The best controls that I have found are: M for fire, N for switch, B for run, and space for jump. You use your index finger for fire, middle finger for switch, ring finger on run, and your pinky and/or thumb for jump. If anyone knows any better controls then that then TELL ME!! Although I doubt there are any better controls on the keyboard.

I use the default controls, except that the other button for jump is "Z." They're good enough for me..;p

default..are the best controls for me

Left: Left arrow key
Right: Right arrow key
Down: Down arrow key
Up: Shift
Jump: Up arrow key
Shoot: Ctrl
Run: Left alt
Change weapon: Z

Up Arrow = Look Up
Down Arrow = Crouch
Left Arrow = Walk Left
Right Arrow = Walk Right
Left Ctrl/Right Ctrl (I mainly use Right Ctrl) = Jump
Enter = Cycle Weapons
Shift = Hold to Run
Space = Fire

Default controls.

I use my right hand for movement and my left hand for changing weapons and shooting. I use caps lock to run.

Left hand:
Fingers on shift (run) ctrl (jump) and space (shoot)
Right hand:
Fingers on arrow keys (move) and used to press 1-9 (weapon change) and t (chat)

Ditto.

Arrows: Move
RightCtrl: Jump
RightAlt: Shoot
RightShift: Run
Enter: Do that weapon changing thing that never seems to work when you're frozen and you really need it.

Ctrl as Jump
Alt as Fire
Enter as Weap Switch
Shift as Run

I use the default keys, basicly. (Space to shoot, arrow keys to move, ctrl to jump, shift to run) I sometimes put caps on to run also.

I use 1-9 to change weapons, much faster than enter ;P

Default.

Same !!, Exept.. i hold down shift all the time ;p

Default, except for that I use right-alt to jump. Since it's closer to the space bar

You all should really try my controls because with them your hand isnt stretched across a few keys, and they are alot easier to use when you get used to them. I just really hate the default controls and I use space, B, N, M and arrows for just about every game I play. These controls are also alot more comfortable for your hands when you play for a long time. Does anyone know if theres a way to change my user name? I wanted to change it to the one I use when I play JJ2

Default.

I personally use the JJ1 default controls.

Alt - Jump
Space - Shoot
Ctrl - Switch guns
Shift - Run

they are just so easy to use.

Up, down, left, right arrows - Up, croach, left, right
Spacebar - shoot
Alt right - jump
Shift - run
Enter - change weapon

You'd have to make a new account, but then an angry admin might bite you.

Arrows to move, control to jump, space to fire, shift to run, enter to cycle thru weapons.

I'm a Defaulter too.
Radium: The switch weapons key won't work if you're frozen, but the numbers will.

Shamefully, the default.

How can you people use those default controls?!?!?! They are the worst controls possible, you should at least TRY the ones that I said.

Same.

My hands are way too big for those controls, adam.

ALT - Jump
CTRL - Shoot
SHIFT - Run
ENTER - Change weapons


In windowed mode, I use SPACE to jump because ALT in windowed things is evil. However, pressing ALT in windowed mode lets you do self lag.

Always default. Never anything else. And same as KRSplat...hands are too big for that control setup you use Adam.

Don't you see who actually uses these controls ?

Why should I use new controls? I'm used to the one I'm using, a new would ust confuse me.

Ah, I like my controlls just how they are, and I have no discomfort with them.

They are kind of like the WASD controlls of 3D shooters in a way, because the keys I use are around that area.

Arrow keys are all at their default values, of course.

Shift=Run
Z=Shoot
X=Jump
C=Change weapon

It works well for me, because they are all in a row, without my hand being in an awkward position, however I'd have to change the keys if I was to have someone else at the keyboard with me on multiplayer. It is only set up for one person at the keyboard.

Oh yeah, and if I don't know I am in chat mode, and try to jump, I may end up typing XXX by mistake

Silly question, but what are the default controls?

F:Fire
D:Jump
S:Run
A:Change

In all my games, I change the controls to ASDF (and if I need more buttons, QWER, and ,./ for changing camara veiws)

I used to use a MICROSOFT sidewinder gampad, but when I upgraded to MICROSOFT Windows XP, it didn't work and had no patches.
Wee fun.

Yeah. I believe videogames rub microsoft the wrong way. :P

They are going to support them better in the next Windows. Game friendly, this next one will be.

well, this might seem odd but:

up: up arrow
dwn: down arrow
left: left arrow
right: right arrow
fire: left ctrl
select: enter
jump: shift
run: x


for some odd reason i never got used to the default controls. it just felt akward to me, maybe it's the wave (split) keyboard i am forced to use, cause my dad has carpal tunnel syndrome.

Right hand:

Up: Up Key
Down: Down key
Left: Left key
Right: Right key

Left hand:

Shoot: Enter
Jump: Shift
Run: Ctrl (I've always Caps-Lock on, so I never use this)
Switch Weapons: Backs(lash/pace) and numbers.

Left Hand
Up: E
Down: D
Left: S
Right: F

Right Hand
Switch Weapon: H or Y (my finger hits either one of the two so I just put them both on the controls)
Shoot: U
Run: I
Jump: O

I used to use the usual WASD with:
V as weapon switch
B as shoot
N as run
M as jump
Problem with that was keyjamming on my current keyboard, so i tried different combinations and found my current one to be the most anti-keyjamming there is

Oh, and dont think default keys are weird, I've actually seen people play with them and do fine, it still scares me though

I use the default controls, and my left hand is on the right control and right shift. I don't get how people can go to the left side control and shift. Seems weird to me =P

Actually, the only thing I change is that switch weapons is /. Enter is too far away and awkward.

arrows=move/look
fire=shift
jump=ctrl
select=enter

And run?

run=?

Yeah you know, what shift usually is.
