How is everyone coping with the standard DS4 controller with FPS games on the PS4? I hated it will KZ:SF but wasn't sure if it was the game that was ropey or the controller. If I get AW for the PS4; I'd need an alternative controller. I was fine whenever I was on the PS3 but the latest one feels awkward to me. My left stick is also being worn out to buggery.

I haven't had any issues with mine at all.

In general I hate the sticks, they're too short and I don't like the head of them, I have a domed Kontrol freek on the right stick and it much better, but my left thumb dosent like the kontrol freek on the left it's too big, and the stock stick is too short my thumb cramps up.

If/ when I get a scuf, I'll get a medium length domed head on the left and a large length domed head on the right...

Apart from the sticks I like the DS4 a lot...

EDIT: the rubber has come off my left sticks aswell which makes it even more uncomfortable...

Exactly my issue when I was playing Killzone Shitfall. I've looked at getting additions to the sticks including the lifts and grips but I may just say fuck it and get a custom controller instead. The DS4 is fine for any other games especially the ones that don't rely on fast pace and continual movements but it was just a bit horrible in Killzone with sprinting and general moving. I'm more used to the Xbox controllers but even the PS3 one felt much more comfortable than the DS4 was for me.

I have had no issues with the ds4 as such the only problem I used to have, not so relevant lately is it made my hands sweaty, never an issue with the ds3.

Where do you guys look for custom controllers in UK?

The standard PS4 SCUF is £89.99, with the two paddles at the back and the SCUF grip. That's not too bad.

Just found them on lime about same price, font see the point in paying £20 more for a coloured one.

Compared to price of standard controller not bad at all.

[Madjonny 386]

For me it's just the fact of having to choose which buttons I want the paddles to mimic. That's why I'm trying to hold out for the EMR to become available, different games have different needs...

[crippled_viper 258]

Well I'm glad that there is no Dead Silence. So if you're loud everyone else is loud.

 

If and when Scuf does add the EMR to the PS4 controller, I will be most likely looking into that.

If the rubber is gone superglue a piece of sanding paper on it.

Search and Rescue has been confirmed. Eww that kinda stinks of Ghosts and with SnD already confirmed; dunno if we need it really. 

 

I'd rather have Demolition back or Headquarters.

What's you guys view on this

What's you guys view on this

Driftor explained his thoughts quite well in the video. The Battlepacks in BF4 were only useful for XP boosts but most of it was cosmetic crap. Guns also had unlocks such as some sights restricted to these which turned out to be a bit annoying as you couldn't unlock them any other way except by earning those weapon-specific Battlepacks. 

 

EA eventually started charging users to buy Battlepacks if they didn't want to earn them which was totally expected and I can see COD milking this also seeing Activision will be looking to expand on their tedious brand of microtransactions so far. 

[J4MES OX4D 10,055]

Scorestreaks leaked - not sure if it's solely the customisable ones or if this the whole lot. Paladin at 1000 surely isn't the top end?

I love it. It doesn't replace normal unlocks (source: @CallOfDuty "XP progression exists as you know it. Supply Drops, our loot system, adds even more rewards and customization options.") so it's all extras. Mass Effect 3 has a crate system for all of its unlocks and it's addicting. "One more game and I can afford another pack...I got a cool toy in that pack, let me try it out for a few games...oh, one more game for a new pack..."

There are more coming

@CallOfDuty "More scorestreaks. More scorestreak modules. You'll have to wait for November 4 to see them all."

Ah right, as long as you can progress as normal as well that's fine, driftors video makes it seem like this is the only way to unlock stuff.

[J4MES OX4D 10,055]

Wonder what the unlocking system is this time? They'll probably do a Black Ops 2 one; a mix of challenge unlocks and prestige tokens along with Supply Drops for the cosmetics and a few other attachments and possibly pre-made gun and attachment combos. 

 

Very much doubt they'll follow IW and do bloody squad points. That made it so easy and by the mid-point for the 1st prestige; I had enough to unlock every weapon and attachment in the game.

That's a WW2 era Thompson SMG with a futuristic skin. Which is pretty cool!

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

I used to love the Thompson in World at War. Damn it, you guys have me wanting this game.
