I too am coming up against the limits of what you can do with key bindings.
As it is right now each hand controls eight or nine keys in a roughly
telephone-keypad type arrangement centered around navigational keys or fire
control keys. I don't see how it can get much faster than this while using
the keyboard, and I would actually buy a USB joystick or game controller if
it was supported. As in my last post, continuous turning with the arrow
keys would go a long way toward making game play more fluid. Anyone
interested in comparing key bindings and different strategies for rapidly
accessing weapons and motion/direction changes, I"d be happy to.
Keep herding nerfs. Nerfi? Nerf? Hmmm.

I tried using a joystick and a mouse but I can't get neither to work. This
business about sighted people having advantage because they can use a
mouse--well, either the blind AQ community needs to learn to use one or we
need to gain some advantages over the sighted to make it fair, because soon
we will be playing against them I have no doubt. Personally, I would love
to see mouse and joystick support. With just a few more navigational cues
we could really make it work--and anywhere you read about Quake people
laugh at anyone who uses a keyboard to play.
