I always have the mouse on the right of me, even when I'm not playing.

I used to use the arrow keys but I died alot when I stretched over to enter vehicles, switch weapons, etc. so I got used to using the WASD keys. It's closer to the other commands.  I didn't know you can use the numbers, that's new to me!  :happy:

Quotes from the battlefield.

"FOR THE REPUBLIC!", "Bu-bye!" - Clone Trooper

"Bang", "We need more troopers like you!"- Stormtrooper

"Failure is NOT an option. Fight HARDER!" - I made him mad (=9)

i used to use the arrow keys but i foung it hard to move from arrows to other keys so now i use standard WASD
primary fire-mouse 1
secondary fire-mouse 2
zoom-i usually click the mouse wheel to zoom, but i got intothe habit of using z from playing halo too much
g-switch secondary
scroll wheel-switch primary
tab-playerlist, score
r-reload

WASD is better IMO because it's closer to other controls, like said above. F for primary switch, G for secondary switch, squad commands, and (If you're playing BF2) Alt and Shift. You can use the shift on the right though. But WASD has all the other controls right at hand.

I always use the mouse wheel to switch weapons.. it's way faster than with the keyboard.
It also allows you to keep your fingers on the movement keys.  :tu:

Movement.                      WASD
Primary fire.                    mousey and ctrl
Secondary fire.                 alt
zoom.                             shift
enter / exit vehicle.           E
change primary weapon.    Q / R
change secondary weapon. F

I use this scheme for essentially every FPS I play.

default settings for swbf1 and when i get a chance i will buy a short keyboard that has now number pad.

Default keys + fast fingers = no problem. :D

Mac also plays with a trackpad. *gasp*

No way! When I play with a track pad I get PWNed. Even by the AI!

Not only that but Mac's very good with a trackpad.
