Nostromo N52 profile for CSS

**Superfast** · 02-16-2008, 10:27 AM

I and other TG'ers use that Nostromo N52 gamepad. So here is a copy of my setup to get people going with the Nostromo in CSS.

Yes it is! It's actually a usb keyboard on it's own but not useful for any typing. So you put it away or disconnect it when you are not using it and your other keyboard works fine!

Thanks I might have to try it

Having that all for my left hand I might be able to use the keys better then what I got now.

psh... is that just a keyboard and mouse put together? i'd rather just go with the normal way.

Nah it isnt a mouse, just keyboard espesialy for gaming, so to give you many buttons at ease, I hear particulary good for games like Armed Assault which has alot of buttons to do different things.

A keyboard has more keys than a speedpad, and i dont get how its faster, you have like, 30 or something keys all around your hand... i dont get how its soo hard to do a little reaching?

**† Disciple †** · 02-17-2008, 05:09 AM

For some poeple it is not hard to do a little reaching but I know for one that i will miss the keys i ment to press and hit flash light or drop weapon lol. I can see the diversity of keys on that thing that it will be easyier to locate which key you require without looking down ever.

**Superfast** · 02-17-2008, 07:49 AM

That's right. And i atleast fumble less for the keys with it than before. And it's also easier on the wrist when you game for hours.

**Kulmar** · 02-17-2008, 03:08 PM

hmpth... i never fumble for keys. maybe i play too much?

The N52 is designed to fit the palm of your hand and has easy access thumb buttons. I have no problems using a keyboard, but the N52 had made gaming much more intuitive and natural for me.

As for ArmA...because there are so many keys, I find myself moving back and forth between the N52 and the keyboard. I have only the neccessary keys bound for combat and such on my keypad...all the rest I use my keyboard for.
