Using Your Keyboard To Win Space Battles

By Angie B. Berge


Lots of the most popular PC based space games entertain their players with incredibly complex and challenging space battles which force you to think creatively while fighting your enemies. Boss fights and other large conflicts can be quite challenging, but learning to use vehicles, your own armor, your weapons, and some special items will make the fights easier for your character. Althoughrecent games present many difficult challenges, the truth is that the more difficult they are, the more you enjoy the rewarding feeling of having overcome them. Whata few players do not realize, however, is that the keyboard and mouse setup that you are using to play your game could be hindering your battling abilities.

You will often need to use a few different items together in order to winspace battles, especially those that come at key junctures in the game. Your character's powers are likely controlled by mouse movements, mouse clicks, and lots of different keyboard commands; these relate to item inventories, character movement, and the use of special abilities. It is much easier for you to react in the midst of battle and execute complicated combinations of items and attacks if you are using input devices that were made specifically for games.

A gaming keyboard will enhance your space battles by granting you additional, programmable keys where you can set any commands that you wish. Gaming keyboards are also crafted with certain keys closer together than traditional PC or laptop keyboards. An example could be a gaming keyboard that includes some spare buttons near the arrow keys so that, as you are directing your character, you can quickly reach for a button that activates a specific ability.

If you have believed in the past that your computer's mouse is accomplishing little more than steering your character in the right direction during battles, think again. Gaming mice have extra buttons set in the two click able buttons and around the side of the mouse where your thumb rests. Thumb buttons are nice because you can click on them and activate an item or ability while you are also using the mouse to move your character or clicking on the buttons to attack.

Macro commands are also commonly accepted in online games which allow you to program a chain of attacks, items, and other actions with the use of just one click. Gaming accessories, such as keyboards and mice, are excellent for helping you overcome the challenging space battles in your favorite games.
