After using the Battlefield 2 keyset for about a week:
Overall I enjoy using this keyset, as it makes it easier to find keys that you don't normally use. The quality of the keyboard is good, and it has a nice feel to it.
The only negative that I can say is that it is not as easy to use when you are trying to send messages to other players, as the keyboard is designed slightly differently (shorter space bar is the biggest issue).
I think after using it for a few more weeks, the above will not be as much of an issue.
everything is labled for the game
at first, the keyboard looked cheap and the keys were in slightly different places than normal, but after time, I got used to the layout, and found that the keys actually work surprisingly smooth. It probably helped my game a bit. The extra bit on the front of the board did break off after 2 weeks, but I didn't like using it anyway.
Zboard and BF2 keyset. A must for any regular BF2 player!
Straight out of the box the zboard didn't feel as good quality as the keyboard it was replacing, however it was replacing a high-end MS item. I would say it is on a par with the keyboard I use at work, if not a bit more 'Clacky', but up against my son's budget keyboard it feels a whole lot better!
I'm not a pro-gamer but more of just a regular BF2 player, and have been looking for a dedicated gaming keyboard for a few years erversince first playing CS. I even painted up and old keyboard and stripped out the unneeded keys once to make an easier to use gaming keyboard. So when I laid eyes on the Zboard it was a 'must' to get.
The normal Zboard keyset has all the normal keys where you would expect to find them and there are many extra little functions you can set up using the software provided. Changing the keyset can be done in under a minute just by unclipping the old and clipping in the new one then clicking the keyset refresh button in the system tray.
I found using the standard gaming keyset with BF2 awkward when trying to get a good prone / crouch setup that was comfortable and easy to use. It did not help that the control setup in the BF2 game seemed to not want to allow the combinations I required. I even stopped playing on ranked servers for a week as I was getting badly owned while getting used to the new keys.
However on receipt of the dedicated BF2 keyset it has all changed! After slipping the keyset in and firing up BF2 and returning the key layout in the BF2 controls back to default all the controls feel well laid out and intuitive to use. I will probably now start to use some of the controls that I have not used before as it looks as if there are a few to use in the commander's screen that will make life easier.
Pros:
*Easy to change keyset, under a minute. No pulling ps2 / usb wires out, fiddling around at the back of the pc.
*Very intuative layout has made playing BF2 with the dediacted keyset a dream.
*Two USB ports in back of keyboard.
Cons:
*I have found that sometimes the keyset does not refresh properly on a change This maybe me being impatient, or maybe it just doesn't register. A shut down and restart always resolves but is a pain in the neck. Maybe I'm not doing it right! LOL!
*It can be hard to type messages in game as half the letter keys are in weird places!
*Split spacebar in normal keyset can be a pain until you get used to it.
*There is no scroll lock button on BF2 keyset, so X-Fire users will not be able to respond to incoming messages in game unless they ALT+TAB out of the game and back to the desktop.
*When using a thumbstick in USB port in the back of the keyboard, I received an error saying the hub didn't have enough power. I don't know if that is the hub in the keyboard, or on the motherboard.
Conclusion:
On the whole I think for me the whole lot was a good investment once I had the BF2 keyset installed. If I start playing any other FPS games, I will certainly look out for a keyset for that game, too.
For me it has made an already great gaming experience even better.
