Playing Helldivers 2. My brother on the desktop on the living room TV. Me on the SteamDeck on the couch next to him. Playing co-op together.

    I’ve played a few FPSes on my Deck and I always map the joystick to medium sensitivity and the right track pad to low sensitivity and then enable gyro if the left stick is being touched so I have two ways of precision aiming. If the game supports it I map left stick click with 180 spin which covers almost all of the necessary movements.

      Gyro on the LEFT stick is interesting. I usually have mine always on, but I guess with the track pad and everything you don’t need to reach for the d-pad?

            There’s more then one way to gyro, so I guess I shouldn’t have said it’s THE way to go. But it’s my preference. I treat gyro as an aggressive auto aim without the auto. Large motions are still controlled by the right joystick or touchpad, I just gyro for the fine, fast aiming. I’ve never felt the need to ratchet, I can reorient by swiping the touchpad intuitively.

              I don’t use my touch pad a whole lot, so maybe i should test it out some! Ill give your way a shot sometime soon lol

              But in general i prefer my alpakka controller to the steam one anyway, super smooth gyro
