So, I've churned through a few keypads including MS Strategic Commander and Logitech G13. both have lasted physically but been let down by dropping of software / driver support.
Right now I'm up in the air between the two new options. I know I'd at least initially be more comfortable with the Keyzen but this is as a long term purchase and I doubt I'll have funds for a second purchase anytime soon. so it might be worth it to just go the Cyborg II and put up with the learning curve.
What do I play? a good mix and for some titles the thumbstick will be motion control and others the central key cluster.
e.g. :
MechWarrior / BattleTech games, thumbstick.
Most RTS games going back to the 90's, thumbstick for scrolling.
Grey Zone Warfare and other fast / tactical FPS, central keys.
there's a heap of others but these indicate the style / need division.
Other considerations:
keys easier to tune with simple mods, e.g. buffer rings, but need custom pads as non available just yet or near future.
Cyborg, in theory faster but huge learning curve.
I know a crap ton of this comes down to 'personal choice' just looking for feedback. if I get keys and like them I'll likely get Cyborg. if I get the 'borg and am negative or non-plussed very unlikely to get keys.
