@lolozaur That's one of the better watermarks, look at the others, there's even worse Let's stop at 499 Pages, just so Max doesn't get his will Just opened the package, looks damn sweet (MS knows how to design and present things). But I instantly saw how small the sticks are and I already have pretty small hands. Someone with Viking hands surely will have issues with that. The Triggers are very sensitive, need to see how it plays out, planning to have this one for longer so I am a bit more careful and use my other 360 controller for games where I can press the thing like mad. The Digipad seems like an improvement to the 360 one, no more accidental button presses in another direction. http://i.imgur.com/KDNahvQ.jpg

I only find the triggers RB/LB pretty hard to press actually compared to the X360 one.

@harry_theone Can you do some real tests for the d-pad, please? Specifically how it feels and reacts in comparison to the near-godlike PS/SNES d-pads and in emulators/fire-from-my-fist fighting games? <3 I really need a completely non-biased (read: non MS fanatic) opinion.

@sabin: dpad is much better as the 360. gonna get a one controller too when my last 360 dies (3 dead, one more to go. well not dead, but over the years i replaced the stickrubber on all and now they are just worn out and sometimes show a direction even in center position). wireless receiver is coming this year too, waiting for that Last edited by Janz on Mon, 13th Apr 2015 11:59; edited 1 time in total

Too much derpsole talk for my taste... even for the humble goal of 500 pages. You guys are "page count whores" period!

@Snoepgun Weird, I found them pretty easy to press, compared to 360's quite resisting but fine mechanics. No more DS triggers for me though, they lose precision so quickly it hurts. Unlike the DS one I have, I can take my white controller from 2005 and press them just as good as a week after release, that's some real triggers! @sabin1981 I'll try my best, 360's original ones aren't hard to beat tho Wouldn't dismiss any of the DS3 D-pads either! Not sure I remember the SNES D-pads anymore but I think I get the direction you mean Since the first Heist features a snake-like minigame (which can be quite frustrating) I might test it with that this week, haha.

To be honest though, there's nothing *worse* than the 360 one.. so being "better" is kind of a given. I'd like to know how much better Very Happy

Thanks! Much appreciated Smile

So far the PS pads have had the best d-pads outside of the SNES but the PS3 controllers' sticks are too close together, resulting in uncomfortable thumb "clack" in certain situations, whereas the PS4 one looks much improved on that front.

im still using a dual shock 2 connected via adapter (shows up as 360 pad which is nice) for mortal kombat and any snes emulation stuff etc. and yes, its not hard to make a better dpad than the 360 ^^ friend had his controller over so i tried it, and i liked. since i dont used it long a cant say 100% but i think as i said i will get one too when the receiver is released

I've been using my PS3+BetterDS3 for years and it's great ... and now I've just seen that DS4Windows has profile options just like BetterDS3 \o/

That settles it. DS4 it is and it's my birthday next month so time to add it to my wishlist Very Happy

I'm using generic one for 3x less price than xbox 360 one (DS 3 copy) with MotionJoy drivers + BetterDS3 and it works perfect with all games and proper button placement. Not that im about to use gamepad for gta v with auto aim and shit for noobs But i might use it for a while if i want to try this on the new TV a took recently AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D / MSI Gaming X Slim GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER / ASRock B650 PRO RS / Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360 / G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo 2x16GB DDR5-6000 CL30 / Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB / SeaSonic VERTEX GX-850 850W Gold / Lian Li LANCOOL 216

@mtj I'm pretty sure you could map your throttle/sticks to fly the planes in this, if you really wanted As for "DS4"; "DualShock 4" the controller for the PS4.

@sabin: DS3 Controller sucks, DS4 are better but if you are used to the stick placement of the ms controller stick to them. i even think the way u use the left stick ends up in a more precize aiming but as we are talking about gta, controller is needed only for flying. hotswap was confirmed by a german magazine a few days ago

Yep, from your comment before, I thought I might have been missing out on some other functionality that BDS3 provides, but DS4W is great.

It works so well that I've worn the damn thumbstick rubbers off from all the use it gets on my PC.

Aye mate, for me I made quite a lot of use of BDS3's profile options, switching between xinput/dinput and even having customised button layouts for improving older games. With a 360 controller, or any standard xinput, you're stuck with the default MS layout unless the game lets you change - and even then, many games saw the dpad as a hat switch rather than separate inputs, which some older games don't let you map to. It was a PITA but BDS3 lets me change all that whenever I want, without compromise, and now it looks like DS4W has the exact same functionality.

Happy!

I've had PS3 controllers for years, I don't think they suck at all, and I'm used to the twin-stick layout ever since the PS1. MS's staggered layout is fine if you're not using the d-pad all that much, but I do.. I play more emulated/older/2D/etc games than I do 3D/TPS ones.

~edit~

Anyway, on topic; the US release unlocks in 20 minutes, yes? According to PCG, Pacific US unlocks at 4PM (16:00) on the 13th of April.

Ofcourse, we seen it with every high profile game or steam sales.

There's login,download (not only the patch, expect last minute buyers),unlocking and everyone having to log into Rockstar Social Derp... It's more sensible to expect it being fucked up than to say: Steam has great servers, nothing will happen.
