Haha, yes. I used ctrl next to arrows back in my newbie days for weapon switching. That was pretty much all my controls back then. Arrow keys for movement, ctrl for weapon switching, mouse1 fire, mouse2 jump.
oh man. my newbie days were arrow keys only plus enter for shoot etc.
then once i found out about +mlook (which was seriously about 6 months in), i used whatever the defaults were when you had that enabled. i think mouse2 was +forward, the "<" and ">" keys were for strafing and "/" was +back. shift was jump i think. maybe spacebar.
WASD was fucking nuts for me. i felt so incredibly sophisticated once i started using it. i'm pretty sure the person who introduced me said "Power3D uses this. all the pros do" or something like that.
ahhh... the good old days =(
edit: i'm thinkin about going back to that for nostalgia's sake. WHO'S WITH ME?! (going back to their original setups)
