Favourite control scheme for FPS games

[Erik_Twice]

S and G are strafe
W crouch

You can't crouch and strafe at the same time. Altough I guess it's not used much in Quake XD

You can start by explaining this abomination. What possessed you to do such a thing? Do you basically map all movement to the mouse and all actions to the keyboard?

Thats not that uncommon. Alot of Quake players still use the right click move setup. The first people I heard of using it were Descent players who could not afford a stick or yoke.

I basically came up with it when I was playing Quake 2 at a LAN and realized that just using the arrow keys wouldn't cut it if I wanted to stay competitive. I'd need to use the mouse to look around and I built a control scheme from scratch based on that.

S and G are strafe
D and F are move back (just F if I can't map two keys to one action)
Mouse 1 fire
Mouse 2 move forward
Space jump
W crouch
E use
R reload
T secondary fire
Y, H, A, Q, B, Z are my most commonly used extra function keys, in order of their use.

Damn, and I thought the guy I met that had S switch to his rocket was weird.

You can, tip of the finger on W, ball of it on S. I rarely find myself needing to crouch and strafe for long periods of time, and certainly never under high stress situations.

WASD or GTFO!

Haha, that look so unconfortable =P

In TF2 when you rocketjump you can vary your height by crouching and airstrafing is important so as to not get airshotted so that's why I noticed =P

GTFO!

How do you play GTFO? I would think you would want back right there with the rest of your movement keys

Perhaps GTFV would work instead?

I rarely rocketjump as a soldier in TF2. It's not one of the classes I regularly play.

Neither do I, but, I do know that I hate that stupid black box. It makes some people nearly invincible.

I personally like the scout, pyro, and spy. Though I'll play sniper with the hunstman or demoman every once in a while.

Anyway, I really can't see how anybody could use anything but the WASD configuration. That's just me though.

Dual analog sticks for me. I hate keyboard and mouse for most video games.
