Is it worth it? D;

Tablets are completely worth it.

I have an Intuos Pro Medium SE which I use with Photoshop.
Would it be overkill to use such a tablet for osu! ?

If you have it already then no.

If you're getting it only to play osu! then buying anything bigger than the smallest size is a waste of money imo.

Would you guys recommend the osu tablet, i want a tablet and the osu tablet it's cheaper than buying one in my country even with the taxes for the export.
The thing i want to know is, it's really a good tablet? also, can i use to draw, or just for osu?

You can use it for anything you want.
It's good enough for osu!

BTW, anyone have any recommendations on pen nibs?
Mine is starting to run out.
(Plz don't say hover. I have other work to do. My local shops don't sell any pen nibs....)

Midnight in my opinion i think it depends what do u use the tablet for most of the time, for me i do drawing a lot so i prefer the nib with a rubber at the tip, gives u more feel to it :P . Or you can just take out the pen nib and play osu without it, it still works fine though.

P.S im a newbie here so dont judge me :3

Tfw there's no mouse purchase guide :(

Is it better or worse to have a larger active area? I have a bamboo large and an intuos sml, naturally I use the larger pad but it does mean you have to move more to get from one place to another.

This is subjective and depends on the player. My advice is to use the biggest area you can while still be able to reach all 4 corners of your area.

You can go to the manufacturer's website and most likely find the model of pen you have.

Did anyone try this tablet in osu? It looks like it's simply a new generation of the belowed Wacom Intous tablets, so it should be good enough, right?

These are the New Line of tablets set to replace the ctl 480. So far there hasn't been a lot of exposure of them for osu.

Basically other people are waiting for others to buy it.

I regret not buying the clt-480 two months ago,now I can't find it anywhere and there are 2 of those in amazon for some ridiculous prizes,any recommendations about something similar ?

You can still purchase ctl 480 from best buy / best buy (online version).

I would do so asap because they are starting to disappear.

Do you live in the US/UK

Try going to your Local Best buy or order it from Best Buy's site:

Heh, I'm better at osu! with my tablet (Wacom Intuos Pen and Touch Small) then I am at drawing.

I am still a bit confused about tablet purchase. I am actually considering getting one, because playing with a mouse is actually quite physically painful for me.

I didn't want to start another thread, I see there is many already, but I'm not too good with that kind of stuff, so I was hoping someone would be kind enough to explain things to me smoothly.

I stumbled upon this guy's post : http://sweetmonia.com/Sweet-Drawing-Blo ... ing-guide/
Who suggested this tablet: http://www.amazon.com/mn/search/ref=as_ ... 7MWG2AUVGI

But when I look at the size of it, roughly 2.2 X 4 inches, that sounds incredibly small.

For the same price, I could get the osu! tablet which seems to be roughly double in size.

In that guide, I noticed that the Osu tablet is not in the options, is there a reason to it?

Considering that I am a pretty casual player, with no real hopes of being competitive, the Osu! tablet seems like a fine pick, but since it's not in that guide, I'm wondering if there is something I don't quite understand yet.

Sorry for all these "noobish" questions, I just have no idea where I'm going with that, and I don't really want to make a mistake on my purchase either.

Looking forward to hear from anyone who would be interested in clarifying things for me. I'll check this thread again, but if you want to take it in PM, I would also much appreciate that.

Thank you.

Have a look at the CTL-480 or the CTL-490. The CTL-490 when I got it was not very optimized and I refunded it and got the CTL-480. It is a tablet which many people go for and has a nice area of 152mm x 95mm.

And what about the Osu! Tablet? http://store.ppy.sh/store/product/1

Why does not much people mention about it? Is it heavily inferior to the CTL-480 you mention about?

I've found a ridiculously cheap one by Wacom. Do you think it'd do the job?

no love for huion? i know the drivers suck and the build quality is nothing impressive, but the sheer price range is astounding. i picked up an 580 for $40 8x5in active area, with a pen, replacement nibs, driver cd and a manual. it works fine for art and excellent for osu!. the micro usb port is a bit wobbly though.
