This thread made me laugh so hard that I started to cry.

I need to learn how to play StarCraft on a DDR pad.

I'm guessing that the main point of this is so that you can macro with your keyboard hand without having to use f keys... but to be honest it takes way less energy to just use mouse buttons 4/5 as switch base cam/camera hotkeys.

I see the idea behind this but, I really don't think this is the future of pro gaming at all, not to forget that tournaments have to allow this stuff before it can be used, thats never ever going to happen IMHO.

It's a really cool idea, but is it practical? no not at all.
It might help out a small percentage of people, but not everybody.

But lets see what happens over the next couple of years if this thing works properly (which I don't think it will) but if it do, then it's up to organizations lile MLG, NASL, GSL and what not to determine if they wanna allow it and use it.

well you could set up some hotkeys for your feet, i think its even legal to do it

Imagine those close ups on pros feet in GSL.

Even if it was useful to the game, bringing it to events and setting it up would be a hassle :x

To all the haters: You should show some support! This guy thought of a cool idea, built it and went through the effort of showing it to you. If you want more people to do this type of thing then you should support those who do.

I think it is a very clever idea. Obviously it isn't for everyone, but some people will definitely appreciate it.

For shame TL, For shame!

I like the possibilities with this. Don't know how viable it could be but this is super cool!

Honestly though I haven't tried just the foot pedals. I can see it being better than the 7-8 buttons on the keyboard for me at least, I already have 9 and 0 rebound to my mouse, and 7 and 8 are the only remaining keys I still sometimes miss on my keyboard.

Now, let's see what happens when I show up to MLG with this monstrosity...

how is this more effective then hitting f1 or double tapping hotkeys to move... i use mouse 5 to switch between bases seems quicker then using a foot pedal

However, they will ban for using this device for 2 keypresses, as the OP is doing (control + Fkey). If you choose to use the pedal, use it for backspace or something if you really have to, but if you continue to use it as it is right now you'll get banned for using macros.

I always like to make up fake infomercial quotes for stuff like this:
"The petal is so natural to use, I wouldn't know for sure because I move this awkwardly in all of 3d-space.
I always try to shield slam face, just to make sure it doesnt work

This... well... It's cute.
I guess?
My opinion, no. This is not feasible.
