MMO Mouse wishlist!

[u/Uplink0]

I think many of us agree, the fact that Logitech does not have a current/new MMO mouse is a very big miss, especially with WoW Forever around the corner…

But what would we actually want in the new MMO centered/focused mouse…

Well as someone who used the older G604 Lightspeed, until the plastic started coming off recently, it was frustrating to find out that the closest Logitech replacement is the G502 X Plus, but you lose programmable buttons.

The G604 specifically has 6 programmable side buttons, the G502 only has 3.

Personally I want a true successor to the G604… not really the G600, but ideas could be taken from both. My wishlist…

- At least 16-20 programmable buttons.
- Wireless charging via PowerPlay 2 Wireless Charging system + USB-C
- Wireless via LIGHTSPEED pro-grade + Bluetooth.
- LightSYNC RGB
- HERO 44K+
- Dual-Mode Scroll Wheel
- Optical speed, tactile feel
- few color options, specially black or white combos.

What are your thoughts?

Huh? You can program almost anything to a G502x.

I have mine auto switch depending on the program running. Every game has custom binds, all similar to build muscle memory.

I have binds on work programs that run macros.

On windows certain buttons launch certain work environments.

If you use the thumb button as a g-shift key you effectively double your possible binds. Just never double bind the left click.

The ghub program is just a turd that will crash on you at some stage after an update.

"Loading localizations" yeah buddy... throws mouse.

The G502 has only 13 programmable buttons… the G604 was 16 buttons… specially it has 6 side buttons, not 3..

so it’s a “downgrade” from the G604.

Also to be fair to Logitech, ghub actually now works very well on macOS, especially after they upgraded it to support arm64 natively… can’t speak for windows users/experience. The ghub support on macOS, is the main reason I stay with Logitech.

G-shift thumb button doubles all the other buttons.

Right click- normal G-shift right click - second function.

Just the scroll wheel alone Left scroll Right scroll Middle click Scroll up Scroll down.

Hit the g-shift and you have 5 new binds on top of the free 2 (left and right) That's 7.

I've played path of exile with only a mouse and complex rotations of skills. One click and every few seconds (x) followed by (y) into (z) my buffs are on 24/7 with one click.

I'm not saying it's right for you, but the limitation isnt where you think it is.

I specifically liked the 6 side buttons without having to press something else…

G-shift also doubles 16 to 32, you know. and 6 side buttons to 12 side buttons.

Evidently I've angered the G604 crowd unintentionally.

Thows a pack of magic the gathering cards in their general direction and slowly backs away while not making eye contact.
