Basically he says for wrist players it's bad if the sensor is in the center of the mouse. It should be in front, close to your fingertips. Makes sense IMO.

As long as the sensor is not "back-and-away" from you, it doesnt really make a whole lot of difference(back and close, like g300s actually works surprisingly precise, you "steer" with thumb and index, instead of fingertip). The g700 was made with the sensor almost to the front and on your fingertips, its not just a question of hardware engineering to make it fit. "They know" and experimented. It removes some precision to have the sensor too far to the front actually, unless your are completely frictionless, which is only in ideal conditions. Further back from center, in the middle is ofc "worst case scenario" and removes the fine precision needed, like some A4Tech mice.
Very fair point. q4 was such a snappy game, surprised he could stand playing ql after having played q3 and q4
Maybe they do, and it's a big maybe; but they sure as hell aren't remotely interested in producing the best product they could, otherwise they wouldn't be pumping out 5000 dpi abominations with all kind of native predictions and corrections incapsulated in a heavy ass ergonomical retardation glittered by 1000000000 RBG combinations. On a monthly basis.
Gaming mices technology has been solved 15 years ago.
Gaming peripherals producing companies, instead, have their monthly meeting where they must show shareholders how the market has grown 1.2% compared to the previous year. Everything else is irrelevant.
Especially considering "gamers" is the single most guillable and powerless between consumer groups.
actually for 1080p, 400dpi from 15years ago is gonna jump pixels with anything less than 20cm/360. Most people play with something like that or "higher". DPI is not just a gimmick
I was there, i know 400dpi natively was 10x time better than some predicted interpolated 1600dpi or whatever
The secret is finding a mouse without any correction/prediction. A standard logitech 800-1000dpi office mouse does that, or the g300 sensor at 1000dpi feels very native too, like mx500 or WMO 400dpi.
You can still get a decent mouse man. Look cheap ass office mice. They use the technology of yesteryear you are after, with a sensor at native dpi. Use the signed usbhidf OC if you absolutely need 500-1000hz
