how come microsoft is the only one putting good dpads on their controllers
>>729134380QRD? is that boogie?
>>729133526Why do you think Bill Gates was always on Epstein’s island?
>>729133526>microsoft>good dpadsEven that garbage is just barely evolved shit
I always see people complain about dpads and never get itwhat do you people want out of a dpad
>>729135810one that fucking functions
>>729134875psychotic cope
>>729133526>Good dpad>Connected buttonsPick one
>>729135810I want to press one of the eight directions a d-pad can input and always get that direction, nothing more and nothing less
>>729135810An actual dpad, so not what Sony or Nintendo make.
wtf, i just brought this exact one home and now there's thread about itam i in a simulation
>>729137858So the Xbox Series controller
>>729139796>500 million native English speakers>One of those people>Comments on about a game controller>On /v/ a place to talk about gaming>You happen to have bought athat controllerI bet you'd think you were in a simulation if you rolled doubles twice while playing a game
>>729133526They're good if you like loud clicky d-pads...
>>729141548I don't get the obsession with making everything clicky.
>>729133526d pads are dl
>>729133526It's pretty good and I don't mind the louder than usual click but it's not perfect. 2/3 times I have to do forward-up or forward-down the shitty thin plastic defaults to one direction unless I press harder which makes it feel too stiff. Every other time I come back to play my vita I feel a notable improvement.
>>729133526Do a shoryuken
>>729135810desu I grew up on PS1/PS2 so I do rike my snoy d-pads, but I will say out of other stuff I tried I was positively surprised by the Wii classic controller's
>>729135810>what do you people want out of a dpad1) not overly noisy2) in the primary input position (Playstation style)3) a prominent pivot so that you can't press down all directions at the same time4) Enough tension that you have to deliberately try to get false diagonals5) not so much tension that consistently getting DP motions are hard6) the dpad doesn't rattleI'll be the first to say that anyone who thinks the meme contra test is the be-all-end-al test is a fucking retard. A controller that you can't smoothly transition into a diagonal feels stiff in any game that isn't contra.
>>729133526get a game SAAR
I really dislike these Xbox dome switch d-pads because while in principle they are stiff enough to deal with it, they are super wobbly on the cardinals. On a DualShock 4 particularly if you press down hard on one of the main directions that shit is DOWN but the Xbox Series controller you can always feel it pivoting on top of the switch really loosely (in general the design has a lot of deadzone wobble which is weird for a d-pad) and I personally get some wrong inputs because of it, especially overshooting.It's also seriously fucking loud, like in the realm of arcade stick loud.
