lmfao very innovative but completely useless. Instead of spending all the effort energy and time (i know its a split second) to hit that pedal every time why dont you just program one of the 5 mouse button that you probably never use to do that same thing? I have 9 programmable mouse buttons and im not using at least 4 of them.

I think it could be, but we need something that acts faster, it takes a lot of motion to press that petal. I'm thinking a series of 5 light-touch pedals for the right or left foot would a be a cheap devicel that could be excellent for camera or control group control. Or even a four-way petal for arrow-key like camera movement, but all you have to do is rotate your foot slightly right or left to go right or left.

EDIT: After reading that article, I was hopeful. Turns out that article is from 2007, though, and the reviews of the current product are very lackluster. The input, it seems, is just not direct enough, and inconsistent. I doubt that is the future of gaming.

It's time for another good idea bad idea....

+ Show Spoiler +





Good idea, getting a new razer keyboard for sc2.
Bad idea, getting a new footpedal for sc2.

Good idea, getting a new foot pedal for your piano.
Bad idea, getting a new foot pedal for your sc2.

The end.


EDIT:

I've got this bad boy hooked up to my computer, and thanks several nifty bits of software, I've even set it up so that I can play SC2.

Is it practical? Lol fuck no. Good times though.

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...

ROFL must be awesome to play using that 'device'.

Could be useful for those who had lost their arms. They would just need a modified mouse with the pedals acting like buttons/ keyboard.

There are people who can play musical instruments with their feet, if pro gamers really want the best edge, having 20 digits to press keys with would surely be better than just 10.
Genius idea, there are no regulations for how to use the keyboard - so if one can train to sit with their legs up to the table and use simultaneously toes and left hand for keyboard + right hand for mouse, he could become the sc2 Michael Johnson.

ROFLMAO ! :D

I really can't see that one catching up.
Besides, the guy in the OP's video is too geeky. I could've done the same thing 100 times more easly, thru my Logitech steering wheel profiler, just adding keyboard keys that I don't use to my pedals and then assigning them into SC2 hotkeys.
No brainer really, but why bother when your feet can never be quicker then your fingers ?
I do come from racing games background (rFactor mainly), which uses pedals and such a lot, but that's a huge waste IMHO. Everyone by now is used to using their eyes, hands and fingers only when it comes down to RTS, FPS and whatever else type of games you can pretty much think of. Can't see that changing, unless you're handicapped in some way and can't reach the F2-F4 keys on your keyboard.

I have 3 sets of Logitech G25/G27 pedals under my table, probably gotta try out to bind some keys to them and make a video of 100 APM feet micro :D

Wtf? Just use the Change screen buttons set to either F5-F9 or like me to F2-F5. That way you can have 4 locations set at the time. I don't use them that much though since I am a space bar junkie.
