W,A,S,D;,8,2,4,6 or Arrows?

Simple threado you use W,A,S,D; 8,2,4,6 or the arrows?What do you find more "useable"
I use the arrows, thanks to MOHAA and BF42. I do find Q to be more easy, since the mouse sort of cramps my wrist, so I usally move my keyboard, but arrows are more easyier in my opion.

Arrows for left handers....But if your a right hander and you use the arrow keys theres definately something wrong with you...

I've used arrows since I was 15... until this year, when I started using WASD thanks to a couple of RPGs I played. Seems a lot easier come to think of it.

the WASD gives you access to the spacebar, shift, ctrl, tab, and basically any other keys you may need.......


teh arrows suck cuz they dont give you that access

I've always used WASD, because it means I can reach all the keys I need without having to overwork myself.

I use a weird setup:
Mouse:
Right Mouse Button = Run/Forward
Left Mouse Button = Fire
Scroll Wheel = Zoom/Alt Fire

Keyboard:
A = Jump
Left Shift = Left Strafe
X= Right Strafe
Space Bar = Backup
Q = Next Weapon
ALT = Reload

and game specific added configs.

WASD, more keys close around to press. Being left handed it's also more comfortable to operated on the left side of your computer and keyboard. I used to go for arrow keys until a year (or two?) ago though.
