The controls are a bit weird as the perspective is over the characters right shoulder which takes a bit of getting used to, it works better but its a very atmospheric game feels a bit like a highly polished Doom 3 :D

You can use stasis fields to slow time in places as well which is a nice touch

I will perserver with it tonight (wife permittting Lol)

Congratulations to EA for providing us Triple Headers with another game that works out of the box !

Some bad news guys ... :(

I have the game now and 5040x1050 isn't showing up in the options ... my guess is because it is 57Hz
4320x900 is showing up so I guess I'll have to play it like that.

I did find a config file here ... C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorLocal SettingsApplication DataElectronic ArtsDead Space
... but changing the res and refresh rate in there just resulted in it dropping down to 1680x1050 ... even if I made it read only.

I'll post again if I find anything else ... 8)

dagnammit!

Still 4320x900 ain't that bad! Better than 1920x1200 (or BIA:HH ;)). I trialled Crysis Warhead in that res so I could get higher settings and it wasn't a disappointment :)

FYI, Dead Space works out of the box with SoftTH 1.07b just fine (1.08rc3 gave me blank left and right screens)...

Now my problem is that I am a numpad + mouser, I ALWAYS program every game using the numpad arrows for movement, but Dead Space won't let me use the forward and back arrows on the numpad for movement...ACK! I can't use "WASD", never have...

heh, problem for me was I learned to keyboard+mouse with "Terminator: Future Shock", one of the first games (I know of) to use mouse look (by default push forward on the mouse -> looks down, so since then I always have to reverse the Y-axis in games)...

And for me, playing Duke Nukem 3D (yeah!) and other similar games it made more sense to have all the keys on the numpad...

/ = reload * = special - = zoom
7 = lean left 8 = move forward 9 = lean right
4 = turn left 5 = target enemy 6 = turn right + = jump
1 = strafe left 2 = move back 3 = strafe right Enter = crouch
Ins = use/open Del = grenade

I have used the above for as long as I can remember...Dead Space is the first game that won't let me map the 8-UpArrow and 2-DnArrow keys to move forward and backward...it lets me map all the other keys oddly enough...

Looking for the config file now to see if I can hand edit the settings...BLERG!

**snap*** I played M+KB on my own pc for the first time with T:FS, great game.

I get real annoyed with console ports and key mapping. At the moment I can't seem to get the toggle command mode in BIA:HH to work on the keyboard and have to pick up the 360 controller and press the left trigger to do it! (I have tried the .ini and the in game menus)
