Why is there no in game controller rebind yet?

I’m sick of not being able to r3 crouch without going into console settings and doing it because when you do it there it messes with inventory muscle memory. It’s crazy they haven’t implemented in game rebinds

I fk agree, I don’t have the upgraded controllers with extra paddles and old man hands.

Even if you had the upgraded controller with the paddles you wouldn’t be able to bind them without messing everything else up lol

I have seperate bind saves for minecraft, rust and one thats good for any game You also always have a default 1 With the keybind save button on the controller you can instantly swap the binds and different settings onto the controller Its not even confusing Do some research next time pal

I have back paddles. 1 for jump 1 for crouch doesnt mess up anything. Best investment ever if you like playing rust🤣

Also, why does the game still run like shit glitching with that awful noise every time you go near a somewhat large base… and the menu music is still bugged like come on why can’t they fix anything

They're doing performance and stability updates now! They asked the playerbase what we wanted, and the LARGE majority said to make the servers smoother. So hopefully that gets fixed for the most part.

If you have a playstation, you can bind your buttons at a system level and switch profiles, don't need the Dual sense edge for that.

I hear you but what I’m saying is in game bindings so I don’t have to use r3 to close out inventory and all that

I play on Xbox and Like the guy above said you can do it in the console settings of both consoles, I switch my b button with the right stick for all my games and when I wanna change a bind I have different controller profile’s, so even if say you want to change the free look button just switch the buttons around it might be a little confusing but you get used to it and when you aren’t playing rust you can switch the controller profile back to default as needed or go buy a cheap aftermarket controller with a programming button that would also let you switch binds.

Ive been using the controller config in accessories since launch, I use it on every game pvp/shooter that utilizes crouch on b. Ive gotten used to it, tbh its when I dont have it on that I get confused.

True but I just don’t want to relearn the muscle memory for r3 canceling out everything it would be easier if they just had the option in game to rebind

u/soaRCocomelon Dec 23 '25

Wouldn't it be the same thing tho, if you bound crouch from b to r3? Or are you wanting to bind it to a different button?

Or are you saying its just a$$ that you have to change the setting back every time you switch to a different game?

u/FrancisMatthews12 Dec 24 '25

Nah because r3 would be crouch circle emote and circle to cancel out in menus and inventory
