Nono, you can have any combination of UK and/or mac layouts, they're not mutually exclusivce. The UK layout is mainly the shape of the left shift and enter key, whereas the mac layout affects mainly what modifiers are where.

Or just don't Mac?

Right, well both then. You don't get a true UK layout with a Mac keyboard though, " and @ are the wrong way round.

If only. D;

You must know where the keys are now? I've got a few German layout keys on my board but I still know what I need to press.

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Sure, but it's a pain in the arse flicking between Windows and Mac. I've been working with a virtual windows machine at work for the last year or so, and constantly flicking between the 2 results in my getting it wrong half the time.

[TheDR]

Can't you just set the Mac to use Windows formatting?

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Nope.

This is a Mac we're talking about...

This is normally inherent to the UK layout, but it appears that apple doesn't include this aspect of the UK layout to their keyboards.

Multiplicatively, these two requirements are not easily obtained on off-brand keyboards. Some major brands do this, but even then you might have some difficulty finding it, and the price tag will be considerably higher.

My advice is to get a mac-compatible Windows-layout UK keyboard and just swap the modifier keycaps around if necessary (they can be pulled off by hand with minimal effort). Get something with red, brown, or black MX-type switches if you want something that's not clicky. Have a look through this search list for something you might like:

Petroglyph is making a "Not" Command and Conquer Renegade. It looks nice.

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

No single player? That's a hard pass from me.

Renegade was a very interesting game full of potential. With more olish it could've really been something. Colour me intrigued.

Is single player when you can only play with one other player?

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Oh surre.

I am glad they are doing this. Story was so lame compared to first game. Especially considering how amazing the intro of the first game was and second game had a horrible intro.

You can still get it and play the currrent version for what it is, EA7 update will be released in a few days, which will be the last one before they change the entire story.
