Forums → The Tavern → WASD .vs. Arrow Keys!

I'd pick the WASD keys, the layout grew on me pretty well

Arrows because im a righty and it feels more natural to use the arrows.

WSAD because its easier to shoot and move at the same time.

You know, this is an amazingly good question, and I fancy writing a question that I know full well, noone will ever read. If it's a game where I'm using the mouse to shoot as well, I will opt for WASD but if I'm using other keys, eg. space, I would definitely opt for the arrow keys. Thank you for allowing me to perform this rant.

For me it would probble be arrow keys because it easrer for me lol so yea .

arrow keys for sure

mainly because I am on a laptop though... otherwise it would be wasd

arrow keys

I go both ways, but im used to the arrows, but then again....

i like the arrows more. for these reasons

1. it is far away from other keys that are quite unfortunate when pressed, like caps

2. i often scroll down a page with the arrows instead of the sidebar or mouse roller thing.seems alot easier to me.

3. whenever i use wasd, i ALWAYS ( /exaggeration) manage to srew it up, like ill be pressing f instead of d or vice versa. it is near impossible to do this with the arrows. as a result of this mismatch, i am often hurt or lose the level while playing a game.

Well i like to use the arrow keys instead of the mouse to scrowl dowm

I don't have problems with WASD but unless nessesary I perfer to use the Arrow keys, even when I use them with a left hand(I just move the keyboard left)

WSAD Only through Counter Strike: Source for a year though

It depends on the game that i'm palying but mostly the main keyboard setup is with WASD keys..

WASD. Because i can use the mouse and shift/control/space
