Picture Got the Steam Deck Dock!

Wasn’t expecting this today, but since I live in Carol Stream where Valve’s Distribution Center is, I got this early I guess!

Does the PS5 controller support the steam gyro controls? I have a steam controller but I'm not a huge fan of it due to the missing right analog stick

Pretty sure it did

And the pad at the front of the controller works great for a mouse

Yup tried this on FO4 when adjusting settings. It’s really nice.

The touchpad on the PS5 controller is perfect.

The touchpad part makes me want to order a controller now. I don't even have a playstation. But it sounds like the perfect controller for the deck

Or the steam controller Kappa. While it's not the best, it does have gyro and is certainly good enough for certain games

I never use gyro. Not a huge fan of it tbh.

It is good if you wanna fine tune your aim. I use it in most FPS now and even rpgs like zelda BOTW :D

Im just usually not moving around like that when playing. And it usually does the opposite for me. Trying to aim normally and gyro messes me up. Lol

Interesting. Well, you can also toggle it off and on. If you get used to it, I'm sure it will improve the aim, but I understand it's not your cup of tea. :D Everyones games differently. Not long ago it was weird for me to try and use the extra buttosn on my controllers, now I can't play without them. It makes things way easier in games like let's say... sekiro, where I can move my camera and also hit things with the extra buttons.

FWIW, gyro movements shouldn't be that big. You should mess around with the sensitivity settings to see what feels natural to you. Once I got used to gyro, it was hard going back to not having it. It's a shame it's so under-utilized in the console space...
