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

arrow keys that was the thing 5 years ago so i got used to it

I like WASD better because I'm a downright ganer and it's usually the left hand who's in charge of controls. Although it is the thumb that's used on a console controller I guess I'm used to controlling with the left and mashing buttons with the right ^^.

I like WASD because I am ambidextroius and also maybe you can use arrow keys to look around in FPS games.

WASD!!!! My hands are more fit fore that kind of position, especially if the game only makes you use the WASD in the keyboard, since, I prefer my right hand on the mouse(even if I'm not using it!)

I prefer the arrow keys, just the way I operate I guess.

The arrow keys! Easy access, less buttons you cant accidentally hit.

Yea, thats why I prefer them, whenever I play arrow game keys, I always press the wrong button and I go, my keyboard is banjaxed!

WASD FTW! I just like how it feels better than the arrow keys.

WASD for sure!Its easyeir to use other key like numpand keys q,e etc.

Personally I enjoy WASD.

Arrow keys for me, Always used laptops and 'mouse' is in the middle, and I'm left handed so I use mouse with left hand, so it has to be arrow keys, would prefer WASD but you get used to it.

Arrow keys all the way.

I cant play most games because I play on a laptop...I prefer WSAD because Im a lefty, but games today require all kinds of buttons with mouse involved. Yes, Im too lazy to buy a mouse.

WASD Counter-Strike starters prefer this

There shouldn't be a standard at all, because some games (Thing Thing series) are easier to maneuver the basic controls using the W-A-S-D format. I perfer using the W-A-S-D format because i'm left handed, therefore my opinion is biased. 'Nuff said...
