why don't you have one?
Because buying pointless bullshit I don't need isn't even making me momentarily content anymore
>>108804410I want a game controller that isn’t tied to steam so I can play pirated and gog games.I’m open for suggestions on gamepads.And built to last too as joystick drift has scared me from all the switch reports.
gaming is a waste of time
The only controller I like is the PS3 controller.I would buy this if it didn't have the touchpads though
>>108804410I already have like 10 controllers
>>108804410For me, it's the Skirk controller~
Not available in my region
>>108804410I fucked up and bought a controller instead of a box
>>108804410another faggot fetishizing objects and behaving mine a groupie
>>108804435Touchpads are amazing, only reason I got one. I'm wearing through the touchpads on my old one and this one is pretty nice.
>>108804410I don't buy new hardware on day 1, I wait to see if it's a mistake before wasting my money.It looks promising so far but time will tell.
>>108804410because my xbox controller just werks
>>108804410I don't need another controller. Also >>108804491
>>108804410You can get GameSAAR for half the price.
>>108804410Symmetrical thumbsticks are for Basednoy faggots. That's why.
>>108804511Why aren't the ERIGN letters of your keypad worn down while the others perfect?
>>108804439make it 11>>108804516you can get rid of your old one. this one is better.>>108804511lmao. he bought the unreliable pos version of the xbox controller with all the issues. haha. >>108804521yeah and it's worse.>>108804522tmr sticks aren't tho. no gyro and no trackpads is xbox propaganda. i use the left trackpad is a dpad because i got used to it being down there.
I might've boughteted it but the shilling makes me not want to.
>>108804530>much gayrolearn 2 aim fag
>>108804542>he defends thumb stick and aim assist aiminglmao.
>>108804549we use mouse here nigger, get out
>>108804555>>108804511controller thread. get out. make your own one.
>>108804410Why do I need one?Nobody was this excited for the original steam controller.
>>108804558this one is actually good since all the steam deck users made profiles for their decks which can now be used for the controller.
>>108804556only retards would play shooters with a controller
>>108804564not every game that needs aiming is a shooter ,cod baby.
>>108804567you aim with a mouse not a controller
>>108804562>this one is actually goodWell there you go then, I never needed a steam controller when the original released, I still don't need one so even though the controller has improved to a higher standard, I am not going to buy it until I get a real reason to buy it.
>>108804575Ok sybau then
>>108804569don't want to play everything with a mouse and keyboard.
>>108804577Get run over head-first by a car you fucking cuck
>>108804581if you want to use an inferior input that's fine by me, just don't shill trash here
>>108804590my thread. go shill somewhere else for your unkomfortable gaming experience.
>>108804595waving your aims in the air is the unkomfortable gaming experience retard
I have enough controllers already.
the last game i used a controller for was elden ring four years ago
>>108804601Nope
>>108804622cope
>>108804410But I do. Two of them, in fact. Going to probably sell my Series X controller because of them, in fact.
>>108804424>I want a game controller that isn’t tied to steam so I can play pirated and gog games.>add non-steam game to library>steam input just werks
>>108804558Because the original controller was complete garbo outside of a HTPC mouse/keyboard function.>Make a controller>Only one goddamn stick>in 2013+13.>"BUT THE TOUCHPADS WILL EMULATE STICKS AND D-PA--"Fucking clowns. At least they learned with the Deck. My only issue with this one (like the Deck and original controller) is ergonomics. But it's NEARLY perfect.
>>108804651Name 1 game that is better to play with a steam controller over keyboard+mouse.
>>108804661Diablo 2.>REEEE BUT THAT WAS ORIGINALL-I don't give a fuck, just like you don't give a fuck, troll. Now kill yourself.
>>108804668>Diablo 2. Actually probably right because I remember it being impossible to select multiple spells with the UI.>kill yourselfNevermind, eat my asshole
>>108804661Factorio
i already have a xbox 360 controller bwo
no income
>>108804601>waving your aims in the airnobody is waving their arms in the air to aim retard. stop making stuff up because you don't have any valid points against gyro. this isn't a wii remote.
>>108804410It looks extremely uncomfortable and non-ergonomic. I like gripping controllers from the middle and bottom, not the side. I bet this thing makes your elbows sore if you're older than your 20s.
>>108804606nice collection. >>108804762it's comfortable and ergonomic.
>>108804752gyro sucks compared to mouse and that's a fact, cope and seethe
>>108804785not with that stick layout
>>108804786have you tried not waving your arms arround to aim? :^)
>>108804794prove to me that gyro can be better then mouse. show me one competitive player who won with a controller
>>108804791works for me. i don't care about stick layout. both the playstation layout and the xbox layout work.
>>108804808Yet not for others
>>108804807show me your faceit level 10 account, scrub. >>108804814i take it the 1% of autists who care about it. where is your xbox?
>>108804819>show me your faceit level 10 account, scrub.I asked first>i take it the 1% of autists who care about itthe Xbox series controller is the most popular controller, amazon proves this
>>108804424>isn't tied to steamLoonix bros we won
>>108804829just prooves that they are garbage since most of the comments are that they had to return them.
>>108804424Xbox series controller with tmr stick mod
>>108804854now post the sony comments
>>108804856and the rechargeable battery kit ks silver sticks are the best ones since they feel factory
>>108804863just as bad. that's why i don't have one from them >>108804785
>>108804870fair point, sony makes some of the worst controllers
>>108804410I only play civilization 5
>>108804880early ps3 controllers had hall effect sticks.
>>108804891bad stick placement and no analog triggers
>>108804893you don't have to replace hall effect sticks and they had analog triggersnintendo controllers don't have those >>108804785my 8bitdo controller disables analog triggers if i use it via bluetooth because the real pro controller doesn't have those.
>>108804906no, only the ds4 and dualsense have analog triggers
>>108804922
>>108804931i used a ds3 before, the triggers aren't analog
>>108804410use case for grope pads?
>>108804937must have been a fake one or some software setting. all of mine had analog triggers.
>>108804636>sell my Series X controllerwho would buy your used controller and how poor are you that you'd take the time to find them lel
>>108804942does this look analog to you?
>>108804951does it matter how it works? the only thing that matters is how it works. those pads are used to measure pressure instead of contact and therefore they are analog. the ps4 controller still uses almost the same tech btw.
>>108804967*looks
>>108804410I already own the best controller ever produced
>>108804976*sticks start to drift**micro usb slot breaks**battery dies*
>>108804410I don't want one. I already have a wired controller I rarely use on PC, a wireless one I only use on plane trips, and a switch pro one I don't use at all anymore. I don't need another controller.
>>108804982I've had mine for 8 or 9 years now, still works like the day I bought it
>>108804951almost all of the ps3 controller buttons are analog btw. it's the most analog controller on the market since all of its buttons are pressure sensitive. the ps4 controller just switched to a hinge + pad design to make it feel better.
>>108804967>those pads are used to measure pressureexcept they can not, that why games like midnightclub los angeles uses the right analog sticks for gas
>>108804976>shitshock4kekekekekekekekekekekekekekek
>>108804994are you retarded? that was a choice of the game developers. does this make the ps4 controller also not analog since it also uses pads in the triggers? >>108804967
>>108804606are those wireless gamecube and n64 controllers? Thats fucking disgusting dude you should be ashamed of posting that, of owning them
>>108804989you must have not used it for long i take it. all of the ps4 controllers from my friends have stick drift and micro usb issues.
>>108804999wrong, the xbox 360 version uses the triggers for gas and braking so it's not a game issue
>>108805003this is a v2, your friends probably had OGs
>>108805004so you are actually retarded.>>108805005still garbage without usb c and good triggers.
>>108805005still gets mogged by a xbox controller btw
>>108805010that is the only thing the xbox has going for it.
>>108805004https://youtu.be/nzmAbrDwZf4?t=45that is the same tech that the ps3 controller uses in it's triggers.
>>108805010trust me dawg if I had bought an xbox controller 9 years ago it would not be working today. The japanese they produce good quality electronics, the amerifats produce bad quality goyletronics
>>108804951That's a pressure sensor, you retarded brown faggot. You'll note that it looks completely different to the non-analogue pad for the L1/R1 buttons. The Dualshock 3 even has analogue face buttons, let alone triggers.
>>108805015>better build quality>better stick layout>can swap out batterieswrong
>>108805027>calls that thing "analog"lmao
>>108805030>>better build qualitynot really. it has the same issues.>>better stick layoutdoesn't matter. both work just fine. >>can swap out batteriescan't charge with just a cable. have to get an extra kit for that for 25 bux.>>108805033> t. subhuman turdwordler that doesn't know what analog meansas you said the ps4 controller has analog triggers but those just have a hing design >>108804967 with pressure sensitiv pads.
>>108804410why don't you kill yourself? imagine buying the latest bing bing wahoo toy that doesn't even bring any new technology for another dopamine shot in your pointless life and then brag about your toy on /g/
>>108804410My Chinese third party PS3 controller is good enough for my purposes
>>108805043you first. hide the thread and gtfo.
>>108804410Because I learned my lesson after buying the first one.
>>108804410I don't know ask these fuckers
>>108805033Fine, then the Dualshock 4 didn't have analogue triggers either since it uses the exact same setup, so please withdraw your erroneous claim that it did.
Because it's sold out

>>108804410I kind of suck at joysticks desu. :(
>>108804410i have the originalthe new one looks uncomfortablethey should have gotten rid of the stick, not added another
>>108805143show your old hardware. post hand. my old hardware goes to friends and family. you are selfish and hoard your hardware. you have no friends. you have no family. you have nothing. you brag about not buying new hardware but you are just poor. you got no bitches and you stack no paper. you disgust me. i am enlightened and make the world around me a better place. you can only destroy and drag other people down to your level. else you can't look them in the eyes. you are not enlightened. you are a parasite. look at your workspace. it’s not a collection; it’s a graveyard. and you’re just another corpse sitting in the middle of it. don't reply. you have nothing of value to say. i am the sun providing warmth to my circle. you are a black hole consuming outdated silicon and solitude. we are not the same species. stay in the dark.
>>108805160what is up with judging how comfortable something is by the looks of it? it's just a controller. like all the others. it has the same footprint in your hands.
>>108805166>german neetcuck calls other parasitesaren't you supposed to work right now for your muslim overlords? or are you brown yourself?
>>108805235work from home.

>>108805250>oh nooo the economy is going to shit>time to start another wa...oh wait we don't do that anymore.
There are no games that play best with a controller that aren't compromised by being made to work on a controller. I have a keyboard and mouse and a racing wheel which is all you need.
>>108804424if i suggest you one, the other anons will meme about it
>>108805258i have kb, mouse, csl dd, vr headset and a controllerthat is all you need
>>108805261wii u pro controller?
The SC2 is a downgrade from the SC1 simply because it deprioritises the right trackpad in favour of an analog stick.Trackpads are faster, more versatile, and accurate compared to analog.
>>108804410I don't have Steam installed so it's borderline a paperweight.
>>108805220>what is up with judging how comfortable something is by the looks of it?maybe in another 20 years you'll know your hands like i do
>>108805271>more input is a downgrade>better trackpads are a downgrade
>>108805276the pads moving from primary position to a tertiary afterthought position is a downgrade to anyone but primary console gamers
>>108805261Correct, but it's actually gamesir
>>108805278they are perfectly reachable since your thumbs follow an arc that moves from trackpads to sticks to the buttons. you can easily skip the sticks on your way to the buttons.
>>108805276It's the positioning. You can have a right analog stick, but it's worthless when you have a trackpad.
>>108805290Its not where your thumb rests though. Its like typing numbers on a keyboard with your thumbs.
>>108804410What can it do that my jalapeno ranch cheeseburger can't?
>>108805301It's a bit early for that lad
>>108805288meant to reply>>108805269
>>108805290above my head is "reachable" too, but that, like this, won't be comfortable for long periodstertiary position, not for me, for console users
>>108805297the thumbs reast arround this area if you lay them flat on the pads. that is true. but if i want to use the trackpads i would have to angle my thumbs and they would end up in the center of the pads.>>108805310the wii u controller has an amazing battery life.
>>108805317I'm not sure why you're lying, that isn't how hands work.
>>108805317why are you attempting to correct people that use pads primarily from a position of you not having experience using pads primarily?it's weird, stop being weird you little freak
>>108804470What do you use them for? Mouse replacement? I've got a steam deck and don't find the touch pads all that useful, especially given the touch screen.
>>108805326>>108805328
>>108805347a picture isn't stopping me from asking why you're being a little weirdo freak
>>108805353because i am right and you are wrong. you are the weird faggot who doesn't have the controller to test this claim.
>>108804410I'm not a scalperjoined the reservation I am not in a rush I have working controllers and backups for them
>>108805301make you less fat
>>108805356you don't use the pads primarily so you're not testing it eitheraislop doesn't win arguments you little freak
>>108804435cable connector for those kept breakingthe usb c ports do last longerpurely by controller tho: good taste
>>108804567every aiming mechanic is easier with mouseyou literally just click things
>>108805363>you don't use the pads primarily so you're not testing it eitherthey work just fine for browsing my desktop. that is the first thing i did with my controller. just use it on my desktop in lizard mode to find out how far i come and if would need a keyboard and mouse at any time.>>108805369i don't want to play every game with a mouse if aiming is only 5% - 10% of the game. i just want better aim when i need it. the rest of the game can be enjoyed by playing with a controller on a couch.
>>108805347The second panel demonstrates exactly what is wrong with the track pad position.
>>108804424grab a ds3 the best controller ever created
>>108805392yeah, you use it as an afterthought, so to you it's just fine in the afterthought positionpeople that thrived with the original used the pads and the stick was a shitty d-pad to them, so because of that the afterthought position is a deal breakerwe didn't want the sticks at all, the sticks are in the way to pad users, that's it, there isn't a need to try to convince pad users otherwise, it's just incorrect form
>>108804424It's not tied to steam, at least not on linux. You just need to have steam running and it works, you dont need to play the games themselves through steam
>>108804435based
>>108805393what is wrong with it?
>>108805365nta but ive never actually had a mini usb port break. tonnes of micros. i have modded mine with a usb c port though
>>108805418can you show that other anon that the ps3 controller has analog triggers?
>>108805405>It's not tied to steam>You just need to have steam runninglol it can't even work without steam running like every other controller? what a trash only retarded germans would shill for free
>>108805365Yeah it would be nice if it had USB-C and a battery indicator of some kind. I got a long ass braided cable with lots of slack so I don't think I'll have issues with it breaking on me. >>108805418That's actually so cool.
>>108805422how even? also i had a look idk where it is atm.>>108805443werks on linux without
>>108804410too heavy.if i'm going to play for several hours the last thing i want, is to notice the weight of a controller.obese mutts don't have this issue, they are the target audience and creator.
>>108805443it works but because of the trackpads it acts like a keyboard/mouse in windows and not a controller
>>108804511rofl what is that background? are you a faggot?
>>108805455steam ofc. max value of the triggers is 32767. i don't know where my ps3 controller is either. else i would have shown it myself.
>>108805466Dualsense works both as a controller and mouse without any middleware, that alone makes it better than this slop.
>>108805484it doesn't. you need some sort of service running in the background for the gyro to work and you need steam for the trackpad or some other middlewear.
I don't really see a reason to spend 100€ on a controller. Plus, I either get my games from GOG or pirate them which makes Steam hardware particularly unattractive.
>>108805460>too heavy.Wtf? Picrel? Halo?
>>108805502Dualsense has it's own kernel module that allows it to fully work without any bloatware on Linux, stop talking about things you don't understand retard.
>>108805638yeah on linux. that is a free for all.
>>108804410I don't really play games these days. The only game that I enjoy playing is Duke Nukem 3D, which I play with my keyboard only as I find the mouse rather unpleasant to use. Besides, I'm a student without much money, so I couldn't really justify such a purchase.
>>108805645based.
>>108805422NTA but here.
>>108805709ai fake! it can't be it has a rubber pad underneath!
I had my og PS3 controllers from 2007 and I was still using them until last year, when my last unit broke down. The internals in all of them started falling apart and rattling around. The USB ports on them became flaky too, plastic cracking, and triggers and sticks started becoming very worn and loose. Bought a gulikit kk3 pro and been very happy with it. Has hall effect joys and triggers like the og DS3's did, so I hope this thing lasts at least 18 years too.
>>108805717PS2 had pressure sensitive buttons as well. Sony figured out how to make rubber dome pressure sensitive buttons. Very few games used it. Pretty sure NFS hot pursuit 2 did.The PS3 controller all the buttons did and the L2 and R2 triggers were worked really well. The only problem with them is they were convex instead of concave like the xbox one so your fingers will slip off the triggers.
>>108805408The steam controller 1 uses the pad of your thumb, not the tip or side.I don't even know what you're arguing here.a) There is no reason for a right analog when you have a trackpad. Analog is objectively inferior in every single way.b) The steam controller 2 has objectively worse positioning on the trackpadSC2 was built to appease retards, it's that simple.
>>108805401>grab a ds3Where can I buy an original one?
>>108804424this user is an AI>>108804410this user is a shilland to answer your question, its just a bad and overpriced controller
>>108805271While you're right in that the trackpads have moved from a primary position, Valve has given everyone five years to get used to the new positioning with the Deck.
>>108805873>everyoneI don't think you know what this word means
>>108805821ebay, or cex would be a good shout if in europe, youll wanna take it a apart and give it a good clean though the grime that collects in these old controllers is super nasty
>>108804410BECAUSE I'M STILL FUCKING WAITING AAAAAAAAAA
>>108804424I used the DualSense on Windows and had problems with GOG and Repacks. I had to get DS4Windows... for Games to detect my Controller. (Simulated as DS4 or Xbox). I know, most people would simply open Steam, but that lead to double inputs, the other alternative was: adding games as non-steam game. "just use xbone" noo... I'm a gyro fag, I love gyro for emulation and single player games with aim.Idk.. but I hated it. I don't want to depend on shit. Now I'm on Gnu/Linux and my DualSense works fine without any extra tools, I can see the battery life and play any game.
>>108805932just wait harder!
>>108804410I already had 2 Xbox controllers and 1 GameSAARs controller. I don't need to suck Gabe's cock at the moment just because it has Valve logo on it.
>>1088044248bitdo 2c
>>108805927So basically unobtainium. Sucks
>>108805992https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/318211547454 not really theres a few boxed on ebay price isnt that crazy, box looks real but they did used to be faked, im sure you could always return it if fake though ebays good with that. oud probablyy wanna put a new battery in one anyway though so might aswell go with used and clean it
>>108805999Nigga for that price I can buy a dualsense
>>108806032theyre shit, ds3 is peak controller
>>108806045NTA, the only real difference between the PS1, PS2 and PS3 controllers from a comfort perspective was the body of the controller getting slightly thicker to accommodate the extra electronics and the different L2 and R2. Otherwise it was the same controller. Six axis was always a meme and sucked in every game it was implemented in.I've never used a PS4 or PS5 controller though. I stopped buying consoles by that point.
does not ship to czechia
>>108804410My 360 controller is still doing just fine
>>108804410I live in the 2nd world with no direct way to purchase one
>>108804645>anon is now playing emulator number xxx
>>108806167oh yeah i like ds1/ds2 also its just the ds3 supports usb so can be used with other systems. i have an adapter and use it with my switch1/2 and use it on pc if i ever want a controller there which is rare. i have a ds4 but dont like it as much and have tried the ps5 controller dont like that either, also dont like the switch pro controller. ds3 is just comfy
>>108804410i don't get the hyper, it's just a controller for 100$do people really buy anything valve puts their sticker on or steam sticker?
I play video games that do not benefit much from controller. In fact, controller is a detriment.
>>108805392Just use a mouse and stop being a winey bitch. A mousepad is not going to fix your skill issue.
>>108805393I don't know why you are sperging out over that trackpad/stick so much when the real crime against ergonomics that valve keeps making over and over again is the position of the face buttons.
>>108804410>why don't you have one?because the left thumbstick is in the wrong position
>>108804410I was fortunate enough to get a DS4 before the stick drift plague and have no use for anything else.
>>108804410I don't really need one, but I'm interested, because the Steam Controller would replace my Wii Remote, it's literally perfect for DS/3DS/Wii emulation and anything with Gyro.I'm intested in the 8bitdo Ultimate 2 as well. But I think I'll pass on the Steam Controller... because of the Steam Input requirement. But I'd definitely use it on a Steam Machine.
>>108804785Why do you keep lying, everyone knows it’s awful handling and offers nothing new. You brought it because you’re a fagman
>>108805741This controller is crazy. All the good features, good price and is basically the best pro controller, I'm just not sure about the input lag. This shit even has trigger stops, I wish the Steam Controller had them.
>>108806620>Claiming it’s a “pro” controller for wasting moneyMan, that’s not a game controller, that’s a toy! I am not gonna be part of the system, MAN!
>>108804410I paid like 30€ for this one. As long as it works, I will not replace it.

>>108807786Those are JAV actresses.
>>108804410I reserved one but I don't think I want it anymore, I literally only have SkaterXL that requires a controller and I haven't played it in years.. Xbox rip-off controllers are like $10 on eBay. Am I making a huge mistake anons? Its like $100 for one of these Steam controllers...>pic kind of rel
>>108804410i cannot buy a Steam controller unless it also has a Stroganov button like that Russian keyboard.
>>108804410I doas of today.
Couldn't get one at launch, don't care enough now that reservations are up. I'll buy one when my xbox controller dies.
>>108807701>unironically using the wii condom
>>108804410being forced to run a chromium instance in the background to use a fucking gamepad is a big no from me
>>108804424>I want a game controller that isn’t tied to steam so I can play pirated and gog games.8bitdo ultimate 2c
>>108804410because dutch are lazy niggers
>>108804410Because I'm not that much in a need for a new controller, the vidya I seldom play nowadays is M+KB.Instead I've spent like 6x-7x times more (haha) on a new keyboard I'm yet to receive. I type more than I game so treating myself to something good makes more sense.
>>1088044248bitdo or gamesir
>>108804424Gamesir is about the best I've seen as far as affordable third party controllers go. I know, the name is unfortunate>>108804410I'm too old, too slow. Don't have what it takes anymore to get in on first run electronics. Have to wait on the line
>>108804982yup. the design had some good things in mind, but on all of mine, the thumbsticks started to drift, the button under the left thumbstick started to give out, and the power cord would put pressure on the port, causing a wiggle. so, you can only charge it in your hands without eventually breaking it. im looking for a replacement for my last DS4 soon. thinking of going xbox oem or gamesir, people have recommended the latter even though theyre some generic.
>>108804410I have a 20 dollar wired ps2 knockoff for minimal latency and peak ergonomics
>>108804410because I have two (plus two originals).
>>108804410Bit too pricy for a controller that i'll probably barely ever use. Hell, I'm pretty sure the last time I used by xbone controller from pic rel was back when I beat Elden ring on release. Not a big fan of same-height stick controllers either. I really dislike whenever I have to use the right stick on the Steam Deck.I enjoy the trackpads on the deck a lot, but it's because they offer me a passable mouse replacement while in bed. I would never use them over an actual mouse.Man I grabbed my 360 controller for the first time in years for this photo and it is crazy how bad everything feels but the face and bumper buttons which are by far the best out of any controller I've used.
>>108804424Just get an xbone or series X controller during some sale or something. They are fairly solid and will last you a long time before catching stick drift unless you are playing 8 hours a day.Once it has drift you can mod ot with the new fancy sticks people are using now.
>>108805471my bedding and no, I'm not a faggot. I'm just a guy who likes cute stuff
>>108809259
>>108804424I love Flydigi's gamepads. The sticks and dpads on them are really good. I would say get either a Vader or a Direwolf depending on if you want mechanical buttons or not.
>>108804410Because I got this and still use it to this day
>>108809339I wish they had a dongle for DualSense too. Over BT its features are very limited.
>>108804410But I do.
>>108809360The dongle is just a Bluetooth adapter keyed to Sony's Windows driver. They supply the same functionality to Linux for free.
>>108804410I bought the last steam controller and used it twice
>>108805873Decks trackpads positioning is awful
>>108804420Right there with you. I'm figuring it out
>>108804410Why would I have one?

>>108804410because not even a month ago I bought a razer wolverine 8k pc for crimson desertand I'll be getting valve's new VR set with its own controllers whenever that comes out anyway
>>108809515Stop lying to yourself. You're either a faggot or a pedo.
>>108804410because mine only just got a tracking number today even though I was one of the first to buy the piece of shit

>>108809579you can use BT
Because chinks doing just as good or better for a fraction of the price
>using anything but m+k on a pcGrow up
>>108809593It's not the same.
>>108809398I have meant like the XBox controller, where the audio jack works wirelessly. Hell, on DS even the vibration is a hit or miss via BT.
>>108809652>why yes I like taking my VW van to a track every weekend
>>108809579email steam support and ask for a replacement if they have any left gathering dust in a warehouse somewhereyou might get lucky and they'll reward you for being an OG [spoiler](I have 4 original steam controllers, 2 still new in box from the liquidation sale, they're great)[/spoiler]
>>108809939I'm sure it's somewhere. I just had a look for it earlier and couldn't find it which means it's probably in a bag in the loft.I definitely remember seeing it recently and I never throw shit like that away.
Why do so many people lose the dongle? I don't get it
>>108804410> Be in an eastern European country> If is able to be imported, is at a markup> If is at MSRP, takes 3 working months to arrive> If it takes less, is because is actually a Chinese copy that resists 2 weeks topsFor short, availability.
>>108804410I do
>>108804410Been looking to buy this for months now but I was too slow before it ran out of stock. Tired of my E-waste razer xbox controller which vibrates on my desk uncontrollably. Since it works natively on Linux I'd also like to use it for extra key bindings for my programs.
>>108804424Have you tried not being poor?
I got to diamond league in rocket league on mkb, so I don't really need it.
>>108804427This. I don't even want to look at my library and acknowledge all that money wasted.
>>108809874Yeah that's why Sony is the best. DS 100% works with no proprietary software.
>>108810311No, it doesn't. The audio jack doesn't work wirelessly, and the vibration barely works in 3 games.
>>108804424
>>108804410I'm waiting for this
Still waiting for the email to get one..
>>108805001They are 8bitdo modkitted gamecube/n64 controllers yes, i use them instead of the official nintendo wireless versions for the NSO emulators.
>>108810356>The audio jack doesn't work wirelesslyGet a Bluetooth adapter that works properly with the controller. Broadcom and Realtek work well with DS4. Sony's adapter is just a bcm20702, iirc. Unfortunately Bluetooth is poorly standardized shit and Sony abuses the protocol to get decent latency, so some adapters just aren't going to work right.>vibration barely works in 3 gamesSoftware issue.
>>108804410I boycott any company that features trannies in their ads.
>>108810594Why?
>>108810603Because I'm a chud
>>108804410>doesn't work outside of SteamNo reason to buy it.
>>108805330Menus/hotkeys, thumbstick replacement, trackball for camera, I can finally retire my OG Steam Controller now that the new one arrived.No idea how anyone still uses thumbsticks, wish they were bigger but it feels more like a Steam Deck so that's cool
>>108804989There is no way that battery isn't completely cooked
Picked mine up today. Unfortunately I use Ubuntu 26.04 (gnome + Wayland) so this issue needs to be fixed before it works perfectly for mehttps://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/10442

>>108811612a controller is a controller. I am not convinced it is>not that goodsound like you have a fetish of steam but its okay anon you just like consuming slop.
>>108811559Does it come with a Valve/Steam sticker? You know how apple use to.
>>108811617the sticks are nicebuttons aren'tquality isn'tbluetooth isn'tsoftware isn'tshape isn'tbattery life isn'tthe xbox controller mogs it
>>108811598I use old laptops as tv consoles, you'd think the steam controller is practically made for me.The original was a terrible game controller and an ok mouse/keyboard replacement. It sat in a drawer for years until I started using it for my bed tv a few months ago. When I wanted a good game controller I got a cyclone 2 and after seeing the design of the new steam controller with that price I don't think it's worth upgrading my old one.Puck doesn't make sense for charging with the tv and laptop across the room. Sticks are nice but my cyclone already has TMR sticks for way cheaper. Triggers and buttons suck. It would've been nicer having a swappable battery like the old one with easier battery access than needing me to dock it while playing with low battery.It's really just an extra stick, dpad and back buttons with capacitive sensors all over compared to the og steam controller. A cyclone 2 for gaming paired with a wireless keyboard/mouse is just better in every way.
>>108804410Because I'm not a mindless Linux cultist who must CONSOOOM everything by that fat fuck gaben?
>>108804410>symmetrical layoutin the bin it goes>b-but the touch pad can-no
>>108811630No
>>108804785Nice intelimouse. I had one for many years, perfect ergos, but mine eventually died and I wanted something wireless. I have a G603 now which I love but it has double click and they don't make them anymore.
>>108812657the intellimouse is just for nostalgia (i also have the newer pro one but the scroll wheel stopped working) since it's the one i used to play cs 1.6 and css with. i still use it on my second pc. before i switched to the endgame op1we i used to have a g305 (which started double clicking) and a g pro superlight (first gen with micro usb etc). i gave that one to my brother because my hand started to hurt when i used it for a long time.
>>108811790>the xbox controller mogs itenjoy stick drift after a year and being FORCED to buy another>im blind>dont understand companies force me to buy new controllers>must be a coincidence they dont use Hall or TMR right?
According to the KDE game controller panel, my sticks appear to always have a tiny bit of movement to them, this isn't visible in Steam and doesn't affect games, is this normal? My 8BitDo with TMR doesn't exhibit this behaviour.
>>108804410I have some cheap chinese hall effect one that works very well and is xinput compatible. It's a nice controller, but I don't use steam, and you can't use this without it. I had the older steam controller, and it was a buggy piece of shit nightmare to get it to work with anything outside of steam. No thanks. Xbox and cheap ones just werk. Enjoy your overpriced proprietary bullshit.
>>108812853get some ks silver sticks. feel factory and a rechrage kit.
>>108812916it's a firmware and tmr thing. tmr sticks are "noisy" by design and need firmware/software tricks to quiet them down. your kde settings see the raw data of the sticks. the 8bitdo controller doesn't expose this noise thanks to its firmware. the steam controller filtered it out via steam for steam input to work.
>>108812932>instead of buying a controller that just werks (8bitdo TMR)>be a jew buy microsoft>just change the sticks bro just solder the whole thing good luck with not destroying it>just buy a recharge kit lol>yeah its just 80 USD now instead of 60 for the just werks controller but now you feel special right this is not consumerism this is innovation!
>>108812950skill issue. steam controller has all of this and more for just 100 bux + even better quality than the xbox controller.
>>108812939About what I expected but good to have confirmation, thanks anon.
>>108812958>all of this for just 40 bucks more>im totally not getting ripped offokay we get it you are a brown jeet, you happy?
>>108812994>>108812950>yeah its just 80 USD now instead of 60 20 bux + trackpads and gyro on top
>>108813012>trackpads and gyro on topuse case of this utter garbage?>but normalfags use it so I must use it tooits a controller full with gimmicks
>>108813025how should you know if they are useful? you don't have them? just go back to your nes controller. anything more is bloat.

>>108804410Because I live in New Zealand and Valve doesn't want to sell to us. Also, fuck paying scalpers for a controller. I'm sure it's a fine controller, but that's all it is, just fine.
>>108811559they sell v in australia? I used to love blue v back in 2011
>>108807754You wouldn't understand.
