Have weapon keys binded around WASD keys OUT-OF-THE-BOX?

Actually it does matter, but only for people that don't change their bindings. If it's kept similar, they will be happy,

I'm sure they are a minority.

If anything, it only matters so as to show people who do use old, debateably out-dated control config sets, ways that people are doing it "these days", because many of those changes were made for good reasons. I seriously doubt, though, that they will take switchweapon command off the numbers. It just makes too much sense to have them up there as they are. Where they would go around your walk keys is totally dictated by preference, that that for most people is usually different, even more so then your walk keys.

How do you guys usually set your weapon bindings? Because i find the # keys take to long. Do all of you center them around your movement keys? I'm just trying to find something that might be easier to reach.

Because EVERYONE uses WASD, don't they? It's just not possible that someone might set up controls differently. :rolleyes:

Another stupid f*cking poll. What a shock.

Uh, I think everyone posting their keys is the point. That point being so many people use so many different configs, that it really doesn't matter what they provide out of the box.

Yeah, what s the point of this thread???? I actually don t care about all the different set up sent by the others... and i won t care about those that will be sent (wake up and save your time guys, I think that nobody really care) and I will not care of the standart set up put in the box since I will change it for sure to my actual settings.

Yeah, center around movement keys, and use extra mouse functions.

ESDF Move
RQAZGVT MWHEELUP MWHEELDOWN Weapons
MIDDLEMOUSE Xloc
WX Weapon Scroll

Just be thankful the the control config gui is nothing like BF2.

I don't care what is pre-set, as long as I can easily re-set, I'm fine.

WASDftw

anywho, since were on the subject of posting binds

q-flak
e-shock
r-rockets
f-lightning
z-trans
x-superwep
1-assault
3-bio
c-crouch
shift-use
g-toss weapon

edit: oh ya, middle mouse is shield gun (best gun in the game), mouse up is link, mouse down is mini.

now that people have mentioned alt as crouch tho, i might give that a shot... seems like it'd be really effective

The efficiency of having your hands in home typing position is ergonomically un-parralleled. The keyboard is designed with the average persons fingers reach in mind, and hence you make the largest amount of realistic keys immediately availible to you by doing so.

Even moving over one or two keys more to RDFG, or THFG then makes your tab and caps keys less then easily reachable, so moving for one more row of keys is purpose defeating.

If you like it, cool, use what you want, but the only good reason I've heard for doing otherwise (logically speaking), namely WASD is if you have an abnormally small hand and can't functionally reach certain keys or combinations there of from home position, like left ctrl/shift, especially with that pesky windows key down there.

I use the following setup for UT2004.

yghj = movement
space = jump
c = crouch
right alt = use
u = flak
i = shock
k = sniper
m = minigun
n = shield gun
b = bio
d = rocket
t = link
middle mouse = translocator
mouse wheel = change weapons
numpad enter = throw weapon
