We're PC gamers. I don't think everyone plays with a hoypad or default game controls. So when in FPS, what are your key strokes?

Mine:
Up - Walk up
Down - Walk down
Left - Strafe left
Right - Strafe right
< - Lean left
> - Lean right
Right big shift - jump
[ - Weapon up
] - Weapon down
# - throw grande
' - melee
; - reload
/ - crouch

Anyone else care to share theirs? :)

Used this or similar to this for Fear / BF2 and a slightly different config for GTA S:A.

Right - Strafe Right
Space - Jump

E - Use
R - Reload
F - Flash Light
; - Drop weapon
Enter - switch to last weapon

W = forward

D = step right
Q = lean left
E = lean right
R = reload
Space = jump
Shift = crouch
LMB = fire
RMB = scope/alt fire
mouse wheel = zoom/weapon select
F = interact with object
2 = weapon select up if im using wheel to zoom
3 = weapon select down " " " "

i hardly move my hand like that :D my hand will naturally rest on w, a, d, shift and space

No, but I'm 1.5x faster than you :p














Really, I had (Untill it broke about three weeks ago) a laptop, and having big hands and a small keyboard means the keys are a lot closer together than with a normal keyboard ;). + I'm a leftie.
 
I'm an arrows man because I use the mouse in my left hand. It gets a bit crowded down there, but I use all the buttons that I can possibly reach.
I think it's nicer too, as you can sort of 'rest' your fingers on the empty plastic area above them - if you're only pressing forward, or not pressing any of them. Whereas on WASD you seem to be left resting/hovering your fingers on/over the keys. I dunno, it's a small thing.

Have you got absolutely huge hands?
or a small keyboard?
directions keys are too far away for that to be a comfortable setup surely?
likewise Phnom_Penh


I use a basic WASD setup, and map whatever usefull functions like melee atack, prone etc to my mouse :)
prone spam in BF2 with thumb button :)
