Night, you use those keys? I just use the arrow keys...in all honesty, I wasn't even aware you could change them. How do you?

using nm./ instead of arrow keys is a pansy method i'm sorry =\
if you're gonna play 2 handed, deal with the fact that your hands are overlapping. I could play one handed with nm./ and be better than one handed with arrows most likely

hm.. lighten up alt.. people play how they feel like playing..what ever lets you preform to the best of your abilities is the best way to play.. i personally play..
L = LM
D = LI
U = RI
R = RM
... but for playing with a twist i play

L = A = LM
U = S = LI
D = D(arrow) = RI
R = R(arrow) = RM

Key:
L = left
U = up
R = right
D = down
M = middle
I = Index
A = A key
S = S key

How do you change the keys???? :S

You can't on FFR silly. You can on stepmania though.

And 87x, I think just about anyone would play better using nm./ vs arrow keys. The point is that the game is intended to be played with arrow keys. You don't see people able to use alternate setups when they play DDR now do you?

4 fingers it the best by far if you learn to use it properly. I use 4 fingers.

well the positions i lifted as arrows keys are just starting positions.. as you gain experiece playing you form your own way of hitting certain key combinations...if you play 4 fingered you know what im taking about...

and Altairian.. you kina lost me with your post.. i use the arrow keys... but you say

4 fingers...index, middle, ring, and...thumb? That's what I do, though I only use my thumb for the \/^ step. I use my thumb to hit the down arrow and my middle finger to hit the up arrow.
