I'm not a new player but I am new to joysticks. I've used Mouse and Keyboard for a long time now but I'm thinking about getting a gaming joystick for MWO. I don't really know much about them so I'd like to ask you(the MWO community's) thought of some good, inexpensive gaming joysticks.

A few requirements
Price, must be under $100
must have "force feedback" (I believe that's what's its called when the joystick gives resistance to my directions)
I'm used to Mouse so sensitivity is very important to me and would like a joystick that can accommodate that.
I don't really "need" a throttle, Keyboard works fine for me

Thank you,
AngryJohnyy

--A Kell Hound mechwarrior is squaring off against a Jade Falcon mechwarrior. Getting frustrated with the Hound pilot constantly jumping into cover or behind his mech, the Jade Falcon warrior switches open his comm link and calls out to his enemy "Stand and fight me you cowardly freebirth!"

The Kell Hound, unphased by the Falcons taunting responds, "Fat chance you son of a B!tch."

The Falcon warrior replies, "Freebirth surat! How dare you accuse me of having a mother!"--

Forget it. Not worth it. Trust me.
One recommendation is the Thrustmaster t 1000 m.
Hall sensors, TARGET programming, 60$
No FFB Joysticks these days, the tech is not in demand.
HOTAM on the other hand is nice compromise
(Hands on Throttle and Mouse)
However, that is way more than you are willing to spend.

unfortunately a Joystick is a liability on this game, Keyboard and mouse is far easier
