There's mice exactly the same as this but without the gun shaped top. They're ergonomic mice that are meant to prevent carpal tunnel. They work just fine

But why is a pistol built like it is if it isn't ergonomic?

A pistol and a mouse are 2 different things. If it was a pistol sure its ergonomic. But as a mouse thats not a good way to hold up your wrist for a long time

Isn't it a similar position to the ergonomic mice with the rolling ball? Still different so probably not ideal.
Normal mice aren't good ergonomically for long periods of time.

I have the logitec ergonomic mouse. And it curves more to the left so its a more relaxed position. But ofcourse its not a gming mouse, cant hit shit with my ergonomic mouse.

With normal mice you hold your hand horizontally
With pistol mouse you hold your hand vertically
With ergonomic mouse its in between. This thing is just as bad as normal mice but in the other direction.

u/SwissMoose 11d ago
There is some confusion here. "Up" in this case actually means moving the mouse surface forward on a mouse pad plane. Not "Up", off of the mousepad like you would with a lightgun.
Mixing two well known control mechanisms like this with two different orientations is pretty stupid. You can actually see the player try to twist the controller a little like it would affect his aim. But that's not how a single mouse sensor works.
The haptics are cool though

He does but he’s playing counter strike which most players have a very low sensitivity.

You can see the aim move when he moves the mouse though? Waaaay to high of a sensitivity but you can see it move.

Watch the moment when he kills the dude above him on the stairs. His sights clearly move up as he slides the “mouse” forward

It’s really just a mouse, the tip of the “barrel” has no purpose other than making it look like a gun.

u/Sharpymarkr 11d ago
I had the same suspicion when they shot the person on the stairs, so I rewatched it several times. It does look like they push the mouse forward to aim up.

I had vertical mouse (this what is it. but with tunning) back in my digital design years. They were made in first place to help with "mouse arm syndrome" (carpal tunnel syndrome). And i had problems with my hand so decided to check this one.
Hated it from day one. Thought that i need time to get used to. Tried to get used to it for like half a year. But it so unintuitive. That i throw it away and bought drawing tablet.
So no. Its not a game changer. Its a product made to hate your time behind PC even more

How long did it take you to adapt? Got a buddy who uses one and after he told me it took him like 7 months to return his kdr to normal mouse levels. That killed my desire to want one.
Knew someone who used DVORAK too who convinced me to give it a solid go for about 5 weeks. Started going well until I needed a laptop for school and I still hadn't memorized the layout for it. Was pretty amusing watching my buddies try to type on it. Also kinda sucked rebinding every single key to game on though.
"Alternative tech" like this makes me envious of people who don't give up and see it through.
2
u/WorkinAlpaca 9d ago
so i would say that it took me only about a month or so for it to really "click".
the biggest hurdle is the muscles you use to aim are different than a horizontal mouse. so it takes a bit of re-learning to get used to it, but i would say if you genuinely have interest in the swap (i would recommend to any FPS game tbh) do what i did in the beginning, every 2 weeks, i would use the vert for 1 week until i felt comfortable, or the horizontal started to feel less comfortable.
you'd be surprised after only a couple weeks how much a normal mouse actually strains your arm/wrist in ways i guess the body doesn't fully relay back. just keep at it, and make sure to get one that feels comfortable to you.
i am actually gonna be getting this mouse here soon as i seriously want the feedback in a gaming mouse. so if i remember to update when i get it, i will!

u/LightofAngels 9d ago
What are the benefits of using DVORAK over normal QWERTY, from your experience? Did you feel more productive? More effective?
2
u/Zeke13z 9d ago
Pretty much the only benefit is typing speed (and if you're into it, the pompous bragging rights). I maybe got within 20 percent of my typing speed of qwerty but I was definitely not on par. Pair that with every single game needing a rebind and my laptop keys not being swappable at the time and I eventually gave up and switched back.
I'd imagine this is about as mentally hard as a blind person getting fluent in pig latin (blind being relative because there's no visual context that can help the learner). Your brain knows the words, just doesn't memorize the right way to compile the letters into the word you want. Yes you can single finger type all day like you can think hard and rearrange English into pig latin but mastering is wildly different.

Is there a sensor detecting when you rotate it? This would be incredibly stupid if you can’t aim that way and actually need to move the mouse left and right to affect your aim.

u/MidnightNo1766 8d ago
I don't know if it's going to work as well as you'd think it would. Since it's got a gun handle, the natural motion would be to turn your wrist to aim but since it's a mouse you'd actually have to move the whole gun back and forth. I just don't think it would work out the way one would think it should.

The vibrating would mess with aim I’d imagine. Just like most COD pros don’t use vibration on their controllers. Same concept.
I’d imagine it’s cool for casual gamers tho. Although how casual are you playing on a PC let’s be honest.
