Joystick on a mouse ?

[Tinuviel]

Hi heroes !

I work in a company which has created a 3D mouse designed for graphic designers and 3D designers. I find the format suitable for video games and I would like to know your opinion on the subject.

Our mouse is called "Lexip 3D", it has a joystick and a tilt allowing movements in 3 dimensions on 6 axes. Companies like Dassault Systems have had the opportunity to work with.

Today, we don‘t sold this product anymore but we are working on a new basis for our professional target. On my side, I would like to present some mouse’s configurations on video games to my superiors to propose the development of a Lexip gaming mouse. I had the opportunity to do some tests on your game: http://www.ark-innovation.com/img/gifs/OW.gif

You can set the tilt, the joystick, the buttons as well as the classic keys of the mouse (X/Y axis, left/right clic).

As regular players, what do you think of our mouse?
Would it be interesting for Overwatch or another game?
Do you have any configuration ideas?

I look forward to talk with you !

If I can get my hands on one, I would love to test it out! Seems like a neat idea, and they joystick could have a ton of advantages over other players in the game.

Thanks @Alecthro for your answer
What advantages have you in mind ?

Have you any ideas of configuration ?

Here is the list of the buttons and X, Y, Z axis :
- Left and right clics
- 2 side buttons
- Joystick button (you press the joy)
- Analog joystick 360° : config on 4 directions
- Analog tilt 360° : config on 4 directions
- Translation up, down, left, right
- Scroll wheel up, down
- Scroll wheel button
- Lexip button (under the scroll wheel)
- Scroll wheel sensitivity
- Mouse sensitivity
- DPI (01 to 5040)

You can set up all these buttons with the Control Panel. You can do what you want (keyboard keys, shortcuts, macros…).

At first, the mouse is quite strange in hand, but you get used to it in a short time (1h max) : it's like any other controller
