How do you move?

[NightKiller]

I was just interested which keys all of the RTCW players use to move around. I personally use the WASd keys because i find it very comfortable to have my hands evenly spaced out and to have the E and Q keys right ther (leaning keys).

[NightKiller]

I mostly use my mouse to aim, then my WASD keys to move, making my A and D keys strafing. I turn with the mouse and use my E and Q keys to lean. I also like this type of layout because i use the SHIFT key for sprint and this way i could put my pinkey on the shift key and i could easily move it down to the CTRL key so i could jump. The reload key (R) is also very close to me if i use the WASD way of moving and so is the T and Y keys for Team and Open chat.

What about the ever-wonderful spacebar?

I use Q to push (+salute). Z and X set up to lean, though it seems worthless in the fast-paced multiplayer environment. Use C to drop weapon. My controls otherwise are much like the default settings.

Plus, I bound = to tell people how stupid they are for tapping out when I have my medic needle right above them preparing to revive them. It does no real good, but makes me feel better when I get killed trying to revive someone who apparently doesn't want to be revived.

FYI: There's another thread about this somewhere, so be prepared to (maybe) have some humorous and not-so humorous barbs thrown at you.

I use a tactical keyboard, bought for like 25.00, from thrustmaster. All keys are arranged in circle around my left hand and the thumb is adjustable. right hand is for mouse- tilt of weapon and fire and jump. Bind the keys of tact. keyboard to whatever suits you. It does get hard to go back to regular keyboard, ie. -when you are at work!!

W A S D for forward, backward, left and right. Space bar to jump, right mouse button or C to crouch. I don't bother using strafe, I have enough to remember with the other keys.

Everything else is default.....

one thing ive always wondered how does one set mouse1 to both fire weapon and open doors?

/bind mouse1 +fire; +activate??

anyone out there that has their mouse set up like that...let me know.

I find using WASD easier, since it has more buttons around it. When I tried using the arrows I never hit the button i wanted in time because of the huge space between the arrows and buttons around it
