Only the default (TGN Light) theme for now. Dark them is also coming back soon. Then CSN. Then Wrestlin' Nation. A lot of WIP stuff right now. There are a couple of things still not working either. Sorry.
Logitech makes great mice and my speakers rock. However, I've owned 3 of their joysticks and all broke within a couple months. I am not hard on my equipment either.
Logitech. The Attack 3 is awesome, most ergonomic stick around so it feels great. Great response. Have had it for 3 months now with no problems. I think those that have problems probably handle it like a baby does its' toys. :laugh:
Logitech joysticks are WEAK! They will break much earlier than any other joystick. I used to have a Logitech 3D, then I bought a Saitek Cyborg Evo and it is AMAZING. No calibration issues, great feel/customization to it, and the same price as a logitech joystick.
Personally i think the joystick choices for PCs these days are just weak. Back in the early 90s there were tons more to choose from and they were all better then the crap out there today. Hopefullly games like BF2 will bring the joystick back into the light.
BTW I have the loitech 3D extreme pro.
What i like:
1. Got the Z-axis (twisting handle) for rudder/yaw
2. Got throttle
3. Got good button placement around the thumb
4. Get it at Best Buy/Comp USA for 25 bucks
Don't Like
1. Throttle got no friction
2. Z-axis is starting to jump around after 6 months of use
3. No control over the X/Y axis friction. Personally i little too stiff for my taste.
First question: I've never found any point in using a joystick for BF2, even though I've owned and used plenty.
Yes, the few Logitech joysticks that I've purchased died on me in no less than 3 months. They're only good for their mice, which kick Razer's any day.
I currently own and use the Saitek Cyborg Evo for my flight sims. Affordable. Reliable. Durable.
I first bought the logitech and returned it the same day. I didn't like the feel after actually playing and it just didn't seem that durable.
I returned it for the Saitak Cyborg Evo which I should have bought in the first place because for the $ it's a wonderful piece of equipment. It's heavy and stays in place, buttons are all easy to press, and the handle is adjustable! I have had no issues with it since BF2 came out.
I use the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro and have been for quite some time now. I have no problems with it and the twist handle rudder controls work great. The only thing that kinda bugs me about it is the alternate fire button is flush with the joystick so it is a little awkward to push. Other than that I give it a thumbs up.

Exactly the same problem I have. It jumps right around the middle, so if you are on the tail of a jet and trying to use machine guns, it jumps left/right as you try to do small corrections.
Or the worst one is when taking off. Sometimes right out of the hanger, the plane starts to veer off to the left, and if you don't catch it soon enough, I'll crash into the trees.
I used to have a logitech..can't remember the model, but it broke and I had to get a new one. I decided to go with the saitek cyborg evo and I love it. If my cyborg were to break down I would buy the same model.
I've got three of the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro's (or have had) for my two computers. One lasted about a year before having problems. One lasted two years and is still going strong. One (a refirb no less) has lasted about a year and is still going strong. I've heard of problems from others, but think getting a year out of a $25 joystick is pretty damned good for as much as I use it. I love it.

ya 1 or 2 year life span for a joystick is fair enough. im just a bit worried if it's like some ppl have said it breaks in a couple of months.
