I've had my Eclipse for a few months now and I am quite satisfied with it except for ONE thing... I cannot use the W-E-D combo or the W-Q-A combo. I find these combo's extremely important in first person shooters where there is peeking/leaning involved. I had always thought it was just the limitation of the keyboard and that all Eclipses were like this. Until of course I found that one of my gaming buddies has the same keyboard and I had noticed that he does all the same basic moves as I do with the Running-Strafe-Peeking in Raven Shield. I asked him what his controls were (I thought he had some custom ones because at that point in time, I assumed that all Eclipses were the same). He replied that his controls are completely default.
Default controls in Raven Shield are WASD with Q being peek left and E being peek right. I thought maybe it was just this combo and maybe he can't do a combo that I can do. Turns out to be the other way around. He can do every combo that I can, and more. With the numbers up at the top of the keyboard (0-9 in the same row as backspace) he can hit 1-2-3-4-7-8-9 at the same time. I can only do 1-2-3-4-7-8 at the same time. While this combination is quite useless, it does bring up something that I believe is extremely important.
For those of you out there that have the Eclipse keyboard, can you use the W-E-D or W-Q-A combination? When did you buy your keyboard? REMEMBER, ONLY SAITEK ECLIPSE OWNERS! This does not mean those of you with the Saitek Gamer's Keyboard which is a completely different keyboard.
