Macros are not cheating, just like wide screen is not cheating.

the sad part is that you cant remember the hotkeys for 3 races ......

if you think you have to do it, do it. but dont think you can do this at a LAN.
Inputting special characters into chat should no longer cause the game to crash.

macros is cheating, changing hotkeys is cheating

good thing is that only bad players get helped by this while good players laff at how easy the game already is (when it comes to speed on keyboard and mouse)

I'm mostly setting it up because I'm random and the hot keys are completely different for each race, which is lame and stupid


man, if u find learning the hotkeys for all 3 races to be difficult, i don't think you play enough to ever have to worry about being competitive.

I can understand the players that want to change some hotkeys around, but binding several keypresses to one key using 3rd party programs is never cool imo.

Take the time to learn to play without the crutch.

Sounds more difficult to remember G# then the actual shortcut key for an action. Just waiting on what Razer's keyboard is going to be as I want to switch from my natural ergonomic keyboard to a straight flat keyboard as I don't use 7->0 keys easily.

I don't think changing the hotkey itself is cheating but using a macro to do a queue of actions is cheating.

^That's my thoughts, its a slight hardware advantage, its not modifying or changing the game files or anything.

It is unfair... but i doubt that this will be allowed on a professional level. I don't even think professionals would want to use something like this.

Well, that not a staight comparison. First of all, you are comparing output with input. Secondly, viewing in 4:3, 16: 9 or 16:10 is still how the game was designed by the devolpers. There are differences between these, yes, but there is no real way around that other than giving people with a 4:3 resolution the black bars if you know what I mean. (Yes, or the sidebars for 16: 9 and 16:10. But these resolutions have become standard for newer screens/models).

What you are doing with Marcos, would compare to playing Starcraft on 2 screens or having an arftificially modified zoomlevel. Still don't get how that would be unfair/cheating?

The final game will have the ability to remap all hotkeys to any keyboard button (well almost any button). The german version of sc2 beta already has the qwert hotkey setup (the 15 action slots of the gui are mapped to qwert asdfg yxcvb respectively) and i think you can edit the hotkeys already in the beta.
btw ... war3 introduced custom hotkeys somewhere shortly after releasing tft i think.

i cant see the drastic differnce between custom hotkeys and logitec function key macros.
