Your Controls?

[JamesU2002]

Just got RO today and so far I'm quite impressed.

However, I feel the controls feel slightly unnatural and not very intuitive in comparison to other WW2 or FPS Games.

Just wondered how you have set yours up, might help me get the best of the game?

Maybe a screenshot would help.

Thanks

no screenie, but I despise WASD, and changed the whole thing. I move using the arrow keys, and have everything mapped around them for ease of reach and speed.

The changes I can think of right now are:

Ctrl for crouch
x for prone
right mouse for iron sights
middle mouse for alternate fire
m for map

 

[Gwart]

Mainly assigning stuff to my mouse buttons

left button-left lean

Mouse 1- Feur!!11

Middle mouse- Bayonet/melee/alt fire

Mouse 2- Iron sights

Right button- Right lean

 

[Dheepan]

= is set to barrel change
f is prone
x is attach bayo

think that's all I changed.

 

[Dav1d]

ive got big hands (middle arrow key to the left alt key ) and like Heinz i use the arrow keys and the keys around it.

rmb = iron sights
end = rest/deploy
[ or ] = lean
/ = prone
ctrl = crouch
b = barrel channge
r = reload
# = firemode

Volod's seems closest to the kinds of DOD:S and COD's of this world.

But Thanks guys keep them coming.

I normally try to keep the controls as consistent as possible among the fps games I play. Of course, every game has its own unique commands, but, for example, I always have primary fire set to left-mouse, alt-fire to space and jump to right mouse.

In other words, go with what you are used to -- if you find that your setup in other fps games is more natural, then change the controls to mimic that.

I also use the scroll wheel for weapon selection/ironsights (which is default). Since I have a mouse with extra buttons, I use those buttons for voip and drop weapon.

Pretty much everything else on my config is default, except that I've changed some of the tank-chat commands on the numpad.

 

[BASE]

I use the NOSTROMO N-52 (full programmable) left and the Logitech MX 1000 on the right hand side.
Since the MX 1000 has enough buttons I also layed the functions for "Sprint", "Crouch", "Fire mode", "Lean left" and "Lean right" on it.

 

[[tR]Mad Mac]

wasd movement

q/e to lean

left control for crouch

z for prone

f for open/use

, key for give ammo/change barrel

b for bayonet

left mouse = fire
right mouse = iron sights
middle mouse = alt fire/melee

the side buttons on my mouse I use for VOIP

That's crazy. I knew a guy whole played Medal of Honor like that and it blew my mind.

There are no keys around the arrow kerys so I can't imagine how you have better reach.....

 

[Jaegermeister]

My key config = very unsual

left mouse = fire
right mouse = forward
mouse wheel = change weapons
m = backwards operated by pinky finger
, = strafe left operated by ring finger
. = strafe right operated by middle finger
/ = jump operated by index finger
n = iron sight pinky finger jumps to this key
k = lean left ring finger jumps to this key
l = lean right middle finger jumps to this key
j = reload pinky finger jumps to this key
space = use pinky finger jumps to this key
' = crouch index finger jumps to this key
; = prone index finger jumps to this key
right ctrl = alt fire left thumb jumps to this key
h = switch fire mode pinky jumps to this key
g = barrel change pinky jumps to this key
b = bayo attach pinky jumps to this key

I cut my teeth on Medal of Honor many moons ago and always reconfigure to match something like that.

WASD ~ movement
QE ~ leaning
XC ~ prone, crouch
YT ~ say, team say
M ~ map
FR ~ use, reload

But for RO I have added a few more:

numpad (minus) Team Channel
numpad (numlock) Public Channel
numpad (slash) Local Channel (doesn't work very well)
numpad (asterisk) Map vote

and my favourite: F5

ATTACK!

 

[Sclass12]

Changes I made off the top of my head:

Ctrl for crouch
Z for prone
Alt for alternate fire
Right mouse button for iron sights
Y for all chat, T for team chat

 

[MÆST]

I'm an arrow man with a multi-button MX500 mouse. Thumb buttons on the mouse for iron sights and sprint. I use nearby keys such as right ctrl, shift, del, end, page down, and the numpad for gameplay controls. I use letters as various voice commands. b back, f forward, g go go go, t thanks etc.

 

[Sabot]

The best thing to do would be to get used to the controlled yourself, that way you would get a better feel of your own gameplay.

That's what I did and it helped me a lot being a bit of a noob, to start off with

I kept most things default.

 

[Leo]

I have the logitech MX500 myself, so i use the thumb keys as use and deploy/bayo

in terms of keyboard functions, i use the following (I'm a WASD fan myself)

wasd = movement
q/e = lean
f = prone
c = IS
space = toggle crouch
left alt = jump
left shift = sprint
tab = map
z = throw weapon
x = change firemode
b = change barrel
v = voice menu
left ctrl = mic activation
r = reload

i find that works quite well...

you need the mouse with the extra keys to pull this off tho..

 

[karhuwaari]

wasd = movement
left mouse = shoot
middle mouse = Ironsights
right mouse = melee attack
ctrl = crouch
z = prone
shift = sprint
c = attach bayo
f = use
b = barrel change
g = drop weapon
q and e = lean left and right
x = change fire mode

thats pretty much it, everything is within reach

 

[REZ]

Like Heinz, I cant stand WASD. I've remapped the entire thing. I use arrow keys for movement, and everything else is right around the arrow keys, so I never have to look down. I dont use lean at all.

I set any and all FPS games to the same exact configuration.



damn... I have a small headache after reading Jaegermeisters setup.. LOL!

 

[=GG= Mr Moe]

I had gotten used to playing CODUO multiplayer online, so I try to set up all my games as close to that as possible. and then with the default keyboard available in Powerpoint form, I got carried away with it and made a handy reference sheet
