Bf2 Zboard

Re: Bf2 Zboard

If your parachute button doesn't open, there is a fix for that. I use the Zboard religiously and find that what people say here about typing being hard to impossible while in game is true. But I mostly don't type. i stick to VOIP anyway as most of the typing I read is garbage. I have rarely missed a key switch for weapons or movement or crouching/prone since I have switched to ZBoard. I do think it is cheap construction and even some of the words are wearing off my keyset, but if it breaks, I would replace it tomorrow. Between it and a great mouse, you are rockin.

Re: Bf2 Zboard

It didn't install properly.

If it was installed properly there should of been an icon on the right hand side of the tool bar.

Did you install the lastest software from their web site and run the key set update (via Zboards software) ?

Re: Bf2 Zboard

Zboard is bad @$$. I will never look back.

Re: Bf2 Zboard

Nostromo for the win.

Zboards are cool, but how do you type while in game?

How about that Wolve keyboard? The one with the WSAD arrows on the left side?? Seems much better then a ZBoard because it allows typing.

Edit: WEBSITE

Personally I use a Nostromo. It's got enough keys, programmable and I can move it when it's not being used. But I think these are pretty cool if you have the desktop room.

Re: Bf2 Zboard

i have a zboard and the BF2 keyset...

IMHO a waste of money... I simply use my ol' 101 keyboard 99.9% of the time anyway...

Re: Bf2 Zboard

I use the keyboard with the 'included gameset'
it has built in codes (not macros - but key assigments) which I HATE
so, I remapped all keys that made sense for me
the trick weas to open the console in game, depress every key
and see what the game 'thought was being sent
eg, "[" or "]" or ";" or "alpha character" whatever
why do I use the Zboard? fatter keys :)

Re: Bf2 Zboard

Like I said:

It comes with a standard keyset and a generic game keyset

Standard Keyset


Generic Game Keyset


Any other keyset has to be purchased:
