Horrible News to all you Mouse Wheelers

themonk · 11-18-2006, 02:29 PM

DISCLAIMER: BY USING THE NUMBER KEYS 1,2,3, YOU CAN SWITCH FASTER THAN BY CYCLING FROM WEAPON #1 TO #2 Dont believe me try it yourself

My request is for someone who can slow down replays and time the weapon switch in miliseconds

Because if it is true that NUMBER switching for HS, HHS, SS, and all the other moves is faster, then cycling back and forth then all the cyclers have to relearn all their K-style

The number switching is more pronounced when you do a stylish bf.... because its definately faster

Pros for "e" and "f'
Some moves its faster like Stylish step and QuickClimb

Are there any other great moves with "e" and "f" switching

doggoneus · 11-18-2006, 02:43 PM

No, they don't have to relearn k-style with mouse wheel. They have a choice, you know.

And we know that the keyboard switches weapons faster than the wheel, but it doesn't stop me from hs-ing well.

And using e and f would feel wrong to me. Q for melee, E for weapon 1, X for weapon 2. Makes flash stepping really easy for me.

themonk · 11-18-2006, 02:44 PM

How about stylish and Quickclimbing....

Its much faster with number switching than cycling

EDIT: Is number key HS as fast as RHS with cycling??

My point is less keys to press = faster moves

themonk · 11-18-2006, 02:44 PM

Also.... why do ppl give me dishonor lol its kinda lame...

I started off using the scroll mousewheel. I got a lot better when I switched to 12345. True story. I gradually switched though. It takes time to get used to, and a lot of practice, but the end results are amazing.

doggoneus · 11-18-2006, 02:52 PM

Its much faster to do k style with keys, yea. I never cycle fully though with wheel, just back and forth from melee to weapon 1. I use keys for everything else. HS is easier for me by keeping the keys for dashing only and the mouse for the rest.

Another topic :P

Ask CrimsonVixon, he'll show you his fux pro moves with scroll >_>;;;

Matt[CV] · 11-18-2006, 06:10 PM

^la, <3 man, but um yeah, scroll is just as fast as numbers, seriously come watch me play.

NSman · 11-18-2006, 08:04 PM

Actually, that is false.

Number switching and scroll switching are the same speed.
But only for the first switch.
Number switching allows repeated switches to happen much quicker.
If you're going to switch only once, they're both the same.
But for moves like flash step, you need to switch, then switch back very quickly which can't be done on a scroll very well.

There's also the issue of using items. Items with scroll is not a good idea.

Matt[CV] · 11-18-2006, 08:06 PM

Hmm, ^ tis true, FS looks so funny done by scroll, and yes you cant use items, however i can do HS HHS RHS RHHS etc. just as fast as a number user.

ghost bane · 11-18-2006, 10:30 PM

wait when u scroll for example u mean switching from wep 1 to 2 when u hs or something? i never really have to use keys i just use mi first wep to kstyle the second one is just for shooting someone faraway

bman · 11-18-2006, 10:55 PM

i use scroll...i kstyle better then most wheel users !_! lol

Scuba · 11-18-2006, 10:57 PM

we all know this. I used QEX. i switched out my 123 with QEX.

**That 1 Guy** · 11-18-2006, 10:58 PM

I use scroll...
I'm fine with it...
There's no difference if you use it right...

Also I'm going a little slower in this replay. I just logged on real fast to make it.

Jaghut · 11-18-2006, 11:38 PM

Your opening statement is horribly innacurate.

Direct-to switching is faster than prev/next wep switching yes.

But the keys aren't set, so dont say it as the keys, and it's only faster in that you can cancel it by using anything, as opposed to waiting for the animation to finish, the animations take just as long.
