You know someone should tinker with the modular analog stick feature and make a touchpad thingamabob replacement for the sticks as a “successor” to the steam controller

It would need some extensive modding to the controller board probably. I'm certain the proprietary port the sticks plug into are made to only recognize the sticks and function buttons.

The reason why gyro aiming is seen as a gimmick is because of a lot of older gamers who had to go through the PS Move/Kinect era hear the words "motion controls" and immediately nopes out. As someone who played a lot of Call of Duty mobile I got a lot of time to familiarize with it and it's basically a necessity for me when playing any mobile shooter game.

Three years later and it’s still not as popular as it should be which is a shame. I recently purchased a new controller to use for PC gaming because it offered the ability to add gyro aiming to all pc games and I use it in Helldivers 2 to great effect (though Helldivers supports gyro but it’s supposed to work in games that don’t support it as well since the controller is doing the processing). Gyro is only slightly less accurate and fast as mouse aiming when you practice, it just requires new muscle memory which takes time. To me though it is well worth the investment if you can do it. As I get older I find my hand can hurt a bit after gaming on keyboard for extended periods of time (wasd movement while trying to hit alt can really wear on you after a while lol). The controller helps with this a lot

@EMLtheViewer Ай бұрын

Those who claim that using gyro is cheating when they can play using sticks only seems like projection. They may be insecure about the fact that they rely on aim assist to hit anything with sticks at all and don’t want to actually put any real effort into tracking and hitting targets. So to those who only play with sticks: git gud.

It runs at 250hz, and has a native ps4 mode that gives direct access to the gyroscope. The face buttons also act as 4 quadrants of the ds4 touchpad, so they can be mapped to anything. Steam also has support for this, but I think the big picture update broke something, so I'd check that first instead of messing around with ds4windows.

@@tekgeekster no, I don't use steam. It needs to work on ds4windows for my usecase. But 250Hz for that price is too high. But at least having native ds4 mode would mean it can be used as gyro to mouse.

I have discovered gyro aiming when I played The Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker HD... However I really became a huge Gyro Aiming enthusiast since I played The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild on Nintendo Switch ! Even though I'm also a PC gamer and I play Fortnite with Mouse and keyboard, Unless I'm playing on PS5 which has Gyro aiming but I never play on Xbox because of the lack of gyro aiming... Even though Gyro aiming won't let you spin on yourself as quick as a mouse, aiming speed and precision is way above what you could do with a joystick. Personally, when it comes to single player games, I almost always use Controllers, and Gyro aiming is a huge selling point for me. Nintendo Switch has a lot of games using this mechanic. When I played Horizon Zero Dawn on PS4 after playing BotW, the lack of gyro really annoyed me... I tried Steam input to use gyro in any games However, since it's emulating a Keyboard and mouse input with the controller, it's far from perfect... The left joystick simply act as WASD on your keyboard... Which means it's on or off, there is no dynamic speed as we are used to with a controller... I really hope Xbox will make a Gyro controllers, in the near future, in order to push developers to offer the possibility to use gyro natively in every game where aiming is required

@tekgeekster 2 ай бұрын

Mapping gyro to mouse in games on pc is tricky. How good it will be depends entirely on how the game handles mouse and controller. some games let you use controller and mouse at the same time flawlessly, and those are games you should look for. Horizon zero dawn doesn't let you combine controller and mouse, so it's gonna be jank. Gyro can be as fast as mouse. It entirely depends on your setup as well as your flexibility. But if you want an easier way to get more speed out of gyro, combine your movements with the right stick. Using gyro together with the right stick is like manual acceleration.

the track pads aren't as comfortable for me to use as they are on the steam controller. they are too far down my thumb has to bend at an awkward angle, or I have to rest the deck in a way that gives my hand cramps. otherwise I usually end up using it as a quick menu for items or weapons

@carlosbarreto4695 2 ай бұрын

@@tekgeekster That's curious; I started using the trackpads on the Steam Deck and I love it, but I wanted to play the Steam Deck on the dock, so I purchased a Steam Controller a few days ago. And while I like the Steam Controller's trackpads, I prefer the squared version from the Steam Deck. So I think your first experiencea - or whatever you are used to - plays a role on your preferences. In any case, the thing is that the Steam Deck allows the possibility of using trackpads, gyro and and right stick for flick stick, all in a single package. I hope future controllers will use (and improve) this format.

@SeohnAranys 2 ай бұрын

As an avid steam controller user who hated when they discontinued it, then switching to the 8BitPro 2. I can say having the back buttons and learning to map them as part of your chorded buttons you can easily map multiple different commands to a single set of buttons. I like to use it to swap to specific items, even build modes, on the D pad and even the analog stick. Get creative and you can come up with ways to map every button any game could need. But if Steam really did bring support to map every button independently on the Dualsense Edge including the 4 back buttons. Then its the first controller on the market I have seen that has 4 buttons on the back and every button including those can be customized. Something no other controller had done, at least until recently. I know because I was trying to find one before finding the 8bitdo Pro 2 and even it the back buttons only map to existing buttons on the controller which I have learned to use creatively to make up for the lack of customization. Those back button may seem trivial, but play games with a controller that has back buttons regularly and learn to get creative with their use and it completely changes not only how much easier it makes the game but its less stress on your hands and muscles.

@tekgeekster 3 ай бұрын

I would love another controller with an emphasis on trackpads like the SC. Trackpad for steering amd gyro for aiming is great. But, joystick's ability to turn infinitely is also very beneficial. In quake, I can gain speed infinitely. But mouse is more flexible. Gyro helps with that, but slowly starts to fall short when trying to rapidly change direction. Therefore, it's handier to have a higher gyro sens, but you start to lose precision. But some people can go stupid high without losing it. It's nuts.

@carlosbarreto4695 3 ай бұрын

The Steam Deck definitely brought a new era for controllers: not only one but two trackpads and four rear buttons. I really hope Steam will release a Steam Controller 2 that is _at least_ as good as the Steam Deck, if not better. And for $200+ controller, having just 2 rear buttons is quite disappointing, not to mention that the touchpad doesn't seem to be as good as the Steam Deck.

@tekgeekster 3 ай бұрын

Like I mentioned, you can use the FN buttons below the sticks as extra inputs. They register as separate inputs. 4 on the back would be nice, but with how cramped traditional controllers can get, I personally don't mind if there's only 2 on the back. If it were bigger, and was conscious about button placement for gyro users, then I can see 4 buttons being more useful. The trackpad is a slight letdown in comparison to the deck, but considering the decks trackpad placement, I don't use them outside weapon and item wheels compared to the trackpad focused steam controller.

@@tekgeekster You might use those buttons, but having them on the back is much better because you can use your thumbs for the joysticks, trackpads and/or face buttons while use your ring fingers and little fingers on the rear at the same time (I'm doing this in the game that I'm currently playing, where I created 4 Action Set Layers and 5 Virtual Menus for the right trackpad).

@tekgeekster 3 ай бұрын

I can see this being a bigger issue for something like an rts, where a trackpad is probably being used more often. And I don't think the DS5's trackpad was made with mouse control in mind. But in first person games, using a gyroscope frees up your right thumb to be able to use the face buttons easier. I'm not saying more buttons down below wouldn't be beneficial, I'm more concerned about the form factor. But for $200, yeah. More buttons back there would be appreciated.

@SeohnAranys 2 ай бұрын

Whats funny is the Steam Deck didnt create those, they ripped it from the Steam Controller. Which didnt do so well because it require you to learn how to set it up for each game. It wasn't just plug and play. All Steam Deck did was bring new recognition to an already perfect controller. Slap a screen on it and better support for the controller being preconfigured for games. I know this because I was a preorder buyer of the Steam Controller and got it on early release, and have another as a spare. Its my favorite controller and I have gotten really good at customizing the button configuration to work with any game. But I've had to reduce using it since I know it will one day break and there is no other controller out like it, so I only use it for certain games now.

Splatoon player here, been playing gyro since 2019 and I can't go without it anymore. The support on switch has been amazing and I've constantly been upgrading my controller over the few years with better and more accurate gyro functionality than the base pro controller. Ask a stick player to turn around in a game like splatoon or fortnite and then have an actual fight and laugh as you run rings around them. I used to argue gyro users should still get aim assist like stick players do (ironically not a thing in the games I play) but to be frank, I really disagree with that by the day.
