    I leave the controls pretty much Standard , if its not FPS and supports the xbox controller then I usually end up using it.

    Also have the Apex. I love all the colour combinations on the zoned RGB lighting. My laptop also has a SteelSeries keyboard with full RGB lighting that can be programmed to change colour in pulsing waves. I go for a nice purple-cyan-red scheme, but no pulsing.

    What controls do you like to use, whether its keyboard and mouse an xbox controller a playstation controller maybe you even have joysticks or something else.

    This is what I use for driving games now.

    Arrow keys - left, right, forward

    gear up - x
    gear down - z
    handbrake - spacebar
    I thought these were the standard controls for racing games?

    QWER for Action RTS / RPG games like Dota 2 and Grim Dawn.

    The only controls I generally rebind are changing things to my Mouse 4 and Mouse 5 buttons for quicker access. IMHO Mouse 4 and 5 is a necessity for Dota 2! Other buttons I rebind in Dota 2 are Z, X & C for activating inventory items.

    I actually bought a Logitech F510 for this purpose but I still find myself going back to a keyboard and mouse even for these types of titles. But I think that's because I prefer playing on my monitor rather than on my TV. I just can't seem to get into couch gaming or maybe I just need a better couch?

    MRW I saw the controls for Star Citizen:



    I think I may have to invest in a HOTAS when that game comes out.

    Goeie hemel. That Zboard looks way too much. Will never be able to play on there.
    When playing fps what more do you need that WASD, control, shift, space and mouse?

    Not much else. Depending on the game it may have a button for throwing a grenade or a melee attack but for those controls I also bind them to my Mouse 4 & 5 buttons.

    Yeah, some games might have action buttons like e or F. Or R to reload even though most casual FPS games reload is automated
