Alright, I finally (FINALLY) got War for Cybertron for the PC. It's been almost 2 weeks since i bought the game and I'm already at Death of Hope (I've only played for aboiut 10 hours, not all together). More to the point, I can't figure out how to use grenades of any sort. How do they detonate? And I can't use the magma-frag launcher at all. It says RBM or something like that to denonate, but I have no idea what that could possibly mean. Does anyone playing PC know how to use Grenades. Help is greatly appreciated.

I don't play the PC version... but on the Xbox the Magma Frag Launcher is Right Trigger to fire and Left trigger to detonate.

I suggest you are seeing "RMB" perhaps? As in Right Mouse Button?

Hope that helps.

most PC games have the option to remap keys, and going into that usually gives a look at what they're already set to. I suggest this if you're really stuck.

The PC version doesn't allow you to remap keys... unfortunately.

Well to detonate the magma-frag launcher it's the right mouse button and to throw a grenade/drop thermal mine it's g.

Welcome to the War for Cybertron PC wastelands...enjoy the complete lack of software support, the nonexistent patches, the never-to-be-released DLC packs, and the runamok hackers in multiplayer mode (when you can find a live match).

You can find a bunch of us complaining about these problems on the Activision and Steam forums. See you there!

wow. that's terrible. I mean, I'm pretty sure the console version lets you remap controls(at least, the interviews with Matt Tieger have him mentioning the option to change the transform action to another button) and I haven't played a PC game in years that's not had that option. I've not played all that many pc games, but yeah, if this basic feature isn't in, no wonder pc players are griping about getting a 2nd class version of the game.

Yes it is indeed a harsh place to game.

Now of course, since it is a PC I can get handfuls of key remapping software for free.
