Help me Kill you

[Professor Tony]

I just got myself a new mouse. I would like suggestions for setup of my buttons on it. This is the first mouse that I have ever had that was meant for gaming. The mouse is a Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum. I have attached an image below of the mouse. Obviously there will be a learning curve to the additional buttons but I figured it would be best to get some input before I set my buttons. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Looks a lot like my g402, except that g402 > g502 personal preference only tho

No one will tell you what is better imo, you have to rely on your preferences, some might tell how they set it up, maybe some setting will repeat. I personally use mouse3 for weaponbank5, mouse4 for kill and mouse5 for fov script.

I am tempted to buy the G403. What do you think about it?

I am tempted to buy the G403. What do you think about it?

 

well, its always dependent on personal preference. g403 has 1000Hz polling rate max which is perfect although any mouse with 500 is just as fine since you dont notice the difference, a polling rate lower than that is not recommendable, but its extremely uncommon to find a mouse in this day and age with a polling rate of 250 or 125Hz.

 

The DPI is changable through the driver software which is nice, but any (relatively new) logitech mouse has the same software like a lot of other brands.

 

it has a 10gram changeable weight if you dont like the weight of the mouse. Although the possibility to change your weight is always nice, a mere 10g difference wouldnt be hard to adjust yourself to anyways without removing the weight (or adding it)

 

Its a solid build with 5 mousebuttons + dpi switch like a lot of popular mice (for example deathadder). Now to say if you can live with only 5 buittons or you want 7 or 9 or even more is entirely up to you.

 

The sensor is optical which is the best option you can choose from. Also very common.

 

Its fairly light (judging from my mouse experience) but if you add the weight it gets to quite a normal weight, but if you are used to light mice then you might not need it

 

The length is not too long, not too short. Seems fine for a palm or fingertip grip. If you are one of the select few who uses a claw grip then Im not sure, maybe its fairly big, but I cant say for sure.

 

Personally I think the design looks good because its curved to the left, making it comfortable in your hand (in my opinion). Since personally I cant STAND symmetrical mice, I just cant stand them

 

 

 

so yea, must of the settings you 'need' are there, but thats pretty common nowadays with most companies, it mostly comes down to size, weight and design. Which is all personal preference

Until I test it I will not find out...

One more thing: cable or wireless?

 

Now I'm using small and heavy MX Anywhere (wireless). I changed the buttons for faster and thin teflon sliders.

I have the same mouse. Other than being a little too narrow, it's nice. Like said, you need to find the settings that work best for you

I use mouse3 for /kill (which is more useful in scrimming than pubbing, honestly)

Mouse 4 for attack2 (like putting an rnade on or pulling a scope up)

Mouse 5 for activate, because I use F for prone.

Have fun with it!

[elcabron]

I use a simple mouse, a Microsoft with bind mouse3 to /kill 

[Chuckun]

For me i have:

Left click = shoot

Right click = scope

Middle click = jump (secondary)

Forward side button = action (push, open door etc)

Rear side button = reload

I'd never consider a mouse costing more than 10 bucks, so I can't help you

Never buy a wireless mouse/keyboard/headset for gaming. Other than that, you need to get used to the new mouse and it might take some time to find good sensitivity and button combo. 

As for the sensitivity, rather set it lower than higher than with your old mouse and try it for few days before change to something else (if the sens isn't something you cant handle well). Rome wasn't built in a day
