which one are you using
>>721790108GameSAAR, of course
Vader 4 Pro
I finished dark souls 1&2 and nioh mulitple times on this motherfucker and i love it. I dropped it few times and something inside broke off but it works perfectly after what? 4 or 5 years at least. But i only use pad for souls games everything else i play on cheap ass keyboard and cheap ass mouse. My keyboard actually has metal sheet underneath and on the sides and when i touch it it electrocutes me a little but I don't mind i learned not to touch the sides
>>721790478you're filthy
>>7217901088bitdo pro 3i love the docki can't be dockless anymore
>>721790108DualSense for basically everything I can. Outside of the d-pad it's probably one of the best ones in terms of ergonomics, feel, and general quality even if it can get stick drift.Switch Pro 2 controller is okay but I feel like it needed to be horizontally wider by a tiny bit, and the Switch/Switch 2 Joycons are bad when you actually have to precisely aim. I don't know why they feel so bad for aiming but they do.Series controller is better than the Xbone one but man does it still suck compared to the 360 ones. Worse bumpers, guide button, and sticks in exchange for a better d-pad.
Custom one from Xbox
>>721790556I know and i don't care anymore. I'm just trying to survive for another month. Month afrwr month. Btw the keyboard i mentioned is made by tracer. You can see that the part that electrocutes me is brown. It's not rust because i was wrong, it's not metal, it kinda feels like metal but it's actually some sort of plastic weird shit. So it can't rust. But i am assuming electricity can still travel through plastic and it burns it? Not sure. Anyway i had the same keyboard before and it had the same exact problem
>>721790865And the triggers are shiny :D
>>721790108A Flydigi Apex 4 gamepad and a Mayflash f500 elite arcade stick
This is the perfect 2D controller.
This thread just popped up as my 8bitdo pro 2 controllers right most/cancel button died. Bought it on /v/s recommendation and didn't have any real complaints. Lasted 2 years and 2 months.
Is there any comparison between different gamesir controllers? I want something wireless and xbox shaped. I was looking at cyclone 2, because it seems to have HE and what not, and having a docking station sounds nice. I play FPs on a kbm, so I don't care for features for those, and a lot of reviews seem to focus on it.
>>721791979I can't see how they have higher prices than legit Sony/Xbox controllers, since when did third party controllers cost more?Even looking at >>721790639 its a similar price to the PS5 controller and from using the pro 2 version I don't see how exactly it could be valued the same.
>>721790108Guys, I need a silent controller. I can't stand the CLAKCLAKCLACK of the Xbox one I have now. I know about the Dualsense, is there anything cheaper out there?
>>721791762Whoops, wrong pic.
i'd recommend getting the switch pro 2 when steam finally gets supportbest controller i've ever held honestly. 8bitdo ultimate is a good cheap alternative
>>721790108Pac Man controller.
>>721791979https://gamepadla.com/
>>721790108You posted itThe white XSeX controller
>>721792668At least where I'm from, they are cheaper. Not factoring in sales or ordering from aliexpress/temu, where the difference can be even bigger. PS5 controller here is ~$78. Cyclone 2 with the docking station is ~$63.
8bitdo Ultimate BT for the past... idk how longNever going back to controllers without HE sticks or charging stand contacts (reduces stress on charging port)I owned MANY PS4 controllers, all stopped charging and also only lasted a few days.Every NS Pro controller I owned drifted.Fuck Official. 3rd party does it better.
>>721791762>d-padThis is only if you look at handheld controllers.An arcade stick or other stationary setup will always be better than handheld controllers at everything other than room-scale motion controls.
>>721790108My trusty 8bitdo Ultimate.
>>721793592What sort of a clack clack controller are you using? Not every 'box controller is like that.
>>721790865Cut your nails, if you have to go on an open water swimming event in cold water, you risk damaging your wetsuit when wearing it
>>721790890>trying to surviveCleaning your place is almost free. Considering the fact you play the same games over and over, your time isn't worth much to you, so all you have to pay for is water and maybe a drop of detergent.

>>721794124Thank you for your sacrifice.
Realistically, if I wanted a Series controller replacement that worked on my SeX what should I be opting for? I was considering a Cyclone 2 or something from Gulikit but I'd like to run that by you guys. Are they 1:1 like a Series controller ergonomically or are they a bit different? Working on Switch and PS doesn't matter, I have the DualSense and Pro Controller 2 for that, but I'd like something that also works for PC when I want to use Xinput. Gyro would be nice to have too.>>721793884>I owned MANY PS4 controllers, all stopped charging and also only lasted a few days.What the hell were you doing to the port to die that quickly? Mine all lasted about two years before the MicroUSB started giving out, and the fix for it is to just buyhttps://lectronz.com/products/ps4-controller-usb-cand then shave a bit of the charging port so you can fit the new port in and they work perfectly. I did it for both my DS4s and they work on my PS4 and PC just fine.
>>721791762I'm going to order one to use with my Saturn. Shame they don't make a 3D version.
>>721793920>Not every 'box controller is like that.Both the official Xbone and Series controllers CLACKALCK like mad. The ABXY and burger/menu/screenshot buttons are the loudest by far out of any major controller by a considerable margin, LB/RB are fairly loud, the sticks are the loudest out of the big three when they hit the ridges, and the d-pad is immensely loud. The d-pad in particular is the loudest part of a Series controller to such a degree you can hear it across a room even though your thumb is completely covering it sometimes.Switch 2 Pro Controller is the most silent controller I've ever touched, you can't even hear it.
>>721790108ps3 controller for platformersxbox controller for everything else
>>721790108Xbox Series controllers are the fucking best, too bad the USB-C output shat the bed and I will try to fix it, won't ever give MS anymore of my money.Currently using the Gulikit controller, has hall effect which is super nice, I still prefer the Series controller but it is what it is.Thinking about getting pic related, looks decent.

>>721794742>>Currently using the Gulikit controller, has hall effect which is super niceWhich one?Any got any opinions on Gulikit ES (Pro) in general? One review I've seen mentioned it's pretty quiet which sounds nice.
>>721795424Believe it's the max one.In terms of noise, I don't know, they are not loud at all.
I use a DS4 and a Logitech F310, depending on the game. Also a Hori Fighting Edge for fighting games and some arcade style games.
ps5anyway to use it wireless?i got like 2 bt dongles but none of them seem to connect to the controllereven with ds4windows
>>721795841My DS4 just werks. I've heard PS5 does also. Try completely unpairing/deleting it then do a manual bluetooth pair, no dongles and close DS4
>>721795934got no bt on my mainboard though
>>721795841Try DualSenseX and see if that works if DS4Windows isn't.
>>721796006>DualSenseXhuh the ui looks neat will give it a try

>>721796185Sorry, kid, I didn't mean to trigger you. We were just trying to have a nice thread about gamepads before you came in here looking for attention. It sucks that you don't get enough attention from your parents, but that doesn't mean anybody gives that a fuck that you use kbm.
>>721794742>Xbox Series controllers are the fucking bestI agree but they're generally too expensive for what they are.

Just an idea, but if you started using KBM for gaming you wouldn't have to upgrade from one shitty controller to another when they start drifting after 2 weeks of use.

>>721790108lol exactly this one, like 50 bucks. Around 3 years and still going strong
>>721794776I am currently playing Silk Song on an arcade stick.

i have an xbox elite 2 controller. i still practically only use my mkb setup though.
>>721797159Also any decent office space will be decked out with membrane keyboards and they feel nothing like those clanky mechanical ones. That guy is full of shit and is catastrophically an anti-kbm supremacist.
I'm using this fuck ugly piece of shitI bought it partially because of how gawdy it is, but honestly its a good comfortable controller
>>721790108direwolf 3. waiting for the 4, which is only shown on one shop as available for pre-order, so i'm not sure if it's real, but amazon no longer stocks the 3, so i think it might be.
>>721790653i really like the dpad on the dualsense. which controller would you say has a better dpad?
>>721797729Vita, Switch 2 Pro Controller, and especially the Xbox Series controllers. DualSense has insane false diagonals while also being quite hard to push onto and while I don't have this issue on the Pro Controller one guy said he had issues so maybe it's a lottery.
Is the Gulikit ES Pro good?
>>721798164gulagkit
>>721796285They’re expensive, but they last a long time. My original one is 8 years old and got used a ton, and is still going strong with no stick drift or anything.
>controller with batterieslmao
this one
>>721798393fag fingernails
>>721798335Good luck when your controller's internal battery dies.
>>721798443I didn't take the pic so I'm clear
>>721798478>batteries leakage
>>721794272>Shame they don't make a 3D version.This. Fuck I want a 3D pad repro so bad.
>>721793902what are those keyboards
>>721798164I bought one of these to use with Switch 2 recently.It feels extremely similar to an Xbox pad. Overall ergonomics and tactility are good. But my biggest problem with it is the triggers. They have a ton of travel, which is fine on most platforms with analog triggers, but works badly in Switch games which are digital.
>>721799286I'll buy it, then. I'm hesitating because all my official controllers still work, but I'm getting tired of symmetrical sticks since most games are 3D now.
>>721793832I ordered Cyclone 2 with docking station form banggood and with some coupons there it ended up at $45.45.
>>721797451>they are now putting screens on controllers

>>721798494>li-ion>leakageRoom temp iq.
>>721799137>keyboardsIt's a singular keyboard, split one. Called Silakka54. Very comfy once you get used to it. Allows me to position my wrists much more comfortably than a regular keyboard.
love this lil nigga like you wouldn't believe
Just an xbox controller, I think this is the newest one. Pretty happy with it, might grab another one in a funny color on sale just as a backup.
>>721800826I'm sure you'll get a lot of laughs out of that one anon
>>721798529Right? We've got retrobit (shit), retro fighters brawlergen (just a modern controller) and blueretro, but those are just modern controllers. I think I'll go with Brawlergen, at least it has six face buttons and shouldn't crumble in three hours.
>>721800245Dreamcast? Wii U?
>>721800997For me it's that control stick, it's just so buttery smooth in comparison to the N64 and DualShock sticks. Nothing else really compares to this day.
>>721800323Thank you my brother
I thought this fucker was drifting because it keeps moving the camera so I bought a new controller.Turns out you just need to update the firmware via a small app on Microsoft Store. Wasting 60 bucks mf.
>>721801985It's good to have a second Xbox controller tho
picrel. I think it's an odd shade of blue and thats why I like it. I had a 2006 skoda fabia that had a similar shade of blue. It looked kind of dumb, but I like it.
>>721797828i'm over xbox controllers given how quickly they break, so i guess i'll keep waiting for switch 2 pro Steaminput support to try it out.
>>721800826Why would you buy two controllers when you could just buy one that won't drift?
>>721799286>It feels extremely similar to an Xpox padDoes the shell feel cheap in comparison?
>>721802505What are you suggesting that doesn't drift? Also I'm not buying a product called a gamesaar lmao
>>721790108The Xbox One controller has a game breaking bug that causes unbearable lag when used with Bluetooth on a PC. Has this bug been fixed in the series X controllers?
>>721802568>I'm not buying a product called a gamesaarThen don't, I refuse to buy their controllers until they change name too. Just look up controllers that use hall effect or TMR sticks on Gamepadla.
I just want a Dualsense with a Saturn d-pad.
>>721802742It's just not possible.
>>721801425Don't know what you are asking, but my picrel works with Saturn and DC.
>>721802742I just want a DualSense with a Vita d-pad. Hell, I want any new Sony controller with a Vita d-pad, what the hell is their problem?
>>721802742I wonder is the saturn d-pad was just its size? I have one here and it feels mechanically like the xbox 360 one, albeit the rubber membrane is very old now.
>>721790108now: 8bitdo pro3before: flydigi vader 4both are great I just dont care much for the 360 layout of the vader. I might end up using it for full 3D action titles more in the future. dunno.>>721792668these chinkpads are all way higher quality than first party dogshit these days.they come with way more stuff too. they all come with docks and 2.4ghz dongles now. with first parties you dont get shit.
>>721803948Oh, maybe not. I just took it apart to have a look. The pivot is part of the outer case, not sure how to take that apart without breaking it.
>>721793893actually retarded and I say that as someone who definitely has way more hours on arcade sticks than you.
>>721804253If anyone cares, here is a picture, the d-pad itself is attached to that white cross, the pivoting feels like its between the outer d-pad and the shell.No screw holding them together, and I don't feel like prising old plastic apart.
>>721794272>>721798529Ipega make this monstrosity, the "Hillbilly Cat". It's no M30, that's for sure.
>>721791770Mine corrupted itself after like 4-5 months and won't boot up, shame really since it worked with everything
>>721804993Nah, I'm good.
>>721791770>Lasted 2 years and 2 months.Are third party controllers that bad? Even my old controllers from decades ago still work.
>>721805776>from decades agoWell, duh. Now first party controllers are utter shit as well.
>>721806140They are shit because they use potentiometers, but they don't break apart that easily. I got my DualSense, Xbox controller and Switch pro controllers 5+ years ago and they still work.
>>721790108Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 for World of Warcraft (using reWASD). It was given to me for free by Verizon ISP. It's not perfect, but those four back peddles really help modify all the front facing buttons.PS5 controller for that console. The also use the controller that came with the Xbox Series X for that console and Steam gaming.I have a cheap Chinese wireless knockoff Switch pro controller that works surprising well (ELISWEEN on Amazon). I got this for emulating Nintendo games (not Switch as i have the Lite)Only thing I need to get is a 3rd party game cube controller for emulating that for Twilight Princess.If your in a band, you need more than one instrument to play.
>>721790108I bought GameSir G7 ProEvery button sounds like you're clicking with a mouse and I don't like it.
>>721806918Redditors told Chinese companies to use mechanical buttons in their controllers and ruined everything.
>>721807035Its build quality is great and feels like it won't falter even after 10 years of usage, but why the clicks?There are "silent click" computer mouses, it would have been so much better if they used those versions for the buttons.
>>721807413>why the clicks?They just use the cheapest components.
>>721804256>Argument from authority over arcade sticksIt's simple logic anon.a d-pad is a solution that is only good on handheld devices and devices that aren't handheld can take full advantage of being moved or rotated relative to whatever they are attached to or resting on (throttle, wheel, flightstick, mouse) while providing actual feedback through said attachment, meaning that there is a huge swathe of potential missing from handheld controllers. This means that handheld controllers are inferior unless they take full advantage of actually being handheld by using unseated motion controls.
>>721806690>Only thing I need to get is a 3rd party game cube controller for emulating that for Twilight Princess.you could get the official one.
>>721808254didnt ask
>>721806918thats a modern meme trend I dont agree with either.the 8bitdo pro3 doesnt have the mouse click but its clicky in ANOTHER way.
>>721810704What do you mean?
>>721795841Steam has native support for wireless controllers, albeit without sound from the controllers themselves.
>>721807531the rest of it doesn't seem cheap at all>>721810704they should continue memeing into the silent mouse click buttons, i would say GameSir G7 Pro is perfect if it wasn't for the click sounds
>>721810739on the pro3 you dont have the mouse type of click, but the buttons do a clacking nose when you release them. its not as bad but feels a bit excessive compared to dunno, a PS2 or SNES pad.might be because they added the magnetic button swap gimmick.
>>721790108Dualsense. Best controller Ive had in a long time. The stick drifting caused me problems before, but after some cleaning it hasnt bothered me in a long time.Im sure there are better options out there, but so far it has been my favorite.
Why don't they experiment nowadays
>>721811054I use the DualSense every day but I don't like how wide it is due to the touchpad.
>>721802568ID RATHER BUY PAJEET GARBAGE OVER A NINTENDO PRODUCT
>>721804708i care
>>721804993I like that they brought over the shape, but the most important thing is the fucking sticksomebody please recreate that fucking saturn 3d pad
>>721806918I was gonna buy the wireless version of this for Xbox but it only comes in that ugly Wuchang color instead of the white so I'm still waiting.
>>721808254Oh my god not you again you fucking faggotPlease don't tell me you're going to be in every fucking controller thread, at least put on a trip
>>721811054Why don't you do a hall effect or TMR mod? It costs less than $100, or $20 if you do it yourself.
>>721790478you are a disgusting pig
>>721790108Any one here has the Mobapad Huben 2?I am very interested in this one. I wonder if it is better purchase than Gamesir G7 pro and 8bitdo alternatives.
>>721811374Fuck I love black and white buttons please bring them back
>>721790108On PC? Usually an Xbone controller. For consoles I use the OEM ones, which in the case of Snoy are defective pieces of shit.
8bitdo ultimate(switch layout)wish i got the xbox layout since its abit annoying when i plug it for steam. would ideally want a 8bitdo with ps5 buttons tho, tragically it doesnt exist
>>721790108Still waiting for the Gulikit TT Max
>>721796328you are legitimately just fucking lazy. im a registered nurse and work hard as shit yet have time for gym, socializing and keeping my place clean. helps getting me to sleep like a baby too as im genuinely sleepy by the end of the day.
All I want is a dualsense rip off with hall effect sticks and a decent battery life that I can use on PC and PS5 without issue but everyone always uses the Xbox/Switch stick layout.
>>721812141Mod a dualsense, it's that simple.
>>721812198No, the stock Dualsense is a piece of shit. I'd need to replace almost the entire thing.
>>721812297>I'd need to replace almost the entire thing.Then do it. I'm dead serious.I love the Dualsense too and I modded the shit out of mine. TMR, colored face and home buttons, tightened the sticks, the works. If you want your own "perfect controller" you need to put in the work.
>>721812141I gave up on the symmetrical layout years ago. It's going extinct, so I had to get used to asymmetrical sticks.
>>721812119Stop being ableist.
>>721812451>It's going extinct,Nonsense. There's tons of chinese controllers that still use it. It's not going anywhere even if Sony drops it for PS6.
What controllers are a similar size and profile as an Xbox One controller. The Xbox series controllers are too small compared to the one, and I tried 8bitdo Ultimate 2C, it was also too small
>>721811839it's a shit ton of (de)soldering
>>721812589>The Xbox series controllers are too small compared to the oneI have both, no idea what you're talking about. They're identical apart from additional buttons and texturing.
>>721812451I'm used to asymmetrical stick: I own a 360, Xbone, and I use an Xbone controller on PC usually (mostly because I'm sick of spending money replacing defective dualsenses,) but I prefer symetrical. If I'm going to spend $100+ on a controller I want the PS layout.
>>721812660It's worth it.
>>721812119this is what white privilege looks like folx
>>721812673Maybe I'll have to compare to my friends side by side, it felt so cramped compared to mine. You know if the One had a revision? I had a launch model controller.
Black or white controllers?
Is the elite xbox controller worth it?
>>721790108I don't use controllers that much but I got the gamesir nova 2 lite and it's pretty good, it is quality stuff, save for the dpad which feels a bit off but not a deal breaker for me
>>721812960>You know if the One had a revision?Yeah actually I'm pretty sure it did. Mainly in the top part of the shell. Either way their sizes should be the same.
>never owned an Xbox controllerAm I missing out?
+dualsense for 3d and a Qanba Obsidian 2 for fightin
got this thing on monday. It's a little expensive for what it is, but it does feel really nice. I haven't been using it all that much honestly since im in the middle of playing dying light and im not playing that on a controller.>>721800245if the screen on the controller means i dont have to install the app to change stuff, im all for it>>721813001first party pro controllers are never worth it. more expensive than chink counterparts and somehow far worse quality control. either buy a regular xbox one/dualshock4 or do some research on chink controllers.
>>721813129You're missing out on a bare minimum of build quality. Snoy and Nintendo engineered planned stick drift into everything for the last 10 years but whatever your opinion on xbox controllers (not my favorite) they at least don't have a 100% defective rate if you dare to use it.
>>721813001lollmao even
>>721813001>swappable sticks come off accidentally all the time>back paddles are way too big and too easy to push (unless you remove them and just press in the internal buttons)>adjustable tension has been found to physically break the sticks if you tighten them too much>not even Hall Effect so they'll drift in a few years of useFUCK No. At that point get yourself an Apex 4/5 or Vader 4 Pro.
>>721813129Only pads I can stand using.
>>721811954i dont know about that one specifically but i have the mobapad m6 hd for my switch and am very happy with the build quality
>>721813129The softness of Xbox triggers definitely shit all over PlayStation's. The rest of the DS mold feels more comfortable and is quieter though.D-pad is a tossup between the two, I like both for different reasons honestly.
>>721790108Mine has finally got drift. I was closing 300 hours in Elden Ring.
>>721813547Which stick?
>>721813525I prefer the DS dpad and triggers by a mile. Problem is everything else about the controller is defective, chinesium, garbage.
>>721813602>triggersWith the exception of force feedback triggers (which are hardly used anyway) what do you prefer exactly? The way the hard plastic digs into your fingers, especially when the same force feedback is fighting your press and stopping you from pushing any harder?Xbox triggers imo feel much softer to the touch and have a nice bounciness when they retract. They might be the best triggers I have ever used.

>>721813206>>721813354how good is this apex one?
>>721813794I like the shorter travel and the bumpers much better.Like I said though the Dualsense is such terrible build quality (on purpose mind you) that it hardly matter.
>>721813274Xbox controllers suffer from stick drift too. They use potentiometers just like Sony and Nintendo controllers.
>>721813863How is this? I'm thinking of getting one in November.
>>721813001Only, and only, if you swap their made-to-fail potentiometers for a TMR module.
>>721814021Never noticed an issue with the travel, maybe you're more susceptible to that. I agree with you on the bumpers though, the Xbox bumpers feel cheap as shit.
>>721814047Works fine so far. Start and select takes a short while getting used to. Hall effect so should last too. I have their 360 one too but that has normal sticks but it feels really nice.
>>721814157How is the D-pad? Worse or better than stock Xbox?I wish they made these things wirelessly. Better yet bring back the Duke and add HE sticks.
>>721814024They don't get drift anywhere near as badly, or as quickly, as the other two. I shit you not I'm on Dualsense number 5 at this point. My Xbone controllers, and my 20 year old 360 controllers are all fine.
>>721814217Hard to say. I don't use it much but I would say roughly the same. It looks and feels better than that image though
>>721814269I appreciate it. The price is slowly climbing on Amazon so I'm hoping to grab it before it becomes too expensive.
I had more problems with the face buttons on newer xbox first party controllers.
>>721814232>I shit you not I'm on Dualsense number 5 at this point.Luckily my DualSense still works, but my friend had to buy three Xbox controllers due to stick drift. I wish companies would just move to HE or TMR.
>>721814332What do you mean?
>>721814423Either double input or no input.
>>721814415>I wish companies would just move to HE or TMR.Not only do they make more money from the planned obsolescence (so drifting is completely on purpose, by design), even if they decided to switch now it would be an admittance of selling faulty parts which would make them liable to replace every purchased controller in a given gen.
>>721814469Ah yeah. There's actually an infamous problem with the A button on literally every single Xbone/Series controller having faulty contacts. I forgot the full story but basically you have to push in just a little harder on the A button compared to all the other buttons on the controller to register input. You can actually try testing this yourself. It sucks.
>>721813503Yeah, it looks premium and has the all-new capacitive sticks. It has almost everything I want, the only things missing are a recharge base and adjustable tension.
>>721814469>>721814659So that's why my A button randomly gets fucked up sometimes
>>721814824It doesn't help that the actual buttons themselves are hard as shit and super uncomfortable to press. God I fucking hate Xbox face buttons.
>>721790108Xbox black controller with wireless adapter for PC
>>721814894Yeah I don't like them either, but I still use xbone on PC because I hate stick drift and 2 hr battery life even more. I'm just fucking done giving snoy money at this point.
>>721814332I had more issues with the RB button, it keeps breaking.Since the release of Dark Souls, more and more games have used it as the primary button for attack/run/evade/parry. I don't think the RB was designed for such heavy use.
>>721815103Yeah I use my SeX controller a lot too. I basically have to tolerate the buttons digging into my thumbs. They are so goddamn bulbous and turn my thumbs into swiss cheese by the end of a session.
>>721796843You can change them on the fly, and you don't have to worry about them exploding since you can always get AA rechargeable batteries. If you disagree, then you should try charging PS3 controller.
>>721815249>it keeps breaking.How many Xbox controllers have you owned?
>>721800289>Not enloop profag
Are Xbox face buttons closer to each other compared to PS buttons?
>>721796843If you own an Xbox controller do yourself a huge favor and buy thisNo more buying new batteries as it juices like a PlayStation controller, but the difference is it dies in 3 days instead of 3 hours. You can still swap it like regular batteries too. It's basically the best of both worlds.
Why hasn't the EU sued all consol manufacturers over their intentional defects yet? The EU sues everyone.
>>721815917No they're both positioned to be even diamond shapes. It's been like this since the PS4/Xbone days.
>>721816063File a complaint, be the change you want to see nigga.
>>721816045>3x the price of 4 enloops pro that you can quickly swap and also has lower capacity. Kill yourself.
>>721816063Politicians don't know what a controller is.
>>721816161I don't live in that shithole, I just like when they fuck with vidya companies.
>>721816171>can't even greentext properlyyngmi
>>721816045I would still argue two sets of rechargeable batters and charger are a better option.
>>721816210>I don't live in that shitholeMe neither>I just like when they fuck with vidya companies.Me too. Someone get a new Ross to crusade this shit.
>>721816225It was a misinput. Calm down anon
>>721816234I use AA batteries for a lot of things. I can't be assed.A battery pack specifically for the Xbox is only used for that Xbox, effectively converting your Xbox controller into a DualShock style battery solution.
>>721815883I said it keeps breaking because it broke again after I replaced it with a new RB button. I have owned three Xbox controllers. The 360, the One and the Series. This, and stick drift, has only happened with the Series controller.
>>721816582Oh shit. Why don't you just buy a new controller? Maybe the mold is the problem rather than the button.
>>721799286Doesn't it have analog-digital switches like KK3 Max?
>>721816045>After paying $65 for a controller with features stuck in 2005, you should also pay an additional $20 for a rechargeable battery for that controller.
>>721817105No.
>>721817105>analog-digital switcheslets not call them that please, they're trigger locks
>>721817184Unironically yes
>>721796060>swear my entire life in playing fps games with m+kb>try it once with a gamepad>get instantly motion sick due to camera movement even with max camera speed, the stick just isn't enough to control the camera in a fast way
>>721816045>>721796351lmao sometimes I forget that microsoft still rip off retards with the lack of batteries.
>>721790108DualSense with TMR switches. Indestructible, and everything else is trivial to maintain.
>>721790108Bow down to the modularity God.Joystick module, cross key, face buttons, stick cap, face plate can all be replaced.
>>721818606this is the one that comes with all those funky dpads right?
>>721818704It comes with four additional d-pads, including an analogue stick for it, but it also has the conventional cross.
Is the Switch 2 Pro Controller worth it? Does it work on PC?
>>721790108That one, actually played something recently that uses trigger vibration and I like it.
>>721818987Yeah hahaha that top right one is so weird. I saw a review of it a while back.
>>721819054Impulse triggers. I like it too.
>>721790108Bought one of those 8bitdos because of everyone shilling it on here. Works pretty well so far.
>>721819235Are the buttons loud?
>>721818037They're good gamepads, but overpriced. Safe bets if you don't know much about gamepads and want just the plug-and-play experience.
>>721806918>>721807035>>721807413Just use silicon lube specifically designed for microswitches, you useless retarded zoomers. Fucking mongoloid generation.
they really didn't put much effort into this despite it being the 30th anniversary, but i have it regardless
>>721820180how much you want for it give me a price
>>721819271Not silent but way quieter than the cheap knockoff xbox 360 controller I had before
>>721820378hows the dpad?
>>721790108I use a lot of different ones on my PC, but what I've been using the most recently is just a PS2 controller via usb adapter and a Gamecube Controller via Nintendo's official adapter.
Grok optimize this post to be less wordy >>721820527
>>721820216not for saleyou don't really want it anyways
>>721820672>>721790108I mainly use a PS2 controller with a USB adapter and a Gamecube controller with Nintendo's adapter on my PC.
for me? it's the gamesaar
>Xbox controller keeps disconnecting via cable>Swap out cable>Still disconnecting>Try back up Xbox controller with texture I hate that I bought because it was on sale and looks cool>Works fine indicating the problem is the good controller's USB port.Ree, I bought a Blu-Tooth adapter so I guess I should set that up even if I fucking hate battery swapping for something I'm feet away from.
>>721820815Thank you Grok :)
>can't turn off led or dim on pcI can't fucking believe itWhy is Xbox and Microsoft so retarded sometimes
Do you still need a degree in Windows Drivers and shit to use a Duel Shock controller on PC? Do you still have to install that fuck-ass DS4WIndows shit?Why can't these controllers just be plugin-play?
>>721821048works on my machine>>721821096no and no
>>721821048>sometimes
>>721821096Unless you use Steam Input or DS4Windows, you can only use Sony and Nintendo controllers in game that support them.
>>721820842I hope that GameSaar will release a G7 Pro equivalent that is free from Microsoft restrictions.That Xbox shackle is holding me back.
>>721821096>Why can't these controllers just be plugin-play?But they are, on my Linux gaming machine.
>>721821096>whyXinput
>>721820483has a bit of play but I don't think there's anything wrong with it mechanically
>>721806918>Gamesaar has some poo on the right stickLmao. Also that plastic looks cheap as fuck as usual.
>>721821048Xbox controllers are, literally, stuck in 2005. Microsoft refuse to invest a single dime in improving the features of that piece of shit.By failing to update or give a damn to their input API, they are holding back developers, who cannot, by default, designate actions to back buttons or gyroscope. Players also have to deal with ancient potentiometers.
>it's really called a gamesirlmao
>>721822284please redeemunironically though these are good controllers and they kinda came out of nowhereI recently got one of their phone-controller things and they're pretty good for when I emulate games on my phone, it even has pass-through charging.
>xbox elite 2 controller>meh>never understood bumpers/paddles/etc>seems like some shit for sweaty tacti-cool gamers >play halo infinite>to "mark" enemies I have to press a button on the d-pad, mutually exclusive to using the thumb-stick, so I have to do the crab-claw thing for a bit>waitaminute.jpg>bind a paddle to the "mark" button>can mark enemies while moving in parallel now>can even bind paddles to random shit like volume-controls/screenshots/clip-recording/etci get it now
>>721822616They're cheap, but they're not pretty good quality, I have one that's similar to your pic and first it doesn't work on iphone, and one day I tried charging while playing and started to malfunction and finally stopped working, I never had any issues with a backbone one and the shape it's much better for my hands, problem is that they don't work with foldables.
i kinda wanna add support for Gyro to my game for little mundane things like rotating a character pedestal or adding little parallax effects and such. not gameplay related or anything, just little supplemental cosmetic effectshow is gyro support on PC?
Just bought this from my local used vidya store for $38 ten mins ago. What am I in for?
>>721816045I boughted, no complaints.
>>721824932stick drift
>>721824932oh that was minei shot ropes all over thatyou might want to wash your hands when youre done gaming
>>721825045I'm the guy with 5 Dualsenses so I assure you I have already hit rock bottom in that department long, long ago.
>>721825065>*licks controllerMore pls daddy
So. Is Steam Controller 2 a thing or not?
>low latency>symmetrical layout >hall effect sticksIt just works. I do wish the cable was a little longer though.
Pass me the controller, bro.
>>721811839As some anon said, Im too stupid to solder shit. Besides that, its been working for a long time by now without problems. Might try doing so if it starts drifting again.
>>721790865>>721790925Clean your room you disgusting namenigger.
Still the best
>>721812119>im a registered nurseSo you're a narcissist.
>>721826805Not when the DualShock 2 exists.
>>721812119>im a registered nurseyeah? go do some tiktok dances nigga
>>721827095Probably won't even be current by the time my 360 controller dies.
>>721827095not when the gamesaar cyclone 2 exists
>>721827365not without pressure sensitive buttons it isnt
>>721827643do you really need that in 2025?
>>721817780Play with gyro.
>>721827746Yes Anonymous. I need it and I need it to come back to modern controllers too.
>>721825221Well, go to Steam and try to buy one.
Is the 8bitdo Pro 3 better than the Ultimate 2C? I have the latter and the dpad isn't as good as I'd like it to be, especially for platformers.
>>721829169Same d-pad.
>>721829169I like the d-pad on the pro3 and I think its better than on my ultimate. I dont have the ultimate-c though.
>>721790108for emulation and PS ports - dualsensefor everything else, some gamesaar, it's g7se i think?
>>721813001no, my experience with the elite series controller:the glue on the rubber started giving outrubber endings on 1 set of sticks brokeboth sticks started drifting soon after thatRB button stopped registering every press, same with A button and 3 out of 4 paddleseverything happened one after the other like a week after the warranty endedi just gave up on 1st party controllers and got myself a cheap gamesaar with backpaddles, works like a fucking charm few years and counting
