They should have shown the "SteelSeries Merc Stealth" instead. That's their top of the line FPS Battleboards. We use it for programming, battle testing and the office as well...
cmon other then the fact that you can switch the keys out its nothing special just bind your numpad to all that stuff and if your gay and rp bind your fkeys to the other crap
im debating wether i should get a g13 gamepad and a mouse, or get a g15 keyboard and mouse or get a steelseries merc and mouse Or a zboard and mouse. Any ideas?
iv had my zboard for a few years now but could never get used to the FPS gaming keyset. Plus i found it very hard to type in game because of being so used to normal keyboards. Its great if you take the time to get used to the layout. But then of course the time will come to get a new keyboard and you have to get re-used to the standard keyboard all over again. So id say probably great for WoW players but not so good for FPS gamers. Truly great concept with changeble keysets though!
I was very happy when i got this back in 07... 1 week later i broke the right side of the Wow side of the board all commands broke and the arrows cant even scroll so i have to use the w,a,s,d thing that i dont feal comfortable with but besides from that i love IT@@@@@@@@ its rly ez to clean cause u just take it out and rinse it. i might get another wow keyboard
i brought a Zboard about a year ago was on speical for 60 bucks (aus) grabbed the World of Warcraft keyset with it as well since it was 25 bucks used it for around 6 months and all of a sudden when i push the L key it comes up with , instead and when i push , key it gives me a space..bit dissapointed as there a great board..i really need another WoW board..makes things so much easier in a battlegrounds or a raid...and auto run button ahhh instead of gay num lock
so the one coming out for counter-strike would that work for css also? And is cs and css a popular game considering i play it a lot i dont know many people in real life that play it lol
dude fuck ideazon. i got the guild wars keyset and this peice of shits base is nop where to be found. i go to that fucking shit head site it says to and it says"Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed." dumb ass canadians. but seriously if you know where i can find the base to the guildwars factions base i would be in love with you forever. dont be a fag like canada.
Agreed, zboards are LO TECH. You need so many keysets because the letters keep rubbing off! Get a G15, does the same stuff without the pretty pictures glued to the bottom. Oh and G15's have built in BACK LIGHT! Zboards need lights on 24/7 to use em.
This product is ok, It would be better to just get a nice dollar keyboard that has shortcut keys to it, the only real use I had with Zboard was with CS and the buttons were actually kinda useful. All in all I'll give the overall product a 3.5.
lololol its faster to "enter,shift+7,g" than pushing a key thats like wtf away from where I usually have my hands.. left hand on WASD and right hand on my logitech G5 which I love just to add that haha :P btw guys this keyboard sucks it dosent have comfort at all and it makes ALOT OF SOUND when you type on it.. its crazy I'm not even kidding, get a saitek eclipse or something.. I have that one its a dream to type on. and it looks awesome too :P
its a seriously gaming keyboard so if u arent a seriously gamer DONT buy it its the worst keyboard if u chat alot.. but for hardcore caming it rocks. I got 2 keyboards 1 for gaming 1 for writing
i think zboard is better than the G15 if u buy the keyset to a spec game like wow.
It gives you shortcuts to ur macro's, therefor making you able to cast ur spells in addition taskbars/toolbars on the keyboard which is faster than clicking it.
by doing that u kill faster meaning u gain exp faster meaning in the end u save a hell of a lot of time.
what do you mean by saying wow is gay? wow is a great game its badass and its a lot of fun too. gay..lol.. ok I agree bood elf males are gay but nothing else in the game :P
i use 1 2 3 4 5 6 etc to use spells this keyboard only saves your time if your a slow writer and is faster with clicking the button than writing like /G wich i am.. everyone have their taste but no it doesnt makes you level faster since a regular keyboard can du the exactly same thing..
I've been using a Zboard for the past 5 years.. Really good keyboard!
I never use the fps addon keysets though, But I really enjoy the standard keyset!
