Hey Kolya, could you program nostalgia-goggles into shock portable so all of us braindead quake deathmatchers can somehow enjoy the antiquated controls? :D
I think some of you underestimate how difficult it is for wasders to adapt to asdx. It's not very immersive when you're fighting the controls harder than you're fighting the enemy.
As for those of you who think us late-shockers are bemoaning the lack of rocket jump...well anyone who plays modern FPSes relies more on cover than on mobility. And you have to admit that taking a full 3 seconds to turn 180 degrees is a bit clunky, especially in a game that features regular ambushes and some of the worst respawning I've ever seen.
tl;dr stop being elitist.

Nostalgia-goggles are in already and called 1024x768 resolution. SS1 controls are like french kissing, either you like it from the start or you'll get used to it for the greater good.

It's just so difficult to move your middle finger down one key.

Actually...yeah, it is. For the same reason it's hard to write with your left hand when you're right handed. Or eat with chopsticks when you've grown up with spoons and forks. Or control an FPS with a console controller when you're used to keyboard and mouse. Or play with inverted controls.
Of course we can practice and get good at doing it the other way, and with the aforementioned examples, I actually have because they're useful and/or amusing skills.
But for SS1, I used

Leave System Shock alone!!
How friggin dare anyone out there make fun of System Shock after all it has been through.
She lost her creators, she went through a divorce. She had a friggin sequel.
Her lead programmer turned out to be a user, a cheater, and now shes going through a custody battle. All you people care about is..... trying to change her control scheme and making money off of her.
SHE'S A COMPUTER GAME! What you don't realize is that System Shock is making you all this money and all you do is write a bunch of crap about her.
She hasn't performed on monitors in years. Her program is called “Sytem Shock” for a reason because all you people want to do is CHANGE SHOCK CHANGE SHOCK CHANGE SHOCK.
LEAVE HER ALONE! You are lucky she even performed for you BASTARDS!
LEEEAVE SYSTEM SHOCK ALLLLLONE!.....Please.
Perez Hilton talked about professionalism and said if she was a pc game she would've pulled it off no matter what.
Speaking of professionalism, when is it professional to publically bash someone who is going through a hard time. Her native operating system is no more! Vista won't even give her the time of day!
Leave System Shock Alone Please.... Leave System Shock alone...right now....I mean it.
Anyone that has a problem with her you deal with me, beacuse she is not well right now.
leave her alone.....
