couldnt get to the extra ones on top

looking at the pic they look a tad uncomfortable

Ive never thought about anything like this before but now you bring it by them not providing full customisation and therefore stopping yourself and other disabled people playing this and other games like this isnt it sort of discrimination.

I mean c'mon how hard would it be for them to make it fully customisable?

i totally agree,

i don't understand why they can't make all games fully customisable

what about track ir ? http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/

anything like that as that tracks head movement in games . surely if it int working in that that would and should be approached.

there must be programs out there to let you assign things to other buttons.

Maybe they didn't think that some people only played games by using there chin to control the mouse..

mate i didnt think you were being serious at first but well played, i just dont understand how you do everything with your head

nearly everything i use the mouse, for typing i use click-n-type program (on screen keyboard).

gareth170, I sympathise with what you are saying. When a game doesn't allow fully customisable controls it does irritate me also. I really don't get why the developer does it.

as u see in my pic, i use my chin, my chin nearly covers all 5 buttons so whatever i assign to them i can easy use. e.g forward, fire

tom91x91 · 31 Jan 2011 at 21:44

ah ok, didnt mean to sound rude or anything was just interested, much respect to you!

LoL well done captain obvious ....

You should get in touch with the developers gareth and let them know your situation and also the fact that the lack of effort on thier part to make the game customisable has made it unplayable for you and other disabled people.

You never know you might just get them to re-think the lack of customisation and address it in a future patch, got to be worth a quick email.

I would email these guys at EPOC neuroheadset http://www.emotiv.com/apps/epoc/299/

A friend of mine is looking into it as he can move one arm and this looks like the biz. It may help.

Would be interesting to see a video how you play. Surely if you can browse the internet, build a rig and play games, you can upload a video to youtube?

I know they are expensive but have you thought about a head pointer ?
Or there is that Integramouse thing which you control with your mouth, but i think that's £1000+ !!
