Mouse Vs. Keyboard
Attention: I am buying a good mouse.
Reason: more precise, I love the scroll wheel as shoot, and most of the veteran players use mouse, and I like the presicion of the jumping and speed.
btw I will suck for the first little while until I regain my skill
Any recommendations for a good mouse?

Keyboard. I made a custom layout for my keys, and it works very well for me.

I control the tank by my thoughts. I think "left", and the tank drives left.

I believe someone else uses that, it's called MindControl or the "NES power glove" (yes, I know, blast said it)

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
I use keyboard, personally. it grew on me since i have a trackpad and not an actual mouse.
And now my layout is so awesome i can't live without it.
arrow keys to move
w = jump
a,d = shoot
s = drop flag.
Its amazing. try it.

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
I like my setup: Tab: jump, Q: fire, E: lock on, everything else is standard.
On my mouse, LMB: jump, scroll down: shoot, RMB:lock on, scroll up: zoom.

Keyboard, Apple mouses aren't amazing, or even double-button. Even when I replace it, the movement around isn't as controlled, I think.

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
I used to use keyboard under the configuration of
B=jump
X=Slowmo
Space=shoot
V=identify
C=bino
But now I use mouse and I like it a lot better
Configuration
B and right click=jump
scroll and space=shoot
rest the same

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
I like to use the mouse. You can control it exactly where you want it to go. With the keyboard, you have very limited control.
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and cafeteria food.
Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
i would say mouse is better, because the keyboards are so far apart that when i grabbed a flag i didn't want i had to let go of the enter/return button to hit the spacebar and get shot. so its mouse for me.

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
Zac is a GU player and would be using radar 90+% of the time and it would be all the way (max radar) the more you check radar the better you will become!

You can easily change your key mapping via Options in the BZF menui would say mouse is better, because the keyboards are so far apart that when i grabbed a flag i didn't want i had to let go of the enter/return button to hit the spacebar and get shot. so its mouse for me.

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
ya ya, the key to becoming a good player is the radar.
Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
i have been using the mouse for the last 10 weeks
Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
Really, you can get slow jumps with the KB without the 'slow keyboard motion' because when you press the up key (or whatever you use to move forwards) the tank accelerates to full speed almost instantly. I say almost because if you hit them at the same time, you can get slower jumps. I play with KB because I'm always turning in ways I don't want to with the mouse. whenever I shoot with the mouse, I always miss, because I can't hold it still enough.

I can get a positive score; I just choose not to.
Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
if you press "A" then your tank goes slow
Re:
The default identify button is "i", but personally i use right click more often. I have all my vital things on my mouse, but i play 2 handed cuz its easier . So give another vote for mouseA Vicious Muffin wrote:Mouse. Has everything i need, except for jumping. And what is the defalt "identify" button on the keyboard? Shift or control? When I accidentally hit one of the keys for keyboard movement, it looks really rocky. Like....squarish.

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
Used to play all the time with mouse, but since I came back to bzf earlier this year, I had to use keyboard due to playing on my laptop. Tried to play with the mouse again last night, but got totally disorientated - never again.
Best setup:
Q,W = shoot
Tab = Jump
E = Slow Mo
End = Restart, Identify
1,2,3,4,5 = Different radar zooms.
I play with full radar, and practically no mouse-box.
In my opinion, Keyboard is better then Mouse, as you have more control.

Re: Mouse Vs. Keyboard
Yeah, keyboard. No brainer. I used to use mouse, then I got a laptop, and wanted to try keyboard, and now I can't use mouse.
