Re: Nostromo Loadout

I used the thumbpad for the movement controls of WASD. I used to have it setup like you guys do BUT when I was deployed I played a massive amount of Halo 2 and 3 while having no internet access(gotta love small scale LANs). My left thumb got very used to controlling movement so I swapped over my Nostromo controls.

How is it for dependability? I've read some pretty bad reviews and I am absolutely fed up with buying cheap Made in China crap that breaks after two weeks.

Has Belkin ever got it to work with Vista?

Dunno about Vista but my N50 is about, uhmmmm, a decade old and still works any time I get a hankering to plug it in. Of course it doesn't get the use my mice do and I've had 3 in that time. So your mileage may varry.

It is incredibly reliable, I haven't had a single Nostromo break on me and I've upgraded several times.

I use a n52te with Vista and it works great! It takes a bit to get used to, but once you do, you will love it!

Love my n52, tho i am a cranky XP user that never upgraded to vista. I'm just returning to BF2142 and i had to reset my pad. I found myself using my old muscle menory for actions, and went back and altered the configuration to what my fingers remembered ;D

this really looks beyond nerdy... kinda looks like a powerglove aswell

**Zoraster** · 07-14-2009, 08:08 PM

it's true. my friends who come over usually don't know how much I play video games and when they see it they look at it askance.

that said, it's amazingly useful.
