Why can't Sonyggers grasp the concept that the left analog stick should always be above the D-pad? It's not fucking 1992 anymore, 3D games are the norm now and it's uncomfortable for your thumb to constantly be so far from the edge of the controller.
>b-but muh right analog stick
The face buttons will always be used more than camera controls, unless you're playing some shitty walking/movie simulator, which is probably the only thing Sonyggers do nowadays.
>b-but muh FPS
Playing FPS with anything other than kb+m is for retards.

I disagree, at least with Playstation controller I can play both 2D and 3D. It is uncomfortable to reach around a stick to get to the d-pad. With PS controller you don't have to do this. It is very easy to reach over d-pad to analog.

I don't understand why people say the thumbsticks in the center isn't natural.

When I hold on object in my hands I grab it. I don't let it rest on my fingers. When I grab an object, my thumb extends. This doesn't feel unnatural, because grabbing and holding objects for long periods of times isn't unnatural for humans. Our thumbs bend the other way for a reason. We literally evolved to grab things with our thumbs extended in a "wrap around it" position. Not with the thumb close to the palm.

I've always had the PS controller for consoles, and Xbox controllers for PC, and whenever I play PC games with a controller (which is about the same as total number of console games I play) I find my thumb naturally rests on the D-pad of the controller when I'm not using the sticks (in a cinematic or something).

The whole "thumbs pointed forward" is 100% a marketing meme that isn't based in science at all.

>People try and pretend that they don't rest their thumb on the right stick for 90% of 3D games.

In most modern games, basic character movement requires two sticks. The action buttons are pressed in quick leaps up to the face buttons, and then right back to the stick.

You fucking know you do this.

I love these threads.

Seriously I do.

You get to see all the braindead mouthbreathing faggots who have no business critiquing... anything.

>KB+M is best for FPS

Actually "dual nunchuck" is best for FPS if the game supports it. Now that VR meme is getting stronger it will eventually replace KB+M as default controller for FPS games.

KB+M is the default controller. The only non-point-and-click (including FPS) games that don't play better with KB+M are games that have analog movement "gimmicks". (ie playing Ape Escape or MGS2+3 with keyboard feels handicapped)
>>
>>341792752
Xbots are just cancer.

Gamecube deluded Nintendrones into thinking because that system is nothing but first or second-party games that analog in top position is better.

Xbox and Gamecube controller only "play better" with first-party games, and are sidegrades for second-party.

Ever since TES:Oblivion there's been nothing but Xbox360 (and onward) console ports plaguing PC. So of course Xbox controller "feels appropriate" when the KB+M controls are purposefully shoehorned.

1. The face buttons take up a bigger area than the control stick, so it would be cramped to have them down below

2. Claw grip would be impossible or really weird if ABXY and right stick were switched

Only time the d-pad is better in the top left position is in fighting games where you want the d-pad.

I don't know how anyone can say the X-Box One controller is better than the PS4 controller when it has bumpers and triggers like that. They're just awful. I tried play a Souls game with it and I just had to stop. It was so bad.

Why in gods name would you make a button that long only work when pressed on one side?
>>
>>341788286
I find it easier to pull the trigger with my thumb back like that, because my index finger is in a position that allows more finesse.

But that is my opinion.

I use an xbone controller on my PC for certain games, and my only modern console is a PS4. Never had any issue switching back and forth.

I own A 360 and played the ps2 to exhaustion with my best friend. Both controllers are good, but I could keep holding the xbox controller for more time.

The thumb doesn't always rest there though, it's entirely based on the individual and how they play. Normally, when holding a controller, your thumb will be almost 100% parallel with your forearm. If you playing with your controller close to your chest with your elbows at your sides, then the playstation controllers will feel more natural. If you play with your controller out, away from you, with your elbows in front of you, then the X box controller will feel better.

Try it, playing with your wrists cocked doesn't feel good at all.

xbone controller is far superior to the ps4 controller though in terms of aesthetics and build quality

Analogue stick in the top left is best for 3D games, which are the most common nowadays.

Face buttons in the top right is best for most genres as camera control is not as integral as your main actions. Even in a shooter face buttons are more important and used more often than the right stick is in non-shooters.

It's not perfect for everything, but it's the best setup for a majority of games from the past decade or two.

I don't think the position of the dpad vs thumbstick makes a huge difference. Even the Wii-U pad is usable despite being a flat rectangular brick

Things like the quality of the d-pad, buttons, triggers etc matter far more. The d-pad in particular has been a sticking point for some time on a lot of the Xbox pads.

Oh, and clickable analog sticks clicks are always and everywhere absolutely wrong.
>>
>>341795491
>bumpers are ass when not pressed on the outermost edges, making them feel awful, because you either have to press them with the middle part if your finger, which is awkward, or move your fingers back to the edges, which is awkward.
>Triggers are fuckhuge and hug ever curve of your finger, which feels weird for a trigger, and really feels like it's designed ONLY for shooters, and not as a supplementary analogue button.
>No dynamic button like the DS4's touchpad for games with odd control schemes that need that extra "whatever" button.

The last issue isn't so much of an "issue" as a just a thing that it would benefit from, but the first two are legitimate issues.

Also the D-Pad is still pretty horrible.
>>
>>341795854
You mean design failure as in Microsoft didn't intend for it to be like that? Or design failure as in, they didn't know they had those deadzones.

Do people actually have trouble using different controllers?

It's not about trouble using them, it's about which one is better. Have you ever discussed something and argued for your preference?
>>
>>341796379
nevermind then
>>
>>341789401
but since your claim is pure hyperbole- or *literal* hyperbole, if you will- you really just misused "literal" again.
>>
>>341796221
Not really. The ridge size is about the same, and my X-box one controller has a ring of grime already in the inner circle, which is really annoying. I guess maybe if you're one of those people who controls the stick from the direct center then it might feel a bit better as it's slightly more convex, but I've always used the center as a resting place, and rolled my thumb.

My thumb never touches the inside of the X-Box one controller or the DS4. Always the outer rim, and they both feel fine in that area.
>>
>>341796626
and yes, "literal hyperbole" is also a misuse, please don´t embarrass yourself pointing that out.
>>
>>341796379
By V2 do you mean elite controllers?
>>
>>341793980
> Now that VR meme is getting stronger it will eventually replace KB+M as default controller for FPS games.
Or rather it will not, because without having a major disconnect of your senses in VR you will need an entire treadmill setup before VR FPS will become commonplace and make traditional controls obsolete.

And then there are the people who like the pinpoint accurracy MKB gives you, that realistic control can´t achieve either, just like CS players love their predetermined bullet patterns.
