???????????????

my general thought about the whole thing was how OW was coming out and Valve, to me, were making efforts to get their game up to modern standard so they don't possibly lose a player base. but from a company that has been around for years, one that has 2 other games with functioning MM systems and we get the shit show we have now.

imo i never felt like money would solve or really fully help competitive tf2. but just a somewhat "hey guys, if you want some more serious gameplay, try comp over x website" kinda deal.

even though that never happened i thought comp tf2 being added would help people explore the format and competitive game a bit more.

what has resulted is an experience which is quite shit compared to other games these days and to me will actually put people off competitive tf2 because of the poor experience they might have. Not only that but you in theory actually have to fucking pay to play matchmaking!!!

It's probably my own fault for thinking like this, as mentioned in said "rant" I have a lot of emotional investment in this game and I'm sure there's many others around similar to me. Not only that but many people at tftv have put themselves in a lot of debt just putting on a show. When you have such a passion for e-sports and competitive gaming seeing talent and opportunities go to waste is somewhat heartbreaking.

New mouse from Logitech, pretty much a G100s on steroids.

You can get a detailed review of it already by Ino here

This looks really fucking good. Glad that it doesn't resembles a transformers penis.

Updated the link to actually go to the review.

I rate the revel slightly higher, the dm1pros mouse cable points downward so it can scrape on the mousemat quite a bit, not only that but the scrollwheel on the revel is a lot better.

but tbh there's really not much between them.

It's now up on massdrop again:

I'm actually getting the DM1 Pro S tomorrow so I'll let you know. But I've used the DM1 Pro anyway...

The side buttons on the revel are placed further back by a few mm, when I do my review on it I'll have comparison shots so you can see what I mean better.

Everything else are just very minor changes which does give it an edge as it seems like the higher quality product in between the two.

I got it from massdrop, kinda sucks as there are no other EU outlets that I can find atm, this will probably change if there's enough demand though.

I got mine today, it's very impressive, solid build quality, excellent performance all around.

It's worth looking into if you're in the market for a new professional supreme gaming mouse for professional e-sport enthusiasts.

*le sigh*

I pre ordered, I can just get a refund if I don't like it.

To me, it's more than what I wanted at a bare minimum, if I can fly around in a spaceship and visit cool new planets n' shit that's fine for me. All the other trading, fighting bollocks is just a bonus.
