I think a dyesub key from SP (or Imsto if they SP brings up copyright issues) will give us a better key

.

I'm up for ordering from whomever--would you mind supplying me with links, please?

Thank you!

demik · « **Reply #5 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 17:45:12 »

well, if you're going dye sub.. might as well look at trying to do a set of different legends?

hopefully you don't run into any copyright problems...

dmbr · « **Reply #6 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 17:49:00 »

I can probably get permission to use it if copyright becomes an issue. I've got TF2 connexx

So, you can still get a discount for buying in bulk with different images on the keys, am I to understand?

If so, I'm sure we could do the icons for all 9 classes.

demik · « **Reply #7 on:** Sat, 26 May 2012, 17:50:23 »

i believe so. individual keys are more expensive than full sets. look at the current nyan cat GB as an example. buying key individually is like 9 dollars more expensive than it being offered as sets.

Zehkul · « **Reply #22 on:** Thu, 31 May 2012, 04:19:02 »

Those as doubleshots and I might take some, depending on the colors. I don’t even play tf2 very often (once every few months, lol), but these keys look very decent.

pix3l_fodder · « **Reply #23 on:** Thu, 31 May 2012, 05:22:33 »

We need RED and BLU logo win keys. Pref doubleshot on solid colour keys if possible.

BFL (BLU) and RCU (RED) for team logos

I can say that those are not feasible the way the are as a DS - too much detail and thin lines.

They do look awesome though!

Oh God, yes. Do awesome mock-ups like this for a whole set.

Edit: but yeah, with feasibility in mind

pix3l_fodder · « **Reply #28 on:** Thu, 31 May 2012, 08:58:31 »

I had gathered the red may have been to detailed but it can be modified to fit inline with DS standards, Obviously at the loss of detail. I'll have to remake the red logo for thicker lines. Surely the blu key is ok? Anyone have any vector key templates I can use?

By the way, would any geekhack veterans want to help me facilitate this?

I'm willing to do the legwork cause I want these so much, but I feel a little overwhelmed being a first-timer...

something like http://geekhack.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=12717&d=1285895431

i'm not implying to copy the whole design, but at least:

1. Gun selection 1,2,3,4,5
2. WASD
3. And the rest of the function keys from A-Z

I find the tab, spacebar, ctrl, shift redundant.

postlapsaetia · « **Reply #47 on:** Fri, 22 June 2012, 09:37:36 »

I'd be up for some CS keys!

Djuzuh · « **Reply #48 on:** Fri, 22 June 2012, 09:40:49 »

Most of those key can be bought somewhere, don't remember where.

Qtan or feng I believe.

Slaughter · « **Reply #49 on:** Fri, 22 June 2012, 09:55:17 »

Not sure if this has been abandoned or not, but I'd be interested in both TF2 & CS sets.

postlapsaetia · « **Reply #50 on:** Fri, 22 June 2012, 13:16:01 »

Feng has them, but they're around $80 for the set.

pix3l_fodder · « **Reply #51 on:** Fri, 22 June 2012, 15:12:52 »

Original poster hasn't replied... not sure if that means he isn't going to run this? if someone else is going to pick this up i guess it would be better if they're American if they're ordering from SP. Would be willing to do more mockups if there was more interest.

transcend3nt · « **Reply #52 on:** Sat, 23 June 2012, 05:06:30 »

i think $80 is quite steep.. looking for more alternatives~! hopefully, someone here can help design cs/tf keys although i'm only looking for cs keys

*well hey, CS global assault is coming out soon. don't really think TF is popular now, hmm?

You can't compare those stats, as TF2 is f2p and is not necessarely the same public.

Oafmeal · « **Reply #55 on:** Sat, 23 June 2012, 13:50:43 »

How about we look at the 350+ TF2 players signed up for the i46 LAN, then... Outshining CS, BF, CoD LoL, Dota, or the category known as "other games". Looks like a couple American teams are likely to make it across the pond for the first time ever... If public servers, and f2p don't count, then perhaps the growth in the competitive community, and commitment of the players means something.

CS is of course incredibly popular, but TF2 has retained numbers, and is actually growing in certain ways.

I'd love to see some numbers on the population of those games over a number of years, but I can't seem to find the info.

pix3l_fodder · « **Reply #56 on:** Sat, 23 June 2012, 16:02:08 »

Perhaps we can get Qwerkeys to produce just an escape key with the tf2 logo?
