No good with keyboard and mouse.

Post » Mon Sep 23, 2013 11:23 pm

Are you PC veterans as comfortable with the keyboard and mouse as you are with a controller? I just can't seem to maneuver as well with the keyboard and mouse, and I always have to readjust my mouse on the pad.

Is this just because I have always played witha controller? I want to get good with a keyboard and a mouse, so I am forcing myself to not use a controller, but my archer just can't get out of tight situations as easily as she can with a controller.

I don't know what mouse you use, but my Microsoft optical Intellimouse is very quick, and i am a Archer too... :cool:

I only changed the Look sensitivity on settings (in-game menu), and nothing else. (no additional adjustments to any ini file)

i play skyrim + DLC's + HD texture pack + all unofficial patches.

Did you make the sensitivity higher? If so, how much?

for me it is the turning around and running fast enough.

EDIT: do you use your pinky for the sprint key?

you just need to get used to it..

I've played on PC and various consoles over the years, and I am much more comfortable with a mouse and keyboard...

with a Controller or gamepad i need to sit there for a few minutes "this does this... that does that.."

but with e keyboard and mouse I seem to know instinctively what does what and such...

then again, most PC games use the same (or very close to it) controls...

Using a standard Microsoft mouse, I set the sensitivity a little bit to the right of halfway.

With a Sensei mouse, the default setting was fine.

I cannot get on with controllers at all. I use a highish mouse sensitivity setting, most of the time, except occasionally when aiming a bow.

BTW, I use a Func MS3 which allows me to switch between settings on the fly and is a great mouse if, like me, you have big hands.
