<----green with envy

I was checking them out yesterday after flying Lomac with the new patch. The gameplay is improved so much in my opinion that now it's my hardware holding me back. But...the joystick must come first.

no change in your JS with the new patch?

**USN_Squid** · 06-16-2004, 01:17 PM

I didn't notice any change from my joystick, other than the settings being at default again, but after tweakin it a bit it flies fine. My joystick is an old afterburner and I need more buttons and accuracy. So, I'm looking at the CH or x45...still reading about them though.

Ther only joystick you will ever need: Logitech Freedom 2.4 (Cordless Joystick)
MASSIVE range, dependable, long battery usage, does NOT use infra-red, USES radio. Real good range, get a program and it can be a remote control for your mouse on the desktop (Joytokey), 10 buttons, a throttle, a little thing in the middle that turns 12 different ways, uses 3 AA batteries, It has a twist and a push (twist side to side and pull forward, back, side to side)

Only drawback = Righthanded.. Lefthand COULD work but it looks as if it were designed for right handed.

not playing LOMAC this isn't the last joystick you'll ever need!

Sniper · 06-16-2004, 03:54 PM

well.. for games like BF1942 and such, it's a great joystick... it's actually a great joystick for my desktop and auto-firing in cs too! :P

thx for the plug sniper....this is what I'm talking about

Sniper · 06-16-2004, 06:27 PM

assuming from above your talking about a flight simulator/fighter, that joystick would flat out own

How do you like it? Any complaints?

I got one too. My only two complaints are that the rudder won't quite centre but that seems to be just my stick. Also after a while the stick can get a little stuck, silicon grease will sort that out though - other than that it is a great stick
