    In terms of compatibility, the DS4 windows program allows the dual sense to be recognized as a xbox one controller. So it can be used with pretty much anyything. The dualsense also has great gyro for shooters if you're down with that

    • @The1nteger
      @The1nteger  2 роки тому +1

      Aye, you aren't wrong D! There are ways! Thankfully, with out the box native support for Dying Light 2 (and maybe likely Elden Ring pretty please From Software), the native support is pretty sweet thus far for new games!

      Well, the like ratio suggests it's somewhat divisive at best but I'll take it, thanks Lebourreau! We have support (needs fixing in some setups) for Far Cry 6 and the speaker audio (only feature that was missing) is now fully supported in Deathloop, so PS5 Controller support is growing slowly but surely 👍🎮

    At this point my favorite countroller still seems to be the Steam Controller. I tried buying a DualSense 5 and the new xbox elite controller and neither were able to supplant the steam controller as my go-to, much to my chagrin. The steam controller having been discontinued is what lead to me trying to find a replacement for it, as I recognize I will eventually need to replace it.

    • @The1nteger
      @The1nteger  2 роки тому

      Aye, I never got to check out the Steam Controller, thanks for sharing! I hope you'll get use to one of the options available, just got an Xbox Elite Series 2 which I'm using for Elden Ring (video on the home page), solid controller thus far but can't say how either compares to Steams.

    Been using a PowerA xbox controller (wired) with the buttons on the back, but after two years, the analogue has broken. Movin' forwards is now responsive. Ruinin' my Skyrim Elysium Remaster playthrough. Was bound for a problem - (who has ever played a heavily modded version of skyrim, all the way through, without a problem?) - anyway, just bought a new ps5 controller with 3 years insurance. I have played with them before on PS5 - and can only hope for some sort of trigger feedback integration into some PC games, as that is what I will be using it on. Uhm, bit clunky, can be uncomfortable for long time use, but the features are top tier - I will miss those back buttons, but, I like and enjoy a challenge.
    So, xbox powerA with back buttons are a favoured PC controller, even tho' it only lasted a couple of years (affordability, tho'!)
    Then PS5 controller!

      Hi Julian! According to my records (www.the1nteger.tv/forum/gamer-resources/list-of-pc-games-that-support-the-dualsense-controller) that game does not support DualSense features on PC (or PS5) so at best you can probably use it as a basic PC controller (like DualShock 4) if it recognises no problems; in which case I don't expect you'll have any lag issues and alternatively you can use the steam fix I mention in this video along with other DualSense PC tips here ua-cam.com/video/TUtt90l7BhA/v-deo.html hope these help.

      Aye, fair enough Bzxny! I think it's definitely situational where it might perform best, I mean thankfully you have fall back options, for the games like Deathloop and Metro Exodus that utilises its special feature, for me, it feels nice (assuming it's working the way its suppose, I know some have drift or issues potentially too unfortunately). Hopefully it because available to more games and you get more use out of it. Maybe see as well it you need to calibrate it a bit or tweak some settings in Fortnite too to see if that helps 🙂

      Yes. Windows detects it as 2 wireless / dualsense controllers in testing so I'd assume it will work as normal too. However I have no games I'm aware of to test the functionality right now. Should work just fine though! You may need to use the Steam fix to make it operate as a normal Xbox controller in games that don't support the features natively.

      I can guarentee it doesn't support the new PS5 features (although I think they're doing a PS5 update or something which may pass over to PC version), but honestly without testing it I can't say for sure right now, it works fully with speaker audio in Deathloop however after an update and if you're lucky it works in Far Cry 6 with Haptic Feedback (many people including myself only get adaptive triggers and no vibration in that one).

      Hey Kaif! Man...you're putting me on the spot there. Okay, so, disclaimer, before my DualSense, the Xbox One controller was my go to for compatibility reasons. I'd still argue that if you need a controller that is going to work all the time for anything that supports and controller and don't have one, you should have the Xbox One Controller / Elite as your no-frills always reliable go to. On the otherhand, you're the 2nd person here to say they had a problem with the PS5 DS, so I'm starting to think there are models with issues. Mine is early days to say if it is technically solid but no issues thus far thank God (amazon link in the description if end up buying from there. wink, wink). However all that aside, assuming you get a working controller without issues as you'd expect, when it's compatible I'd say it's the best feeling controller of them all right now and would be my first choice in the majority of circumstances (when it fully works). Now if the rumble worked on Diablo 2 Resurrection (last I checked, it doesn't) and the haptic feedback features work on PC for the upcoming Far Cry 6, the it's easier to recommend. But as it stands, you can only enjoy full compatibility with like 3 games on pc (Deathloop, Metro Exodus, AC Valhalla & F1 2021 I believe) and it's still not as fully compatibile in standard mode vs the Xbox, so it still might be considered a luxury purchase at this point. Hope that long-winded response helps you make a decision, let me know what you decide and if I remember, I'll try to update if / when it's fully compatible with more PC releases like FC6 👍
