[winter coral]

The real beta 😅

[dense ridge]

still playing =)?

cs2?

[winter coral]

Played in Clan back in the time - came back to cs 2.0 Skipped source because of wow back in the days

Just bought the Prime for it

[dense ridge]

@winter coraloh so u have skipped also cs go also?

[valid comet]

HOW

[dense ridge]

what how?

[valid comet]

You have to be crazy to play at 60°

[vapid storm]

you can't hit heads if you don't angle your keyboard

[winter coral]

Jep, didnt Like shields - Played only once

[dense ridge]

bro almost everyone do that more or less haha

[valid comet]

No I mean like almost vertical

[dense ridge]

yeah thats why u are not familliar with this 🙂

[tight cliff]

It all depends again on preference, heavier boards move less too

[vapid storm]

shields weren't in competitive play

[dense ridge]

@valid cometit was just for example.. my angle is a little bit less agressive 🙂

[vapid storm]

and it was introduced in 1.6 anyway

[valid comet]

Mine is probably at 10-20 degrees

[dense ridge]

@valid cometmine is probably 30-40

lol there are even videos about it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUvxt1BA5Sw

[vapid storm]

looks like I didn't angle mine in 2003

[low token]

Fire shirt

[vapid storm]

literally, I still have it at my mother's I think

[icy charm]

That poor wrist

[low token]

Rip

[vapid storm]

I worked out my left wrist every day, still going strong

[icy charm]

[low token]

Left?

[winter coral]

The Video is interesting - will try it out

[vapid storm]

right hand is for moving the mouse

[vagrant saddle]

im thinking about getting the 80he and was curious if the zinc alloy case was worth the extra $90

[winter coral]

Personal reference - Like 2 Cinema visits- one full gas tank of car…etc.

[vagrant saddle]

true

[dense ridge]

@vagrant saddle u can always change the case later if u will need it in the future

[shell heath]

wanna see this with the full white rgb in a dark room

[vagrant saddle]

also true, there arent any aftermarket cases thatll fit with it are there?

[vapid storm]

not at the moment, might be in the future but wouldn't count on it

[vagrant saddle]

fair

[humble cargo]

vibe

[dense ridge]

u can buy the wooting one later if there will not be any aftermarket alternative

[humble cargo]

do I spot intellimouse 3.0

[vapid storm]

correct

[dense ridge]

@valid cometthis is how i do 1 by 1! no idea what angle is this 🙂

[humble cargo]

still reckognize that red plastic bit on the rear

[valid comet]

About 30

[humble cargo]

my setup looked about similar at that time

[vapid storm]

perfect

[vagrant saddle]

which switches does the prebuilt come with? 45g or 60

[lyric nymph]

that's my angle but onto the oposite way

[dense ridge]

wow really? never have seen somone who is doing it in oposite way

[humble cargo]

intelli was about as close to a "gaming" mouse for the time I suppose

[lyric nymph]

that way is good to gaming, but it sucks when typing, so i inverted, and now its ok for both

[humble cargo]

predating that product category

[vapid storm]

looking at old lan tourney pics I started tilting my board the other way a year later, kinda weird

[lyric nymph]

got the space + can type kinda good

[dense ridge]

@valid cometmoving like this 2.2kg case 10 times in a day? will be kind of not enjoyable? or am i overthinking?

[lime aspen]

are you a literal twig

its only 5lbs lol

[humble cargo]

I don't see much appeal in making your kb as heavy as possible either tbh

[valid comet]

Its not that bad

Maybe I just have a really bad experience with ABS

[jolly tangle]

unlucky

[pseudo parrot]

if you move it out of the house I definitely agree, prefer to keep my backpack as light as possible

[polar stirrup]

yeah zinc only if you keep it on the setup

if you move it a lot get plastic

[jolly tangle]

🦀white zinc🦀

[celest laurel]

is the diff between 45g and 60g really subjective? what do you guys prefer to run?

[polar stirrup]

preference honnestly

[humble cargo]

60

[polar stirrup]

i like heavy for typing

[pseudo parrot]

I prefer 60 but it’s preference yea

[valid comet]

I think the zinc alloy case will be fine I wont die when carrying it

[humble cargo]

if my nick didn't make it clear

[polar stirrup]

your back is gonna cry

[lyric nymph]

i have no clue how different will be the 60 to the 45, going to use the free pack to test the one i like more

I didn't had much keyboards

[humble cargo]

its preference yes, 60 has a bit more mojo in the press for a linear

but I know some who find them a drag longterm

super light linears are a bit too vague and effortless to bottom out for my tastes

[valid comet]

Its already crying carrying my sub 200 pound body

[digital elm]

Guys, is my delivery going to be longer if I take a longer time to order during the campaign?

[buoyant solstice]

Potentially, yes.

[fast hound]

hello, advice me if I will get some kind of stock cable for the keyboard or do I need to order the Wooting Detachable USB-C Coiled/Straight Cable Set

[digital elm]

I’m already so late, I guess it won’t matter now, thx

[digital elm]

You already get a braided straight cable

[buoyant solstice]

What? The campaign's been up for a couple of days. That's not "so late"

[digital elm]

I mean, there already has been 12k pre-orders, that’s why I’m saying that I’m late

[polar stirrup]

yes it has a cable already

[buoyant solstice]

As long as EU-Kampioen and NA-Champion still have slots, you're in the same timeslot as everyone else who already placed an order.

[digital elm]

I’m EU, so maybe I’ll be lucky

[fast hound]

thanks 🙂

[fast hound]

thanks to you also 🙂

[digital elm]

Np

[jolly tangle]

thanks for modding the server anders im going to sleep

[obtuse sparrow]

When will the cad files for the 80 be available?

[buoyant solstice]

At the earliest once they ship out.

[low token]

So in august

[obtuse sparrow]

bummer, but alright

[valid comet]

You dont need to order a new cable, you can if you want for style points while still delivering the necessary power and data. The stock wooting 80HE cable will be enough but the coiled one is good for the most power/data hungry wooting board. I asked Mansen myself

[karmic oak]

[worthy pond]

nice

[sleek pelican]

do you need an seperately bought cable for tachyon, or does the supplied one work just fine

[fallen epoch]

Default one is just fine

[sleek pelican]

thought so, was just checking

neat, thanks!

[fallen epoch]

[primal sonnet]

wooting 65he when?

[low token]

No need because 60he exist

[glad fable]

Could be a future product

[low token]

40he and Wooting tkl he is needed

[tight cypress]

80he is TKL

[primal sonnet]

i miss my arrow keys...

[frank willow]

Hi everyone I'm new here, I bought the 80he 2 minutes after the release, do we know approximately when they'll start delivering?

[tight cypress]

Hub will tell ya https://hub.wooting.io/my/orders

[lime aspen]

I dont

[frank willow]

Okay thank you :D

[tropic otter]

For me it's saying early august now

[lime aspen]

Looks so much better without them + they are easy to use with wooting

[tight cypress]

60% and TKL are nice and clean, based on subset of tried and true layout of full keyboard
65% and 75% are unholy abominations with crammed keys

[primal sonnet]

based

[silk hedge]

Yea seeing as wooting now has 60 80 and full sized keebs i dont see them doing a 65 or 75

Maybe something like a detached numbpad

[clear swallow]

Seems pointless them making a 75% after doing an 80% imo

Be interesting to see how I go with an 80, used most sizes before but first time with an 80

[polar stirrup]

the next step for wooting is a knob

[ember cradle]

anyone know how much extra cpu power the 80he will use compared to the 60he?

[sharp summit]

knob with rt?

[low token]

Knob why

[sharp summit]

for rotate weapons?

[tight cypress]

Not really - mouse sends inputs constantly while you move it, while keyboard just sends an input when you press a key - 8k means there will be less latency between press and sending command to PC, but it won't be nearly as heavy for CPU as 8k mouse is

[left ice]

Question: For the 80he zinc alloy case, does the wrist rest for the 80he sit flush with the keyboard? Or is it more like the way the 60he rest fits the alumaze case?

[low token]

Scroll exist

[lime aspen]

scroll wheel to switch weapons 🤢

[low token]

What

I have g502 so it is instant

[violet garnet]

you and your unlocked scroll wheel

[low token]

Yes

[tight cypress]

Unless you spin it too fast and it doesn't register

[low token]

And all weights

[lime aspen]

its basically instant on any mouse

i just prefer having direct keybinds

scrollwheel is for a second jump key on 99% of games i play

[tranquil blaze]

Hey does anyone know the function of the led bar or is it just for aesthetics

did u email support?

[daring lichen]

yep

[verbal solar]

wooting support doesnt work on the weekends

[daring lichen]

since it was released march 14

and they are backlogged because of the 80HE release so lets give them some time

Is the new switch+keycap puller included w/ the 80He module?

[fallen epoch]

Yep

[runic flame]

Hello guys

[valid comet]

VERY.

[verbal solar]

Wish it had more irl pictures

[lime falcon]

very low ?

[lime falcon]

soon

[valid comet]

I wish we had more high res renders of them

Btw I think theres something wrong with the Wooting 80HE ANSI module space bar

The render shows only 1 LED instead of 5

[lime falcon]

probably just a mistake

[valid comet]

I asked, they said it had 5 LEDs

[runic flame]

Just ordered 80he as well together with the black JIS-ISO caps , can't wait, but take your time guys @ Wooting I know you guys are on top of things when it comes to making sure that the product meets our expectations when it comes to quality and performance. All the best Wooting! Happy founders campaign yall!

[river wharf]

I was told that taxes are duties that I have to pay in advance. The rate is 10% but jp taxes for keyboard is 7.8%, so what will happen to the other 2.2%?

[polar stirrup]

Best to email wooting

[umbral locust]

frfr

[distant iris]

do yall think kbdfans will release an 80he custom case like the tofu 60?

[deft basalt]

Probably, easy money

[distant iris]

if they do, i would buy the 80he in a heartbeat lmfao. only reason stopping me is after market cases because of the awkward layout

are there no standard tkl layouts in the market?

[deft basalt]

There are

[distant iris]

https://wooting-website.ams3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/61603672d19aa0d08107f39c/61dd8da853915830cc3369a6_Tenkeyless-keyboard-form-factor-min.png

if wooting released an 80he like this i would start drooling

[mossy swallow]

Can’t wait to get mine just pre ordered

[distant iris]

are you going to mod it

with an after market case?

[mossy swallow]

Prob not

[flat portal]

anyone know if the founders campaign price is the final price? Or will it come down when its in full release, really keen on one but its a bit out of budget

[grizzled cove]

final

[ebon sluice]

Kbdfans would still have to retain the layout, the 80HE pcb dictates that

[flat portal]

thanks

[grizzled cove]

the only benefits of the founders are the extra set of switches, the disc role, and website name thing

no price changes

[deft basalt]

Maybe slight price increases

But its like 10-20 dollars not huge differences

[grizzled cove]

maybe, i just saw that when the 60he had its founder's campaign one of the perks was a $15 discount but the 80he doesnt have that so i assumed it wont change

[violet garnet]

Technically you're paying less because of the free switches. The total cost would be higher without the founders if you were to buy the same things

[flat portal]

just so ive got this right, the founders package contains more stuff (free switches) but the actual price wont change

[grizzled cove]

pretty much yeah

[violet garnet]

Yeah

[flat portal]

ok sweet

[grizzled cove]

you get both lekker l45s and l60s

[flat portal]

will probably buy it then as i think i want the 45s

[grizzled cove]

which is pretty sick cuz u can just swap them out whenever using the board

[flat portal]

so it would save me money

[violet garnet]

Are the l45s prelubed ?

[grizzled cove]

pretty sure

[violet garnet]

@buoyant solstice with the free set from the founders?

[grizzled cove]

if they arent that'd be tuff

[violet garnet]

Yeah I probably wouldn't use them otherwise

[verbal solar]

💕

[tiny tartan]

Yes they are

[grizzled cove]

i see ppl on the reddit saying that even the switch packs come factory lubed, so id assume yes but mansen can prolly confirm

[violet garnet]

Ok

[polar stirrup]

they are factory lubed

hand lubed still a lot better

[valid comet]

Has anyone here used the Wooting shine through PBT keycaps very long term?

[polar stirrup]

i mean the 60he has only been here since 2021

[valid comet]

That seems fine

Are the PBT keycaps like GOOD PBT or BAD PBT

[polar stirrup]

i used them for 6 months before changing

they are still like brand new

no shining yet

[valid comet]

Thanks for your input

If anyone else has long term experience lemme know

[karmic canyon]

how do i change my pre order switches (the pre assembled ones) from l60 to jades? will it affect my batch?

[polar stirrup]

you cant

you need module to change

you have to order extra for prebuilt

just get module if you want the jades

[karmic canyon]

hm ok

nah not that important, just wondering. wont get it then

[polar stirrup]

im still waiting on the raw zinc pics before choosing

[valid comet]

That sounds so cool

[proud parcel]

4mill eur 80he preorder

[soft quarry]

No photos

[jade widget]

hard to take photos of a product that isn't finalized yet

[verbal solar]

Just a question. What’s the full difference of the switches ? Is it just feeling ?

[jade widget]

for which switches?

[verbal solar]

L45 and l60

[jade widget]

that's just the actuation force

so how much force is needed to press the key fully down 45grams vs 60grams

[verbal solar]

Ah okay

Ah the pre build comes with l60s ig I’ll just change them after

[surreal wasp]

Is that even noticeable?

Are the 45 grams better?

[minor junco]

Im so exited 80HE

[quaint sail]

Will i be able to track the Delivery when they are shipping the 80HE's

[obtuse wagon]

Nah it just magically shows up 1 day

Of course you will be able to track the shipment, once they actually get a label slapped on them

[autumn glacier]

with my current 60he i switched for the 45 gram and yes you definitely felt the difference. i found 45 "better" and more reactive but i believe it up to preference (might be to reactive/easier to miss input for some people) but for gaming it's really nice when you used to it

[winged pelican]

what's the situation with keycaps destroying switches? is it a common thing with cheap keycaps?

I'm thinking about getting zinc alloy keycaps lol matchy matchy

someone talk me out of it pls

[violet garnet]

I will talk you into it even more. Why spend so much on plastic when you can get a metal keyboard at a reasonable price compared to other metal ones 🤔

[round blaze]

what switches work with wooting 80

[buoyant solstice]

Same as on the 60HE. See #🪛│modding_faq and #🔧│keyboard_modding

[proper dew]

good morning

is it July already?

[upbeat berry]

its march again

[digital elm]

Sadly not

[upbeat berry]

you missed 10years

[proper dew]

lekker switches V68? Wooting 80HE 40th edition?

[digital elm]

Wait, did wooting do another kbd already? It’s been 10 years wow

[hearty sky]

😭

[river wharf]

Yes we have wooting 40HE and 65HE now

[proper dew]

we're all still waiting for the 80HE it was all a sick April fools prank back when they released the campaign

idk if u remember that it's been a while already

[proper dew]

still no TKL

[digital elm]

Yeah, I was wondering if it was an exit-scam or not, maybe we’ll get this year’s summer

[river wharf]

That will be another 10 years mate

[proper dew]

I will not give up hope. Maybe my grand children will have the honors to see the Wooting TKL in day light

[digital elm]

I remember abt a guy being not really happy about the kbd being delayed by one week, I hope that he didn’t sue them

[proper dew]

I remember a guy that came here to promote keychron over wooting

[river wharf]

Waiting for objective comparison like rtings of the 80HE vs keychron, hopefully that guy will still be here

[sweet skiff]

what kind of keycaps do you recommend for the 80HE ? I was thinking about taking the PCR plastic case frost (the clear one). But I don't really know what are the best keycaps...

white could be a bit boring

[river wharf]

I enjoyed MT3 profile

[digital elm]

Could be weird, but maybe those since the case is kinda clear https://kbdfans.com/cdn/shop/files/Kitting-Renders-006Basekit.jpg?v=1710212596

[sweet skiff]

yeah I already saw them but the RGB don't go through :/

[digital elm]

If you look closely it has a transparent layer

[midnight iron]

shine through is a bit rare if that's what you're looking for

most of the enthusiast keycaps aren't shine through

[sweet skiff]

understandable tho

[midnight iron]

personally i think just backlight looks better than shine through, but that's a pref thing

[bleak kiln]

I think the wooting double shot pbt just white will look great on the frost case

[digital elm]

I think Clément is French and Wooting doesn't sell any ISO French keycaps sadly

[bleak kiln]

I have them on an alumaze and they both sound and look like quality for OEM caps

[digital elm]

Which also makes me sad (since I'm French too)

[bleak kiln]

that sucks :/

[sweet skiff]

I am indeed but don't really care about it since I kinda know where everything is

[digital elm]

Same, but having qwerty keycaps doesn't fell right unless the letters are on the sides

[sweet skiff]

what are yours best websites for keycaps however ?

[digital elm]

for example, this keycap set wouldn't bother me even tho it's in qwerty

[bleak kiln]

I have used and can recommend https://oblotzky.industries/ for GMK in Europe

[tight cypress]

Take a pick https://www.alexotos.com/keyboard-vendor-list/

[sweet skiff]

Thanks guys !

[proud stone]

This sadly doesnt work for me, when holding down the fn key nothingn happens

[upbeat berry]

im unsure what you mean

holding fn wont do anything on its own

[proud stone]

Im trying to use the keys that are shown on the image above - lets say layer 0 is the default keyboard and using layer 1 enables me to use the keyboard as shown above. I want to switch from L0 to L1

[upbeat berry]

so hold fn

or map fn lock onto the layer you want to lock into

and then press fn+that key

[digital elm]

I mean, if you want to use those keys, might as well order a 80HE

[proud stone]

Oh I understand I have to hold it now. How exactly can I bind it to locking in?

[upbeat berry]

wootility

remap

select layer

drag fn lock from special to an empty spot

[proud stone]

I pulled all the keycaps of my full size keyboard and put them on the wooting. Im working rn and 60% is quite inconvinient for work thats why im probably thinking about getting a 80 lmao

Thank you tony :)

[digital elm]

Yeah, when I saw the announcement of the 80HE, I was really happy since I'm a photoshop/premiere pro user

[proud stone]

@upbeat berry I also would like to bind the Fn Lock onto the Main Layer Fn key but once I unbinded the fn key and draged the Fn Lock onto it it stays empty for some reason

[digital elm]

You still have 28 days to take a decision so you have a lot of time to think and they're going to showcase the cases even more during the campaign I think, so you might as well wait to order yours unless you're really impatient as I am

[upbeat berry]

you cant have an fn lock on a non fn layer

[proud stone]

I mean I can still get a 80 one in a few years

[upbeat berry]

you can only fn lock something by holding the FN1 or FN2 key

and then pressing fn lock on that layer

[proud stone]

For some reason that doesnt quite work for me either

[digital elm]

That would also work, but if you're using your 60HE for work, I would also find it inconvenient

[proud stone]

Doesnt lock in when I press Fn Hold while holding Fn on the bottom right

[upbeat berry]

screenshot of the entire wootility window please

[upbeat berry]

save to keyboard

[proud stone]

Oh my god I'm sorry for being this stupid

Yea its working now awesome thank you

[buoyant solstice]

[heady agate]

I was having a look around but can't seem to find it, was the front height of the 80HE mentioned?

[winter coral]

too much 60he in 80he channel

[digital elm]

I think you're looking for this

[heady agate]

yes ty

was making my way down the page rn but I'm not know for my wit

also, I'm curious to see how this is gonna fit on a silkscreen

[winged pelican]

this is actually really high, 2cm wtf
i should've picked up a wrist rest 😓

[upbeat berry]

im unsure what you mean by silkscreen

[buoyant solstice]

We're not silk screening names on the PCB?

[heady agate]

isn't that what they call printing the PCB?

ah ok kek

I’ve never had one but still ordered one. Also, you’ll be able to change your order during the campaign I think, and you may be able to add a wrist rest (not sure tho) and if you’re not able to change your order at all when they make the change, you might hit wooting support with an email

[river wharf]

First time using HE switches must be really hard to get used to

[digital elm]

"On occasion" doesn't seem usual to you

[buoyant solstice]

[digital elm]

A lil plugin with vencord and the work is done

[drifting shuttle]

anyone ever try low profile keycaps on their Wootings? How's it feel?

[buoyant solstice]

Low profile keycaps don't make the stems on the switches any shorter. so... I assume they would feel like typing on flat keycaps that wobble on top of a switch?

[light escarp]

From my experience (without the wooting) It doesnt wobble as anticipated

Its actually better than the normal keycaps LOL somehow

[light escarp]

You can give it a try but id say It wont wobble and its gonna have a consistent feeling

But idk about the space bar tho and the rest, since You'd still need a hybrid either way,

Like a mixture of Flats and normals, but idk man ima let you decide

[drifting shuttle]

interesting lol. k thanks doods. Yeah I just saw a low profile MX set when browsing and thought, what if this worked on my Wooting. Saw it on etsy.

says cherry mx but yeah. Looks weird.

[buoyant solstice]

Yup - Classic mushroom syndrome. So much air 😄

[light escarp]

Well lmk how it is

The looks are 1 thing but the consistency is more important LOOL

[drifting shuttle]

ya for sure. Haven't decided yet.

[light escarp]

Ye sure

[drifting shuttle]

Most likely will just transfer my Lekker keycaps over lol. Think these are high quality PBT keycaps.

Just a matter of jade vs raptor lekker stem vs Lekker v2 for wobble purposes. Not sure which switches to use. Will wait for people testing that.

[light escarp]

Ye

[quasi crater]

does anyone know how many kg the PCR 80he is?

[buoyant solstice]

The total weight of the keyboard is listed on the 80HE landing page. Scroll down 🙂

[quasi crater]

ohh ty i found it 😄

[cedar hound]

So what is it, I‘m lazy??

[quasi crater]

PCR ABS: 790 grams
Zinc alloy: 2160 grams

I dont know what to pick... 🤣

[lyric nymph]

get both

evilKermit

[quasi crater]

I took the black PCR one and travel case 😃

[lyric nymph]

nice

[cedar hound]

My old full size Razer Keyboard was 1.4kg, and that was pretty heavy already. I‘m looking forward to feeling the zinc model.

[quasi crater]

i got the role now, the most important perk xD

im actually really happy they included a switch pack, because i wanted to try both switches 😄

[static sky]

Hello, ive never bought a wooting product before, im thinking about pre ordering the 80he but i was wondering how accurate are they when it comes to shipping dates?

[tough igloo]

Why do i see online so many angry people complaining about the 80HE even tho its not released yet

[static sky]

What are they mad about

[tough igloo]

The 80% and weird layout rather than 75%

[static sky]

If not for the lack of arrow keys i woulda went for the 60%

[buoyant solstice]

It is the best possible estimate we can provide - But given how we're still in preproduction, there could be delays later down the line. If that happens, we will of course inform folks.

[static sky]

Do these delays usually happen with all products? i just want to know what im getting into, can i expect it to be delivered by this year at least?

[nova nexus]

The 60HE Founders' campaign started in October with estimated deliveries the following April, ended up with first deliveries in June.
The UwU Founders' campaign started in April with estimated deliveries the following July, ended up with first deliveries in September.

[nova nexus]

People like to complain, especially the "vocal minority"
There seem to be a great many people who accept the layout as-is and placed their orders 🙂

[red heart]

I like the layout

Seems to include exactly what i need and no more 👍

[stuck grove]

Same here, didn't need the numpad but still love the function keys for coding. PERFECT size.

[red heart]

My current wooting one has a few keys i do not use and the 80he will get rid of those for me

[static sky]

Thats not bad at all, now i just need to figure out the difference between all the options on the website, any idea when the ore order window is closing?

[red heart]

15th

[static sky]

April?

[red heart]

Yes

[static sky]

Alright thanks

[red heart]

So you‘ve got time

[nova nexus]

The preorder window will not close

[static sky]

Yeah i wanted to do a lil more research because im not good with keyboards

[nova nexus]

But at some point the first batch will be full, and future orders will get allocated to the second batch delivering a month later

[static sky]

Even better, thanks

[tough igloo]

So the first batch will be when? It mentioned Mid July is it the latest date it will be shipped?

[buoyant solstice]

#🌟│wooting80he message

[tough igloo]

I see

Up until when can i revoke my pre-order?

[buoyant solstice]

Up until the point at which the order is ready to ship out, and is submitted to be fulfilled at our warehouse.

[static sky]

Will the zinc alloy version ship around the same time as base?

[tough igloo]

I see

[buoyant solstice]

Everything should ship at the same time.

[tough igloo]

Why is the Zinc Alloy even so expensive

[static sky]

Bet ty

Idk but if it feels heavier and more premium then i want it

[buoyant solstice]

Metal cases are not cheap to cast. In terms of material or labour.

[tough igloo]

But there isnt any actual benefit or is there?

[static sky]

And a free travel case

[upbeat berry]

its mostly sound and weight

[buoyant solstice]

It's a metal case. It won't make you a better gamer. It's just bling.

[upbeat berry]

some people prefer how the keyboard sound gets changed by the metal case and some prefer just having a heavier keyboard

some even both

[stuck grove]

☝️ This is what made me get the zinc

[upbeat berry]

i mean the travel case is available standalone for less

[tough igloo]

Even changes the sound okay

[upbeat berry]

there is no objective better

[static sky]

My mind is always fixed on heavier = higher quality

[upbeat berry]

acoustics is a preference thing

everyone will have a different "better"

[brisk oxide]

when is shipping to uk expected for, ik its q3/q4 but is that same for interantional shipping

[stuck grove]

Yeah pretty much same boat, just "feels" better i guess

[upbeat berry]

all at the same time

[brisk oxide]

ty

[upbeat berry]

thats always the goal for our launches

a keyboards sound doesnt come down to 1 component

its a mix of all the components and their properties in terms of sound propogation and modification

even the table its on can change it

or having a deskmat under it

[tough igloo]

Is there a big difference between the 60HE+ and the 80HE in terms of performance?

[upbeat berry]

besides the higher polling rate and thus also scanrate no

[wind tiger]

Absolutely is

[tough igloo]

Is it very noticable?

[upbeat berry]

the table still reflects sound

[wind tiger]

Even with a deskmat

[upbeat berry]

the mounting system doesnt mean it takes out something from changing the sound

the mounting system itself is just another cog in the whole changing the sound thing

[wind tiger]

Eh, definitely reduces it vs a rigid top mount

[static sky]

Is there a difference besides the color and the fact that they dont come pre installed?

[tough igloo]

Is the difference very noticable? I mean I read about Rappy Snappy and >1ms reaction time vs 0.125ms

[upbeat berry]

no

[upbeat berry]

i dont think anyone can actively notice 8khz over 1khz

by actively notice i mean you could always pick the 8khz board in a blind test

its more like more fps where there is a very slight edge you will gain in the very most top of videogame skillceilings

and those small advantages are usually what can decide a match

[tough igloo]

So if im like ultra bottom tier in CS GO it will just be absolutely unnoticable

[stuck grove]

At that point it might be other things causing the issue, like gamesense, aim, etc

[tough igloo]

No i should go ahead and blame my current keyboard 🤡

[upbeat berry]

having played csgo at a sort of mid tier in their ingame ranking system at LEM... i think rappy snappy and rapid trigger are way bigger of a difference than purely going from 1khz to 8khz

[stuck grove]

my mistake, yes 😂

[tough igloo]

What did Rappy Snappy even actually do i didnt quite get it what it does on the website

[tough igloo]

[soft quarry]

keyboard is not gonna make you pro LULE

[upbeat berry]

you link 2 keys lets say A and D. whenever you press A or D deeper than the counterpart it gets immediately send as pressed while the counterpart becomes unpressed

[tough igloo]

I would like to get back into CS but im a high elo league player

[upbeat berry]

i think rappy snappy has uses outside of fps

in general makes movement feel a lot more smooth imo

[uncut oriole]

man I want this keyboard now

[sleek pelican]

yes it is

i am become pro

[upbeat berry]

no

we dont want anyone to think a simple keyboard purchase makes them a pro

[stuck grove]

But we can cope🥺

[upbeat berry]

equipment helps to raise your personal skill ceiling but you wont just become a pro because of it

[sleek pelican]

destroyer of noob

[upbeat berry]

its about speed, consistency and accuracy

you can counterstrafe in FPS games on any keyboard

[tough igloo]

I purchased the Keyboard anyway but good to know what its used for now

[ebon sluice]

I was a pro before and with the Wooting I pretty much walk on water

[sleek pelican]

not on my old membrane one with jam stuck in the wasd area

[upbeat berry]

odd that they all choose our keyboards then

[tough igloo]

Yeah ive seen quite a lot of good players use wooting keyboards to be fair

[stuck grove]

Tenz loves wooting

[soft quarry]

you was there iis a dif

[sleek pelican]

well why wouldnt you use a wooting if you could afford it

[upbeat berry]

if you look at the pro scene of any fps you will see our keyboard being used despite us not being a sponsor. its not just more or less noticable... its so noticable pros choose to buy a keyboard from us over using their free sponsor keyboard

[hidden crest]

^

[ebon sluice]

being able to walk on water means you're a god... pro's.. pfft

[soft quarry]

still

[tough igloo]

On cam

[hidden crest]

Valorant scene is filled with wootings lmao

[tough igloo]

[hidden crest]

% going up each day

[upbeat berry]

yeah we just are literally 4th and the percentage is not far off of the razer huntsman

[hidden crest]

lol

[ebon sluice]

how many of those pros are obligated to use their 10yr old tech

[vapid storm]

none whatsoever. CS players are just slow to change

[sleek pelican]

i wonder how the 80he will compare to the 60he sales after a few years

[vapid storm]

also there are very few wootings at the major this time around

prosettings lists streamers and ex pro players as well there

[ebon sluice]

surely you have to if you're sponsored by Logitech etc

[sleek pelican]

cs players love playing on terrible resolutions for some reason aswell

[vapid storm]

this is not true, players are free to choose their peripherals and have been for a good while

[upbeat berry]

yeah like who are these guys like kennyS, NBK or KRIMZ

[ebon sluice]

fair enough although that makes zero sense

[upbeat berry]

no one ever heard of those noobs

[vapid storm]

retired, washed and benched, washed

[upbeat berry]

kennyS using a twoHE? fuck that guy

[sleek pelican]

but why do lots of pros play black bars lol

[stuck grove]

the list keeps going...

[swift meteor]

I guess a bit off-topic - but how many switches are in the free switch pack that is given as a gift for being a founder for 80HE? I'm thinking of getting another 60HE module and if there are enough switches in that free "80HE founders switch pack" I could actually find use for them 🙂

[fallen epoch]

90 switches in a pack

[vapid storm]

valarante I'm sure

[stuck grove]

this is val

[upbeat berry]

well they are listed as pros. take it up with the website most people use as their source of truth for this kinda stuff

[vapid storm]

btw you can't say nbk and krimz to be nonames lol

[fallen epoch]

Tony, am i a pro?

[upbeat berry]

ok and im glad their customers of ours

[vapid storm]

elige and floppy are wooting users

[icy cosmos]

Is that data of the pro TEAMS or just CS2 players? ( Around 31 players in that list)

[upbeat berry]

they can gladly buy another wooting

[vapid storm]

you must be new to the game

[sleek pelican]

wooting is very popular for fortnite competetive cause they also use the analogue wasd joystick inputs

[upbeat berry]

i spotted a lier

[vapid storm]

hahahah wtf

[upbeat berry]

ok yeah every major sure

[vapid storm]

krimz and nbk both are major winners

krimz is still active in fnatic, but they haven't been hot for a few years now. nbk got benched and is looking for a team, but he's not going back to the top ever again that's for sure

[static sky]

All this about pros but im getting one to play story mode games

[fallen epoch]

Real

[tight cypress]

Insulting?

[vapid storm]

you either are, or you have a memory of a goldfish

[tight cypress]

Bruh... I'm not into e-sports scene at all, playing CS casually, and I know very well who NBK and kennyS are

[upbeat berry]

i would say NBK and KRIMZ are equally legends

[vapid storm]

definitely

[upbeat berry]

its either you have a very selective memory and definition of legends or you lied about when you started to follow the cs pro scene

[wind tiger]

all the good cs pros made mice

[sleek pelican]

while we talking cs, whats all ur fav weapon skins?

[wind tiger]

that is how you recognize them

[sleek pelican]

looks alone

[wind tiger]

the sensei
almost all the zowie mice
heaton even made a whole brand in addition to the EC

[red heart]

Me, personally, i started following the cs scene in the 1970s

[alpine lichen]

for which weapon

[sleek pelican]

any

[sage hollow]

pink ddpat awp

[sleek pelican]

i like emphorasaur-s

[alpine lichen]

i guess all the butterfly gems

[sleek pelican]

its funny

[red heart]

Sand dune

P250

[vapid storm]

anyway current relevant pro players in cs who use wooting are:
elige, floppy, demqq, sdy, twistzz, kscerato (not doing so good right now), jks
honorable mentions:
afro, oSee, fang, patsi, k0nfig

[upbeat berry]

(btw the guy just got banned for sending unsolicited DM invites to other servers)

[icy cosmos]

Hum.. this is turning into a Ferrari vs Lambo discussion. Why does it matter if the pro player is using the keybord or not?

[vapid storm]

rip

[sleek pelican]

sand dune 250 is cool

[wind tiger]

[tight cypress]

rip

[red heart]

[upbeat berry]

and now he deleted the DMs for some reason

[wind tiger]

totally not sus

[sleek pelican]

pink ddpat awps pretty cool, not my style but its a nice one

[vapid storm]

it's relevant since in a way it's a proof of the kb being good enough for pro players, and what we discussed was how cs players are slow to adapt to changes

[tight cypress]

He got hacked for 2 minutes, happens to everyone

[red heart]

People want to use that their favorite pro used cause they think itll magically make them become good at the game and get them out of bronze

[vapid storm]

that too I guess

[tight cypress]

To get out of silver in CS you just have to shoot in general direction of enemy

[icy cosmos]

Slow to adapt isn´t the issue. There´re contracts that needs to be reviewed and approved. The sole reason why you can´t use what you want when you got a sponsor contract that dictate the terms

[vapid storm]

as I said cs players are not obligated to use sponsored peripherals

[upbeat berry]

almost sure it depends on the sponsor contract

[vapid storm]

https://prosettings.net/blog/about-sponsorships-in-esports/

[sage hollow]

depends when and where rlly

[icy cosmos]

I guess you live in your own reality

[vapid storm]

maybe take a look at the link and then look at player's peripherals and their team's sponsors

if you're not in on the scene, shut the fuck up

[icy cosmos]

how do you know that I am not from the scene?

[vapid storm]

you clearly demonstrated that already

[tough igloo]

Heated discussions

[icy cosmos]

You´re true.. I am actually behind the scene to be correct

[sage hollow]

🍿

[midnight iron]

this is a very confusing conversation to read through after the deleted messages

[upbeat berry]

sadly couldnt select no messages to delete

ban dialog forces at elast 1 hour

ah crap

i just noticed they made the dont delete any option not be the first below the dropdown... it is on the drop down

great ui design

[midnight iron]

who even got banned?

[upbeat berry]

jilj

[midnight iron]

ah that guy. The one who wanted to start a revolution over the logo on the back of the plastic case

[hidden crest]

Discord UI on top

[upbeat berry]

i had no issues with their discussions and arguments they had in here with me or others... so idk why they choose to send unsolicited dm invites

[icy cosmos]

@vapid storm here is a behind the scene of a tournament.

[vapid storm]

ooh cool, you work for esl?

[icy cosmos]

Not as cool as "The major.". but the same teams that are competing.

[icy cosmos]

I worked for one of the sponsors 🤣

[vapid storm]

nice nice

[icy cosmos]

with full access

[steady escarp]

that logo looks pretty good

[upbeat berry]

how would this validate knowing anything about the scene or sponsorships smh /s

[vapid storm]

lol don't think it does, but cool nonetheless

[nova nexus]

Oi chill out man, ain't no internet argument worth getting all up in arms over

[upbeat berry]

were all FBI agents anyway

[icy cosmos]

Good question. I am just sharing my 2 cents. You can belive what you want.

[vapid storm]

that's true, I just have to eat first

[nova nexus]

Have a snickers 😛

[vapid storm]

having a pizza

[upbeat berry]

nono all good i do believe

[nova nexus]

Even better 😎

[icy cosmos]

One streamer even have a strange deal that during stream you have to have the sponsor headset. while IRL events you don´t need to. So its all about the person/ Team/ sponsors to set up a "Sponsor deal"

[pastel dust]

Wow

[buoyant solstice]

Makes sense. Streams are often a way to relax and just have fun. You're essentially marketing your "brand" while doing so.

[upbeat berry]

maybe we should have branded stuff shown in our bi-weekly streams on the wooting channel

[vapid storm]

yeah of course it will depend on the deal, but still the fact remains that sponsors are not going to force the top of the top players to use their mouse or keyboard. headsets and other things, especially while just streaming or playing online tournaments is a different thing. on lan tournaments they use their own iem's anyway, which are hidden under the nc-headsets

[sage hollow]

i had to use sponsored peripherals for interviews and games with cam needed. rest was fine to use whatever

[vapid pecan]

'To be revealed during the campaign ' is rappy snappy?

[icy cosmos]

Just like any other business. The higher level you´re the more you can decide on your own terms. But at the same time. The bigger money there´s to make. So its a balance.

[vapid storm]

I'll give you that

my team was sponsored by steelseries way back in cs 1.6 times and I happily used my qpad lul

[icy cosmos]

I can only say that´s its big money in CSGO/ CS2.

[sweet skiff]

Does the gateron jade really need lubbing ? And what is the best lub on the market atm ?

[tight cypress]

Not really; Krytox stuff, 205g0 for example

[sweet skiff]

thanks !

[tough igloo]

Actually ive ordered the 80HE but the Key Caps are not assembled yet do i need any special tools?

[buoyant solstice]

Ten fingers help.

[icy cosmos]

Anyways I have choosen Wooting after a long wait for the 80HE. I am voting with my own money to support a company and products that I belive in.

[upbeat berry]

i do believe 2 fingers to be the hard minimum

[hidden crest]

forgot to add the wrist rest to my order

[stoic merlin]

@upbeat berryhi are u here?

[upbeat berry]

email us at [e-mail] @hidden crest

[idle depot]

I’m all out of luck then…

[hidden crest]

ty ty ❤️

[stoic merlin]

may i know please why jilj was banned? i just missclicked somehow and sent to u an invite to a server where i am no one also that server was irrelevant with keyboards and wooting.. it was just lineage 2 game server which i sent to you accidentally

i am in this server more then a year and never had any problem like this

[upbeat berry]

unsolicited server invites which remained unexplained in dms for over 10minutes

[stoic merlin]

it was a missclick! just 1 dm to you...

[upbeat berry]

2

[stoic merlin]

it was a misslick dude

it happens

[upbeat berry]

i am aware its just odd that they remained for ages.... and then suddenly vanished when the ban occured

[stoic merlin]

wanna see my dm history or what? 🙂 i can send u a screen! it was sent only to you somehow.. wanna answer to you and it sent to u an invite somehow

[upbeat berry]

either way ill let you know that you currently are ban evading and ill open up the discussion internally on how to proceed with the ban case

[digital elm]

He just told you that you deleted them, so you’ll have no history to show obviously

[stoic merlin]

bc it was accidently

[tough igloo]

Whats going on wtf

[stoic merlin]

i saw and delete it bro

why he need an invite to l2 server channel?

really cant understand whats going on..

[lime falcon]

unlucky

[digital elm]

I won’t interfere, I’ll let you see that with Tony

[stoic merlin]

@upbeat berrydude, i got just a ban for nothing my friend

[digital elm]

Stop, you’re digging your own grave, you ban evading, that’s already enough to ban you on your second account and not give you a second chance

[stoic merlin]

@digital elmdude i saw in the chat history that i have sent to him invites somehow.. and i deleted it.. what should a do? keep that invites for him? if that was accidently sent?

i am here in chis channel more then a year.. cant understand how i could get banned for something like this...

[digital elm]

Read his message bro, he’s going to discuss it with other people and maybe unban you

If he wants to discuss it, he might send you a private message or someone from the staff/open a ticket and maybe you’ll get a chance to explain yourself, but #🌟│wooting80he isn’t the place

[stoic merlin]

@digital elm i see dude, but i really cant understand what to discuss there.. i just sent somehow, accidently an link to irrelevant discord channel.. i am sorry for that but it was just a mistake

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/shhh-shush-quiet-gif-8316632

[upbeat berry]

well for the time being as we discuss this and since i want to be able to communicate any verdict with you you will get a timeout @stoic merlin until we internally decided what to do. it doesnt matter how long someone has been part of our community or if they bought something with us or not. everyone will have to follow the same rules and gets the same treatment.

[pastel dust]

Will there be a sample recording of the zinc alloy will sound like?

[buoyant solstice]

At some point, definitely.

[pastel dust]

Awesome!

[valid comet]

Thoccy

[digital elm]

During campaign you think?

[valid comet]

Hi gang

[buoyant solstice]

Certainly. Just can't tell you wether we're talking days, weeks, or a month

[digital elm]

Either way that’s fine, if we’re getting the zinc sound test, that’s all I want

[valid comet]

How are you guys doing

[digital elm]

I’m still hesitant abt white or raw zinc tho, I ordered white for now

[digital elm]

Good good, now that the chat is clean

[pastel dust]

Raw zinc

😂

[digital elm]

As long as it lasts

[hidden crest]

cute claudette drawing 😂

yeah id go for white over raw too personally

[digital elm]

Idk, I ordered white zinc with white wrist rest, but I’m still hesitant

[digital elm]

Ty ty, not mine tho, but yeah I like it (shitty ui pack I believe)

[zealous oak]

join us raw zinc gang

[hidden crest]

😂

[digital elm]

Maybe I’m going to join the white gang, idk, I’ll wait for other photos of every case and I’ll maybe chance my order

Raw looks kinda odd tho

[zealous oak]

Some photos needed definitely but I think it will look cool

[umbral pawn]

Raw is just gray

I like black and white, white is nice gives more contrast to a lot of keycaps and RGB

[zealous oak]

or metal looking

and maybe I will order ghost in the future

[tough igloo]

Eh i paid with Credit Card my 80HE and usually its status is processing until the order is shipped does the same apply here?

[buoyant solstice]

Apply where?

[tough igloo]

Anything i buy always has the status processing until the item is actually shipped to my address. Im wondering if the same applies to wooting or if its actually being taken off my Credit Card anytime soon.

[hidden crest]

For me it was taken right away

[buoyant solstice]

We charge immediately on checkout.

[digital elm]

You should be seeing this in the wooting hub

[tough igloo]

Let me see

[stuck grove]

It took 10ish min to show up for me

I really hope i don't get WRECKED by import cost, South Africa is notorious for its steep import duties. 🥺

[hidden crest]

oh yeah rates can go really high there

[tough igloo]

Also says Placed for me

It is paid like there is no issue im not sure if its some purchase protection from my Bank

[stuck grove]

It can sometimes be more then the actual thing you are ordering. So hoping not

[buoyant solstice]

Not all banks can manage a same pay payment. Charges are reserved for a period of time, until the transaction is actually done. Some banks like Sofort can take up to three bank days to actually do it.

[tough igloo]

Also i get the keycaps seperately do i need any special tools to plug them on?

[buoyant solstice]

Keycaps are just "Push in with fingers"

ANSI prebuilt keyboards come preinstalled. Everything else is "bring your own fingers" and keycaps in a box.

[tough igloo]

HAHA

[tough igloo]

Idk.. i believe im not qualified enough to assemble the keyboard.

In the US there would probably a way to sue the sht out of you guys

[upbeat berry]

uh no?

[tough igloo]

What if someone without hands has bought the keyboard

[upbeat berry]

why would they need a keyboard

[digital elm]

Broo, look up tutorials, it’s really easy, I’ve been watching tutorials for the past month and with a hotswap PCB, you can’t go easier

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/sucks-to-be-them-hunter-franklin-the-oval-i-dont-wanna-be-them-right-now-i-feel-sorry-for-them-gif-22834178

[tough igloo]

And you have not warned minority groups without hands enough

[upbeat berry]

person without hands buys item designed for having hands with fingers

[tough igloo]

What if they wanna feel included even without hands i mean its all about equality isnt it?

[digital elm]

Bet they’re using a fork

[tough igloo]

With their invisible hands?

[digital elm]

👍

[tough igloo]

I mean ive already seen people play with their toes on a PC

Even quite successfully

[fallen epoch]

speedrunners

[tough igloo]

Thats a small minded statement

Feet are a viable option

[zealous oak]

Then use it

[upbeat berry]

you can assemble keycaps with feet

so no issues there

[lyric nymph]

i still don't understand what the yap is about

[tough igloo]

There is probably a lot of other things i can do with my feet too if i can assemble an entire keyboard with my feet

[upbeat berry]

you dont assemble the entire keyboard

just the keycaps

[lyric nymph]

if you don't want to assemble the keyboard, why don't get the pre assembled one?

[tough igloo]

I know but can you imagine the precision and concentration it takes to assemble like dozens of Keycaps?

[upbeat berry]

and they are literally just pushed onto a stem

[tough igloo]

With your feet

[upbeat berry]

it doesnt take any of either

even with my feet

i can prob do it half drunk

[tough igloo]

That should be part of your marketing

[pseudo parrot]

its like lego blocks, just push

[lyric nymph]

HUH~2

[digital elm]

Guys guys guys, new wooting concept pedals for people that are impaired but with the wooting technology 🤯

[tough igloo]

Holy

[fallen epoch]

rapid pedals?

[tough igloo]

Pedals with keys on

[lyric nymph]

rappy feety?

[tough igloo]

Precision.. Nail for nail

[digital elm]

I mean, it could even be sold to sim racers (like me)

[tough igloo]

Simulating how F1 drivers press buttons with their toes?

[buoyant solstice]

[digital elm]

I’ve sent you smh Tony, bet you’ve seen it already but just in case

[half raptor]

Is the zinc alloy version overprized bros?

[tight cypress]

Not really

[buoyant solstice]

It's a free market.

[zealous oak]

that answer is up to yourself

[half raptor]

300 bucks for a keyboard?

what cost a similar product?

[tight cypress]

For a premium keyboard with metal case? Seems fair

[half raptor]

interesting

[digital elm]

I don’t think you can really find equivalent products because of their technology

[half raptor]

I paid 50 bucks for my cherry mx 🙂

[tight cypress]

Yeah... Premium keyboard

[half raptor]

If I am not gayming do I have advantages of the technology?

[nova nexus]

You could compare it to the prebuilt plastic, and you'd see a $100 premium for getting a zinc case.
Alternatively you could compare it to having something like that custom CNC's for several hundred dollars.

[half raptor]

I only want a premium keyboard

[digital elm]

$50 isn’t premium

[digital elm]

You’re gaming but you don’t have wooting technologies which do matter when either you care abt optimisation/you’re playing competitively

[half raptor]

are you guys paid by wooting to make the price tag more reasonable?

[verbal solar]

💀💀💀

[fallen epoch]

what

[nova nexus]

I'm paid by Wooting, yes

Buy more keyboards

[half raptor]

I do not play gaymes competitive atm. I like solo gaymes

[red heart]

Nope just coping because we already paid the price

[upbeat berry]

https://tenor.com/view/shut-up-and-take-my-money-futurama-fry-take-my-money-money-gif-15195954

[digital elm]

Nop, we’re buying during campaign to make the keyboard for us a bit cheaper but even without the free stuff the keyboard is still fairly priced

[half raptor]

made my day thx bro

[half raptor]

ok thanks

[buoyant solstice]

[digital elm]

Then for solo games you won’t really feel the difference, $50 will do the job

[upbeat berry]

real talk yes you could feel a difference. the question is if you personally feel like you need it or not

the advantages of rapid trigger and rappy snappy arent some multiplayer exclusive thing

[half raptor]

whcih keyboard would yu recommend then keychron?

[fallen epoch]

rapid trigger has def given me more response in rhythm games especially

[sullen sand]

Wooting sends me uwus and hearts to promote their products

[half raptor]

bro I do not care for gaymes. I like to play portal or talos principle like gaymes. But I do not have the time to play competitive

[upbeat berry]

that is still games

what

im so confused

[verbal solar]

I think he cares for games not gaymes

[tight cypress]

If you don't care about gaming that much - I'm getting 80HE for work, currently using 2HE here, it's just so nice to type on...

[half raptor]

yeah but is it worth it to pay 300 bucks for a keyboard if I am not playing competitve? I also do not want to adjust every key for every gayme manually

[digital elm]

You already have one, if you play mostly story games that do not benefit from being fast then you should to your keyboard, and if your games would benefit from being fast then I would recommend wooting

[half raptor]

sold bro thx

[dry tundra]

Hello

[zealous oak]

At this point I think he is trolling or being disrespectful on purpose

[sullen sand]

Ok similar product... well there's really none of the market that similar but you can build a keyboard in a metal case for anywhere from $200-2000

[dry tundra]

If I order the wooting keyboard he80 can I change the delivery address later?

[digital elm]

You can do one general setting

[upbeat berry]

i mean before i became woot employee i just bought the keyboards for typing. and since getting one like 5 or 6 years ago i have used the exact same settings for all the stuff and all the few games i do play every now and again

[tight cypress]

Sure, at any time (before shipping), in hub

[hidden crest]

i use it a lot for other things besides gaming it has a lot of uses and the software is super flexable

[sullen sand]

Yes

[nova nexus]

Within the same country, yes

[half raptor]

thank you all for your input. feeling better now

[dry tundra]

Thank you

[digital elm]

You can pay $220 and get base keyboard, you don’t HAVE to get the zinc case also

[half raptor]

I thought I did a mistake by ordering a gayming keboard even if I do not game that much

[digital elm]

But that’s up to you

[verbal solar]

Is support usually this backlogged or is it just the 80HE founder period?

[hidden crest]

probably just because of the 80HE

[half raptor]

but with the free case it is 260 and then the zinc one is the better deal

[sullen sand]

At stock the Wooting feel and build quality is superior to all of the other keyboards on the market - there's a reason the big companies are taking note and trying to copy

[buoyant solstice]

We were a tad backlogged before the campaign.

[upbeat berry]

all good. we have a lot of people even using our keyboards as digital instruments for music production

[fallen forge]

i do not play games competitively, but the main reason for me was contactless switches

i am a fun of linear switches and going contactless is a nice upgrade

[lime falcon]

gayming 👍

[river wharf]

alpaca silent user here, I love linear

[verbal solar]

I’m lowkey curious why you keep saying “gayming”

[digital elm]

Yeah, maybe zinc is the better deal idk

[lime falcon]

[zealous oak]

Ye, me too, he keeps writing it that way

[half raptor]

spent too much time in the chans went into muscle memory. I do not want to offend anyone in here

[fallen forge]

after that i've also grew to love adjustable actuation point, most of my keys are set to 1mm while stuff like enter, space, etc are at 1.2mm, rapid trigger is another nice bonus

[zealous oak]

Sure sure

[verbal solar]

👍🏾

[river wharf]

i play maplestory, need lots of weaving to dodge so rappy snappy seems very useful

[half raptor]

I am looking forward to my new premium keyboard then and keep the order up. Time for my Cherry MX to retire soon 🙂

[digital elm]

(Soon being 5-6 months)

[half raptor]

they said july.. but I can wait. I have enough keyboards to type on until then

[digital elm]

I’d advise you to link your discord to the wooting so you can show to everyone your beautiful role

[molten spindle]

Test

[sullen sand]

Worth the wait... I have literally 0 reason to buy the 80HE, I already have a Wooting but I'm buying it because why not, Wooting the goats 🐐

[hidden crest]

I miss my arrow keys so ill be happy 😂

[half raptor]

I kind of not care for this digital goodies, they should have put in a palmrest for people who care more for real stuff

[red heart]

This is me also

However i do need to lube my wooting one

[river wharf]

I purchased before creating an account, after creating an account I tried to transfer the order but it says it couldn't find it, oh well

[digital elm]

You do also get free stuff, the discord role being a bonus

[fallen forge]

there is a free switch pack for that

[red heart]

But i‘m not sure how scary lubing flaretech switches is

[sullen sand]

It will go onto the account automatically if you used the same email

[red heart]

Your account needs to be made with the same email used for the purchase

[sullen sand]

Just be patient, may take an hour or two

Or 5

[digital elm]

When ordering during campaign, you get free switch pack, discord role and a free travel case (I may be missing something)

[upbeat berry]

travel case is for zinc cases only but yes

[fallen forge]

case with zinc

[blissful olive]

No joke the keyboard i use right now is the Logitech K120, Im in desperate need of an upgrade

[digital elm]

I think he wants to order the zinc case, but yeah true, thanks for correcting me

[river wharf]

yes my registered account and email used for purchase is the same, this is what I got
looks like someone forgot to parse the error

[sullen sand]

We are here for you if you need emotional support

[lyric nymph]

I'm with the Corsair K65, in the same position as u

[zealous oak]

That is going to be a hell of an upgrade

[sullen sand]

It will be done automatically

[blissful olive]

❤️❤️

[sullen sand]

You don't need to transfer the order if you purchased then made an account after with the same email

[river wharf]

I guess i just need to wait

[buoyant solstice]

No that's just how we roll.

[verbal solar]

i had the same problem u just have to wait

[upbeat berry]

yeah the error output is sometimes not parsed correctly but in general it can take a few minutes up to an hour for an order to be imported. if you received the order confirmation email on the same email address its just a waiting game

[icy cosmos]

I hope someone can answer me this. How can I change my order to add a case? like this. Because when I first rushed to order in the first 10min there was no clear way to add more case option. Now its possible if its done in the right order. - More case = is not an option or add on according to Wooting webshop logic.

[pastel dust]

It happened to me too..just wait a few hours it shld be updated

[river wharf]

thanks for confirming, would be nicer if the keyboard arrived before it's fixed

[sullen sand]

Just email them to add a case to the order

[icy cosmos]

Been waiting for an answer since launch.

[sullen sand]

It's fine there's plenty of time

[icy cosmos]

I know.

[sullen sand]

Just be patient 🙂

[verbal solar]

wdym case?

[icy cosmos]

just putting it out there since you can´t add the case normally

[pastel dust]

Same here..wanted to add raw zinc case to my order too

[icy cosmos]

I bought the Zink alloy prebuild and I want to add all kinds of cases (colors and different materials) that is avaliable in this founders campaign.

[verbal solar]

oh alr

[icy cosmos]

that was not an option either... somehow?

[tight cypress]

You can do that, cases are available in store
https://wooting.io/product/wooting-80he-pcr-abs-case
https://wooting.io/product/wooting-80he-zinc-alloy-case

[pastel dust]

Nah..I ordered the prebuilt non zinc version. Wanted to add one more case to swap and it comes with carrying case why not? 😂

[pastel dust]

Hope can add to my current order so it won’t incurred additional shipping

[icy cosmos]

if you go through the normal route to preorder the 80HE founders campaign you can´t add any case

[digital elm]

I think, you do your build and then you go in the shop and add cases in your cart from the links that you sent and then you shoul be good and have multiple cases in your cart

[icy cosmos]

only options that shows up is this

[tight cypress]

Sure, those are add-ons to keyboard
Case is hardly an addon
But it's still available

[buoyant solstice]

You already have the case included. That's why it isn't showing.

https://wooting.io/product/wooting-travel-case-80he
You can add an additional one here manually for any non-zinc cases.

[digital elm]

You already have 2 cases and a travel that is included with the zinc case

[sullen sand]

The option for the case is only in the module purchase, to buy an extra case with the pre built version you have to go to a separate page just for the cases

The website assumes you don't want an extra case option when you buy a pre built

Which is the case for 99.9% of purchases

[verbal solar]

so will i get a Travel Case? i orderd wooting 80he zinc alloy and the travel case didnt show in the order

[fallen epoch]

youll get one

[verbal solar]

alr ty

[sullen sand]

All zinc alloy cases come with a travel case

[icy cosmos]

I don´t want a Travel case I want a PCR plastic case or another Zink alloy case

[buoyant solstice]

For that you'll have to email us.

[icy cosmos]

I have done that since launch day.

[buoyant solstice]

Then we'll help you with that asap.

We remove the switches.

Whenever we get around to it.

[digital elm]

Because of many "glitches" they I think will need to take a look at every order, thus you won't get free stuff

[sullen sand]

You'll get no switches and your keyboard won't work

[fallen epoch]

i eated it

[icy cosmos]

I still have not gotten any reply yet. I am not in a hurry but I would like to sort it out ASAP

[digital elm]

You have weeks ahead, you'll be fine

[pastel dust]

I received an automated email.

[rapid basalt]

Question, will the 80HE pre assembled be individually tested prior to shipping?

[buoyant solstice]

Please have a modicum of patience. We received over a week's worth of emails in the first 24hours of the 80HE campaign alone. Your order isn't shipping for MONTHS.

[buoyant solstice]

The factory performs automated tests during manufacturing. It won't catch every single potential issue, but that's industry standard.

[icy cosmos]

By fixing this problem on the website.. less people will have problem with it.

Just let people choose what they want to add.

[buoyant solstice]

Our backend techs are working on these issues as fast as they can. It is our problem if someone makes an order with issues, not yours.

[digital elm]

When I saw the countdown go backwards it was funny to me

[sullen sand]

But you can add whatever you want to the order It's not a problem

The case is a separate item to a pre built keyboard so it is not an option and never will be.

[icy cosmos]

Lets go with your logic..

but you end up with the same problem. You can´t add different material of casing to your module?

[sullen sand]

When you order the module you get the option of a case though

[icy cosmos]

Show me

[grim fiber]

before that screen

[icy cosmos]

how to buy 1 Zink alloy case and 1 PCR case

[sullen sand]

You get an option for 1 because there's a special offer included

[icy cosmos]

= 2 case.

[sullen sand]

If you want an extra case you have to go to the case specifc page

[icy cosmos]

I understand that it can be done in that way. But its not how human works.

[sullen sand]

I don't see your issue, 99.9% of people will want 1 case, adding multiple cases as options to the module will just confuse the majority of people rather than your specific purchase

[grim fiber]

https://wooting.io/our-products?category=New found 'em here

[sullen sand]

It's as if you've never ordered multiple items on a website before

Module comes with 1 discounted case

As an option

[midnight iron]

I'm confused. You can just add an extra case under the accessories section in wooting store

[icy cosmos]

How are you supposed to know that at the launch of the campaign? That is why so many people missed it

[sullen sand]

Because you have a brain, you can go to the case page

[midnight iron]

Well I asked in the chat and then did it when campaign started

[icy cosmos]

90% of the people start their purchase from this

[sullen sand]

Yes and you're buying 1 keyboard with 1 case, those who want extra cases go to the case page. Not hard to understand honestly...

[midnight iron]

I don't really see this as some major issue, you can just email them and they'll change the order, or you still have time to run a new order and they can cancel previous one

both have plenty of time when there's months until delivery

[sullen sand]

I see tons of people with orders with multiple cases and only 1 person complaining about there's no multiple case options with the module

[icy cosmos]

I am not saying its hard. I am saying why can´t you add more case options at the "option screen?" or at this screen:

[midnight iron]

They're probably working on exactly that

but remember how they got a billion emails and other things that are on their list to fix from the launch

[icy cosmos]

I know, they´ve said it before..

[midnight iron]

yeah so I don't really see why you keep reposting about it. It doesn't solve anything or progress anything

[sullen sand]

The whole extra case thing is very new to Wooting, you should know this being a member since 2022

[midnight iron]

you just have to wait for them to fix it and get to your email

[sullen sand]

It's not as if it's impossible to add a case to your order, you just need to be patient and wait for them to add it to your order from an email

[icy cosmos]

I was a memeber but I have not bought anything, waiting for 80HE.

[tiny tartan]

Let's flex our emotional intelligence muscle and be more nice to community members

[icy cosmos]

Well I see more people than me is having the same problem so I am upvoting the problem again.

[sullen sand]

I mean we all know the website isn't perfect but Wooting are doing their best, just bare with them 😅

[icy cosmos]

I mean, they have design the 80HE page for a reason and as more order coming in - you wont need to waste time to answer the same question again.

that was my reason to repost.

[midnight iron]

They are aware of the issue and are working on it in the backend. Reposting it over and over won't speed it up

[icy cosmos]

You´re wrong though. the first respons was that the shipping was calculated differently.

[tiny tartan]

I just hope the zinc case won't discolor as fast

[icy cosmos]

So I was told to order 2 orders. from this chat.

The second answer was to make 2 orders and make a support ticket to combine the order into 1.

[midnight iron]

sounds like someone in chat gave you the wrong answer

[icy cosmos]

The third answer was to make a support ticket and wait
