>press 'c' to crouch
>ctrl is unbound
why the fuck do games do this shit? how is c a convenient button to crouch?
>>
>>343985582

if a game has prone/crawling/standing then i use C and X keys for both of those. i use Z if i have to to reset back to standing (if the game allows for that)

If the game only has a single crouch position i just use ctrl.

in games like crysis, where you need to run and crouch to slide, it makes sense.

Unless left Alt is taken, it's usually better nine times outta ten.

I prefer to have both.

Ctrl for hold

There's a reason why I don't like PeeCee gaymers.
They always find flaws in everything instead of enjoying the games. Can't even use their beloved keyboards without complaining about how shit the concept of quickly pressing C is.
It's quite sad, really.

Usually I just press Circle to crouch. Nobody wasted their time discussing it.
>>
>>343986126
Bro are you ctrl niggers fucking autistic? Next you're going to tell me you use your index finger to hit spacebar? All you have to do is keep the top of your thumb on c and the middle portion on spacebar which makes crouch jumping on source games easier and you can also do the same to hit x v b n and m all while still having your thumb on the spacebar in case you need to jump.

Jesus Christ how horrifying.

They're set to toggle. You were never unable to aim and crouch at the same time.

A lot of games these days have both. It could vary in older games though.

Well I'm talking about on PC. Hold crouch was in a lot of games in the past and some people like it so usually on PC you'll have a choice. Either with two different key binds or as an option you can toggle.

It can usually be configured. For some games it's better to have it as a toggle (games where you spend extended periods of time crouching), for others it's better to hold (good for easy crouch-jumping etc). Some games even let you assign a key to each.

>They're set to toggle. You were never unable to aim and crouch at the same time.
You still have to stop aiming briefly in order to reach over and hit crouch.

Shift for crouch is best tier.
>>
>>343985582
C is easier to reach than CTRL.

But CTRL is better for holding the button down since it doesn't tie up your WASD fingers.

So C is optimal for crouch toggle and CTRL is optimal for hold to crouch controls.

I can't believe you didn't realize this, OP.
