I want to sincerely apologize to my crocodile teammate from that public game of Overcooked 2 we played on the sushi level. I realize I was performing poorly and might have given the impression that I was brand new to gaming.
Usually, I’m a pretty skilled player, but my brother accidentally changed my control settings to a layout that made no sense to me. I was pressing all the wrong keys, which made it really hard to play effectively.
In hindsight, I should have taken a moment to adjust my controls, but panic set in and I tried to keep going, which only made things more difficult.
If you happen to see this, I’d really appreciate another chance to team up if we cross paths again. I promise I can perform much better when my controls aren’t all mixed up!
Wrong control settings will mess up anyone’s game. I’ve definitely had those moments where muscle memory kicks in but nothing works right and you just keep making mistakes.
Overcooked turns everyone into a panicking mess, even with perfect controls. I’ve seen the calmest people start screaming when orders pile up. Your teammate probably didn’t even notice - everyone’s just running around frantically anyway.
Controls getting messed up is the worst. Overcooked’s stressful enough without figuring out which button does what while everything’s burning. Your crocodile buddy probably got it anyway - that game makes everyone look clueless sometimes.
