Keyboard controls - anyone having problems adjusting to them? - bonarae - 18-Feb-2016

One of the first things I have noticed in both the Steam version of CC1 as well as CC2 is that the keyboard controls are vastly different from what we grew up with playing either MSCC/TW (i.e. the arrow keys.)

I seldom play CC these days but I have difficulty adjusting to the new-style keyboard controls (i.e. many other Steam games use the same pattern found in the Steam versions of CC.) Although we can adjust the controls to our taste, but why were the keyboard controls changed from the what the original versions had?

Quote:Chip is now controlled with W, A, S and D on the keyboard not the arrow keys. This is because Chip's Challenge 2 needs six keys. Plus Chuck wanted to pay homage to John Romero. They've been friends since Jon contacted Chuck after playing Snake Byte for the Apple II.
