Keymapping
Just like BFBC2 they have multiple "styles" of playing the game, on the ground, in a vehicle, or aircraft. However, the biggest flaw with their setup, besides having to rebind everything per "style" is that the game doesn't know when certain keys are already used in another "style." For example, if I bind a key to parachute for a car, but want that to be my pull up on my aircraft it does know this and complains about it... So, I ended up just using my 360 controller when I fly (only). Which, the 360 controller integration is amazingly good, probably a simple feature, but it seamlessly picks up my 360 controller input, then when I use the mouse it goes back to using keyboard+mouse setup. Just like in Batman Arkham Asylum.

Savegame Bug
I apparently ran into an issue where I did the first mission with the Ular faction, but at the end I had to go to bed thinking it'd be alright because it just saved... I guess I was wrong... When I started it back up the next day I thought I'd continue, I spawned in, and saw on my map the Stronghold where I was, so I went there and had to fight everyone again? So I thought... But basically I had to fight the "general respawners" that are there once you leave that particular zone... So since there was no objective text as to what to do next I decided I would capture that stronghold. Unfortunately I was unable to, couldn't find/blow up the last 2 things. Eventually I gave up and thought it'd be cool to just join another faction, however I didn't know how. There was nothing on my PDA, no icons, no objectives. So I thought, "hmm, that's strange, maybe I just need to work my way up." So I decided to go capture areas--cities--or whatever. After about 3 days (~4 hours) of this and still nothing, no objectives, no icons, nothing... I decided well maybe I ran into a bug. So I restarted the game, watched the lame unskippable cut-scenes all over again. Decided to pay attention to some dialogue and saw there were 3 factions I could join. Went to the Reapers this time and made sure I finished the first mission without quiting too soon, then saved everything and now I got objectives, I mean icons on the PDA. Objective text to help guide me is too difficult.
