Hey everyone! What’s your preferred input method for fps games on the deck? I find myself going back and forth between flick stick and trackpad. For me trackpad feels more natural but flick stick feels more worth the time investment? If I spend time with flick stick on the deck then I could also use it when streaming moonlight to my tv or at my pc.
Which do you guys prefer?
How does one fps with them I can’t figure it out lol
It’s definitely not everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s entirely possible. That is why Valve put those trackpads in even though it would have been cheaper to just leave them out. Two giant trackpads take precious real estate in such a small form factor after all.
Yeah I feel like my hands are too small to reliably use them. Same with analog stick, shooters somehow are just awful for me haha.
My approach is to have the sensitivity high enough that I aim entirely with the gyro and use the touchpad for twitchy fast turns. I have a hard time aiming if I have to move too much. Don’t really play gyro games on the Deck, but with a standalone controller I go with 180 sensitivity on a full edge to edge swipe of the touchpad, and have the gyro set so a 90 degree rotation of the controller results in an in game rotation of 675 degrees for first person or 450 degrees for third person. This video might make it make more sense visually. This makes it so I get a consistent gyro experience I like across different games.
