Dreams Money can Buy
I use my arrow keys and z and x thats about it....I do have a gamepad which I will use most likely for pvp since it has quicker reaction for guns and movement with the joystick thing...

I am a keyboard user (for now)
Once I move into my new place and get my other computer hooked up (9 days and counting!) then I will be trying my USB Rumble Pad. I hope it works well, if not I guess it's back to KB and Mouse for me.
I only use the touch pad of my laptop when there's nothing attacking me, and I need to shoot at a switch. Only down fall is the lack of angles which I have been able to work around for the most part, and when charging a bomb, I can only run in 2 diagonals, usually North East, and South West if I recall correctly, the others don't seem to work (really not sure why, it should all be the same shouldn't it?).

Game Pad and Mouse
I use a game pad (to move and shield) and mouse (to aim and attack). Joystick movement > keyboard directions.

I only use keyboard for running around and shielding with spacebar, other than that I use mouse for attacking.

click here
I always like to clickety-click, so I'm using my mouse.
Except for using arrow keys to walk when I have my charged attack ready, as I always release the wrong mouse button when walking with my attack charged :D

M2 for attack.
Scroll for weapon change.
Space for shield.
ZXCV for useable items.
Alt for HUD lock.
I only use arrow keys to move if I'm using a gun. Backwards shooting is very important.

Why does everyone who use a controller sound so elitist? Controllers aren't that good.

I use a controller but only because I'm pretty terrible with a keyboard, and using a MacBook, the touchpad is kind of .. not good for playing with. And since I already had the controller I didn't have to spend money buying a mouse. :P I have all my items and things mapped to it. A to swing, left trigger to shield, shoulder buttons for weapon scrolling, d-pad for potions/pillz. (It's an Xbox 360 controller lol. :[ )

Controllers are good for swordplay. They're pretty terrible for eveything else.

hi burrito! <33
But agreed; I will use my touchpad for careful aiming and such (especially with potions). Gunning is pretty difficult just because the control sticks are pretty finicky.

So many people look in the direction they are walking, how strange.
Backwards walking master race reporting!

I have auto-target on still, lol. ;< Gonna experiment with it off for a while.
I CAN aim while I'm walking forward, but once I let go the control sticks sort of "default" to up, down, left, or right, rather than the direction I was looking before. Kind of annoying! But as mentioned, I fix that by using the touchpad. If I'm in a pinch, I'll just move forward slightly. :>

Yeah, the straight line fire
Yeah, the straight line fire of guns just grows innacurate on a controller. Swords work just fine, though, because the attack in fans. It covers a lot of space.

Too bad SK doesn't have alterable control settings. :| Then I could put my shield on left click on the mouse, which would be perfect.

@Morpholomew: I think it does, been a while but I vaguely remember messing around with them when I first started
Back on topic: I use full keyboard, playing with calibur line swords and blaster series guns. Shooting isn't that much of a problem because the developpers thankfully put in a strafe button, so I can face one direction while moving all around allowing me to shoot something without too many problems.

You can map the keys however you want, actually! Just check your options. ;-)

Mouse.
I'll use the mouse to guide my player when I'm using swords and bombs swords, and then using Z and X to attack and shield, and when I'm gunning, I'll use WASD and the right-click mouse as my attack. I am rather suprised more people don't use the Z X buttons.
I originally played with keyboard and no mouse, but only for swords. I'd end up switching to keyboard/mouse whenever I wanted to run and gun.
The problem is I didn't want to have to switch back and forth. Now I play exclusively with keyboard/mouse. The only issues I see is when I lose my mouse pointer on a really busy screen and end up attacking in the wrong direction with my sword.
Just takes some getting used too. I wish the gamepad support was more reliable. It's not bad, but it feels a little flaky.
