I just got a razor death stroke keyboard and was wondering if the marco abilitys of it are approved by the eula. I have read that the logitec G series but I couldn't find anything on this brand/model.

I would guess that the same rules apply, I also have a gaming keyboard with macro keys, but will be using them as single action hotkeys come Jan 1 and waiting to see how things pan out.

Bear in mind that the GM/dev responses with regards to the G15 keyboard and the like is likely to be outdated given the recent dev blogs.

My reading of the dev blogs and changes to input multiplexing and automation is that you can use macro keys as long as they only perform a single action; multiple actions appear to be a no-no, even the historically acceptable ones such as f1-f8 (replaced by weapons grouping) or activating all your hardeners at once.

If you want to be sure, raise a support ticket.

my support ticket regarding binding F1-F8 to a single G-key is "in action" at the moment. I'll keep you posted.

Read EULA. Answer is VERY clear in that.
They may choose not to chase down certain very minor examples, but it's a very very clear answer of NO according to the EULA.
Really, stop trying to cheat people, stop asking dad when mum doesn't say yes, and stop asking aunties and uncles as well till a single one gives you an answer you can take as a yes.

Topic locked, this has been asked before. As others mentioned, file a support ticket for any sort of binding answer.
