*is the worst controller dock in your path*
>>749530612Also a fire hazard. Be careful with this shit.
>>749530612>>749530647>>749530769why you seething tonight, saaar?
>>749530795I'm a controller sage. I bought the steam controller day one and sold it the day after. I had doubts about it and my hunches were right.The puck is fucking retarded because you have to hold the cable then pull the controller which is way less practical than grabbing your controller out of its charging dock.Besides the controller itself has a fuckton of issues. It's trying to pack way to much inputs for it's form factor, they should have made it wider. The membrane buttons are mediocre. The back buttons have way too much resistance. There are no anti friction rings. Dpad and ABXY buttons are way too close to the sticks. It's not the worst controller of all time but at this price range it gets wrecked by many controllers.
>>749531096>to much>it'syou didn't buy shit and you're too young to post on 4chan
>>749531096>you have to hold the cable then pull the controllerSkill issue. Just grab it from the top and push the puck down with your finger.
>>749530612Kek, I thought that was an altered picture of the guy who died upside down in that cave.
>>749531247Still retarded.>>749531186Didn't read before posting and couldn't care to correct my post afterwards, good job anon.>you didn't buy shit Still got the pic. Can't handle truthnukes, valvekek? Maybe it's time to admit valve can't into hardware.
>>749530612fucking FINALLY
>>749531725>valvekekI have a valve, razer and nintendo controller right in front of me and a dual sense around here somewhere. You're just obviously ESL or underaged (probably both) and lying
>>749531846>shit controller>probably shit and overpriced controller >shit controller >shit controller Nice job making your opinion irrelevant.
>>749531978ah you're chinese, poor, and/or work for gamesaar or 8shitdolikely all three. sad. is "controller sage" your official title there? lmaoeven worse but still likely is that you're a spic who does it for free because you blame the US for your dirt floors
>>749532078>poltard rethoricBesides ain't my fault if western or jap companies aren't trying to make good controllers with great value
>>749532208alright well thanks for confirming, ya shitstainand no, I never visit /pol/; you guys are just incredibly apparent and not nearly as subtle or mysterious as you think
>>749532290Whatever you say. Whiter than you btw, amerimutt.
>>749532339lying on the internet to support your 'team' who doesn't give a shit about you is not white behavior
>>749531096>I bought the steam controller day one and sold it the day afterguy you replied to herebait used to be believablepeople who actually got one know how long it took.you sound like a retard who doesn't know what a sticky-backed strap is.my cable is stuck to my desk so I just lift up my controller and place it back down and it just works.
>>749531096Ok mister sage, give me a decent controller for 100 bucks or less im thinking of getting game sir 7 pro 8k
>>749533418The G7 pro is good (I have two) but at this price I'd rather get a Vader 5 with the charger dock. Recommending gadgethyper for that. The dpad is miles better on the Vader and it has tension rings.
>>749531790What does this offer that makes it worth spending $25 more than a DualSense?
>>749534043It's ain't drifting after 6 months.
>>749534173I've been using the same controller since I got my PS5 four years ago and it's still fine
>>749534275I've been using one for 6 months and then it started drifting. It's just not reliable.
>>749534043Valve > Sony
>>749530612It's just too big I have no room on my 4 monitor desk for it
>>749534275i mean, have you ever had a chance to use it? no games.
>>749534713Yeah. I've been playing Pathfinder recently. I'm doing a martial Azata run as a Shifter while I wait for Rogue Trader's last DLC.
>>749534467if you can't fit a controller on a desk you need to get a job and buy a real desk
>>749535283You may be right. I will take this into deep consideration
>>749534043i just wanted the touchpads having played with my brother's Steam Deck. Was inifinitely better than my Legion Go solely because of it.
>>749535690Do you actually use both touchpads or only one? I'm curious if people use both of them it seems pretty overkill.
>>749534043TMR joysticks
Puck isn't the problem, trackpad placement is. When I wanna use the steam controller I mostly use the OG one since the trackpads are what it does better than others. The should have placed the trackpads and sticks asymetric switch them on the right side. Then it would be perfect, so it's crippling its own best gimmick.
>be me>all current technology is shit>still waiting for well designed docks and battery packs easy replaceable>everytime I dream about well designed technology I get super hard>exposed 3pin designHahahahahahaa!!!!!! First world problems
>>749530647Just dont leave it turned on.
>>749535907yes both of them.the customizability of the touchpads make it superior for old games (especially with the ones that don't have or have dogshit controller support).i even like it for aiming sometimes because of that drag and slide thing that other touchpads don't do.
>>749535907The dpad emulation is better than the actual dpad...
>>749536441>>749536567Interesting. I wonder what would happen if you removed the dpad and the right joystick and kept the trackpads.hold on...
>>749536683Yes. Og steampad is alrdy the final form. The new one is a step back. Well it does have better haptics and 2 additional back buttons but I rather use the old one and have an additional standard controller.
>>749534467get some proper mounting arms and you'll have desk space again
>>749535907it's nice to have options to bind as many additional things as you can think of
>>749534467>4 monitor deskWrong thread but current gfx card bandwith sucks because it shits itself from running 2 8k devices.
>>749531096>So many points,yet wrong to the last.You're no sage. You're not even a journeyman, probably not even an apprentice.
>>749530612https://www.printables.com/search/models?ctx=models&q=steam+controller+charging
>>749535907Even at minimum, one for scrolling, one for cursor is great.
>dock>need to use both hands to separate it from the devicewhat is the point
>>749541009No idea. It's just a fancy usb c connector.
>>749530612Is this controller actually worth it? The left stick on my xbox controller started to drift two months ago. Though I've had it for like 3-4 years, don't remember. Looking to replace it with something else.
>>749541009>need to use both hands to separate it from the deviceYou don't. It takes a single finger.>>749541450Yes, but if all you need is a replacement for an Xbox controller that won't drift, you may as well get a Flydigi or any other chinesium controller with TMR sticks.
>>749535907The touchpads are absolutely godlike, but even I am not autistic enough to use both. Best use for it is to use it as a wheel, but that shit takes way too long to setup properly for each game. I did it with nubby's number factory, where each direction of the left touchpad clicked a specific coordinate on the screen, so I could play it entirely without using the mouse, but that was way too much work.
>>749541541>where each direction of the left touchpad clicked a specific coordinate on the screenYou can just do screen region.
>>749531096I bought it day one and it's the best controller I've ever owned. You sound like a handlet.
>>749541586That's exactly what I did, but it still takes way too fucking long. Doesn't help that the steam input UI is absolutely dogshit. Am I retarded or you really can't navigate that shit with the steam controller's trackpad mouse? I literally have to juggle between KB+M and the steam controller all the time when setting shit up
>>749540926>>749541631Certified drones.
>>749540945if you own a 3d printer you're a faggot
>>749531725Would probably buy a version with the joystick and dpad switched.
>>749541725I don't own one because I am poor but even I think that if you don't own a 3D printer you're a faggot

>>749542101*farts*
>>749542101This "proves" the opposite of what you think it does.
Finally got mine and the left dpad was broken.The thing would only input as down dpad.Was a bit of a pain but I bound the left trackpad as a dpad till support asked me to send it back.
>>749531096You're no sage. Just a retard with more money than sense. This post >>749542101 proves it.>The membrane buttons are mediocre. The back buttons have way too much resistance. There are no anti friction rings. Dpad and ABXY buttons are way too close to the sticks.All of these are nitpicks at best. They simply don't matter compared to what the controller can actually do.>It's not the worst controller of all time but at this price range it gets wrecked by many controllers.Not a single controller at this price range, or even any price range has trackpads. The SC wins just for that.
>>749530647qrd?
>>749542624EVERY FUCKING STEAM CONTROLLER THREAD YOU POST THIS EXACT SHITSEEK HELP
Have they become more readily available or is it still a nightmare? not available in my country and I'll have to wait until people can start importing and reselling them.
>>749531096I really like it. I just pick it up one handed and flick the puck off with a finger, it snaps towards the controller really easily no matter how I put it back. It's great. It's really comfortable and has a good D-Pad. My only complaint and it's a pretty big one is that the left stick location is pretty uncomfortable for me. I don't have very long thumbs but I use the D-Pad for what I'm playing anyway.
>>749542693>steam controller thread>start talking about controllers that are not equivalent to it in any way and useless for the same applications>complain that others are ruining steam controller threads???
>>749542693everything he posted was literally a response. Are you posting the same shit every thread? How else would he make the same post every thread?seek help
>>749531186>full lowercase no punctuation poster trying to police typos on 4chanHilarious.
>>749544062those weren't typos, retardwhat would be the problem with that, anyway?
Would cum if Valve made a steam controller with xbox joystick layout and switch digital hair triggers
>>749530612>*is the worst controller dock in your path*also the worst controller with no xinput, you HAVE to use steam, no playnite no launchbox for pirated games old games emulated games and gog games and most of the time you have to fiddle about with remaking controller inputs in the fucking menu because that fat fucking faggot gabe made no xinput switch wow great controller you retarded cunt they could have been one of the people instead they do the most gayest shit that sony does locks down everything to their own ecosystem
>>749542220This proves I have tested and have many reference points in controllers just like you have many reference points in licking Gaben ass, dick and balls so everyone knows you're able to tell apart their taste.>>749542624The trackpads aren't even well placed. It's a flawed controller with bad execution. Just like the puck is.
>>749531096>you have to hold the cableBruh double sided tape stick that fucker down retard.
>>749545779>[_] Use you finger in an unatural way>[_] Print your own dock for your puck>[_] Double sided tape your puck>[X] Buy a better controller with an actual good dockNow let's see what option anon chose.
>>749536683Yes. This is the best version of the Steam controller or at least closer to it than the 1.0 or 2.0 were.The stick on the 1.0 just forces you to hold it weird if you want to use it, the fake d-pad patterning was pointless and the Diamond face button layout was also trash. I guess it made some kind of sense during that period where PC ports were genuinely shit with their controls, but it still set the controller back by a lot.It also feels like the official rebinding software has only gotten worse over time.A new Steam controller with this layout and the 2.0 Steam controller's back and grip buttons would be fantastic.
>>749546012Just 3D print your own dock so that you have exactly the right dock for your purpose instead of needing to buy some garbage plastic trash.
>>749546190>Just print your ugly plastic trash to contain your piece of hardware
>>749546292skip the ugly trash to begin with? That's what's nice about the puck. I don't need some tacky controller holster sitting on my desk. But the puck is the receiver and can be tucked away but still serve the function of the dock when needed
>>749531096>The puck is fucking retarded because you have to hold the cable then pull the controllerI charge it like once every 2 weeks, how is this an issue?
>>749530647>Also a fire hazardJust a thought, but couldn't have they designed the pins to be recessed until the magnet pulls them up to the controller?
>>749542101which ones did you like? i've only used ultimate 1 and g7 pro currently have the latter
>>749535907Waya I use trackpads on deck:>Factorio: both are 2d mouse. Game is so mouse heavy that it's nice to use 2 thumbs to fast move mouse around>Deadlock: left trackpad is 2d mouse with click for menus, right trackpad is 3D aim and click to melee. Nice so I can aim and melee at same time.>Submachine legacy: left trackpad is basically a touchscreen where the square is always mapped exactly onto the square game window. Right trackpad is normal 2d mouse. Nice because in this game you very often just want to click on "the bottom half of the screen"
