You really do not need anything special.  As long as it is comfortable.

Ah yes, I've been looking at that one!

Mostly I'm cheap... and don't want to use one that looks like it's going to transform into a robot!!

I'm thinking I only need a couple of side-buttons for better access to kick and nudge - assuming you can map to keys.

Steelseries Sensei [RAW] just picked it up yesterday, very satisfied so far. Had the Blackadder before that also a great gaming mouse but imo the fucked it up with the Synapse 2.0 (software) so my pick was Steelseries and I didn't regret it. You can also go with some cheaper models like Kinzu or Kana also great gaming mice.

had a 10€ logitech for years, very good, very durable, nothing special.

Then I tried the G400 and I must say for me this mouse was terrible. Compared to the 10€ mouse the buttons were extremely loud and it felt like a5mm gap between buttons and mouse. Also the position of the buttons and the mouse itself felt completely uncomfortable and after a bit playing my fingers started to ache (I have rather long thin hands).

Then I tried the Roccat Savu (40€) and this mouse is perfect for me. Everything is tight and felt right from the beginning and it looks good, not too robot-like.

Revoltec fightmouse


4 dpi modes, 3 sets of 2 macro buttons. It's ok except the center wheel which lacks grip.

I just picked up this same one and so far I'm wholly satisfied with it. I've never had more then two buttons and a wheel and this one is a bit bigger than my last $10 mouse so it fits my hand better. I wouldn't recommend the glossy one if you don't like smudges though.

I use one of those, G400. Cheap, good optical sensor (prefer that to laser), same shape as my old mx510/518. Plenty of DPI (I use default 800 tho).

Post by: Ninja_Khorin on June 19, 2013, 05:46:29 pm
The logo gathers a ton of dirt, though. Same with the MX518(much worse than on the G400). It's why I have a G500 these days. It doesn't have that logo to gather dirt the same way.

I used to really like Razer mouses of which I tried a handful or so, then the Roccat Kone came out and I tried that only like so many others to have the scroll key give up on me. Then I tried Logitech mouse devices for a bit, and though the G series has a good quality feel to it I don't think they are as good for claw and finger grip (which I prefer) as most of the Roccat and Razer mice. Then Roccat launched its improved version of the Roccat Kone (now with a '+' in the name) and like some of Roccat's other products the second generation have mostly outdone the competition in all aspects.

Specs (http://www.roccat.org/Products/Gaming-Mice/ROCCAT-Kone-/)
Review (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olx8BasVdTw)

Best mouse I've ever used, hands down. The (German) quality can be felt in all the parts, nice rubber surface, good responsive keys, metal scroll key for durability, high end stats (like 6000dpi as if you'd ever want to use that much), due to its relative size and shape ergonomic for both claw, finger and palm grip, great software pack with lots of customization options (easy changing of general values, colors or macros and such), clip in weights, surface scanner and a tracking and distance control unit under the mouse.

I've put mine to extensive use for well over three years now and it's as good as the day I bought it. Been using it with the Taito (http://www.roccat.org/Products/Gaming-Mousepads/ROCCAT-Taito-Series/) mousepad.

And it's likely cheaper now that Roccat has released a few mouse devices since (Kone Pure and XTD are probably excellent, too).

mouses/mice/mouse devices  :?

I use that. Partially because of the crazy sensitivity possibilities, partially because no other mouse I've used is that good at changing settings on the fly. Since I tend to have different setups for different games/crpg builds, it works splendidly.

So, this "Steel Series Sensei Raw" has basically crapped out after 6 months, although I've still been using it for a month. It was really good up until then but now it only tracks properly on laminated paper for some reason, and once that gets a bit scratched the pointer starts lagging intermittently. I even had bought the recommended gaming mouse that was apparently made for it but it doesn't track at all on it.

I would RMA it but I looked on the packaging and I don't think it came with any sort of warranty, there's no number to call for the company and I can't be assed giving out my information to another company simply to write an e-mail, I've also heard the customer service is pretty bad anyway.

Any recommendations for good, mostly plain, gaming mice? I was thinking maybe one of the Zowie ones but I'm not too keen on shelling out $50+ on a mouse after this one. I'm looking one for a similar shape and size and a couple side buttons, any help would be appreciated.

I've got the regular Sensei and it's my favorite mouse to date. Hoping it doesn't crap out on me like it did you. o.O

I don't think there's any great chance anything will be wrong with yours. I've only found one or two forum posts with my particular issue and only suggestions like, "did you make sure there's no dust on the laser?"  :rolleyes:

I just don't understand why it will only track properly on laminated paper. I originally used a cloth mat, then one day it stopped working and it would track alright on my wood desk, then it would lag if I moved it too fast so I upped the DPI to compensate.

What is the perfect mousepad for the SteelSeries Sensei?
Specifically for SteelSeries Sensei we recommend the SteelSeries 9HD or SteelSeries 4HD, seeing as these gaming surfaces were researched and developed in parallel with the sensor used in the SteelSeries Sensei and thereby designed to fully support the enhanced tracking capabilities of next-gener ...

I was miffed about buying the $20 4HD for it only to not work at all...

The Steel Series Engine also seemed pretty resource intensive for it was.

Does it transform into an Autobot also?

Edit: Also, when I said "mostly plain", I meant, like, I was kind of disappointed this one glowed unless I installed the software which used ~400 MB of memory.

Way back when I lived with my parents and had disposable income dripping from every orifice, I had a Razer mouse. Can't remember the model. I actually hated it for games, but it turned out to be pretty comfortable for working in photoshop or other art stuff. It died after a few years of use. I still have the Razer eXactMat I bought with it. Nice and heavy so it never slides, really comfortable wrist rest, and it's been worn smooth as all heck from years of gaming. Metal underneath the surface so it's always nice and cold.

My current mouse is a bottom-of-the-line Dell model that came standard issue with office towers in like 2005. The paint on the left and right click has been worn down to bare plastic, and the scroll wheel no longer clicks - it just glides smoothly. I prefer this over all the fancy gaming mouses I've ever tried. Got a few backups too - I used to work at a computer recycling company and there were always piles of mice/keyboards that you could just take home if you needed a few.

I sold mine, after numerus problems with the driver and getting side buttins to work plus I realised it's too small for my hand and my hand hurts like hell after a couple of hours I'm back to Deathadder, Synapse is working fine nao
