Playstyle?

[Zzang]

What controls do you use to play Daoc?
I have looked at quite many movies with ppl using keyboard to pan/turn, an i myself cant understand how they can play that way.

Anyway, i use the wasd button for movement, strafe

also, i got face,stick binded on f,v nearest target (blame prenerf zerk) E,
reset view, last attacker, sit, jump in order < z x c v
sprint on space, i use keyboard to press all buttons from 1-5 for styles, spells etc, 6-7 i press with mous manually (usually i have purge, ip there. then 8-0 i have binded on 3 different mousebuttons.

I also always have my hand on the mouse, with rightbtn binded to mouseview, so if i need to turn/pan i hold in rightbtn. this makes targeting much easier imo

So, now i want to know what other ppl play with. yw

Edit; i have some qbind too for using ml stuff etc. and assist

 

[Dorin]

f - nearest target
g - stick
h - face
v - last attacker
space - jump (rox!)
ctrl - run

wasd for movement, q-e for strafe

paning for me is 0 (dunno what button on english keyboards its above tab oO) + mouse + mouse3 for zooming.

 

[Flimgoblin]

esdf for movement
q for reply
t stick
space is face
\ is sprint (next to z on my kb)
v is combat mode
b is next target

mouse in right hand, right button is mouse movement, middle button free look (so hold down right+middle to pan around whilst movingin the same dir)

shift-q is single target heal (so I QQ at people to heal them.... heh)

 

[Clipse]

okay

A wizards guide :

Use Keyboard to Pan and strafe, mouse buttons to move forward n back. Right hand always on mouse, and when roaming, use right thumb on "m". index finger on VP (9) rdy. Then spam F4 (face) and DD (5).

Use Control for cursor, once the fight Starts ofc.

 

[Veno]

wasd for movement/strafe
r-stick
f-face
c-sit
x-nothing
z-jump
q-nearest enemy
ctrl for free camera(panning)
mouse 3(middle) for camera control/direction
mouse 4-reset view

1-5 with left hand rest with mouse.

and some more qbind thats I can't remember....

gone throw in something on Q and E, to eaze the shift using. atm only have em for turning left and right which I do with the mouse anyways..

 

[[NO]Subedai]

ok what i use is prolly not the best but old habits hard to break

arrow keys i use for movement, sprint is binded to right ctrl, 1 on numbad is nearest target and 0 on numpad is stick. i use 1-5 on keybaord for most my styles, and i tend to use E R T for qbind'ing stuff like grapple and bodygaurd.

i target stuff with my mouse and pan most of the time.

 

[Amadon]

well we are talking about Daoc not CS

old habbits are hard to stop with

 

[Elnova]

a;ways have mouselook on (so always turning with mouse pretty much)
a,w,s,d - move forward back turn left turn right
q,e strafe left and right
c , sprint. v, sit
spacbar - face, ctrl - stick
j - centre view
f - nearest target
right click - pointer toggle, ( hold right lcik target enemy, let go, back to mouse look)
left click - target
wheel click - camera toggle, ( hold down and move mouse to pan camera, rool mouse forward and backwards to zoom in and out, let go to take off camera toggle)
z - use 1
x -use 2
all hot bar 1 - 0 keyboard, targeting with mouse

 

[Comos]

old habbits are hard to stop with

givf AK47 to wizzies imo

as for my keyconfig, I really should bind a 'target nearest NMY' and a 'face' to my keys, luckily I have the fast-reaction-clickspeed reflexes still from the CS days

 

[gia]

mouselook always on

thumb button on mouse to make mouse arrow pop out for selecting and the other button is to reset camera

key next to 1 - panning
wasd - movement (but w is autorun and right mouse btn is forward)
q - nearest enemy
e - attack mode
r - 2h (so i can quickly do R+4 which is annihilation ftw )
space - stick (alt is face, I invert these keys when I play casting or melee classes)

Then lots of other keys, I have all the Fx keys qbinded to something so its like having 2 quickbars. I usually press 1-5 manually and rest with mouse, its faster for me to do shift2-2 or shift3-3 than to press 6 or 7. I keep timered abilities on 6-10 so I can see the if the timer is back up.
