    I can't believe that the logitech g600 didn't make the first page. I used to think that the thumb buttons weren't really all that needed but I got a great deal on it, so I got one. OH MY GOD is it great... all the keyboard that I need right there & never have to leave WASD. Got targeting, vision modes, zooms, modules, a tag macro (basically just me holding the 6 key down for 60ish seconds) player list/full map, push to talk all right there. The wheel has 3 clicks that I set sides to walking/running speeds & number 4 trigger. Truly makes everything as twitch simple as firing without fumbling around in the dark on the keyboard (but maybe that's just me.)

    Awww, you poor guys!!!! Honestly? The Drakonia Black is one of the best mice I have ever owned. Granted I worked my MX518 for about 10 years but still! :rofl:

    Can't call people poor when you could only afford half the buttons...

    I use the G600, too, for one and a half year or so.
    Was so impresset that I got a Logitech keyboard (w/ 6 macro keys) and headset when I got a new computer this spring. (Can't remember all these product number-names)
    Downside: The key lights and mouse key lights I can get to only 98 % the same color ;)

    It can and does. I use it regularly. Mouse wheel up for me is max zoom capacity and wheel down is one step lower than previous.

    Yes, I discovered this when I started playing again. I use the wheel for my zoom now and voice activation to talk.

    Still like your Drakonia? I found this thread as I am thinking about a new mouse and am thinking about grabbing one of them. I also just came back to the game. Stopped playing around release, been about 2 years now. Enjoying how much the game has expanded since I last played.

    Yeah I do love the Drakonia, it fits right for my hand. One thing I don't like is their software as macro can only be set for a limited number of actions and not set to repeat but for MWO that isn't as critical as other games.

    Thinking about to upgrade from my Drakonia to the Logitech G600. Anyone can give me feedback whether the upgrade is worth the bucks?

    I now have a Razer DeathAdder Chroma edition. LOVE it. Love the feel and accuracy of the razer and Synapse 2.0 rocks.

    It's an amazing mouse. Takes some adjustment since the side buttons can be easy to press, but I have almost everything in MWO mapped to it. Can also macro it if you so choose, and it responds very well. DPI shift is also very nice. All in all, great mouse.

    I have it and am happy with it.

    Especially the 3rd button on top right for the ring finger.

    I`m still (ab)using my Logitech MX510, but I think when my new gaming rig arrives, I`ll Need a new mouse too^^

    The G600 Looks good to me, especially those many buttons for the thumb.

    Too many buttons for me tbh. I am currently interested in the G502, though, but wasn't able to test one in a shop yet.

    The best part of the G600 is that it comes bundled with the logitech gaming software, which makes it extremely easy to set up and change things. The side buttons seem like a handful at first...but they are amazingly nice. You can bind your consumables, mic key up for TS3/VOIP, and numerous other things to the thumb buttons, and keep your left hand free to control movement. Takes some adjustment, but it's worth it...I don't think I could play with a normal mouse ever again.
