My arrow keys just earned themselves a long holiday.I had no idea until people were mentioning it, but I haven't really played RS in 2 years and I don't really play it now so I guess that doesn't count.

My arrow keys just earned themselves a long holiday. Yeah, I only knew because I have been lurking about in a lot of forums and it popped up somewhere. It is pretty awesome and I am relatively sure that a lot, if not most RS players do not know that it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ammako Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Actually the scroll thingy is just indicative of all sorts of outdated interface mechanisms in RS2007. For people who are accustomed to 2013 (which most of us are) that can be a big hurdle. From having to go to tools for 'run', not being able to press tab for replying to PM's, and a whole host of other things, it's certainly annoying. When the whole premise of the game is to spend countless hours grinding, that can make a big difference. I don't support a separate development team, but that's one thing Jagex should have done: streamline and modernize the interface.It is possible to press Ctrl to run. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My arrow keys just earned themselves a long holiday. I still use the arrow keys even though I knew about the scroll button...I remember spazzing my screen about a bit with it when it was released and thought it was some sort of novelty thing, didn't realize it was actually useable :L Asmodean <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I must admit I'm not even sure what people means when they say the 'scroll button' so yeah I'm as clueless to it doing anything to do with camera controls.

Assuming you have that button and aren't using some archaic dinosaur of a mouse with a ball in it. 1 Quest Cape Achieved on November 14, 2007Items AcquiredCrystal Pick and HatchetBerzerker Ring x 33/28 Barrows Items Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Oh the middle button/scroll wheel - that makes sense now. Thought pressing and swivelling sounds like more hassle than using the keyboard imo.

If you use the rest of your keyboard functionally mouse based movements are better as seen in almost all games that require it. Thats why wasd is so much better then arrow keys for movement because you have other functional keys near by and you use the mouse for moving in the "third" dimension.

Meh like I said I find using the arrows to be less hassle; for me it works better and I get more done. I also hate WASD and change controls to arrows in most games that allow - I just can't get on with WASD.

DeSani Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I think Jagex should offer one month free for 2007scape only to Free to Players.
