This post has been edited to include the new additions to the control scheme I've created.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Triangle/Y = Melee Attack
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Circle/B Alone = Royalguard [Dante: Circle/B + Forward = Royal Release]
[Note: Royal Release must executed with perfect timing.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Nero: Buster/Buster Parry]
[Note: Buster Parry must be executed with perfect timing.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[DmC: Circle/B Alone = Parry]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[DmC: Circle/B + Directional Input = Angel/Demon Evade]
[Note: Demon Evade must be executed with perfect timing. Otherwise, this function will directly default to Angel Evade.]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
X Button on Sony Controller/A = Jump/Side-roll/Backflip
[Nero: Table Hopper]
[Note: Table Hopper must be executed with perfect timing.]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Square/X Button on MS Controller = Swordmaster
[Nero: Aerial Rave/Showdown/Maximum Bet]
[Dante: Hold 2 seconds to execute Drive/Overdrive with Rebellion.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[DmC: Square/X Button on MS Controller = Launch]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
R1 = Manual or Toggle Lock-on [Change Function in Game Menu.]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L2/Left Trigger = Long Range Attack [Firearms]
[Press the Select/Back Button to change to Gunslinger/Gun Special mode.]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
R2/Right Trigger = Devil Trigger Distortion/Devil Trigger Explosion [Hold for 2 seconds to execute.]
[R2/Right Trigger = Devil Trigger Extra [Tap after executing Devil Trigger Explosion.]
[Nero: Ex-Act/Devil Trigger]
[DmC: Demon Distortion/Devil Trigger]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Tap R2/Right Trigger once to Distort, hold at least 2 seconds for Devil Trigger Explosion.]
[You will only morph into Devil Trigger Form after executing a Devil Trigger Explosion.]
[Note: Devil Trigger Extra must be activated with an extra button tap on R2/Right Trigger after executing a Devil Trigger Explosion.]
[Devil Trigger Extra will awaken Quicksilver and Doppelganger modes.]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L1/Left Bumper = Trickster/Darkslayer Air Trick [For Vergil]
[L1/Left Bumper = Devil Bringer (Snatch) for Nero]
[DmC: L1/Left Bumper Alone = Demon Ophion]
[DmC: L1/Left Bumper + Forward = Angel Ophion]
[Trickster's Setup Should Be: Trickster Alone = Air Trick]
[Trickster + Directional Input = Dash/Skystar/Trick Up/Trick Down]
[Knockdown: L1/Left Bumper = Flipper Recovery]
[Note: After being knocked down, activate Trickster/Devil Bringer/Darkslayer/Ophion to execute "Flipper," a Recovery Teleport Maneuver. The animation will show the character moving up off the ground and teleport towards the enemy in quick succession.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Select = Switch R2/Right Trigger from Normal Long Range [Firearm] Attack to "Gunslinger Style" Attack
[DmC: Select = Switch R2/Right Trigger from Normal Long Range [Firearm] Attack to "Gun Special" Attack]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left & Right on D-Pad = Switch Melee Weapons
[DmC: Switch Angel/Demon Weapons]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up & Down on D-Pad = Switch Long Range Weapons [Firearms]
[DmC: Same]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
R3/Press in Right Stick = Taunt
[Lose the "Center Camera" Function (R3/Press in RS) since almost no one uses it -- especially in the heat of battle.]
[Besides, compared to everything the player is getting at the same time, it's a very small sacrifice.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L3/Press in Left Stick = Cycle Lock-on Target
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left Analogue Stick = Move Character [Characters will no longer walk in Lock-on Mode.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right Analogue Stick = Move Camera [Change X/Y Axis in Game Menu.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit:
There are a few things that need fixing.
Here's the new layout for the D-Pad.
D-Pad Up = Cycle Melee Weapons
D-Pad Down = Cycle Ranged Weapons
D-Pad Left = Quicksilver
D-Pad Right = Doppelganger
--------------------------------
And the Yamato for Dante can be its own Melee Devil Arm.
The Swordmaster [Square/X] function for Vergil should be "Spiral Swords" and "Blistering Swords."
The [Select/Back] functions for Nero and Vergil should be Taunt, while [R3/Press in Right Stick] could be Lock-on Cycle (same as L3/Press in Left Stick).
If a mod could edit this post (because my last post ran out of time) then that would be great. Thanks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This isn't too different from the "official" control scheme.
