Just bought an MX518

And wow what a difference actually having a good "gaming" mouse. I was using a Microsoft Intellimouse Optical and this thing blows it out of the water. Being able to change DPI whenever in game is awesome. Say I'm running around on 400 DPI and I get in a tank, I can boost it up to 1600 and turn the entire tank in a split second. I love it, never going back

I have the MX1000, and I love it. So sensitive, its crazy. And I'm running standard MS Windows drivers, not the ones that Logitech sent with the mouse.

Same with me, 400-800-1600 is good enough settings.

Re: Just bought an MX518

hehe, yeah the MX518 (and it's cordless counterparts) is amazing, isn't it? It gives you a little edge over other players in tanks, but not so much that people accuse you of hacking. It's great. I'm still trying to find the best combo for functions on it. Thinking of setting the two thumb buttons to croutch and prone. When I get an n52 to go with it, I'll be set.

Re: Just bought an MX518

I have 11 buttons or something like it, on my MX1000, I only use the defaults for now, but will slowly customize my setup for things like reloading, med packs, etc, etc.

Re: Just bought an MX518

Ok I know the mouse is good and all. But you hardly have an "advantage" over the rest of us. Most of us are smart enough to set our player and Tank sensitivity settings independantly so the game automatically adjusts without having to press any button on the mouse.

Re: Just bought an MX518

As sensitive as you can get it, we can get it more sensitive....which means quicker whip-arounds, etc. Which maybe just enough to give an edge. Of course my theory is, if the player sucks, all the equipment in the world won't make him/her good.

Re: Just bought an MX518

Big deal you can get it more sensitive that too sensitive? I have all my in game settings set well below the half way mark. And if worst came to worst I would just up the sensitivity settings in windows. But yeh you do have the added benefit of improved percision with that mouse and I want one!

Re: Just bought an MX518

I only use 1.50 sensitivity in the in game settings, i don't like too sensitive, i'm slowly pushing the bar up. I once put it to 5.00 sensitivity, man that was horible, i move my mouse, 1 mm, it moves from top to the bottom of the screen, i don't need sensitivity. gaming mouses help, but a reliable optical mouse is ok if you don't wanna spend over 20 bucks.
