a mouse is so important for gaming?

i can play as well with this mouse do i?

I think having a good mouse is really important for gaming.  I'm not sure which mouse that is you posted but you'll be at a slight disadvantage to those with better mice.

It's enough. I know someone with a deathadder 2013 and sucks at fps games.

 

Getting a "gaming" grade mouse is more along the lines of "I want the luxury of X". People want ergonomics or something cool to look at, or some easily accessible macros.

 

Here's something for comparison: A microsoft intellimouse is good enough for bf4.

Depends on sensor and DPI. Gaming mice tend to have better DPI over standart mice and so make them more accurate. There's personal preference on which is better, high DPI or high sensitivity, but overall higher DPI makes more sense if you like to play with few mouse movements. Additionally that mouse lacks buttons which, again, is personal preference. FPS with lots of functions might be easier to handle with atleast two sidebuttons and way to adjust DPI on the go. You can easily get decent gaming grade mouse for $/€30 from SteelSeries, Logitech or CM Storm.

steel series 30 euro really?

 

What's hard to believe? It's normal for gaming mice to be over 80€, I paid my G400S 55€, and it's not the most expensive mouse I ever bought...

 

Your mouse will be fine, it's not like you'y going pro or anything. Just try have fun, and try not to be an ass here on the forums. Try to show some gratitude to the people that help you or you won't last long. Neither of us HAVE to answer to your questions, we do it because we want to help, and nobody wants to help an asshole so don't become one. Also, double posting is shunned in online forums, mostly because it takes up space and time of moderators and general users and it's downright annoying.

Depends on how serious you are about how you play, and how much you care about your dollar-worth seeing as $15 on a really shitty mouse is kind of dumb when there are $30-40 mice on the market that are considered top of the line in performance, not including sales on said mice.

Buy what you want, but don't just post pictures of random products. There are such things as hardware specifications and features lists. You can buy a Razer Naga and have like 20 macro keys on it but that doesn't mean it's a better mouse purely for camera movement and durability at all..

Recommendations:

Gigabyte M7 Thor (two versions, $30/40 on amazon and probably other sites)

Logitech G400s/G500s (anywhere, cheap enough)

CMStorm Spawn (amazon.com for $26.99 or so)

Razer Abyssus ($30, newegg/amazon I believe)

Razer Naga ($45 or so, depending where and what model; some are closer to $65-80)

Razer Deathadder 2013 ($35-45, depending where and if on sale)

Razer Deathadder 2014 ($65 I believe, if it's out already)

Razer Taipan ($45-75, depends where and if on sale)

Various Mionix mice (dunno price or where, check newegg/ncix)

Lastly, Corsair M## mice (ranging from $40 to $70 I believe)

Any of these mice are really good, more than enough for 80% of people. Some are better than others, others are more niche due to grip style, finish, weight, cord or their shape/style. These are options if spending $5-20 on a pretty terrible random brand mouse isn't what you want, but if you're on a budget, go with whatever.

Edit: I guess that wasn't 5 recommendations. I meant 5 different brands but then I added a Gigabyte mouse.

To put it in comparison, I believe a normal mouse has hardware accelerated 800 or 1600DPI movement speed, and the norm for a "gaming" mouse is to have anywhere between 800 and 7200 DPI in at least 3 settings + some of which have drivers and fully customizable DPI settings. What I consider reasonable is 2000-2400DPI for quick but controllable movement speed. You'll likely want higher if you want raw DPI (no hardware acceleration) and/or an optical sensor mouse. And if you're a twitchy shooter person that wants to do 360 noscopes with a jolt of their hand, you'll want something between 6500 and 9000+ DPI, though I think the max I've seen is like 8400.

Around-ish. Under 40€ for sure in here. Like http://www.jimms.fi/tuote/62020 SS Kinzu. From same store under 40€ from Gigabyte, Thermaltake, Gamdias, Roccat, Zowie... I mean thats pretty low price (my Kova[+] is 50€) for gaming mouse that has all features you would need. But cheap price has its costs as in built quality. My previous mouse was 65€ Kone original and it lasted 3+ years. This mouse has been in use bit over year and has already shown some weakness (little clue leak).
