 But I'm terrible. I can't aim, can't use powers efficiently, etc. Would you guys (and gals) care to share any tips to make adjusting to the PC controls easier for a Peaesstree player like meself? Many thanks 

[loupert]

I'd start by getting a decent mouse / keyboard.
If you're using the stuff that came with your PC, then I'm betting it's just adequate for getting internets done.

Once you get used to the keyboard / mouse combo you'll find it hard to go back to the controller.

It started the same way for me and now I don't even think about the pc controls at all. I've been playing ME3 on xbox since day one but never did any shooters on pc. I saw ME3 for $9 a few months ago and decided what the heck. Took awhile to adjust to the controls using a keyboard and mouse but really you just have to keep logging hours. Eventually you'll start to memorize the keys and not fumble all over the place.

I have a laptop, but recently purchased a wired mouse and a gaming mousepad. It just seems like there are SO MANY buttons compared to Dualshock controls.

Cool thanks!  I'm over here dying on bronze to Cerby troops...just standing there "you can go ahead and kill me, i won't be able to find the '2' key anytime soon LOL" <_<

Remap Tab to your medigel key for reload-cancelling. Remap E for ops pack.

Don't know what to tell you about improving your aim, mine hasn't really got much better after four months >.<

Idon't even know what key ops packs are yet...6??

Lol, well hopefully I'll see some improvement soon. Obviously, i don't play fast-paced games on PC enough

There are a few PS3 players who occasionally play on PC (DragonRacer,Wngmv,DHkany are the ones I know of) so I'd ask them if I were you.

alright, thanks. I'll do that

[DHKany]

Ehh, you just have to practice I guess. Map Ops packs and Medigels to more reachable keys (I have medigel at E and Ops packs at C).

Getting used to not being able to 'quickscope' using sniper rifles and the likes also takes some time to get used to.

So, basically practice

[loupert]

I migrated to PC from XBOX and I can't go back (the controller is fine, I'm good with either or, it's the beefy graphics that the XBOX can't produce)

I play with a Steelseries Merc Stealth keyboard and a sensei mouse - very responsive, great key layout. As everything is USB, I can keep 2 keyboards and two mice plugged in at the same time - one set for gaming and one for writing.
Your standard key mappings are in the upper left of yor screen - 1-4 for powers, 5 for missiles, 6 for ops packs, 7 for medi-gel, and 8 for ammo packs ( but if you play the Talon mercenary with all powers, you'll have to remap something to access the ammo clips).
No auto-aim on PC, so you'll be missiling fewer swarmers and scoring more head shots.
You can also learn to "run the pizza" - a very helpful skill -and iirc, only PC players can do this.
Charging weapons (e.g., Acolyte, Geth shotgun) is hold right mouse key.
Spend a evening playing some bronze matches just for fun, and you'll get the hang of it in no time.

I'll have to see if I can find some on sale then lol.
The non-auto aim will be very nice once i get the hang of it.
I had a few kit on PS3 i could sorta do this with, N7 Fury being the best example because her forward teleport is hard to activate.
Thanks! I hope so lol, made my hands quite tired today

Novaguarding is good practice to get used to pressing powers and dodging.
Also good for developing carpal tunnel! 

Yay for Carpal Tunnel! This time I get to include all of my fingers and not just the right trigger finger.
Alright, I'll give her a whirl and see if i don't end up as a decorative rug for the nice marauders and such to wipe their feet on

Oh, you can quickscope. Just no auto-aim.

To play correctly on MP I bought a new mouse to allow more buttons with the right hand.
Practicing is the best way to find what is not comfortable and correct it. Each feeling is different.

I moved across from ps3 myself. It took a bit of patience in the start. I got a razr hex thinking that it would be essential to map keys from the keyboard onto it and tbh, it's helpful but not essential to have gaming specific hardware.

My main mappings are:
RMB: shoot
LMB: scope
MMB: Power 1 (e.g. throw)
Wheel forward:Power 2 (e.g. dark channel)
Left shift: Medi gel (for reload cancelling)

But as guigui says - everybody are different , try out a few things.

To make up for the lack of sixasis, enjoy:

Not waiting around staring at load screens
Headshotting collectors
Getting through more games without disconnects
Looking around whilst sprinting.
Reload cancelling

well that's not very helpful, I know plenty of Novagods that are fully Gold capable.  I already understand how the game itself works.  My current problem is transitioning to the PC from PS3.  Seeing as I don't play very many PC games yet, I was requesting assistance in becoming quickly comfortable with PC controls.  Quite a few forumites have made helpful suggestions (such as remapping, upgrading equipment, etc.) and have described what it took them to transfer from console to PC.  Most of all, I have realized the value that simple practice is going to hold for becoming comfortable on PC thanks to these wonderful contributors.

I'd rather not post my key bindings...people might say i'm a noob

*cough*right side of the keyboard*cough*

in the 10-key area?  and do you play right handed mouse or left?  I was considering putting everything in the Numberpad area too because it seems so nice and compact
