    I recently bought a Gaming keyboard(Logitech G15) to use macros and try and be faster with my games. Does anyone know if starcraft 2 will have full support of gaming keyboards?

    Does anyone have any starcraft original profiles or macro recommendations?

    Emm, don't these gaming keyboards support only one game each? Cause they are advertised "board for call of duty" for example. And I don't know how can they help.. but you know it.. I am happy with my current keyboard:)

    And I think you will be able to use yours, but maybe not all functions? Who knows?:)

    I have the same keyboard, here is all i have to tell you:

    There is no LCD Screen support in SC1, but im assuming there will be in SC2.

    Volume Control does not change volume in SC1, adn i doubt it will in SC2.

    Macros work, and can be programmed on the fly. Here are my macros:

    G1-mmmmmmmmmm Fills a barracks with marines.
    G2-gggggggggg Fills a barracks with ghosts.
    G3-ffffffffff Fills a barracks with firebats.
    G4-tttttttttt Fills a Factory with tanks.
    G5-wwwwwwwwww Fills a Starport with wraiths.
    G6-vvvvvvvvvv Fills a Factory with vultures.
    G7-cccccccccc Fills a Barracks with medics.
    G8 through G15-Unused
    G16-STFU Says STFU 8 times in a row.
    STFU
    STFU
    STFU
    STFU
    STFU
    STFU
    STFU
    G17-Stay inside tonight. IDK why it says that...
    G18-EVERY1 CHOOSE RANDOM! It says this because we want ppl to choose random in diplo infi...

    No there is the logitech g15 that has as many profiles for differnt games you want but blizzard does sell keyboards for world of warcraft

    My keyboard does pretty much the same thing as the previous post where it fills up Unit buildings but it can also log you into starcraft which is fun exe ( Multiplayer, Expansion, Ok, PASSWORD, delay, /join your favorite channel , /check your friends list )

    If anyone has any MACRO / Key sequence ideas for starcraft let me know

    Oh yeah, I only saw those advertised for one game, but I see, gaming developes, and Logitech was always a good trademark.. Thank you for the iformation, I am thinking of buying one already. Maybe it would make the games more enjoyable..
