After bringing it up I actually stopped playing WOW :) So maybe the price will come down when I get back into the game - but yes let me know how it goes!Quote:

Interested in your feedback though, if anything for a good laugh ;-)
The first feature i look for in any mouse is mouse wheel tilt. I use it for strafe. I use q and e for very important one button actions. I want as many close access keybinds near the WASD as possible. Also, using mouse tilt for strafe makes kitting people and spamming instants ( or shooting them if your a hunter ) very easy. I don't care how many other buttons if has, if no mouse tilt, its not for me 8) I'm using logitech G700 now and its perfect for me. I used a G5 for years!
Have you tried one yet? I have the RAT 7 (which is basically the same mechanicals plus a few buttons) and I don't recall ever noticing any sharp edges. I can't imagine how you'd cut yourself even if it DID have sharp edges assuming you weren't suffering chronic PEBKAC. ;)Quote:

So, I went to the hobby store tonight and they were all out; but, they had some other Tungsten weights so I picked those up instead. Using my current R.A.T. 7 as a model, I carved and shaped these Tungsten weights so that I can attach them to the chassis of this mouse with epoxy (overkill?).
The mouse already comes with 30g of weights so you can adjust that already. Unfortunately, the weight sits near the back of the mouse and not the front. What I carved out tonight weighs more than 30g so we'll see if I can fix my spastic-picking-the-mouse-up-because-i'm-a-gorilla syndrome with these.
If I do like the way that this new Cyborg MMO mouse feels then I think I'll test the weights out on my current R.A.T. 7 before epoxying them on something that's still under warranty and may need to be returned. ;)
Most of the higher-end Microsoft mice have tilt wheels and have for quite a while now. I don't usually use them as that movement isn't something I've found terribly useful or natural-feeling to me.Quote:

I already moved your foot pedal question to a new thread. Foot pedals have nothing to do with this thread.

First impression is that it's the same thing as a R.A.T. 7 except it has more buttons. ;) One complaint
still stands as before and that is that I would like to see all the buttons on this mouse as programmable.
The DPI and Profile buttons are still not programmable and neither are the two new Action-Lock buttons
or the new "Shift" button.
If you own(ed) the original R.A.T. 7 you might've thought that the mouse wheel was a little flimsy. Well,
that's been upgraded in this new M.M.O. 7 version and it feels more durable. What has been downgraded
is the ability to adjust the thumb rest left and right (you can still adjust it forward and back, though). I'll
assume the choice to remove that option was because of the addition of 3 new buttons and the 5D
button to the thumb rest area.
I'm going to give this version much more of a chance than I did the original R.A.T. 7. Expect to hear more
in about a week or so.
The 5D button looks to only recognize one direction at a time.Quote:
