If you're looking to get really good at the game, you're going to have to switch to a mouse & keyboard combo; that's how people can jump and move around while Play against bots, or try going through some of your older games (Half-Life, Quake 2, Quake, Duke 3D) in single player mode, and that should help you get

In today's news: "Quake is a far more complicated proposition than Doom -with true 3D environments and much trickier levels. Any Quake player worth his salt uses the mouse+keyboard combo, an analog joypad is hardly a substitute. I don't expect it to be, and I don't expect an U64 to match a $2000 PC- I'm

Then I realized you get a much better feel for the game & better response with a mouse/keyboard combo. you can goto planetquake.com for some more help with controls What's a good setup for the Sidewinder 3d Pro or is there a better way to control? I also have a Sidewinder game pad. Would this be better?

As far as UT and Q3, I have a PC w/cable modem and am a dedicated mouse/keyboard combo fragger. I really don't think I'll pick up the DC ports for those games. Dreamcast has a mouse and keyboard Phantasy Star Online, which is said to play like a 3D Dialblo 2 according to IGN, will be out next year also. Thanks!

Quake 3 - Initial Thoughts
And maybe surfing the net if you buy a $250 modem, mouse, and keyboard combo. Whereas with a early 1997 PC, you'll have integrated 3D PCI video, Direct3D game support in Win95, and the ability to do ANYTHING. Who buys a console expecting to do anything else but play games? In early '97, you'll be able to buy

Why? I think it would suck!
You're stupid enough to admit to having limited experience with the 3D controller! I have both PC and N64, and I wouldn't mind having a N64 joypad for PC, and once I did see one for about 30 in EB. I didn't buy it because I was skint. However, I would not use it for Quake, I prefer the mouse and keyboard combo too

SpaceOrb or Wingman Warrior?
It breaks my heart to see so many complaints about the mech3 mouse/keyboard controls after seeing how much effort the development team has put into it. Including myself, I use the joystick instead of the mouse/keyboard combo, one: because I'm used to it due to activision's mech2, and two: because I can feel lasers

Screw the joystick, you've got to play the best way - mouse & keyboard combo. Use a 3 button mouse (Logitech Mouseman or First Mouse+ suggested) for movement and freelook, and keyboard for commands, etc. It's the only way to play 3d shooters. (Note, this is just my opinion. I' just can't imagine ruining a game like

What Controller to buy?
I don't have one yet, but plan on buying one soon, as it seems ideally suited for 3D gaming. Its nothing fancy, Think of it as one of the new 6-axis joysticks I'll never buy one because, frankly, I'm most comfortable with the mouse keyboard combo myself......and, I like to have access to the keys without having

Avara: I want my sidestep keu
In order to be better, I know I will have to use the mouse-keyboard combo. This will be tough, since I have been using the keyboard alone ever Wolfenstein 3D. Does anyone have any suggestions for define the keyboard keys? Which ones do you use to walk forward and backward? What do your mouse buttons do?

It's been 3 1/2 years...
This probably has something to do with the fact I beleave them to be an inferior method of control for Quake then the old reliable mouse/keyboard combo. :) My box is one of those new "Sony PC"s.

For you young folks, it was a system unit/keyboard combo, not unlike the VIC 20s and C64s to come later. Included a monochrome monitor, 4K of RAM, and was able to display crude I think the first program that really impressed me for use at the scope, once I upgraded to the PC, was David Chandler's Deep Space 3D.

Gambit Gambit...@hotmail.com alt games quake2 I played with just the keyboard for the longest time. Through Doom, Doom II, Duke 3D, and 1/2 way through a TF game of Quake, I told someone that I was just using a keyboard and he said "So that's why you suck". So, I figured I would try the mouse and keyboard combo.

Since the VooDoo 3 card handles both 2D and 3D, the keyboard combo doesn't seem to work. It worked fine with the VooDoo 2. Thanks for your input!
