Outrageous Pricing on Evil

So I decided to swing by the Evil Controller site today just to see what was up in their neck of the woods, and I am certain that I almost had a heart attack when I saw their new "Master Mod" listing. They want 350 bucks for a controller that is "Possible of modding all games." Why would anyone spend that much money on one of those when they could get a Viking? I know this is really random, I just can't believe that they are charging that much money for a modded controller that will be outdated in a short time. If only everyone knew how great viking was.

Chipps, one thing that made me really curious about the master mod is the total lack of information, instructions or vidoes on their master mod (or their other products for that matter). I've always been curious how their controllers even work or how their support is, but their forums and web pages are trolled and pruned pretty heavily to keep up the image that they have 100% customer satisfaction. Heck we don't even have 100% customer satisfaction! 100% is impossible :)

here's one thing i noticed, for the outrageous price

theres like 6 steps you have to take to program it just for one gun
what happens when you want to switch guns during a game.
"k time to take 5 minutes to reprogram the thing, oh wait, whats that? games already over"

viking guy over here, "oh one sec lemme take 30 seconds to switch guns"

Yeah I have to admit, we still need to make even more improvements on switching between the fast reload modes. We're working on some windows customization software, it's quite a project but I'm hoping we can get it down in about 6 weeks or so. But reading through those instructions even I am a little intimidated on the setup. I guess their master mod is an example of why Viking hasn't created a 'supercode', I figured it was just easier to reflash the controller with windows. But some people might prefer to have all of the codes in their controller at the same time?

who knows,
i personally suffer from some ADHD so i couldnt even read through all of those instructions(mainly because i didnt care)
but yeah, i guess its whethere you want to save time in game, or save time switching between games.
personally i would prefer to save time in game. vs saving time while im switching disks, as i dont do it that often

349,99 dollars for the master mod is just the beginning. Who is paying so much money for a black or white controller. For the evil camo 44,99 dollars and if you don't read the small letters carefully then "free shipping" for instance then you are going to pay more ""10 dollars for domestic shipping and 27 dollars for international" I nearly ordered their Mysteriously Master Mod, but I wanted the 2x Nomad (re-mappable buttons) , Evil imaging Camo. I got a email back . """The grand total will be 490 with 10 dollars for domestic shipping and 27 dollars for international. Please get back to me at your earliest convenience""
My earliest convenience will be the time I'm dead. On my grave stone "" Killed by recession price of Evil Control R.I.P.""
