Do you hotkey units, town halls, or barracks?
« on: January 03, 2020, 11:58:18 AM »
I'm just curious what percentage of players are using the "assign hotkey" function. Really the only time I use it is on chop games with multiple death Knights.

If you're unfamiliar with what I'm talkin about, basically you can click on a Town Hall or a barracks, or a group of units, or even an individual unit and simultaneously hit Ctrl + a number 1 through 0, and then control that unit or building by just typing the number that you originally assigned. So if you assign a town hall number 1, you can put your viewfinder anywhere on the map, and then type 1p, and a peon will start production at that town hall that you assigned the number 1 to

I dont assign hotkeys to anything. I dont even use the space bar and dont use hotkeys on my Smith upgrades, dk spells or altar spells. I think I just found out why I'm so bad at war2  :thinking:

imo thats like the easiest one to learn... it still takes time and can be a bit frustrating forcing yourself to do it.. but your left thumb is right there all the time any way.

i love it.

im one of the rare ones who dont hotkey anything 90% of times. sometimes i hotkey raxes but v rarely, i think they r the only important ones. im just too used to my old sko0l style.

i used to play with italian hotkeys bak in the days many years so there u can judge me again after ur silly thoughts newbies.
