Special Move? How to do it?

[WaR_SPiRiT]

Ingame I believe it says LB + X to do the special move (Uppercut etc..) How do I do this on the keyboard? Shift+Q doesn't seem to work.

I don't really know the exact buttons for it, but mashing Shift + E or Ctrl + E seems to do the trick for me during combat lol. D:

Shift + E is executing a downed zombie or when sneaking from behind. I still don't know either. Like a spinning kick or something like that. :/

Yeh I can do the "Shift and E" stuff but I want to be able to do the Uppercuts and other stuff. :P

the defensive moves are so hard to do... i'm talking about the counter attacks or the one where you kill 2 enemies in one hit.. WHen i tried those moves they don't execute and I ended up getting bit more often.

So... I normally went with something easier like body slam or leap over zombie's body.

The 2 enemy in one hit isn't even a "hit", the person grabs the heads of 2 zombies and smashes them together ...and this move is also a bit tricky to pull off with a controller. I wish there's an easier way for the kb/m players to do this for more zombie killing fun.

shift + left click if i'm not mistaken....

I've just did it with the keyboard, shift+ctrl.

Press left control first when they strike and it will do a slow motion thing, 2 zombies must be at the same distance next to each other and without moving, press shift+left control.

edit: and for the OP, it is shift+left click, for the LB+X equivalent, as achus said.

I think those special moves can be done if you character is skilled enough in melee combat.
take down is freebie for all

Shift+LMB is used for special attacks (Decapitate, Whirlwind, uppercut and such)
Double kill is a special counter which you do with Shift + CTRL (same as Piledriver). Another thing you can do with Shift + CTRL are the reflex counters (Instant counter and Leapfrog).
You can also do all kinds of moves from Shift.
Press Shift to run towards a zombie then press SPACE when you're near him to drop kick it in the face. It takes a bit of stamina but it's hilarious. The zombie either falls out flat on its back or dies instantly.
Shift+CTRL while moving executes an evasive roll (very useful against juggernauts)
And good old Shift+LMB executes a heavy attack. This is very useful with heavy weapons as it makes zombies fall to their knees (also there's a good chance of instakill). This is executed from running as well. If you're standing still it will execute a special attack (Decapitate, Whirlwind, uppercut and such), unless you don't have any special attack yet.
Pressing space while you're engaged in melee combat executes a sort of a rabbit punch with your current weapon. Haven't found a practical use for this, but it looks pretty damn cool.
