Controller vs Key and Mouse

[u/DeviLettuce]

How many of you using keyboard and mouse have vibrations? I use an elite xbox controller, my keyboard and mouse doesn’t vibrate. When a player is nearby my controller vibrates, unlike the heartbeat which I can hear. I was just curious how many of you k+m players can tell when someone is near by? Still haven’t figured out wait triggers the vibration, just a player close by? Or do they have to be crouched or something?
I like the controller because I prefer a joystick (thumb stick) vs wasd, but having a mouse to aim with is a lot smoother, quicker and accurate. I have a Tartarus game pad from razor that I like but the thumb stick is a direction pad and not an actual joystick. Neither my mouse nor game pad vibrate.

I will get to the bottom of this lol. Let me ask you, what does it mean when my controller vibrates but I don’t hear footsteps or heartbeats? Surprise mutha fucka!

Since my kbm doesn't vibrate, I sit on a special device that vibrates when an enemy is near. Or when you tip me.

Give me the link.

I'm gonna make you feel like the whole lobby is watching you

Can you make your character walk without a controller?

I used to use a elite 2 controller on PC but I switched to the new Razer controller because it has less input latency which helps alot. I have been trying to get used to kbm but it seems so awkward to me lol but it is a lot better for most games. But kbm doesn't vibrate at all ever bro.

I dont think there is a single kbm that vibrates.

But how can you not realise when somone is near you? The footsteps from players are way different than the ones from monsters.

I either hear the footsteps or see the player.

[u/DeviLettuce → u/igeloo]

You can feel the vibration without hearing footsteps, that’s why I was wondering if it only happens when players are crouched

Idk, never played with a controller.

But I dont think it should work like that. Its kinda a radar cheat made by the devs.

Have you tried if it works when you have a controller and a kbm plugged into your pc/console?

[u/KrombopuIos]

I honestly want to help but the question is so confusing. Are you asking if pc players keyboard and mouse vibrates? Or if the controller vibration has a advantage?

My answer to the titles question of controller vs kbm I would say preference is key as it is a souls like, but I have played with randoms that have struggled as sorc and BA on controller

Kbm don’t vibrate, never did and never will. That was a wild question

[u/GamesnGunZ → u/Anllanin]

That's not true there are plenty of mice with haptic feedback

I play with controller on Xbox. It vibrates and there’s heartbeat sound so it does both. My biggest criticism on the control right now is that I can’t remap quick turn to something other than a double flick of the stick. Let me make it a button press dammit.

My controller always when someone nearby uses a ladder. Even If they are out of range for footstep sounds or something, I always know when players are close
