What controllers are you useing PC bros? I just bought this.
>>728919891Used DS5 for 2 years until it started stick drifting. Bought DS4 few months ago because i have heard the battery is better but its exactly the same. Gonna get new Steam Controller as soon as it comes out.
Pic related and it's kino.
>>728919891i'm using a controller from xbox one x, but i want to buy dualsense cause i've heard it's a lot better with haptic feedback and stuff
>>728919891>controllerwhy would you blow your money on such crap?
>>728919891I use the same. Why did they have to fuck up the D-Pad so badly on the Vader 5 Pro?
>>728920898SAAAR!!! URE GAME SAAAR!!!!!!!
>>728920898should I buy this t3 lite, sir?
>>728919891In using that one
>>728921029
>>728919891I tried my brother's Flydigi. I kinda liked its face buttons. Feels clicky compared to my Xbone's where it feels more like a rubber dome springy.
>>728920978Some games feel better with em.
>>728920151fpbp truke and same
I love this affordable wired controller. The quality is amazing
>>728919891Picrel works really well for me.
>>728921689how much?
i wonder what the gamesaar wheel controller is going to costi have no interest in racing games but that thing will probably make good spinner for arcade games on mister
>>728921789u want one? i want one
>>728921318You can get it for really cheap it's a great controller.
Thinking of getting this one, anyone has experience with it?
>>728921856Why would you go for this instead of the cyclone 2?
>>728921518>octo / octo 2sure>silksongnot in a lifetime. precision platformers are always exclusively better on a keyboard. having 3 fingers on WAD instead of 1 finger on a joystick or dpad trivializes the game because you can change direction quicker physically. putting the attacks on mouse also reduces physical strain instead of mashing X/RB/RT and destroying your forearm>hadesit has heavy auto aim when using a controller. half fun taken away. 8 dodge directions on kb is more than enough anyway.
>>728921885It's half the price
>>728921885its half the price of the cyclone 2 tho
>>728921943>>728921946Cyclone 2 on temu is like 30 or 40bucks
>>728921746less than $20
I am on the fence here. I kinda want to buy a controller, but I dont really play any games that use controller, so what do you use your controller for? soul games?
waiting for this meme controllerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCGWBtrjUIYand steam controller
>>728921973I heard 8bitdo has shitty build quality
>>728919891Been using the same dualshock 3 for over 15 years. Apart from some minor stick drift it still works well.
>>728920151i use a ps3 one but fpbp this layout is the best one
>>7289215182D games are better on arcade controllers or decent keyboards.
>>728919891Xbox 1/x controller The og 360 controller is trash. The joysticks are too slippery
>>728921907what about soul-likes?
>>728922006What where they thinking?
>>728922442unless the developer is retarded about menu navigation and displayed button prompts in the UI then MKB all the way.
>>728922691So u don't use controller at all, not even for mario/contra etc?
>>728920978Because it's more comfortable than kbm and with gyro the difference is minimal.
Why aren't you just using this?
>>728923069Cuz I don't trust microdick in the year two thousand and twenty five
i use an 8bitdo and its right bumper has been cooked from all the for honor i playedwhat recommends you got
>>7289232168bitdo is not durable.
>>728923069Because it's shit and the Steam controller will BTFO it at less than half the price.
>rubber grips >no tmr sticksinto the trash
>>728920978pointing and clicking is so easy it’s really boring after decades of doing it. t. eslop pro in the 2000s
>>728921689Shame that there doesn't seem to be a controller that's both wired and has gyro from 8bitdo
>>728921907what mouse and keyboard do you use?
>>728923246thanks
>>728922442Games in third person and racing are def better on gamepads, but the anolog input software on the wooting keyboard is pretty cool I used it in elden ring for a bit.
>>728923216Either gamesaar or flydigi
>>728919891This but it's a little too small for my hands and the angles are shit so my wrists hurt after a while.
Am I the only one looking forward to pic related? It supposedly works as a regular controller. Split pads are peak comfy you can play while moving your arms free.
>>728923216cheapest u can do is gamesir t3 lite, its pretty good for 10 bucks. And it does it job.
>>728923272>tmr vs hall effect Thats mostly a FPS fag thing. If you are playing FPS on a PC and are using a controller there is something wrong with you. Since keyboard and mouse rapes FPS controller fags so hard its not even funny.
>>728919891I bought Cyclone 2 not long ago. Can't recommend it. The buttons are so fucking loud.
>>728920978
>>728923941>>728923302
>good build quality >Quiet buttons>Has gyro>CheapAny thing likes this?
>>728924142depends on your definition of cheap
>>728920978I also have a couch. And my PC is connected to a TV as well as my monitor. And the couch is in front of the TV. Which means I get to sit back or lay down on the couch comfortably and play controller games. Can't do that with Stellaris but Iove me some brainless Megabonk after work, or Trails Chapter 1 remake on the weekends. And during a winter weekend? Peak comfy.
>>728924142Oh I want to add I don't mind wired since wired is cheaper. I also like buttons/dpad thats soft to press, my hands are very smooth and soft and prolonged gaming hurts my fingers>>72892430630-40 bucks. 20 bucks is fine too if the controller met my requirements
>>728923601I just wish they had managed to fit trackpads there somehow.
What's the best option if you want a playstation layout?
>>728924492Gamesire t3 lite/t3s/t4 pro
>still using wireless xbox 360 controller with proprietary PC wireless dongle after almost a decade at this point>both sticks are starting to become inconsistent in returning to dead center in certain directions>texture on the plastic has worn off meaning it feels terrible to hold whenever my palms get sweaty>battery pack only works because i crammed it with tinfoil years ago>still too much of a cheapskate to buy a new one
>>728920151fippy bippy although it's kinda ass outside steam because you need to tune it with DS4win, but i had both controller so it's no biggie
>>728919891This pice of shit
Anyone ever try or had scuf? Is their controller worth the price or it's just another razer controller?
>>728921907Cockwaffle
love this lil nigga
>>728924978wtf are you doing to your controller?anyway yea this is BiS, the shape/weight feels a lot more like the 360 wired one which is superior to the xbox series controllers made for child hands
>>728924978You've taken aggressively poor care of your controller.
>>728925394same thing happened to mine and I didn't treat it poorly at all
>>728919891I got the GameCube and PlayStation 8-Bitdo Pro 3 for couch co-op. Great controllers as someone who's stuck with the DS3 for years. Has real fucking rubble too when most modern controllers have this shitty little vibration instead.
8bitdo ultimate wireless 2/thread
I'm still using my SeX controllers. If I want an upgrade (once these break), I'll go with the Steam Controller.
>>728920978Because not every game is a fucking FPS dipshit
>>728919891The KING
>>728925043Not worth the price, at all. All the same problems, just 4x more expensive.
>>728920898Is the D-pad as atrocious as it looks?
>>728925394Another Anon here.I had multiple Elite controllers. The rubber grip WILL come off eventually because it can't take the body heat of your hand. If you play 40 hours a week or so I guarantee it will come off in less than 6 months. It doesn't matter if you have sweaty hands or not. The Elite 2 changed nothing except both grips are completely covered in rubber now so it will make it even worse than the Elite 1 which only rubberized the underside of the grips.
>>728921856Yes, it's pretty good. Very clicky, nice dpad for fighters. Only thing I dislike is bumpers
>>728925620Would be great if not for shit dpad and triggers designed to break
>>728919891Waiting on the Steam Controller. Just using an old Xbox controller for now.
Elite Series 2. I don't like symmetrical sticks so that eliminates a lot of options. The rubber on the left thumbstick is peeling after just one year but I mostly use it for the D-Pad anyway, I really like how easy it makes diagonals. I assume I can buy some 3rd party thumbstick replacements for dirt cheap anyway. I haven't really checked. I only use the thumbstick for 3D 3rd person games that don't ever require you to click on heads. Don't think I've played one of those this year aside from Rune Factory 5. I use the Dpad for 2D games and M&KB for games with aiming. Overall I really like the controller even though it gets shat on a lot here.
>>728919891I got a dualsense on sale for 30€ and the 8bitdo wukong edition for the same price. Before that I used a wired xbox 360 for over a decade until I couldn't fix the drift anymore. I rarely ever use them since I mostly play first person shooters or spreadsheet simulators
>>728925470What care? You just use it.It's not a car to change its oil and do scheduled maintainance every year.
>>728919891The one and only. Also looking to snag a steam controller like half of this thread, the old man needs to rest.
>>728919891I got the gamesir 7protri-whateverseems pretty good, works when I plug it in and it's got a bunch of extra buttons for when I need themhave not tried the d-pad out muchit and the face buttons are very mouse-clicky? if that makes sense? They make mouse click sounds and they feel more mechanical compared to how other controllers feel a little stiffer
picrelpretty amazing for 20 bucksgonna get a gabentroller when it's availablethis will go to my gf as hand-me-down, I guess
>>728919891Dualsense for general gaymingHori Fighting Commander Octa for fightan
>>728921718What is this, a controller for ants?
>>728920151FPBP
>>728920978What's the game?
>>728919891I'm not buying a controller named Game Sir because i associate it with indians too much.Also not Vader because it means dad
>>728927885>Also not Vader because it means dad>Darth VaderHoly shit
Too many but picrel has been my favorite lately.>>728920151I would still be using this if the micro USB port weren't so damn flaky and disconnected mid session.
>>728919891Bought this for 50 bucks and it's the best controller I've used by far.I was fine with my Dualsense but I got stick drift in less than a year. 80 bucks down the drain. Fk sony.>>728921029Apparently they fucked up the back paddle too. I'll just wait for Vader 6.. they also need to fix the deadzone on the gyro, although I don't mind personally, the only reason I'd upgrade is to get less stick input lag which I surprisingly do feel a little bit on the Vader 4.
>>728923601>>728924452A split fully-featured Steam Controller is an interesting concept. Dunno how you'd manage the ergonomics of it, probably have to shrink the trackpads at least, but I could see a market for it.
>>728923069Several replacements from Microsoft due to stick drift, and the Vader 4 Pro is better in almost every regard anyway.
>>728919891I may be some kind of psychopath.
I've been trying to pick between the hute42 r16 and the 8bitdo. Mostly for playing music games on PC. The rings and RGB are nice on the haute but 8bitdo has wireless. Any of you have bad experiences with either?
>>728930735haute42 is good, idk what music games youd wanna play on it though
>>728921907I had an easier time doing pantheon 5 all bindings in hollow knight on a controller, go figure
>>728931813Mostly dj max. Maybe lumines and tetris
>>728923253The Steam controller is only being advertised to work with Steam. These at least work with all PC games with Xbox controller compatibility.
>>728919891These and the chink handheld threads always scream third worlder to me
>>728925287Tried the Raiju and returned it.It just is way too fucking big.
>>728919891I got that one as well. Best controller I've ever owned, only complaint is that the back buttons are awkward.
When was it that thumbsticks changed their size to fit a literal childs hands? The xbox controller specifically is atrocious i cant get a fucking grip on that thing. Now i have to order fucking caps or grips. Fuck that guy who designed these
>>728933875Just add the game to Steam. Plus, I'm pretty sure the SC will work as a regular xinput controller without Steam. So it will work in any game that supports an xbox controller.
>>728919891Gamesaar cyclone 2. Going to try the steam machine controller when it's out.
>>728920978Playing a third person action game like dark souls with M&KB is trolling.
>>728923069I've had to replace it three times due to bumpers breaking.
>>728926131No? I really like it desu
>>728938270That's only really due to how badly control schemes declined in the late 2000s due to Microsoft and company taking PC control schemes, backporting them badly to consoles and then streamlining the development process of porting those ruined controls back to PC.Though Dark Souls is honestly so simplified for console controllers that I beat it with just a keyboard, because mouse control was broken, and the only thing that was bad was the absolutely janky platforming.
Any recommendations for xbox style wireless gamepads with silent keys?
>>728919891M30 for me.
>>728919891>dat feel when ChillStream will never return
>>728927134xbox controllers were always the simplest solution. only problem is they're more expensive than any other "normal" gamepad.
>>728939521Gamesaar (gamesir). Just don't get the ones they partnered with xbox to make, because unlike their other controllers, those can't switch to ps4/switch mode.
>>728939763with less features too
>>728936307Beeg sounds good. Shame it's Razer. Their build quality is somehow worse than GameSir's.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uO-Dz4GVFM&t=1m15s
>>728939912I've got Cyclone and it's loud as fuck.
>>728938270No it's not and you have no data to back it up>>728927771roboquest
what would be the best controller for racing games? specifically motorcycle gamesI mostly play MX bikes (a motocross simulator on pc) and ideally id like a controller where you can adjust stick tension and also adjust trigger tensioncause most aftermarket controllers seem to be designed around fpses (which is fucking stupid) and so they have extremely light triggers
>>728933972You can stick with your first party controller that uses archaic graphite tech so they can keep ass fucking you.
my xbox elite controller I got 10 years ago finally needs to be replaced, and only for the minuscule reason of the d-pad down button needing to be hard pressed to register. is there any controller that matches the quality or is even better than the xbox elite controller? series 2 seems to have more issues, and series 3 has yet to be revealed.
>>728943572A fake bike like in arcades.
Ultimate 2C. It's okay for the most part but I'm so over controllers.
>>728939763>the simplest solutionAnd also the worst.
>>728945079>the quality>xbox elite controllerQuiteliterally any controller ever made is better than that piece of shit. I personally recommend the Steam controller 2, though you'll have to wait.
What symmetrical stick controllers have the best d-pads?
>>728923069Seems like they break and fail a lot.
>>728945991Ps4, but truthfully nobody makes good dpads anynmore. It's the first corner companies cut because 99% of modern "gamers" don't use them beyond inventory hotkeys.
>>728936307>It just is way too fucking big.That sounds cool, I'll check it out. Thanks, handlet.
>>728943572Negcon, nothing else even comes close
>>728945548i thought about it and im probazbly not the only one, but in the context of motocross it wouldnt really work unless you have an insane motion rig that would cost twice as much as a real dirt bike anyway, and even then the simulation wouldn't be as good as say something like assetto corsa where you can easlily simulate a car cockpit to the point where it feels pretty much like the real thing and you can even use it to train for RL driving
I always search for the Apex 4 in these threads and no one ever mentions it. I'm starting to think I'm the only one on /v/ using it
>>728945991>>728946098The Gulikit Elves 2 has a great Sega style d-pad but poor sticks. They're supposed to be releasing another symmetrical controller with the same sort of d-pad called the TT Max but it keeps getting delayed.
>>728919891Going to keep using my XSeX controller until it craps out which might be never because I also have an Xbone controller many years older and it hasn't crapped out yet
>>728920978>if i post 1 of the 2 game genres controller isnt good on ill look like a smart guy!
>>728921907>physical strain playing video gamesare you a 60 lb twink chink? what kind of out of shape retard hurts playing video games
>>728921856My favorite saar I've used. I upgraded to this from the G7 and it feels great. Like >>728926443 said, the bumpers are more like the Switch Pro controller L/R buttons but I've gotten used to it.
>>728930735i have haute t13 which doesn't have rings but its pretty goodcool thing about haute is that their devices are really easy to customize if you are into that
>>728919891I've been using the Dualsense but Steam now supports the Switch 2 pro controller so I'll probably use that for some games instead. The Dualsense is pretty good if you like wired play or don't play for more than 5 hours at a time wirelessly, I think I like the ergonomics of the Switch 2 Pro Controller more but I absolutely can not recommend it for $90 when the Dualsense goes on sale for $55~.
Why is Steam Input only for DInput...GoddammitWhich is the best controller compatible with Steam inputThe pro 3 looks so beautiful, but I don't have Bluetooth and the buttons sound loud as fuck
>gamesir>flydigi>guilkitHow do I choose?Also I refuse to buy 8bitdo because of their company name banking on association with Nintendo. Should've called yourselves 8bitco
>>728923069Because I'm not paying $200 for a fucking controller that doesn't even have hall effect sticks.
Gamesir. Bought it for the memes, kept it for the quality.
>>728947358Go here, compare stats:https://gamepadla.comI went with the cyclone 2 because it and the 8bitdo utlimate 2 have the lowest latency, gyro, and support all 3 connection types.
>>728919891Good Morning Gamesir™
>>728947358I have the Gamesir Cyclone and Flydigi Apex 5. Flydigi is simply top of the line, probably the greatest controller available today.
good enough for me
>>728920978Action Games all play better with controller and PCfags who disagree are garbage at action games.
>>728920978sometimes i want to play games while leaning back and lounging and it's much more comfortable to do that with a controller
>>728920978Platformers and Action Adventures are literally unplayable on keyboard & mouse
>>728923069This controller costs almost as much as the series s console itself
I unironically bought a switch controller to play on PC. I don't even own a Switch.
>>728926131yes, they fixed it only in the licensed edition
>>728921856whose signature is this? i can only read the J. michael jackson?
i remembered being memed into buying this as a kid because it would make me good at gaming. good times
>>728925581i want to get this one but i already have the v2 of it
>>728919891>>728921395Which Vader is better?
>>7289514405 has tmr sticks but a worse d-pad apparently
reminder to not buy xbox garbage
>>728921395>No dinput. No rewasd support. No steam input support.Lol.
>>728955119I have a Vader 4 and a rewasd license. How's support on that?
>>728919891Dualsense controller, I'm surprised at how much better compatibility is. usually don't even need secondary software
>>728919891the same ps3 controller i got with my ps3 back in 2006
>>728919891I just found this.
>>728919891never bothered getting anything new. it just works>tfw controller is older than current gf
