Getting comfortable with SHIFT and CTRL in games?
Getting comfortable with SHIFT and CTRL in games?
Hey there, jokes about you! Those who switch the shift key often find TF2 fun—just don’t expect it to be a breeze every time. You can usually adjust how the keys work to suit your needs.
I focused really hard. With practice, your keyboard skills will improve slightly. I generally avoid changing keys much, since many games reuse the same ones. This means I spend a lot of time learning each game’s hotkeys, especially when they’re fixed and don’t let me adjust them. Usually I use CTRL or X for crouch. Some games have a prone position and a return-to-standing button, which is why I stick with X. I tend to use C Prone and X for standing.
I spent the most time using C for sneaking, but later I needed that shortcut for other tasks, so I switched to Ctrl for sneaking. On PC, you can usually customize keybindings to suit your needs. I know someone who plays with IJKL instead of WASD/ZQSD, and others prefer ESDF because it adds a row of keys to the left or keeps their index finger on the F key for better control.
