You do fucking know that many games have both analog sticks as primary controls? Like fps? Or racing games? Fighting games don't have it that way.
But Defining the correct controller setup based on something that is not constant is pretty dumb.
People SHOULD pick just the controller that fits that games that they play the most.

Unless your a console fag, then you have to jump through hoops to do this.

Too bad you fucking idiots don't understand that there's pretty much a best controller for different genres.

>Fighting games, where most of the time will be on the d-pad and face buttons
Sony controllers generally win this due to not having atrocious d-pads and both are in symmetrical positions

>Racing games, while dependent on preference, can be played with either both analogs or left analog and buttons/triggers
Analogs would be Sony, triggers would easily be Microsoft

>FPS, generally like fighting games but the opposite, since a majority of the time both thumbs will be on the sticks and triggers
Sony semi-wins this, but with triggers it's purely preference


and so on.
>>
>>343867910

Complete opposite for me, the low face buttons placement made that controller a nightmare on my thumb when playing anything that used a lot of button inputs.

Killed the console for me, haven't touched it in 2 years.

If the Dualshock 4 had a Nintendo like dpad and good battery life it would be absolutely flawless. While I love the Wii U pro controller for being so comfy, the DS4 is the only one which games can be played as comfortably with the dpad as well wih the stick. Even the dpad on the pro controller feels a bit too low.

It isn't the sticks and face buttons that controllers have wrong. It's the triggers. If you want to use both triggers(L1/L2/LT/LB) you have to angle your wrist to an awkward angle. Instead of having the L2 be further down the back so you can comfortably rest the controller in your hand.

Having D-pad in the secondary position is uncomfortable as fuck.

The analog sticks are raised which mitigates the "stretch" the reach down there. It's completely comfortable.
There should be no problem using a secondary-position analog stick unless you're actually retarded.

Moreover, D-pad in the primary position lets the controller work well for many types of games.

I use the D-pad for menus and 2D movement.
I mean shit, try playing Project Diva with an Xbox controller.
Fuck that.

The DualShock setup is a jack of all trades and works with any kind of game.

The Xbox setup works primarily for FPSs, which is why it's great for Xbox because that's 90% of its library.

Nintendo layouts are totally fucked and honestly I don't think they've ever gotten it right on their consoles ever since the N64.

Only a turd would settle with the xbox controller.

Try playing FPS with the U Pro. Symmetrical top sticks were designed for 3D games. The only reason the xbox controllers have their right stick in the wrong place is because the xbox controller is a successor of the dreamcast patents, and Microsoft just slapped on a second stick.

Face buttons are near useless these days when most actions are done with triggers.

I prefer the Playstation controller, since I use the dpad about 25% of the time. The way I see it having the analog stick slightly lower doesn't affect gameplay, it works just as well down there. Having the dpad lower completely ruins it though, so I'd rather have it in a comfortable position. You're not going to do anywhere near as well on a shmup, fighting game or platformer if you're cramping your thumb down and losing your left/right alignment so everything becomes diagonal.

still using the d-pad whenever i can
fuck sticks

>fighting games
why do people think this
for racing games sure, it sucks, but for fighting games it's just a different control scheme.
using 3 different fingers to execute the motions can be much more comfortable than just your thumb
>>
>>343867353
But that's wrong. In modern games, primary input tends to be the shoulder buttons(shooters, dark souls, driving games), with right analog controlling movement and left analog controlling camera, which are the two most used part of the controller. Which means if you're using the Xbox controller, you tend to have your fingers in an asymmetrical position, while the opposite is true of the PlayStation controller.
>>
>>343870051
It's the second most comfortable controller I've ever held, number one being the Game Cube controller.
>>
>>343878027
you're calling me or OP a retard?

anyways, there's no argument to be had with controls

you use what you are the most comfortable with and that's it, what is important is customization, so that anyone can control any way they want

some people might be comfortable with something, while someone else may find that horrible, it's really a personal thing
>>
What really bothers me is that Nintendo got it right with the Gamecube controller, then stopped. The Classic Controller has the excuse of being made to play Virtual Console games, but what the fuck were they thinking with the Pro Controller?

And then they rerelease the Gamecube controller for Smash, proving that they're still perfectly able to make them. If only they would make an upgraded Gamecube controller their standard controller, but noooo, that would make too much sense.

This is true for every system but the one using the layout described.

Go figure.
>>
>>343878640
I personally hate the gamecube controller

-trigger buttons
-octagon slots for the sticks
-left stick and right stick are different designs
-face buttons of different shapes and sizes

I'm not saying the shape of the controller is bad but I really hate the buttons on it
>>
>>343878960
I disagree on the trigger buttons, but the rest - along with an extra z-button - are no-brainers in an upgrade.
>>
>>343867353
Wait, you're suppose to have your middle finger under the LT and RT? I thought you were suppose to always just use your pointing finger to use both?
>>
>>343879116
that's for sure, the WII U controller 's shape really looks inferior
>>
>>343879165
yes, so that every finger has a use.
i do find more comfortable to press them with the index finger
>>
>>343879116
I have no idea why they only added a Z button on one side. There's room for it, it affected any ports from other systems since there were less buttons. You could get around no select/back button but it's dumb as fuck to make it assymetrical just for the sake of it.

Left and right sticks should be the primary. Controlling the camera and movement are the most important aspects of any game.

Haven't you ever had a moment where you're like running or something and then you want to do something with the dpad at the same time. It's really convenient when you can do that real quick instead of just stopping
>>
>>343867353
Dual Shock 2 is best controller to me.
X360 pad always seemed unnecessarily biger and heavier. It also had shit trackpad.
DS4 is ok, but has issues like short working time. Build in light and audio seem like useless gimmicks. Trackpad is almost not used and even when it is, it's single button most of time. Share button would be ok if I could configure it to take screenshot and save it or start/stop recording, I don't want that menu to show up every time.

situational
but even when it's primary the thumb can feel the different directions distinctly. moving your thumb on a stick forward should be forward instead of moving your thumb sideways, if i'm making any sense

did anyone actually ever play Armored Core like this or is it just a joke? I can't see why anybody would want to play a game that requires you to use the controller like this.

It's not an issue when you're used to it. I borrowed a controller with an xbox layout for my PS3 the other day and it felt really weird having the analog on top. I also missed being able to use the dpad at the same time

Pianoed inputs are much, much faster and more precise than stick or dpad movements.

Standing 720s are a joke on one of these things compared to any other controller.

Am I the only person on the fucking planet who can play comfortably on any of those pads without bitching? The only thing I find uncomfortable is kb+m because I fucking hate floating my hand above the goddamned keyboard for long periods. I start to feel that warm tingling in my wrist.

The only controllers I've found to be uncomfortable and shitty to use have been the N64 trident, the Gamecube pad, and the Wii wagglan wand. Nintendo has an awful track record for me.

But there is nothing inferior about the "secondary" locations. And that's where the flaw of this entire argument lies.
Meanwhile not having buttons be parallels with the buttons and the sticks parallel with the sticks is just unsightly.

But if your thumbs somehow in any fashion fails to function or functions at a suboptimal level just because you have them placed asymmetrically, then you're the one with the problems and not the controller.

There are aspects of the GCN controller that are really good. Problem being that they're overshadowed by core dumb design decisions.

this picture is wrong, barely any games nowdays actually use face buttons, so listing them as primary input is stupid, if anything, control stick, camera stick and triggers are primary inputs nowdays, so putting face buttons and d-pad as secondary inputs makes 100% sense
tl;dr: OP is retarded

I do that, you fucking retard. I just hate my hand being positioned above the keyboard with nothing to grip, pressing downward on keys. It's fucking stupid. Give me something to pick up and hold, or like an analog stick with a fuckton of hotkey-able buttons on it. Anything but WASD for movement.

You do rest your hand on the keyboard (if it has space under the keys) or on the desk right?

if the problem is you don't like having nothing to grip then it's not the keyboard the problem
it's that you are used to the controller

keep playing on console, maybe it's better for you

Or just play PC games however the fuck. It's silly to act like an elitist over using something which was never meant to act as a controller as a controller. It's for typing, FFS. The very act of using it is unnatural. We have hands, with fingers and thumbs. We can grip and manipulate things.

Love using the mouse, hate the keyboard. Ideally, I'd use one of those peripherals like razr makes, but those are all garbage. Pic related, these are cool, but kind of blow in practice.

Stick controlled cameras are shit for hunting games. If the camera isn't set vertical levels it is shit tier in the first place, but flicking to go up/down leves is worse then button presses.

God forbid they have any kind of analog camera controls too, that shit is awful for hunting games.

This. 360 controller is my least favorite. I can play with any controller just fine, but the 360 controller looks retarded. If it wasnt the only one with native windows support I wouldnt own one ever. The asymmetrical sticks dont bother me as far as performance, but the shitty "Buttons" RB and LB and the shitty D-Pad make it a fucking joke. the XBone fixed the buttons, but the D-Pad is still far from the DS4. Plus theres the added fact that XBox controllers are such bricks you can literally use them to murder someone.

Except in many games you are usually walking while moving the camera. Having your fingers on both upper sticks still give you access to the upper face button as well as up on the d-pad (if positioned correctly like on the WiiU).
The 360 pad fixes nothing by having that layout.
