Assignment of prone key ,,which one ???

[Bald-Eagle11]

Guys

Using WSAD as your direction keys which key would you assign to prone ?

The Z key seems a little awkward to me if you are covering the WSAD . At the moemnt I have assigned it to the left shift , now you say what about sprinting but i have been double tapping the W key for over a year now .

Am i at a distinct disadavantage ?

my prone is on C, and my crouch is on left alt.

I've been thinking of swapping my prone (z) and crouch (ctrl) keys to help break my insta-prone habit. I'm used to proning with z and I don't find it difficult, although left control is a bit of a stretch for crouch, so I've also thought about making left shift crouch, but I always sprint with shift instead of double tap.

So I'll probably just leave things the way they are. :)

not hard to move my finger down one key.

EDIT: left control is a stretch? where the hell do you keep your pinky?

Not left control ,, left shift . My little pinkie is covering it all the time .

I also find crouch on left ctrl is annoying. whenever I move my pinky down to press it, my ring finger goes down 1 key, too (which isn't good, cause that's the one that's on A). my pinky always sits on shift

i was talking to the guy above me, but i don't see how it is hard to move a finger over or up/down a key.

right ctrl - prone
one next to it - crouch
right shift- jump
\ - sprint
enter- enter vehicle
arrow keys- direction keys

i still use Z. its what ive been using for all my games that involve proning so im pretty use to it right now. heck using WSAD was totally new when i first started playing first person shooters since i was so use to hte arrow keys/console game controllers. if u can find watever key without thinking/looking at the keyboard, then u should be fine.

So why didn't you remap the WASD with the arrow keys? I can't see myself playing with WASD ever.

Re: Assignment of prone key ,,which one ???

well at that time, i didnt know how to remap keys and that was YEARS ago when i was playing like ... Jedi Knight (the wicked old one) and some other star wars game like that...Dark something. anways the WSAD is alot better than the arrows cuz its easier to get to other keys like G (to drop kits) and it puts ur hands on the keys so u dont have ot move it as much
