Popularity issue persisting after 0.5 release

That brings me to the idea that maybe we should ship Xonotic with a decent keyboard layout that has the weapons not on 1, 2, 3, but rather around the movement keys? Because switching weapons with the mousewheel is not really an option for this game.

Errr.. I use it.

That what kojn that should be done and probably a tutorial map/video when you start the game for the first time. Urban Terror has that: A video which explains movement basics (with text and voice) and some weapons.
