Pretty sure, Asheron's Call, Plane Shift and a heap of other games had WASD long before WoW.

WoW has utilized many aspects of all older MMOs, such as Everquest, Asheron's Call, Ultima Online, Dark Age of Camelot, and Final Fantasy XI (a lot from this game). The UI is not new, the quest system is not new, the classes aren't, the physics aren't, the community aspect isn't, and the economy isn't. These are all elements taken by Blizzard, transformed into a Warcraft model, polished extremely well, popularized, and released to the public as a hit. I don't think Blizzard introduced anything in WoW that was uniquely new to the MMO genre. If they have, it's something that isn't foundational, and probably the result of a later patch.

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

My last ex bought one of those mice before we broke up. I looked at getting the mouse for myself as I was in the market at the time. My issue with the mouse was that it felt cheap and small. The buttons were meh and the scroll wheel was sloppy. This was a brand new mouse and I considered that unacceptable.

That's just an opinion of course and opinions do vary wildly at times.

You sound mad brah. Do you actually think you're refuting what I said? All that does is prove what I said earlier about WOW popularizing the WASD control concept for MMOs. Blizzard did introduce new concepts but clearly the quote is from a hater. The thing is though you can make the same argument about everquest, AC and even UO let alone the others listed such as DAoC or FFXi which reused concepts introduced years before. The early MMOs were based off popular concepts used in prior games. One could easily make the argument that there hasn't been a truly new idea in MMOs for over a decade.

"Evercrap" was not my style of game and that came out years after UO and meridian 59.

Are you just arguing to argue at this point? You made absolutely no point with that statement.

Zero issues to date on both input and interference.

They do provide cord extension for receiver but I just kept it plug in back of comp.

Reason it stop being go to mice for both is it can't track well on star citizen ultra wide pad I think surface is to soft and porous for its surface tracking software to deal with.

I have them set up like so:

11 drones engage
12 ctrl

The only complaint about this mouse is those buttons get pretty manky if you forget to clean them , which is likely as they're a pain in the arse to clean

Some cheap Dell brand mouse I stole from work when my own cordless one died. Lol

This place has too much money anyway.

Ah! You gave it a better home.
Ironically, I have only ever left a mouse at a job, which I had personally bought. P

I use the Logitech Anywhere MX Wireless Mouse.

It works pretty good in the games i play. But, i will most likely buy me the new Logitech Anywhere MX 2 Wireless Mouse soon though.

Here is a list of my current EVE / PVP videos:

1: Asteroid Madness

2: Clash of the Empires

3: Suddenly Spaceships fighting in Tama

Sharkoon Fireglider (the glossy fire design one. wish i'd got the matt black one....) decent mouse though. i don't need a hundred buttons.

In a few moments you will have an experience that will seem completely real. It will be the result of your subconscious fears transformed to your conscious awareness.

Yes you do. I should take a picture of all of my buttons but I can't be bothered to clean my peripherals.
