Controls

[Taygre]

HI. I am an old super fighter. even I am not a pro player but I thought that my controls are better for the fight as the keys are very close to each other. It even supports 2 players.

Note: IT need to get used to

I personally am also using an unconventional control layout that I feel is much superior to the original. I have recommended it in this thread but will paste everything here for convenience.

► Show Spoiler

Up - W
Down/Crouch - S
Left - A
Right - D

I find not having the movement controls close to the other action controls gives you more space and feels less cramped thus being easier to get used to. So basically, not [Arrow Keys] + [N][M][,] like the default SF controls.

Strafe - Shift

I'd highly recommend you disable the "double press [Direction] to sprint" option. The reasoning for this has been provided in the previous post.

 Jump - Spacebar

It is imperative that you use a different key to execute a Jump than the one being used for moving up ladders or shifting the crosshair. Remember, you want control.

Attack - INS ("0")
Block + Aim - DEL (".")
Kick - PGDN ("3")

I initially used this setup because associating key size with action importance made it easier to learn what does what without looking at the keyboard. "The big button attacks, the small one next to it is more 'delicate' - it helps you attack more accurately. The one above that is also small and is a secondary attack action (kick)."

Melee - 1
Handgun - 2
Rifle - 3
Equipment - 4
Special - 5

A simple preference from playing FPS games. I used to have Primary at "1" and Melee at "3" at some point but I think that scheme got reset and I got used to this one.

Sheathe - Q
Interact/Pickup - F
Reload/Grab - R
Throw/Drop - G
Precise Aim - L. Ctrl
Change Camera - Tab

Using this setup I can keep all my fingers on all the important actions while having the entire selection of secondary actions available to me by moving a finger one or two keys over. It's not time consuming, it's easy to get used to, and most importantly it's convenient. The only trouble I'm having is getting my middle finger all the way over to the "5" key to use powerups, but I have powerups disabled on my server so I don't find this too troublesome.

Here's how my fingers lay on the keyboard using this setup, allowing for a very comfortable game.
Hope this helps.
