The biggest problem with the expansion ...

Necrotoid · 08/31/06, 3:27 PM

... is where the hell do I bind my keys with all this new stuff? I can't use the Ctrl keys, those are already pet controls (and I became addicted to bottom left Ctrl as my Vent key anyway).

Is there any hope for those of use with a 2 button + wheel mouse?

Actually, that's a surprisingly low pricepoint. You still need a REAL keyboard to be able to, you know, talk and stuff, but still. Maybe my wife needs one of those for christmas...

Mhedic half the guild has been talking about the G15 for like four months now.

The best feature of the G15 keyboard, however, is knowing immediately exactly who it is that keeps hitting his Vent PTT key by accident.

I'm also a fan of the mirandag15 plugin that allows me to see who IMed me and even respond without having to tab out.

You sold me on this keyboard on that feature alone.

http://www.voice-overlay.info.ms/

Shows a text overlay over WoW with who is talking, joining/leaving (if you want), etc. Works with other games as well I believe.

"Kalman, why aren't you assisting on the Spellbinder".
"Second, girl IMed me about going out this weekend."

Clearly that is the less costly solution.

I used this functionality a few months ago, and at the time my system started crashing periodically when I was running WoW. If I wasn't running the overlay, I didn't have the issue.

Perhaps later versions of this program don't have issues though, or perhaps it was isolated to my machine.

Regardless, I have a G15 now (as does my wife - even my mother, believe it or not), and its wonderful.

I was too busy seeing who was holding down the PTT key.

Pfft G15! Go with Optimus Keyboard! Now only if it was available currently.

G15 isn't a bad keyboard its just nothing really that great over just using a normal keyboard. I mean you have what ~105 keys on a normal keyboard unless you have every single rank of spell bound to a key you have plenty of keys to bind (I use 3 rows of keys for my bindings and if I needed to could add a 4th action bar for the last row I also use the number pad for consumables though normally click them).

I thought the biggest problem was psychotic gamers like me having to waaaait, but perhaps the problem, as exemplified by this amazing keyboard, is that WoW induces psychosis in many players.... :p
