Playing with a mouse.
« on: January 07, 2005, 05:26:55 PM »
Lazer's got nuttin on me! muahahaha  

Got ubber laptop for the road... A mousey with several buttons and a wheely gig thingy. Only problem now is dialup connect bs!

Funny thing is it seems smooth, but lead has changed, or how much I have to lead someone. Could be just me. But I'm here agian, with another sizeable dent in my piggy jar courtesy of Alienware this time just to play this frickin game. :o

They make any joysticks that are "ok" or good but not big? I mean smaller than say a MS Precision 2? Wireless would be nice. Havent had the need to really look at any sticks, MS P2 was all I ever needed. A mouse is ok tho for now. Not much difference cept for the rudder.

I swear this game should come with a surgeon generals warning...

Still will never be able to pull the all nighters anymore like I used to with Nomak in the DA like the days of old. But this will do.

Sorry guys, I'm still here. :D


PS- Stang....... You have no excuse now but to buy an ubber laptop as well and play while your on the road. With that pro-golfers salery, you have no excuse! :p

You're pro when you can fly with the "touch" mouse pad on the actual laptop. :D

I've flown with the mouse since I started in this game. Bought a stick just before xmas but can't adapt.

I find the mouse easier for the delicate adjustments in flight, and as you say, the only prob is with rudder, but manage that with keyboard.

This may be one of the reasons I fly the Hurri and Zeke most though as sometimes you can out-turn without need for rudder.

Each to their own!
