also, btw i think we have a wierd bunch here at wc3campaigns because yesterday i asked at a gaming forum, got 5 replies and they all said wsad :gsmile:


well, those people aren't going to be the ones playing fps mod, are they? look at the polls. arrows have popularity. we must have old-school fps gamers here since a little over half of us say we want arrows :gsmile:

to whom is that directed... if it is me, i think you are mistaken. the majority says arrows.

i don't see why people always try to say wasd makes people better players. the people who are better players are the ones who:
-play all the time
-know their control scheme better than the back of thier hand
-have aiming perfected

control scheme has nothing to do with one's ability to open a can of whoopass. the thing that determines that is the player's skill

I censored those Bozo, fyi. Getting around the censors may seem cool, but there ARE a lot of young ppl around here that shouldn't see it. Not my opinion, just Teh Rulez.

Crouch is much better at the left CTRL spot because of the fact that you can crouch jump. Seriously how could you crouch jump using just your thumb?

ya, i was just saying we have a wierd group here. i used to use arrow keys, i switched over to wsad because it was more comfortable, i dont think it made me much better, if at all, but it's comfortable.

Well, i think we should just use both unless there is an easy way to do it so that people can use their own controls, but i still prefer wasd, becuz i find it more confortable, but i think we should really try to make a way so people can do their own controls, becuz i prefer to "C" for crouch, space bar for jump, and shift for run/walk if we are gonna have that (Run walk is very useful when rounding a corner, so u can sorta peek. Also will we have lean to the side cuz if anyone has played Army Ops (A really great completely free FPS made by the us army, i would suggest getting it if u like Rogue Spear, but not quite as stealth based, more like large squad based online fun, its really great, lots of cool features like going prone [thats not to common yet in FPS's], leaning to the side for shooting while only revealing a little bit of ur body, and u can lean while crouching and while prone, and when prone u amry crall and when u "lean" u roll to the side, very usefull, i rolled down an entire hill once to avoid gettin shot to pieces. anyways, they have a very nice control scheme and alot of nice, original ideas, like report position, tells people where u are in a map [pre-defined locations, like central peak, noth valley, things like that] and it has hand signals, plenty of pre-made messages that are voice acted and special squad leader only things, like an extra set of voice messages, binoculars, and having a rank insignia that floats over yer head, and evreyone can use hand signals, and u can do parachute missions where u can jack up ur paradrop and fall to ur death, and lots over kool stuff, i no i just sounded like i was advertising for them, but i think u should seriously try the game and use their controls, they are very good and the game overall is a more realistic counter terroris type game [US army vs Terrorists with AK's] and one other thing, u can go prone with the SAW machine gun and stick out ur bipod, that kicks ***!)

I did play that game, but I think UT 2003 is better only IMO though.

Also, if anyone complains or yells at sumone else that prefers using different controls, they will be warned from now on...

i don't mind people saying their opinion, but when they start acting like their way is the "1337" way and the other way is the "sux0rz" way, then i simply do it back to them. it is called the golden rule, and it would be absolutely beautiful if everyone actually tried it once in a while.

I usually only read these forums.. but this "poll" is something I have to put my 5 cents into.
I used to use arrow keys, and playing guitar I know about moving fingers in awkward positions but I have to say that using arrow keys is pretty damn uncomfortable.
I started using WASD because I was tired of changing the default controls at public places to arrow keys, and since I started using WASD I havent played with arrow keys simply because of how uncomfortable it is to play using arrows.
As for the mod, I would suggest including both because frankly alot of people prefer arrows.. and I personally won't use arrows unless my life depended on it.
This argument is a bit childish, and it is all a matter of preference.. but I have to say that for me, WASD is alot more comfortable.

I think havin both or editable controls is the best, cuz if we choose one or the other, people are not gonna be happy...

Dead-Inside CS configuration on controls:

Movement: Arrow Keys (Leftarrow, Rightarrow, Uparrow and Downarrow)
Fire 1: Left mouse button
Fire 2 (Secondary): Side-buttons (Both, it's a little slow, not good for knifing)
Jump: Right mouse button
Crouch: Ctrl
Walk: Shift
Change weapons: Mouse Wheel

used to use the arrow keys.... once i refined my skills i found WSAD keys to be much more efficient... it helped a lot.. it gets some getting used to if u are used to the arrow keys method sometimes though
