People got problems with moving their keyboard? Or you dont have space on your desk too move on? :P
 
I used to use arrows, but I switched to WASD as its more natural (depending on where your keyboard is compared to your mouse). I also have a run button on my mouse, so I can reach other keys :D

i use arrow keys because i find that wsda has too many keys around them, so if i do a dodgejump i sometimes change weapon at the same time :(. I also hate using space to jump, and if i use shift i feel its too far away for my pinky to stretch to control to crouch.
deducted from that statement your fingers must be at least 3 cm in diameter and only 5 cm long :P
 
Arrow keys for UT, in most games I just use whatever the default controls are.
 
arrow keys

Up=MoveForward
Down=MoveBackward
NumPad0=StrafeRight
Ctrl=StrafeLeft
MouseWheelDown=Jump
MouseWheelUp=Jump

a bit confuse i know but i cant play with WASD :(
 
i use wasd, ofcourse i get rid of sticky keys .......only thing that disturbs me is the caps button

:lol:
and which finger do u use for which key? o_O id understand it if u had ezxc, with w...

W=forward
Z=left strafe
X=backward
C=right strafe
S=crouch

Old habits die hard. That key conf is from the game Terra Nova where you couldn't assign your own keys at all and that was the first FPS I ever played thus the conf has followed me throughout the years :D It's a bit straining to the arm but I've gotten used to it..

ok but i meant which finger, usually one uses the middle finger for forward, with your configuration id have to use the ring finger for w else id have a seizure within 5 minutes.
 
I use arrows. Only for games wich require lots of shortcuts i use WASD. (ie. Splinter Cell)

Yeah I use mid finger for forward too.. bit a of a reach but I'm used to it now.
