Hello! As maybe some of you, I’ve heard great things about the first Steam Controller from my friend and I’ve always just stuck with my old and trusty Dual Shock, I have pretty small hands so it fit me. I’ve even adopted the “claw” hand posture naturally to manipulate the camera and running/dodging (Thanks, Dark Souls). I got the e-mail, so I bought SC, waiting for it to arrive now.

Anything I should force myself to really get familiar with so I don’t go back to my “humble” roots of just using the basic few buttons and 2 thumb sticks?

Also do you use the trackpads if so for what?

I used to play mobile FPS games pretty often and always found the whole touchscreen/pad aiming better than joystick so I was wondering how well the SC's touchpads capture that aspect? I heard from some it's feels largely similar and they adapted really quickly.

Alternatively, how are first time touchpad users finding it compared to regular joystick?

I've been WAITINGGGG for this day but this is the one month my finances are not stable enough to drop $100 on a controller (as glorious as it is) as I'm in the middle of moving. I saw the email completely by chance too as my projected reseryation availability was for 2027. So long, Steam controller 🥲 I wish I could share my reservation with someone who could afford it

Repost because somebody forgot to cover all their info...

I thought for a moment that "oh i wasted money. There is nothing special here."

But on next day i was looking on youtube use cases for those touch pads and i also found that i can assign any keyboard key on those back buttons. Now i think that i love it but i still strugle with one missing feature. Is it possible to configure "double tap" on one of touchpads? OR setup that when i click on right side of trackap its right click and on left side left click of mouse?

Currently i use it only to move mouse in Warcraft Forever and it saved my god ammout of frustration when some addon or button still lack support for Gamepads. Cheers. :D

im not talking about gyro to mouse. im talking about the game actually looking for a gyro input to do something special.

Is it possible? My neighbor has a brand new one and doesn’t want it. I have the wingman xb3.

If ANYONE knows a way to use this controller on Xbox X, lmk!

Drop my controller off of the coach, didn't hear it scream so I made it.

But it let out meow instead. 😂

Right trigger acts as if it was permanently stuck in battlefield 6 but no other game has the issue just bf6, anyone got experience with that?

Hello ! I've just started playing deadlock today and used ivanim's controller layout on steam and modified it a bunch to fit my preferences. There's a scoreboard button that you press to upgrade abilities, and you have to stay pressed on it as you do that (square, cross, circle, triangle).

The scoreboard was keybinded to the screenshare button, which I'm not a fan of, but no matter which other button I keybinded it to, it would not let me uprade my abilities at the same time (instead it just does the corresponding attacks they're also keybinded to while the scoreboard is up... so the buttons technically work) it still works perfectly when keybinded to the screenshare button though :(

Anyone else ran into similar issues or would know how to help ? (i know next to nothing about steam controller keybinding)

(And before you comment about that, I physically cannot play keyboard due to a disability)

Has anyone been able to get CFB 27 to work with the steam controller? I have tried almost every troubleshooting tip, even swapped to the beta version of Steam that addresses this issue and I still can’t get it to work.

When I pull the left trigger, I can feel a click at the very end of it. Doesn’t happen on the right side…

Is something not right with my controller here? Anyone else experience this?

I use F24 as my universal push to talk for non-game voice chats, since it'll never conflict with any goddamn thing on this green earth, but can't find a way to bind it to any buttons on the steam controller, even manually editing the config file directly doesn't seem to stick.
Anyone know of any workaround, or if there is none, at least any extremely low conflict alternative keys that can work?
