^ Faggots who've never used a XIM or any other adapter. If you think using one of these magically makes you better, you're absolutely fucking wrong.

You're EMULATING analog movement. Ever used the wonky ass mouse controls on PCSX2 or Mupen64? Literally the same thing.

You're still limited to what the controller can do
You're still limited to how fast the game allows your turn speed
You're still limited to how "responsive" the controls are in game

No, get Xim4 instead. It's by far the best option. Actually it's the only good option, all others have grave flaws and/or are missing important functionalities (like different aiming behavior between aiming down sights, hip fire, vehicles, etc are not a thing you can change - which makes some games unplayable) and aren't supported nearly as much.
You NEED to micromanage acceleration, curves and various numers for each and every game for the mouse emulation to work well, and Xim4 is the only one with a community that will give you updated settings. All others (including the officially licenced Hori) either have a general setting for every game or just 1 setting per game at best which you can't change enough (so you are stuck with it, like it or not)

I don't care if the Xim4 costs double or triple compared to the alternatives. Either don't buy any of them or buy the Xim. It'll be a waste of money otherwise. It's like buying a cheap and worthless $40 arcade stick that moves around because it's so lightweight or investing the (current) minimum of $120-150 for a decent one,

notice how it says. "1 to 1 feel" and not "true 1:1"
it's like when companies put, "made with 100% cheese" vs "made of 100% cheese" when it says, "made with 100%" that means one of the ingredients really is 100% cheese, but it'd only make up 1% of the actual product, while the rest is 99% chemical additives
it's corporate trickery
>>
>>382162382
Moving the stick for a 10% gradient results in radically different behavior from flicking on 100% for 1/2 a second.
Keyboard's easier for for small precise movements, granted, but only up to a threshold where you CAN'T get a small enough movement & the 0-100 starts to fuck you up.
Analog's smoother & ultimately has a higher skill ceiling.
>>
>>382161008

That's handles by the device you morang. All the main controller does is export the data from the mouse part in a format the console reads as analog stuck input.

>>382162561
I can't imagine very well.

The way an optical lens works is by sending digital signals to the computer via polling, sending a confirmation back, and calculating the position. With third person shooters you're basically just ad hoc-ing the mouse to a analog device and expecting it to run digital signals concurrent with the design, but all you're really doing is getting the mouse to sense dots per inch to the analog without any of the actual communications that help the DPI feel smooth in the first place.

Facebuttons are on the mouse, & in the OP they're also where the triggers normally are.
So for PC, if you play with controller settings you'll still have mouse look/aim with analog movement.

Which is also a good thing for console plebs who have never tasted mouse-aim.

Not all games need all the inputs of ARMA. In fact very few do.

It's not 1:1 but using one is far better than a stick if set up correctly because it's allowing you a degree of movement precision that a stick just can't match even if that has to be translated through acceleration curves like a stick would.

>>382165258

>>382165751
Even in your lap, manipulating any of the buttons/stick will put force into the controller.

>>382171369
if there isnt a rule saying you cant do that, sure.

heres the thing, rules that dictate maximum turning, pressing speeds can, and are implemented into games. its why you cant use auto-clicking controllers in them to press or shoot faster then the rules dictate. try using it on a game where the semi auto fire of a weapon is more accurate then full auto. youll notice it limits you. this is a rule, its put into place to stop people from exploiting this
making a keyboard or mouse unable to move or react faster then a controller is possible to implement, and simple. its ALREADY done with every game that limits fire rates.

so if it dosent restrict you, its because...there is no rule. and dont pretend the dev dosent know because thats how devkits for consoles work, you plug in a keyboard and mouse to dev shit. they tested it with a keyboard and mouse as well. there is no rule, thats it.

You know, your keyboard and mouse are also 2 completely seperate hardware parts, seperate inputs, seperate controllers, right?

I agree with you, but your analogy is retarded.
If players using a mouse are made identifyable and there are servers available for people to play together based on normal or shit input if they don't want to get stomped/have no resisitance, it doesn't matter.
You can hop onto any quakelive server with an n64 controller or steelbattalions desk if you want, the game is still the same. If at one point people find out an ever better solution to fps controls than mouse+kb i'm sure people will use it in competetions and have fun with it.

If you can completely break the game by silly controllers than the game itself is shit.

Calling someone tryhard for using kb+m to beat controllers i can agree with, they want to feel good beating players that mostly use gimped controls.

The game is the same (eating/fps) and you still need to do the same things to play at high level (dunk dogs in water/know maps and gameplay well) but some things for mouse men are just easier (picking up dogs/keeping sights on enemies.)

Joystick movement isn't ideal in every game though, joysticks are less precise so you get buttfucked in something like Counter Strike where you need quick control over your movements, and it makes things like rocket jumping harder too. It's really only good in slow games like Rainbow Six Siege or for playing game with driving and shooting.

>>
Guys stop being retarded. You are talking to people who play FPS on console in the first place. Let them think whatever they want. Let them think their xim is as good as PC controls. Let them think it matters what Microsoft and Sony approved - as if PC gamers even give a fuck what the developers approved, much less their OS vendor. Let them autistically screech about controls while ignoring that different people have different screens and internet, which will make as big a difference as this stupid control converter. PC players don't complain that their opponent has a better mouse than them. Because they aren't retarded. My opponents can use a guitar hero controller for all I care but even someone THAT retarded wouldn't complain that I am cheating by using a steelseries 300 and not the mouse that came with my monitor.
>>
>>382176976
Sony has officially approved M&K emulators from Hori that function just like the Xim4. So your argument goes down the shitter.

Right now your comparison is as retarded as saying that buying an unofficial arcade stick (which are 90% of them) instead of the handful of official ones in production is "cheating" because it's not 100% approved by Sony.

Fucking console niggers. they can't git gud so they have to rely on everyone being gimped to have a good time.

I honestly have no idea why you'd use that abortion of a controller for your left hand, though. Looks fucking awful. Use a god damned joystick for your left hand and a mouse in your right. If these things support multiple inputs that'd be god tier for a Battlefield like game. You could use a hoystick on your left hand, mouse on the right, and have a second joystick or throttle when you hop into an air vehicle.

If you were "interested" enough in a console fps to get a XIM4, why not just play it on PC? The controller may be trash, but that doesn't mean you can't be good enough with it to do well in MP. The real reason is that people like this would be trash on PC and trash on console, so they need something to handicap the already inferior console players.
>>
>>382179423
There's no way they'd fucking know. Console niggers are just fucking retards anyways. Their leader boards have been a joke for decades. They'll start screaming shit as soon as you start doing well no matter what. I blew ass at MW2 and only played it ironically, and I'd still get accused of using an aimbot every time I played. Back when I was like 15 my bro and I would play BFBC2 and rape the fuck out every one, and get accused of cheating, nevermind there were no fucking cheats for that game. We were just high on meth. Yeah, never mind you can't turn on voice chat without hearing 99% tasteless profanity, some people using their preferred input are ruining console online multiplayer.

It's taking the absolute x and y changes from the mouse and turns them into stick positions. E.g. You move the mouse to the left 2 seconds, the software in this thing converts it into holding the stick at position X=-2 Y=0 for 2 seconds.

The Steam controller can also do this. You can have mouse-like aiming on a game that doesn't support simultaneous Gamepad+Mouse.

OK, seems like both this & the Venom X4 can make the mouse x-input (mandatory for making sure the analog stays analog)

Venom has more mouse buttons/a better mouse & more flexible software.

This is actually a pro since it allows you to immediately change your direction fully which allows for stutter stepping, an infinitely more useful ability than jogging at a 30 degree angle. And besides outside of some non-competitive games there's basically no reason to ever go anything but as fast possible or slow enough to be quiet. And before you go >but racing games those are better played on dedicated peripherals.

Triggers make absolutely no difference in modern shooters.
Almost every modern fps uses digital inputs for movement, which means analog sticks don't give you any advantage. You want to make precise movements into 8 directions rather than imprecise movements into freeform directions.
Analog is useful in games such as Souls where locking on and running at slight angle towards enemy might actually be useful, but try CS for a moment with gamepad and you realize what kind of pain in the ass strafing in and out of cover with analog stick is.
Being able to immediately switch from -100 to 100 with extreme precision is much higher advantage than minute detail in movement direction, something you can already carefully control with the mouse anyways by turning around.
