Do you prefer digital or analog triggers?

Do you prefer digital or analog triggers?

Doesn't make a difference in any of the games I play.

I prefer they be springy and responsive to how far you push them down

Digital
They feel better, I know there are some games that need analogue triggers but only a handful, it should be an option.

gamecube controller is still the best.

hey're pretty pointless if they're digital

Digital buttons are more satisfying to push IMO

Not being analog kinda misses the point of being a trigger, at that point it's just 4 shoulder buttons like the Dualshock 1 and 2.

They both feel like shit for gunplay and analogue is the only one that actually works for vehicles, why does digital even exist

Digital. Why do we have mandatory analog shoulder buttons anyway? Racing games? These are fucking dead.

You realize there is drivan in games that aren't Forza right

shame about that stiff d-pad though

I thought you fags wouldn't shut up about GTA V driving? Let alone the knockoffs.

Unless you are playing a racing game they're as completely worthless as analog face buttons were 99% of the time on PS2. And they have the same effect of making the buttons mushy, awful and unresponsive but dialed up to a huge degree. Fuck this meme that analogue triggers are always better and should be standard, not niche.

...

>digital triggers
???????????????????????????

thats analog
yes analog is better, especially for games where you drive vehicles

You either fire a gun or you don't.

I'd call that a pretty digital trigger.

>Unless you are playing a racing game they're as completely worthless

Makes a difference in quite a few GameCube games that aren't racing games though.

What if you half fire it?

Yeah, just like the PS2's analogue face buttons "made a difference in quite a few games".

Silly user, you can't perform half a gunshot.

>GameCube

We're talking about video games here not children's toys

then they're not triggers. They're just buttons. The triggers tend to be analog for the sake of versatility.

No, not like that.

hold my beer

Steam Controller triggers are kino for gun shooty actions, they're dual stage and can be set to perform different actions depending on whether you held the first stage before clicking the second stage or just clicked it all the way through

>pull trigger half way
>hammer only goes back half way
>release trigger before action completes
>no shot is fired

*worst
That thing was made for mutant hands along with the N64 controller

what about pushing down a gas pedal? Do you either floor it or take your foot off?

>tend to be

They're still triggers. They were fucking named that after the Z-button trigger on the N64 controller. Which was digital.

>shooting with analog triggers(L2/R2) instead of the digital shoulder buttons(L1/R1)
Fuck this shit, I had to change that in BF4 on the PS4.

The Z "what"?

Then you haven't shot the gun at all.

Pannenkoek at least actually jumps.

I was giving an example of a digital trigger. Not making a statement that analog ones don't exist.

They did, considering that the PS2 did not have analog triggers. How do you think people controlled their throttle in GT games?

Yes. It's a button AND a trigger.

The PS2 did have analog triggers though you dolt. They didn't move as much physically as people are used to now, but they were fully pressure sensitive.

controller for handlets

>what is pre-travel
>what is breaking point
>what is over-travel
>what is a two-stage trigger

You said Anal-log

It's a button. Just a button.

>that the PS2 did not have analog triggers

t. never played Ace Combat

lewd

Why not vibrating triggers that feel like they have a variable resistance to pressure?

I know how it works. But the gun is either fired, or it isn't.

I disagree.

Irrelevant, the trigger itself is not binary.

>press trigger
>trigger struggles to move
>m-matte onii chan! if you move too fast I'm gonna break!
>trigger visibly blushes

>be analogue
>*breaks your R2*
Lol, thanks Sony. Guess I'll have to open up my controller again for the third time in 11 months so o can temporarily fix it again

just get a fucking bop-it or something then

The result is. Which is what would matter in a game.

Incidentally, do any games actually simulate tre hammer travelling according to applied pressure?

The Triggers were kino though
>that click

I don't see the purpose of buttons in the form of analog triggers, that particular input style only makes sense as an analog trigger. Digital triggers would be better off as an extra pair of simple shoulder buttons. Digital triggers with long travel like analog triggers are nonsensical.

I like the triggers on the Steam controller, those are fucking amazing. They're analog but with a button click at the end of their travel and you can bind different shit to the analog part and to the end button press if you want.

>The result is. Which is what would matter in a game.

You're the one arguing that a real life trigger is binary, retard. don't go moving goalposts just because you're wrong.

Digital or dual stage (gamecube or steam controller)
Analog is shite.

It was sort of a deep spring-like CLONK with a bit of echo in mine. Felt a little dangerous rather than sleek.

Fucking stop. Those triggers were almost as bad as the ones on the PS3 controller.

>dual stage

Because cars, planes and spaceships only have two speeds

It's analog with a digital trigger at the bottom you fucking retard.

The dual stage triggers on the Steam controller are fully analog and have an extra button click at the end of their travel.

That's not what dual stage means you fucking inbred

Digital. Analog triggers are only useful for compatibility with games that require them. Anything else and they feel terrible.

do you prefer shit or bread?
you have to be a Nintendicksucker to ask such a retarded question.

Nah man, I fairly straight up stated that it was just the result that was binary from the beginning.


I know the trigger on a gun isn't actually binary, but the concept of a binary trigger isn't really mysterious, like acts like.

I didn't come up with the name idiot.

Faggot bitch

Ghost Recon Future Soldier did, at least on Xbox 360; to the extent that one of the gun customization options you could unlock was a competition trigger with a lighter trigger pull to make firing faster. The PS3 version put the trigger on the shoulder buttons, making the upgrade useless.

Destiny also has it with the hand cannons, where pulling the trigger slightly will raise the hammer and turn the cylinder for the shot.

Haha, no.

Do you console plebs really lack this much perspective?

That's pretty spiffy.

>making the upgrade useless
Because any version with a digital input doesn't have the handicap of analog to overcome

Do you?

It is. As it was I played it on PS3 and the fact that I couldn't have fancy race triggers on my guns pissed me off. I love games that feature that kind of autistic detail, stuff like Receiver for example.

Alright smartypants, let's use the word superfluous then.

No. Now answer the question.

You say that as though they aren't one and the same.

Similarly, the answer is no.

Maybe if you're a Nintenbro

Clearly you do if you're defending the GC controller

I got mine recently and the triggers are impossible to get used to, i just set things to soft pull and remove hard pull

I got used to face buttons low and how hard the touch clicks are but not to triggers

>the word filter activated
Now I know you don't play video games.

>implying I don't ironically say Nintenbro anyway

I'm just ridiculing the notion that the triggers are as bad as those on the Sixaxis or DualShock 3.

>he doesn't deny it

They are. You have to mash those fuckers to get a response.

>A gun shot has three stages
>The pulling of the trigger
>The trigger being held
>The trigger being released

>Those triggers were almost as bad as the ones on the PS3 controller.
>Concave and sturdy
>ever as bad as convex and flimsy
What now?

How many controllers have you broken? Don't you remember Mommy telling you she wouldn't buy you any after the console came with one?

I play video games every day. I know that deviates from three status quo around here but Sup Forums isn't one person.

>place controller down
>accidentally shoot because sensitive trigger
>aggros everyone in the room
>fail mission

who's idea was it to not have some shield to guard the triggers

PS4 triggers are fucking terrible, literally the only thing stopping me from maining a PS4

>Sup Forums isn't one person
You sound a lot like the other guy (faggot).

Never had a PS3 controller lose a trigger. Had a lot of GameCube controllers get theirs stuck though. Maybe if they had fuck all sensitivity I wouldn't have to mash them in.

What are you even talking about.

Did it ever occur to you that the mashing may have messed with the sensitivity?
Just a thought user.

Broken? None. How may have outright failed on me is the question, to which I respond countless, but mostly Nintendo controllers.

King list right here for you plebs.
Double Joycons>Single Joycon>Wii U Pro after a full charge>Switch Pro after the D-pad fix for autistic people>GCN for analog needs>kam>xbone>whatever the fuck the ps1 had>everything else
You can't beat the Joycons, that HD rumble is the best action most of you will get in your lives.

>proving my point

user, controllers don't just break on their own.
You need to be gentle with your tech.
