I am almost 100% sure it's just you.
Why on earth would you want to do that? are you trolling?

Mouse + Keyboard = million times better for jumping than 360 controller. It's like eating soup with a fork...don't do it.
The reason why is because i only just started playing pc like 3 days ago and i cannot get used to the mouse and keyboard its just to hard :(

An average PC gamer will totally destroy a professional 360 gamer due to the difference in controls. You can't possibly hope to be good at jumping using a 360 controller.
Oh, ok then i will try and get used to the mouse and keyboard :) Oh yeah thanks for the advice :)

My suggestion would be...complete the single player CoD4 game and by the end of it, controls will be second nature to you.
Ok i will do that and see if that helps me :) and thanks for being so helpful :)

I agree.
My advice would be not to use the standard "wasd" control configuration.
Experiment with different controls and find out what works best for you.
I have a special gamepad but before that I used the whole numpad as controls, worked fine for me.

No problem m8.
Numpad is the whole keyset on the right of your keyboard;

num
lock / * -
7 8 9 +
4 5 6 +
1 2 3 enter
0 0 . enter

You can change em in what ever you like m8.
It's what works best for you. Like I said before experiment with different controles a bit.

I think it will probably take me ages to get used to it tbh after playing xbox since 2001.

I am left handed so the numlock thing probably would be okay for me but if anyone has any suggestions for what i should use i am more than happy to listen :)

I used to move my keyboard way to the left. Since I don't have room to do that anymore I bought a gamepad for my left hand :)
