Instead of typing out all of my Key bindings, take a look at the included picture.
Does anyone here NOT use WASD for movement_

Indirect binding, XBox360 Joypad with XPadder.exe

WASD is stupid, I use ESDF:
- More keys around to bind stuff to
- Physical "bump" on F
- Less stress for the spacebar, pressing it in the middle is safer than on the left side ;-)

Me.

Back in the old days of games they defaulted to the arrow keys or numpad and ever since Wolfenstien and Doom I've just stuck to that format.

I'm right handed, but I don't have any difficulty using either hand for writing or mice, it really just depends on how I feel, or the space around my computer.  I have done it for so long that I have about the same amount of control, and using either hand I can draw a fairly strait line freehand in photoshop with either hand driving a mouse.  Its amazing what you can train yourself to do if you take the time to do it.

So you play with 360 controller exclusively or its there just for messing around_

BLASPHEMY!!

[Zdragow]

I couldn't see myself using anything but the WASD setup. Maybe ESDF, but anything else would be waaaaaay too foreign for me.

Not sure how you guys are able to play like that. Is it just because that's how you learned to control_

I use a gaming keyboard. Steelseries ZBoard. Best gaming keyboard ever! And the Microsoft 5 button Intellimouse!

try mastering quake 2 on ps1 with lookup/down being l1/r1

[Infyrno]

No. Wasd masterrace

[I2DI]

LOLz. I use WASD binds even when i'm trying to play some games on emulator without a gamepad. It's usually WASD for movement + IJKL for other stuff. E is l1 and U is r1. Year, i'm a strange man.

[Ker4u]

Arrow keys here, order is messed up  but basically  i don't use any standard keys and gamepad,

I heard of ESDF before, and I understand how this is better than WASD.
The reason I use WASD ist because I am just lazy to remap everything, I like to start with the standard layout, see how it goes and go from there.

[cornshuckerprime]

<- WASD

[Opicron]

Since beginning of time I use WAXD. Much more natural feeling and more easy to retreat .

Anyway you will all have your best ergonomics figured out. Dont listen to me, dont want you guys to improve ^^. Already the matches are intresting enough, most of the time.

So you use the Numbers Pad_  Do you have a separate Pad apart from your keyboard.  My desk setup would not have the space for a full keyboard and Num Pad.  That has to be awkward.

I've killed 3 Z-Boards in my day, they are really really cool.
And that mouse, maaaan. That mouse I ran throughout the first decade of this millenium.
I found it in a box in my basement 2 months ago and passed it along to my oldest son as he embarks on his pc gaming journey.
I can only wonder if it will last to his children.

Exclusively: LH 360Joypad, RH Mouse. Guaranteed no keyboard finger tangle when you (HEAT Gren, for instance) dodge, boost, then Ability-activate and alpha strike in quick sequence.
One Ready-up benefit: with the Trigger, Bumper, and wiggling the LThumbstick, you can do some pretty fun dancing moves too.
YMMV

edit:

add whatever you want. XBox default A,B,X,Y keys in the .ini file should be left alone, delete all others

Come on, are you saying you hold a gamepad in the left hand and your mouse in the right hand_
