7331337 Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Amazon lets you get free shipping over $25... I wanted to spend $15 for new gaming mat but it'll cost $29 with shipping. I ordered this instead
ezy Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Steelseries has great products last time i checked the only so called good products from ss were the mousepad and few exceptional mouses. far from great products I would say just an overhyped and well placed commercial will let you sell the shit they make. not to mention that the price and the quality for what are you paying is 2-3 times worse than an item which you could buy with different brand name and receive same result for lower prices with better quality ,lol. (in this case it applies to the headsets) ss products are joke. based on my own experience with them I would prolly only go for the qck+ out of anything if I ever have to consider re-buying something from them...
Apaec Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 i bought that mouse pad It came rolled up in a thin cardboard box. When i took it out the box, it was all rolled up and because of the nature in which they rolled it, it now has permanent bends in it which curl up at the edges and I cannot seem to flatten them out (i placed a bible on the mousepad for 1 week and it didnt help, lol). Basicall its a good mouse pad buuuut its annoyingly packaged. apa

What is the benefit of a mousepad ? Is it better for your mouse on long term? Better for the gliding pads on your mouse? Should I get one too?

There's a few reasons why people use a mouse pad, here are a few: Softer on the part of your wrist which rests on the desk when u use the mouse Sometimes crumbs/similar get stuck between the mouse and the desk, which can cause damage to the desk Mouse feet last considerable longer Much quieter movement of mouse More even surface, while maybe problems are not noticed while doing things like browsing forums, for gameplay and more mouse-based activities, having a mouse pad really refines mouse movements More info here: http://mrdoob.com/projects/chromeexperiments/google-gravity/ 1

Medic Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Not sure where all the hate from steelseries is coming from. I've owned 3 Qcks + and heavy's and they're all wonderful. The Rival is an excellent mouse too, even though I use the Zowie Ec1 now Gaming pad are generally larger and cater to the FPS crowd. More space to mouse your mouse and they're either hard shell or soft cloth, depending on what you prefer. Gives you a large consistent surface to play on, and that's what you need in competitive FPS's Edited April 2, 2015 by Medic
