I've had the PS3 version.  The galaxy map was never my favorite.  There's nothing fun about it, it's just a chore to grin and bear if you want the goodies.  I just got the PC version and as far as I can tell, the Normandy controls on the galaxy map are quite possibly the worst and clumsiest I have ever used in a video game.  Once the reapers are on to you it is near impossible to get into and out of orbit quick enough.  And its a carpal tunnel frustration just trying.  

 

Let me see if I get this right:

1. There are no directional controls for the Normandy, just the mouse?  As far as I can tell you can't change it in the key map.  Nobody there thought that arrow keys, the things that have been propelling spacecraft since Asteroids in 1977, would have been of any use to us?
2. The only way to move the Normandy is this clumsy method where you click and hold the mouse, the ship flies in the direction of the cursor, but while that is going on the mouse cursor bizarrely is also moving.
3. Once you orbit a planet to probe, the only way to spin a planet is to constantly sweep your mouse side to side as the planet jerks in rotation a tiny bit at a time?!?!?!?  You can't simply move the cursor to the edge and let the planet rotate, the development team there thought it would fun to sweep your mouse left to right a dozen or so times to make the planet spin, all while awkwardly trying to also use the mouse to launch and follow probes.   It never occurred that simply having the right and left arrow keys rotate would be nice?  WOW !!!!

I prefer not to cheat, but at this point I'm trying to figure how to get all the stuff but not have to actually do this PUNISHMENT that BioWare gave us (in my case for spending $80 anew on this game and DLC for the PC version  after enjoying it on PS3).  I'm guessing this can be accomplished with gibbed (which I'm checking out now).  

 

Any suggestions on a bypass that gets me the goodies?

I have no problem with navigating the Normandy with my mouse, WASD can't provide more directions than 8.
And you can rotate planets with A and D so your argument is irrelevant.

Whaaaaaat?

 

It's just a matter of you being used to PS3' controls instead of KB+Mouse. For me, clicking and moving the Normandy as I see fit with the mouse is as natural as breathing. It has been years since I got a Critical Mission Failure, and that "calling on" the Reapers nearly 95% of the time because of the cursed invisible destroyed fuel stations.

I got Critical Mission Failure only once. On purpose.

I have to back him up at least somewhat.

The controls on the starmap are clumsy and could have been done better. especially if the reapers hunt you and you have to go from pointing the direction to clicking the button to go into orbit... lets say that could have been done better.

 

But it's a very minor point, compared to all the other problems ME3 has due to rushing it out.

Eh, they aren't too bad.  I liked the simpler interface of ME1 though without flying the Normandy around.  Didn't seem like there was really any point to that even if you needed to mess with fuel in ME2 or avoid reapers in ME3.

All that was required was to remap the 'Enter Orbit' or 'Plot Mass Relay Destination' to the space bar and all would have worked fine.
With a multi key mouse i just used one of the buttons as a replacement [Enter] key.

[Vazgen]

Wait, there is a key for entering orbit? I always just click the Enter Orbit button in the bottom right corner

There was a few times when the Reapers are flying at me trying to catch me and actually do. Only because the Normandy got to where my mouse was and I didnt realize it and I died
