Game Keypad's - Anyone using?

Postby Tellez » Fri Sep 26, 2008 3:59 pm

Hello!

Just saw this keypad and wanted to know ur opinions and experience with keypads + wow.
I'll buy Ideazon Fang Gamepad next week, and i was thinking if anyone had some experience with it, or with similar gadgets.

Nowdays most of us use alot of keybinds instead of clicking, but i admit i still click on some habilies, like Beastial Wrath, Rapid Fire, Aspect of Vyper, etc.
And the keybinds are getting occupied, and i hate to use shift+* ctrl+* alt+*, so this keypad will bring some new bindings to me.

Reviews, "i have a friend that has it", "i read somewhere that it sucked".. is what i looking for.

What i used to do was i move all my keys one step to the right. So instead of moving with wasd, i move with esdf. And 1 becomes 2 and so on.

That gives me a couple of extra keys. And i personally like to use shift+key, so with the extra ones i get from moving to the right, + that i have pretty much all of them with shift also, it gives me enough bindings.

I have no experience with the gaming keyboard, but personally think it would just be messy. Also, if you'd want to write something while you're in a fight, you'd have to move your hand a fair bit.

Looks cool though :D

Im just some random friend of mikes [Cless] just thought i post here considering i use a gaming pad.
I use this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-Nostromo-SpeedPad-Directional-Throttle/dp/B0000DC643 Its an N52 Nostromo Speed Pad it sits perfectly in your hand and has a D-Pad which is pure quality. I bind 1-8, Shift 1-8 and Ctrl 1-8. 24 Keys bind in 1 hand. Then i have my mouse, MX Revolution. Like 7-8 Buttons that i can bind to keys [e.g. Alt 1-2-3-4-5 ect].

Ive find that the game pad i use has improve my game play by alot. Also its extremely confortable. :)

I might be mistaken, but I think Grim, (the famous moviemaking rogue) used something similar to what you linked. And he was (imo) good as hell.
