Finally got my paws on it. After about 15 minutes it's super comfy to use. So far I've played CS1.6 and Civilization V with it.What games have you tried it with?
>>738342621Latency noticeable with wireless?
>>738342621Tried some Overwatch to see if it would transfer my keybinds especially for the back buttons, worked perfectly. I love the feel of the controller and the little Steam Deck jingle it plays when it turns on. Gonna try more games later when I have time
>>738342621you stole this picture from reddit you memer
Kill all scalpers
>>738342621>pawsYiff in hell
>>738342621missed opportunity for a cock tribute pic, just with a controller#lord Gaben bless.
'ick on 'oller
>>738343085>couldn't take 5 minutes to click at button>mad at those who didwhy are gamers like this?
>>738342621>15 minutesso you opened two menu screens?
>>738343601Not that guy but the system wouldn't process by transaction for 30 minutes and then everything was out of stock
>>738343974Nobody here actually plays games past the menu, based on all the screenshots I see
AAAA I NEED IT NOW AAAAAAA
>>738344157Should've bought steam credit ahead of time, dummy
>>738344804It was getting stuck on the step before that for some reason.I had to spam continue like 30 times for it to go through, because instead of using the queue system they already have they just had it set up first come first serve for going through to the payment step
>>738343974>spends 15 minutes on the menu screenEasy, grandpa.
>>738345215what if the thing you got stuck at was the queue system getting overloaded?
>>738345561gotta adjust the settings
Is it true it doesn't work outside of steam at all??
>>738346957You just need to have Steam running for the SteamInput.dll to work
>>738343601gacha induced entitlement
>>738342621sf6
>>738347058Steam just needs to be running, seriously? Don't need to add the game to Steam? What were the reviewers smoking?
>>738342621How was it for those games?
>>738343601My order was in two minutes before 10AM PST, faggot. WHERE ARE MY FUCKING CONTROLLERS? ANSWER ME
>>738342621Is the dpad clicky or mushy?How about the face buttons?How rough/smooth is the matte finish?
>>738347946Should've been Canadian
>>738347728>Steam just needs to be running, seriously? Don't need to add the game to Steam? What were the reviewers smoking?If you add the game to Steam, it's easier to set a controller profile. You only need to have steam running for the controller to work though. On Linux I don't think you even need to do that.
>>738346957>>738347058AHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YOU ACTUALLY NEED TO HAVE STEAM RUNNING FOR IT TO WORK?HOLY FUCK, I'M GLAD I DIDN'T BUY THIS TRASH
>>738346957You need to use Linux.
>>738348105Linus "$200 LTT Backpack for your $150 LTT Screwdriver" Sebastian says it feels cheap
>>738348479Linus is a screwy jew. He probably said it feels cheap because he wasn't paid enough to say it was amazing.
>>738344723>had important normie wage shit to do next work day and couldn't stay up to buy>ended up sleeping in anyway and ordered with 6-10 day ETAIt's not fucking fair bros
>>738348618Don't get worked so upside down, anon, it's just a controller.
>>738348105Dpad and buttons feel like the Deck's but a little firmer, feels pretty nice but it is definitely not "clicky." The Deck's were too squishy for me, these are a step up from thatThe finish is matte with a little bit of texture, more than the Deck which is really smooth. All of the buttons and triggers are smoother. It is similar to the touchpad texture on the Deck>>738348479>>738348553Feels comfy to me, I like the weight of it.>>738346957Works on my machine but then again I haven't used windows for years
>>738342621Mine barely got packaged. LOL! Do you have a Steam Deck and how does it compare to the controls on that. Have you tried any Emulators like Dolphin without Steam open and see if it picks it up well?
>>738348618Skill issue.I set an alarm for 2:57 and opened steam on my phone to the controller page before I went to sleep. Woke up, ordered instantly and was asleep again by 3:05
>>738348618I have two spares I'll sell to an anon at cost. Just cover shipping.
>controller>overpriced controller, valve :0you niggers are brain dead and deserve to be exploited
>>738351935>controller without features I want>controller with features I want :0wow it's so crazy
it's s good controller, what's the problem?
>still sitting on "packaged items"
>>738342621gayest looking thing ever and a good dust collector in a month
>>738352561People either base their entire personality on being contrarians or like being terminally angry and hate seeing other people being happy. There are fucking ass load of both of these people online.
>>738352715Maybe trying looking past your glossy monitors reflection.
whats the point of using a controller on pc? literally the only reason i ever use a controller is to play emulated games that are clearly not designed for kb+m
>>738352767kinda crazy to fight online over a piece of plastic lol, also the people getting mad about the drm makes little sense, it's a steam controller, it's gonna depend on steam's services
>>738352950couch gaming, think gran turismo or forza while leaning back in front of your tv
>>738342621>CS with a gaypadis this AI or a retard who never played shooters on pc?
>>738353017"DRM" doesn't even make sense as the controller is not restricted to a specific account. The software is required to provide functionality, not to authenticate ownership.
>>738352950I only play on PC, but almost everything I play on PC is arcade or console style Japanese games. As you can imagine, it's all made for arcade stick, controller, wheel, etc. If you're wondering why I'd want one with a trackpad, it's because I found out from my Steam Deck that I have pretty strong preference for using right trackpad over right analog stick in every game that uses a right analog stick. I also like it for cursor in ADVs/VNs.
>>738352950Part of the main reason PC is better than consoles is because you can choose to play games with the input device you want. Keyboard and Mouse, Controller, VR headsets, flight sticks, racing wheels, even things like using bananas or slabs of raw meat. Im sure someone could even figure out a way to play games with their actual penis as a joystick if the wanted.
>seattle chad>still has packaged status How about i just drive over and pick it up? People who live nearby should have the option. Now aussie cunts are getting it before me, a burger who lives nearby! Insanity!
>>738353202>CS with a gaypadI used to know a guy who had 4k hours in CS:GO and the psycho used a fucking xbox controller to play ranked. I dont know why you would choose to torture yourself by playing that way, but those people exist. At least the Steam Controller has trackpads and gyro.
>>738352950It's for sending inputs to your computer.
>>738353314>yes, it would make sense for their warehouse to be in this expensive office space location based retard
>>738353314I thought their hardware factory/warehouse was in Indiana or Illinois. You might get Gabe to personally deliver your controller though!
>>738353575Its still likely near Seattle. Just much further outside of the city where all the other warehouses are.
why
>>738353779Gabe won't deliver it to me. He wouldnt dare. But if he does ill post a pic of us on here and ask him any question with an end post of 5
>>738354091Half-Life 3 when?
>>738354028canadians gotta pay more taxes so your healthcare can advise people to kill themselves
>>738353810if they kept it local it would be in one of the neighboring cities east through the hills via I-90, or perhaps up north/south.lots of places avoid seattle (started to wind down just before covid) for tax reasonsBellevue, Renton, Bothell, Redmond, to name a few.>googlesnah valve itself is already in bellevue (popular choice to avoid seattle's scum) not seattle.their shit aint gonna be local.
>>738342772we've had benchmarks for weeks, from memory it's better/same as other wireless controllers on Bluetooth.and better than most if you use the puck.
>>738344723im in Brisbane and mine hasn't even shipped yet, did you stay up till 3am? I bought mine in the morning.
>>738342621>pawsYiff in hell, furfag.
>>738342621Mine has a huge screen between the analogsI think I got the better deal, op
>>738347058is that true? didnt GN try to play fortnite and shit and it wouldnt work because those werent launched through steam?
>>738342621how does it handle demanding games like chrono trigger?
>>738343601>why are gamers like this?I heard they blame the lag
Don't need it. I have a Gamesaar, sir.
gaben please ship...
>>738360861good morning gamesir.
>>738342772It’s faster than a wired Xbox controller.
The puck is a genious 2-in-1 invention. I'm puzzled why nobody else thought about it. Hell, many controllers come with a charging station so why was there no wireless receiver in it.
I got my order in 2 minutes after 10AM and it JUST hit packaged items what the FUCK
>>738342621timestamp
>>738358435see>>738350102alsoI GOT IT FUCK YAS
>>738363980>already covered in dust and cat hairClean you room, anon.
>>738364675That's the kitchen bench and that was like a second after opening, I think it came like that, kinda regretting my purchase now
>tracking link is brokenfucking auspost, I probably have to wait another 3 days until my controller arrives.
>>738342621Do you live in Valve HQ? How did it ship so fucking fast
>>738365367insane ping, insane bugs, insane women and insane shipping. when will australians catch a break?
Mine JUST got packaged today, what are the odds I get this thing this week as a 3-5 day window nigga?
>>738347728You also need to add games and emu to steam to configure the controller
>>738352561>hardware DRM is good for you and should be normalizedTruly go kill yourself right now
>>738363980Noice, mine still hasn't budged. Are you using windows or linux?
AHHHH EXPLODE EXPLODE EXPLODE
>>738346957Dolphin, PXSX2, Duckstation, and RPCS3 recognize controller without Steam running.
Played Half-Life 2 with it. Didn't really have a good experience with it. I'll just stick to mouse and keyboard for shooters.
>>738346957LinuxGODS win again
>>738366475On linux only?
>>738368803Windows as well.
>>738367408Mamma mia
>>738366475>without SteamNah, it doesn't work
holy shit faggot tranny keyboard, show us your feet and tummy little tranny
>>738342621Unc really boughted controller to play cs1.6 :skull:
>>738370569Yes it does.
>>738342621fuck u nigga
Any ideas on how long for restock? I'm going to guess at least a month. Hopefully this one's I got legs unlike the first one.
>>738347728You need an account to use steam Obviously people buying a steam controller would have an account already but let's fully gloss over that one
>>738371602I bought an old steam controller and steam deck without an account.
>>738371850So used basically
Alright you fucks that already somehow got itHow is the d-pad? I trust no reviewers. I trust the paypiggies here more than reviewers
>>738371893Nope
>>738361950>I'm puzzled why nobody else thought about it.Usually, companies think like this:>how do we give people the minimal viable version of what they expect at a price they're willing to pay>what cheap gimmick can we add at no cost to stand outinstead of:>what's an improvement we could make to this that will actually make it betterValve, as a privately owned company, generally has people working there whomst've think about how to improve things.
It said when I boughted'd that it would take 6-10 days.Just checked, and got this pleasant surprise.Why the fuck is it in Canada though? Ew, I don't even want it any more. Someone come steal it from my doorstep. I'm not even touching that shit. And take the doormat with you.
woke up with it being packaged
>>738354028how else are you going to pay doctors to medicate millions of indians?
>>738374250That's Ontario California, retard-kun.
Shit man, still at packaged itemsMaybe it's because I spammed that button, I'm getting punished
>>738375520You can't fool me. California isn't part of America.
>>738361950There's 8bitdo which has a dock that's also used as a receiverI think the idea of the puck is that you'd be able to play when the battery is charging without having to plug an USB-C cable. I don't know about the strength of the magnet though. And charging through a PC USB port doesn't seem all that quick, but apparently it takes about as long as a dualsense to charge
>>738342772Anything with standard bluetooth will have higher latency than the Steam controller regardless of the internal polling rate.People don't reallise just how slow bluetooth is.
>>738375792>People don't reallise just how slow bluetooth is.This does not change the fact that no one will notice the difference.
>>738375563From what I can tell, they literally processed the queue in the wrong order. The earlier you bought, the later you get it. The guys who bought at the 6-10 day mark are all getting it before guys who bought at 3-5 days.
>>738375954You may not notice, but your brain will.You ever fail a dodge timing that you were sure you should have gotten? Or maybe fallen off a ledge because you held the stick just a smidge of a second too long?Or hell, anything going on around Bluetooth will fuck it up.The break room at my job has a bunch of microwaves. if one of them is running, my bluetooth headset starts sputtering and skipping like crazy. It's connected to a music player in my pocket.Maybe I should be more worried about that, now that I think about it.
>>738376020Yep it does seem like punishment alrightGod fucking dammit
>>738376053No, I don't play games that require reaction time. I can't even tell the difference between audio and video desynchronization on youtube when using bluetooth headphones.
>>738375792Sorry I have to fuck with you a little.I have a dualsense and a mobapad huben 2.I connect the huben 2 through its 2.4ghz receiver at a polling rate of 1000hz wirelessly (even does excellent without much jitter at all).The dualsense is only getting me like 270hz through bluetooth. It is just more responsive. 2.4ghz alone don't fix fucking anything.
FFUUUUUUCK im still waiting for mine i cant wait for it
