Question for you mwheel jumpers: which finger are you using to mwheel? If it's the same one as your primary attack (firing finger) how do you jump and fire at the same time? o_O

Primary attack...therefore, I don't do both at the same time. Since bhopping involves the back and forth movement of the mouse...doing both at the same time is not conducive to being accurate when playing D. I have my space bar bound to +jump...for those type of movements when necessary while firing.

I'm not good enough at it yet to do what tiger does...look below. Surprised

That sounds like a painful setup to use, Ghost. Rolling Eyes

You might be too used to your settomgs already, though, so I'm not sure if my advice would be any good. I would recommend using the default settings. You can switch to default settings by clicking the options button of the main menu. Click on the tab that says keyboard. On the screen there's a button that says "Use Defaults"

The basics of this setup is that it uses the keys "W,A,S,D" to move forward, left, back, and right. It uses space bar to jump, and your thumb should always be on this key. All of your mouse settings are used to look around.

Yeah like Apple said ghost u should just use the default setup...of course it'd take a lil time to get used to, but it'll be alot easier on you than the setup you have. Then if ya wanna duck and stuff at the same time ur gonna shoot or jump or whatever, then bind "duck" to ur shift key. Thats been my setup and how i've been doin it for like 3-4 yrs.

Ctrl isn't that different from shift, though.

Maybe for your small girly hands. I can't stand having my pinky on shift being that close to my ring finger on A.

and i bet your pinky prolly hurts after your done playin tfc for awhile...for it to be on shift make perfect sense for the way the hand was developed, but to have ur pinky on ctrl key...that's just insane and annoying.

I do the same as Dark and it only hurts if I've been playing all day.

Ghost ... go back to default setup ... theres a reason why it was made that way.

I personally use my index finger to bhop with my mwheel. The key to shooting and firing at the same time is to shoot at the apex of your jump then get your finger back to spamming the mwheel. Fairly easy, but there are far more easy / accurate ways to do it.
