Just curious. Mine is very altered from the defaults.e/s/d/f = forward/L.strafe/back/R.strafe. I like having my fingers on home-row (i work in data entry and type a shitload, feels very natural for me.)a = duckw = last weapon usedq = flashlightv = usectrl = walkweapons on extra mouse buttons and numbers.I think that’s pretty much it, the rest are defaults. Just wondering if anyone has some really speed-friendly configs, I really like mine. ---

I think I’m the only one who uses defaults… I dunno, I just like being able to use the same settings on any computer I go to. I used to use a high sensitivity (~7 I believe), but I moved down to the default (3) over time, which helps with accuracy, even if at the cost of not being able to turn around REALLY quickly.Of course, that’s not as weird as one of my friends, who used the arrow keys playing FPSs. I kept trying to convince him that he kept having to reach really far to hit basic keys (like reload, which I think was set to PgDn or something). ---

If you look, WSAD and EDSF arent alighned perfectly like the arrow keys are. Thats why lots of people prefer the arrow keys.I know my friend shits himself when games dont let him use his arrow keys. ---
