Yes, literally any controller.

kb+m, obviously

what kind of retarded question is that ?

the most comfy triggers of any controller. those things make absolutely no noise when impressed and press so smoothly.

KB/M are pretty terrible for anything requiring analog movement. In other words: anything not an FPS or RTS.

Bone controller is an upgraded 360 controller in every single way. The analog sticks are more solid and the triggers function much better, also the D-Pad isn't absolute garbage.

Bumpers are pretty annoying though, I preferred the ones on the 360 controller, also it has too many sharp edges. I still use it for most games though.
>>
>>321543456
Analog sticks on the 360 controller were less-than-perfect. None of them ever snapped perfectly back into place, most had a slight awkward tilt, which only got worse after hundreds of hours of use. Also, the plastic coating on the sticks would easily get worn out and even be prone to breaking off. The triggers would eventually have that annoying ass squeak like the Dreamcast controllers.

Ergonomically the 360 controllers were amazing, but they weren't without faults. The Bone controller pretty much fixes everything the 360 controllers had wrong with them.

Have you held one? The Bone controllers are probably the most comfortable controller I've ever held ergonomically. The form factor is near perfect.

>>321544340
You start to think it's too small because everything else on the controller is smaller, but it's actually just as large in the right places. I felt the same way too. After a few hours I tried using my 360 controller again and frankly found it too big and bulky. With the Bone controller they just cut the fat where it wasn't needed.
>>
>>321543378
Is the dpad on the XBOX ELITE $150 DOLLARYDOOS controller any better? I have yet to see Microsoft make a d-pad that isn't shit.
>>
>>321544559
Yeah, well I disagree. I played with it for nearly 8 hours yesterday and it just feels off.
>>
>>321542612
For console gaming no. For PC, yes. Now certainly most would argue that using a controller with pc games is stupid. I prefer to play fighters, tps and some action puzzle games with a controller. Never understood my preference with tps.. they just feel better with a controller to me. I have the Logitech 930 bla bla bla.. I can fine tune the sticks how I want. I can set button macros. I could do that with an Xbox controller but I'd need a separate program and all that shit. I can plug and play with the Logitech controller. Thing even works with my ps3. Hell I even have an adapter that would allow me to plug it into my tablet if I played games on that.
>>
>>321544587
No, but at least they give you options to make it less shit. If you want a D-Pad get a Nintendo controller. If you want a good analog controller with a passable D-pad get a DS4. If you want perfect analog but only use d-pads for menu navigation then get a bone.
>>
>>321544587
They basically made two dpads that are each better at something else. The fourway dpad is great for platformers and games with options tied to up, down, left, right. The disc is perfect for fighters, or things with fighter motions. You can swap them out depending on what you need at the time. I guess it's the best Microsoft can muster.
>>

Sounds like you literally just need to git gud.
>>
>>321544928
Not that guy, but games with heavy analog movement like third person games are certainly playable with a KB/M, it's just fucking uncomfortable to use. These games don't often require more than a few buttons anyway without needing much for camera manipulation, which defeats the purpose of using a KB/M entirely

Kinda wrong third person games are also better with kb/m

Example is souls a mouse lets you do a 180 turns in an instant meaning faster reactions and better aim with magic and bows. Same with anything requiring aiming. More keys to hit key as well

Racing and fighting games are better with wheels and controllers respectively though

>>321548917
Because they can be. The sad part is that they're still cheaper than buying a SCUF or something similar unless you supply your own controller.
>>
>>321548917
Its expensive because they know they're not going to sell that many because people are satisfied with the Xbone controller as it is, so they planned to only order one giant fucking batch and just sit on them forever, with any sales after X being pure profit.

>Microsoft is currently having issues keeping them on the shelf because demand is so high

Maybe they thought they weren't going to sell that many at launch, but right now is a different story
>>
>>321549628
That's because retailers didn't think a controller that costs half the price of the console would sell either.

amiibos basically had the same problem with the first wave, stores underestimated the demand and didn't order much stock, and then when the demand was even a bit higher than they expected it made it appear as though there was much, much more demand than was actually present.
>>
>>321549875
Microsoft has said they are having issues keeping up with demand, so it's not really on the store end in this situation. Most of the time when a store puts some stock up online it's gone within 5ish minutes, so there is a sizable demand for them

I hate that the battery life doesn't extend to 50hr on the DS4. It's also a poorer controller on Windows cause fucking Sony refused to officially support it and we can't get the 3.5mm out on it.

I know. Xbox requires me to use a dongle as well. PS4 wins in this regard as BT comes included in toasters, phones and PCs alike.

It would be godly if not for the digital triggers, why would anyone think those are okay?

>>321548743
I don't think they could since other systems had it well before. And I thought the patent for the D-Pad is over. Thought it was 15 or so years. That being said Nintendo is godly with D-Pads. Just wish the Wii U was a bit more clicky since I like a bit of resistant to my buttons.

2. V-moda M-100 with boompro. I am using the thicker pads on it.
3. Steam controller's trackpad is the nicest to date. the Triggers are all right, the shoulder bumpers are rubbish, the feel is cheap. The remapping program is good, but you need Big Picture mode to get full use out of it. If only it doesn't feel so cheap.
4. That's Logitech G13 gamepad. It uses rubber dome. I think you can do without such a thing.

I just upgraded from a 360 controller to an xbone controller myself, it definitely feels better and i like it a lot, but the bumper buttons feel kinda shitty to me. Everything else feels nicer except the bumper buttons.

The bumpers on my 360 pushed down so easily, i barely had to apply pressure so it was great, especially since i'm currently playing lightning returns where the bumper buttons are important, it was very smooth. Xbone bumpers feel really stiff though and my fingers usually are placed at the end of them near the xbone button and it seems like they can't really be pressed down from there, you have to be more towards the middle of the button. This could just be a case of the controller being brand new and needing to be used and broken in to feel less stiff, but idk.

I'm puzzled too anon, I don't understand how the "share" shit got under the door with barely any notice. Sonyggers are faggots like that who eat any shit Sony gives them and even praise them for it.

If you got adult sized hands, then yes. I don't find the Xbone controller to be unwieldly or anything even with my Asian girl sized hands though.

Xbox 360 controller is better.

The sticks in this controller are kinda small, as well as the control in general.

Recommend me some PC games I can play comfortably with a controller.

I currently own a shitty DS4 and am considering the elite controller, but I don't have enough (controller) games that make it worth the investment.
>>
>>321557949
Dark Souls
Nep
GTAV

Literally any game that requires analog movement is a controller game.

Is there a better controller

or

Does a better controller exist
>>
>>321552864
I have a ps4 too. I just mean you get better deals and a better experience as far as gold goes for. PlayStation basically tries to get as much money out of you as possible. The deals Xbox is offering are way better than on PlayStation.

But I think it's just the Xbox one can be used as a multimedia device as well.

Slight modification OP.

This, great for extra binds in more complicated games or even just setting stuff like taking screenshots or savestate stuff in emulators

>resolves the biggest problems of the 360 controller (round buttons, shitty d-pad) but is now skinny as fuck and the triggers don't feel as good
I seriously believe that anyone who doesn't say the Dualshock 4 is the best 8th gen controller is one of those people who blame Sonyggers for everything wrong with gaming. DS4 just feels far better and if it weren't for how useless the pad thing is then it'd be flawless.

>4. That's Logitech G13 gamepad. It uses rubber dome. I think you can do without such a thing.
>>321555606

The G13 is really nice if you're willing to put work into making macro bind setups for games, having a hand full of binds that can be stuff like 'switch to action bar 2, use ability 1, switch back to action bar 1' in games that only allow you to hotkey X number of abilities is rad.

such as wow macro spamming. You can get keyboards with dedicated macro keys as well. I personally find the G13 to be so large as to border unwieldly.

Does that mini keyboard work with pc (including extra features)?
>>
>>321561374
Yes.
Works fine with Windows 10, have to set audio to the controller if you want sound to come from it though.

Should I upgrade to an xbone controller from a 360? It'll just be for playing FIFA.

Depends how much time you spend playing etc.
Find someone with a controller and try it for 10 minutes, if you like it more than your 360 controller it may be worth the investment.
>>
>>321561737
Does the controller have a mic on its own? Or you need the headjack for that
>>
>>321550684
>that steam controller
how the fuck you are suppose to play with that shit ?
>>
>>321562387
It has a 3.5mm jack in the controller (newer models) and in the bottom of the chat pad which works with mics.
>>
>>321562142
>Find someone with a controller

That would be ideal, I don't know of anyone who has an xbone though.

Go to a vidya shop? most have a console you can play on.

No shit.
I've not been a fan of the steam controller since the start, I think it got so far because "its from Valve", if it was a kick starter project it would be a horror story on /v/
>>
>>321562453
actually it works surprisingly well. You don't think it's going to be anything but shit and then you actually use it and it's great.

>>321562453
It works fine. It is a far better option than pig disgusting touchpad on laptop if you have portable needs or that you need to use your PC from 3' away. Look, consolefags won't have such usage scenario, and I agree that KBM would do better in FPS.

Steam's big picture for the gabencontroller is a killer. I am waiting for a standalone thing such as Xpadder to emerge. Keep in mind that this controller will not be better than a 360 controller at being a 360 controller, but you are able to map way more functions to it than you could with any 360 controller (such as tilt up/down as the Wii U pad can do)
>>
I tried holding the XBone controller with my middle fingers on the triggers and indexes on the bumpers but it was uncomfortable as fuck. 360 controller is still superior.

I am sure people who hold controllers like plebs find it amazing, but for patricians like me it doesn't cut it. I don't want to imagine how bad a claw grip feels.

>No shit
>Linux of controllers

You know what? Yes on a few counts. It's likely to become easily adapted to the Linux world for one since Steam OS is just a highly locked down linux spawn.

This Elite controller won't let you remap those unique paddles to other keypresses, never mind macros. In fact, it won't let you remap any button to keypresses. The steam controller will happily bind to keypress, maybe even macro later on.

Elite controller -> CronusMax -> PS4

On the other hand, CronusMax can let you hook up the Elite controller to a PS4 with your two onboard preset profiles intact. It's hard to make Steam do the same.

(You must use X-AIM to make the Steam controller work on a PS4 or Xbone on the other hand, and you must have the PC right beside the console for this to work.

Controller -> Steam Bic Picture mode -> X-AIM plugin -> CronusMax -> Console
>>
>>321564269
It's just keyboard inputs, so as long as FFXIV lets you mix controller and keyboard, yeah.

Forgot to add that Xpadder can let you rebind obviously, but it won't pick up the unique paddles and register them as individual buttons that you can reassign at will.

Stop claiming that DS4 is superior already, faggot. Unless if the DS4 can get Wii U Pro battery life, Xbox One thumbstick reliability, Elite controller construction and Steam controller remapping support, then it doesn't deserve to be called /thread over.

I owned all of these as a real controller idort.

DS4 touch pad is piss-poor in comparison to Steam controller's touchpad implementation. The only shit that I can do with it is no better than just any ol' touchpad at best.

DS4 3.5mm audio jack is just for decoration on a PC cause lolnope let's not officially support the PC! Same thing as on fucking android! Best controller my ass if that's just purely decorational. At least Xbone made damn sure that you can use the 3.5mm jack as intended so the feature's not just for show, you dipshit.
