Forums → Games → WASD vs Arrow Keys

Only WASD. If I can`t - arrow keys. Always by left hand. And I am right handed.

i always use wasd even in games like exit path im not left handed either i just seem to do better i guess i like to press all the keys with 1 hand.

I prefer wasd, that's not easy to play because i have a azerty keyboard.

Now in a games with a lot of controls wasd is a better option. In a game that has few controls arrow keys are better. It depends on the game. Personaly I like wasd better.

It depends because if the game has mouse involved then WASD but if no mouse involved then arrow keys.

i play with WASD and arrow keys why?
because i am not right handed or left handed LOL

So, you, massmurrder, is ambidextrous? Wow! I'm impressed!

I think WASD are better for 2 reasons:
(1) if you need to use the mouse in a game, its more comfortable to use the WASD because the arrow keys ar too close to the mouse and if you use arrow keys+mouse for a long time your hands start to hurt/
(2)if I need to use keys like f,b,m,t and other wuch are clse to the WASD keys u can raech them more kuicly and without leaving the movemnet keys [WASD in that case].

Since i've started to play ego-shooters i'm only using wasd. I think it's a customary thing and btw if you use wasd it's easier to reach the other keys.

I like the arrow keys because i am right handed, and also because i am alwys getting the WASD keys confused for some reason, and i mess them up. It doesnt matter if i have to use the mouse, because i can switch very quickly.

I think WASD because even though I'm right handed, my left can still move the keys. Also generally larger games (like shooters) because for one, the mouse is much more comfortable if it isn't right next to the mouse. Then there are the other buttons, such as reload switch weapons, and sprint. All of those are located around WASD. There is no real place for those keys near the arrow keys.

i almost always use arrow because there more comftorable

usually WASD, most of the time but there under certain cicumstanses i'll use the arrow keys

~manly man

90 percent of the time i use wasd keys because im very comfortable with it

Even though im a right handed i prefer the mouse with right and movements with left

I'm actually right handed, but I usually use the WASD keys. I originally started using them because they made games that incorporate the mouse and keyboard movement. Now that I'm used to them I always use them. They are especially convenient in games that use the mouse, keyboard movement, and the space-bar. (Mechanical Commando 2)
