Hmmm....well I'll be sure to set some cash aside for it. I like when games and companies try and make you feel more like part of the game. But until i can afford it and my other expenses, I think ill stick with the old sidewinder.

Also, am i the only one that thinks adding a ejection lever would be pretty sweet?or hilarious as the case may be.

1000000% agree, I have a few Razer products, and I wish I could reverse time and get Logitech ones.

This looks potentially very cool.

If it actually delivers on all levels, you have an amazing piece of hardware!
I want high quality force feedback, good motors, good ergonomics, good responsiveness, good drivers.
Many people were looking for a proper M:WO controller, hopefully this proves to be the one to recommend.
If this is quality hardware, this gives me greater hope there may be a bit more to the game than has met the eye.

Although one caveat I must mention, If you fail to support other joysticks well, because you have your own to spend time supporting/promoting, well then that will be costly.

Next to Logitech, which likely would have cost an arm and a leg to deal with, this maybe the next best in quality. If it's like any other product these days, they likely share manufacturing plants, but I do dig on Logitech, but I'm not going to crap on Razer at this point. I don't know the Razer of today but I know they have been around and have had competitive gear that pro gamers use, so can't be too bad.

To Be Honest, I like the look and the idea of the system, but I think there could be some upgrades to it.

Maybe add mfd buttons under the display so you can easaly switch thru the differant windows.

maybe make it so the there can be split screen, I like being able to see whats going on in TS/Vent and maybe have target info and damage info.

but I really hope my old M$ Sidewinder 2 Force Feedback works with the game...

Hey Seal9.

Dont worry, it wont cost an arm and a leg... well it might, but you dont need both legs to play so give them those. I am sure they will when you tell them what your using it for.

if this thing goes at 300$ a pop id bet someone at MWO better toss in like a year of free VIP play to go with it( or more)
or its going to sit on the shelf forever just like the steel battalion joysticks did

So is this being manufactured or is it going to remain a concept?

Also, if a dedicated controller is going to be made for a BT game, shouldn't it have twin sticks?

No thank you. I purchased a headset and mouse from Razer, they have both been in the closet collecting dust for a long time now. Is it too late to swing a deal with MS? Bring back the Sidewinder!

Nothing beats a good old fasion Thrustmaster Joystick. That smooth trigger grip, thumb weapon selector, the yellow black alpha strike button, that wrist twist torso twist action and slide throttle control.


Most of us have a joystick, and most computers have a key board so I'm not sure how much of a good idea the Artemis was. In the end I would probaly by a better router and a better wi-fi connection. Before I give up the

Thrustmaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! joystick.

Looks cool hope you sell a lot of them.

Looks Great. For me, I want a reduced version without screen, because:
1. I have no more space in my desk (the fisical one =P )
2. Looks Expensive

Your a perfect person for a Thrustmaster mines been tuck away in the back next to the surround sound that is spread out on the drawing board I use for a desk collecting dust since X3 Terren Conflict. to my left is a Bass speaker and my morning Tomato juice glass to my right a pile of CD's starting with Diablo 3. ending with a burned copy of Demon Knight.

Yes the trash can is overflowing with 99 cent Arizona ice tea.

Thanks
