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

WASD has always been the best, i used to use arrow keys, but that makes multitasking with your mouse quite hard.

i use both of them

arrow keys ftw

I use DAWS.

I use both of them

I say it depends on the type of game

I play 2Moons/Dekaron which uses WASD to move and Arrow keys to move the camera so im used to the WASD

prefer both depending if there are any other keys, for example if you use Space I prefer the arrows, if you use Ctrl and Shift I prefer WASD

WASD is natural for a FPS gamer like me - I'm so used to it that being forced to use the arrow keys for anything other then typing documents is just weird - really, it's a little odd, but I just can't play games with the arrow keys, they're too awkward for me.

However, I can understand that WASD can be uncomfortable to people who haven't used it before and let me tell you - using those keys is like most good things in life. An acquired taste.

Depends, sometimes I enjoy WASD when the game is more of a game where you need to click alot of buttons, and I use the arrow keys for casual gaming.

WASD is like way more awesome than those pointy shits that gan go **** them selfs

I prefer the WASD when There is a mouse function involved, like aiming, otherwise I like the arrow keys.

WASD all the time. If i use the arrows im too close to the mouse, and feel kinda cramped. And my keyboard has crappy arrow keys there really small.

I think left-handed people prefer WASD controls like me. WASD work best with 1st person shooter games in my opinion.
