Which key is the correct one to crouch with?

>>377582038

control

answering otherwise is blasphemy

>>377582038
Depends on whether or not you can sprint while crouched

guess which one you fucking baby

>>377582038
If you're not using it for anything else, I say shift. Although it can be tricky to switch muscle memory from ctrl to shift.

>>377582107
>Sprint while crouched
How does that work?

>>377582038
F is the most comfortable crouch bind

hold: ctrl

toggle: c

>>377582038
The real question is do you toggle or hold the button to crouch?

>>377582038
If there's a button for walk/run toggle then Ctrl for that and C for crouch.
If not, then whatever fits your other binds.

>>377582149
Red Orchestra, PUBG, Arma 3 and some others do this. You stay lower but don't run as fast.

>>377582038
C because Ctrl is for prone

>>377582038
I was an advocate for ctrl but I think all the milsim type games have converted me
ctrl just feels wrong now, especially for toggle crouch

>>377582038
C in games that have momentum wherein crouching improves upon that momentum so that you can easily Shift sprint into C or games where you can simply sprint while crouched, otherwise CTRL every time

you'll usually be doing more crouching than jumping space is easiest and fastest to press plus you can still press every other button on the keyboard while holding space

prove me wrong

Control. That way you can still have full access to WASD while adjusting your stance.

>>377583273
With a little finagling, I can reach Num Lock and 7. Sorry to disappoint.

Using C shows that you aren't underaged. HL1 had it binded to C and I never changed it.

ctrl for held crouch
c for toggle crouch

>>377583325
Half Life 1 was also far less of a stealth game.

pinky gets really tired after doing this shit for a while. Go ahead, play super meat boy with default keyboard binding for an hour where you have to hold shift 95% of the game and tell me how it feels. C for Toggle Crouch is the only right answer. Why would even want to hold crouch? Are you retarded or something?

Depends on if there's prone too.

All of the above are toggle, not held.

Shift for crouch, always.

I don't like bending my pinky down far enough for Ctrl and most games I play don't have a run function anyway, just jump and crouch.

>>377582113
Well, why would you need to run while crouching? Running almost always immediately takes you out of the crouched stated, so it's a no-brainer. Control for crouch.

>>377582038
Depends on the game but generally whatever your comfortable with.

>>377582251
Depends on the type of game for me really. Most FPS I use hold hold but some I do use toggle like RO2 but as you mentioned stealth games like MGSV its toggle all the way.

>>377585884
Yea, team fortress 2 trained me with shift as crouch for crouch jumping
Shit like morrowind and dues ex can be toggle with ctrl or c, it doesn't matter you press them once every 6 hours

>>377582262

I use this in warframe because of the slide meme.

I started using right-click to jump in Quake 3 / Quake Live / Reflex and that's really hard to break.

In UT obviously it's secondary fire, but yeah.

>>377583817

right contrl or left control?

i do it for old PC shooters of the90s

>>377582038
C makes no goddamn sense, especially if crouch jumping is a thing.

can someone please explain to me, what the fuck is the logic of using "C" to crouch? There has to be one, surely

>>377586731
Are you retarded?

>>377582593
there's literally two game series that use prone.
In one of those there's great control option like "Change Stance" (tap Ctrl for crouch, hold for quarter-second to prone)

>>377587279
It's the best control scheme. You use your thumb to hold space while sprinting which gives you the best dexterity in your wasd fingers.

If it's only crouching, ctrl.

If it's between standing, crouching, and prone, then c is crouching, and ctrl is prone.

>>377583403
Actually just put a fucking gun in your mouth and end your life you utter dribbling retard.

Left handed master race. I use right cntr for couch, right shift for run, arrow keys to move, and num pad 0 to jump.

since i'm an old HL2:MP player
crouch: space
jump: mwheeldown

same shit on every source game

>ctrl: allows you to keep moving with wasd

Control has been the shoot key in FPS games since forever.
If you crouch with control then which key do you use to shoot?

>inb4 "brainwave at 5500Mhz for jump and 5600 for sprint, cuz you have to sprint twice as often and it's the less busy frequency, absolute schlockhead!"

>>377588667
f is for interact

wew lad

>>377589279
You what mate

Ctrl = Shoot
Alt = Strafe
Shift = Run
Space = Use
Number keys = Change weapons
Esc = Menu
Up arrow = Move forward
Down arrow = Move backwards
Left arrow = Turn left
Right arrow = Turn right

>>377582171
I will accept this answer

'X' to toggle crouch

Ctrl for "hold to crouch"

C for toggle crouch

I don't disagree with the option but in what situation would you ever want to hold the button down to crouch? Why not just press the toggle button again?
