osuaaron Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Terrifyingly expensive. $50 for a mousepad. Really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
run_hello Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Why are the hotkeys for my attacks on the right side of the failboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuzt Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Why are the hotkeys for my attacks on the right side of the failboard? I'm thinking they would be smart enough to not put hot keys there. I would imagine thats more of a cooldown viewer not hot keys. At least I really hope thats the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I really hope thats the case. I guess it could be. I already have that on my screen though. Would be cool to be able to put ability icons on the 1 through = row instead of by my mouse hand. I guess if you're a lefty this thing works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monthigos Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Why are the hotkeys for my attacks on the right side of the failboard? Yeah I would buy this keyboard if they were on the left hand side. The mouse doesn't look all that different from the Naga (which is a bit cheaper), and reviewers were saying it felt like it was cheaply made. Anyone actually have one?

Last I saw it was 6-8 weeks on the mouse even shipping, I'm not sure if any are even out on the market as of yet. That said, I just bought the Naga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostyk Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Imagine changing your play style. With the multi touch screen you could control your movement and keep your left hand on the right side of the keyboard. The right side of the KB would just be for chatting. That combined with the hot keys on the mouse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That combined with the hot keys on the mouse... I guess it wouldn't be a big deal to move both hands over. I'd like to see someone actually playing with it so I can see how it's meant to be done. I'd hate to plop down a lot of money for something that doesn't feel comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putok Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I personally have not had good luck with Razer products in terms of durability, so I'd be cautious about buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitewolfe Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 What i do not understand is do all these special game keyboards have the control panel on the right instead of the left. I use my right hand for mouse control. With these keyboard my right and left hand would have to be uncomfortably close together. it would make much more sense for them to put it on the left side of the keyboard so your right hand was on the mouse and your left on the control board. This is why instead of these keyboards i use a nostrome keypad for my left hand and the keyboard is just for typing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggress Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 So, If I read this right, these products are not available yet??? Someone dropped the ball... Would of sold more witht he initial HYPE of game, now these will end up as a what if product...The keyboard looked intresting, but as I play more, I think I talked myself out of buying a set.... Love the game Bioware, Looking forward to the polish down the line....And will be looking for some unique products too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostvein Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Razer products are hit or miss. I bought a Naga and had no complaints, 2 years old and still works like a charm. However, the Lycosa Keyboard - ugh. I checked out the reviews on Newegg, Amazon, etc. and despite the terrible ratings, I ignored them based on the success and stability of my Naga and went ahead and purchased one. What a mistake. Nearly every issue that they were reported to have I've encountered in the first two days I played. - Keyboard randomly stops working for no reason. - Keyboard control panel doesn't respond to my configuration. - Keyboard control panel doesn't remember my configuration. - Locks up on a particular key and keeps repeating the command. And several others. Further, the whole thing just feels cheaply and poorly made. I have 20 dollar keyboards that are studier then this one. I wouldn't even mind if it was a once in while thing, but over the course of 4 hours last night I had 5 lockups. That's unheard of. Do yourself a favor and buy razer with caution.

VorpalK Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 yea the lcd keys are neat, but they're on the wrong side of the keyboard. I'm not retraining myself from many years of muscle memory for something that expensive. Already have Logitech G13 (and a G-19 main keyboard) that do what I need very very well.

At least I really hope thats the case. What's the point of cooldowns displaying on a keyboard? When does any (competent) gamer ever really look at their keyboard? Nope, first thing I thought when I saw that keyboard was "too bad the custom buttons are on the wrong side... and above a touchpad". Seriously... who uses a touchpad for gaming, even if it is a multi-touch screen? The mouse is interesting, but they've put too many buttons (12) on the thumb. Last I checked I have 4 fingers and a thumb on my mousing hand. I'll stick with my Logitech G15 keyboard and G700 mouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skaara Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Sad to hear about some people having issues with razer products. I have the naga and a keyboard from them ... some mechanical type one and I have never had an issue with either of them. Honestly the best ones I have ever had. I agree the swtor ones are severely over priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuka Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) I have the mouse and it's quite epic. The keyboard is about $50 too much for my taste. I would have jumped on it for $200 but $250 I can pass on. I've only ever had one problem with anything Razer and that was with the Onza and Razer hooked me up with a new one within 2 weeks.

I agree the swtor ones are severely over priced. I have a mamba mouse that the scroll wheel became useless on (randomly going the opposite direction that I was pushing it) It's apparently a known problem, and Razer refused to fix it, so I don't buy their products anymore. When I buy a mouse that costs THAT much, I expect it to work for more than a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idunhavaname Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Lol they keyboard has got to be the most useless and overpriced gaming keyboard I have ever seen in my life. Additional buttons on the RIGHT SIDE? If you have to move your entire left and right hand then you're doing something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
