To people who say, "WASD 'cuz steam games"

Go to options and change the controls. Same thing with minecraft, and anything else.

I'm left handed, and I use my left to aim. My mousepad it towards the center of my laptop, so using the arrows is not awkward. In fact, WASD is closer to the mousepad than the arrows. It's also better because of all the arrows around it. CTRL, ?, SHIFT, INS, and 1, just to name a few. In TF2, my last weapon switch is /. When the round starts, I go primary and melee. When I need to switch, just press it.

I'm a lefty but I use WASD because I want to, screw ergonomics. :3

I use my right hand for the mouse, however.

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

I use arrow keys ALL THE TIME! I'm right-handed, so it's more comfortable for me that way.  tongue

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

WASD all the time. I only used the arrows when I was little lol, and I always had a hard time changing weapons and the such.

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

My feelings on PC vs console FPS's is odd. I prefer moving with a control stick, but a mouse has more range than an analog stick, making it better for aiming.

Which is why Wii's my favorite platform for FPS's. You can move with the numchuck and aim with the Wii remote.

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

WASD, it's hard for me to control the mouse and use the arrow keys at the same time. Plus, it's probably minecraft that got me semi used to it.  tongue

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

It's harder using the mouse and the arrow keys at the same time.

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

There's a reasonable distance from the WASD keys from the mouse so that's why I like them.

I think this is still relevent, and it wasn't some stupid blockspam.

Yeah, I used to prefer the arrow keys, but generally wasd is what I use now, especially if I'm using the mouse too such as in Minecraft. I have to make a 3D level with controllable character the other day for my university course and the lecturer wouldn't let us use wasd! Part of the spec was to use the arrows. Then again, there wasn't a mouse-controlled camera or anything, so it wasn't too bad  tongue

I really like your signatures. They are always funny.

Re: Wasd Vs. Arrow Keys

Complete WASD, so that I can use the mouse (I'm right-handed) and the arrow keys are a fair distance off from any of the other keys on the keyboard.
