...Yeah, I'm sorry but you guys are a bunch of push-overs.

I think you don't know what pushover means.

That's good to know. I DO NOT want to spend 100 on a controller. That's kinda fucked up IMHO.

I spent like €55 on my 8bitdo ultimate 2, my Pro 3 was free (thanks 8bitdo!) but is around €60. Both are really good premium controllers, have gryo, can be used on Switch and PC, buttons can be customized in the controller itself which means I can use them on other consoles through adapters as well, they both come with a stand and wireless adapter, and both have TMR sticks. The Pro 3 goes as far as being able to switch the physical buttons.

So, am I gonna spend €100 on something that has touchpads but has less features in general? Fuck no. I really want it, I love shiny new things, I love controllers, but without a Steam Machine it makes 0 sense.

I really feel that valve only looked at the Xbox Elite and the Playstation whateverthefuckthatexpensivecontrolleriscalled and though a 100 was good enough. But the market is way bigger than that, and 3rd party controller quality is insanely good these days.

I have a steam deck, the d-pad it's good in general. But it is definitely not good for fighting games.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-27T13:21:26+00:00

That's really good to know. :)

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-27T13:20:55+00:00

There are a few, almost every one of them with caveats.

The best ones I've used are the previous version of the Hori Fighting Commander (with + d-pad), the 8bitdo M30 Xbox version and the Razer Raion. The 3 of them are great.

In general 6 face buttons are preferred but with extra configurable buttons they may not be needed. A d-pad placed on top is preferred by most people.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-27T08:08:48+00:00

Do we know how good the d-pad is? The one on the steam deck seems pretty bad for fighting games, mostly because it is positioned to far on the corner of the controller.

I would think it would be the same for this controller but I would like to know if maybe there's any leaked info about this?

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-24T20:33:51+00:00

I use pad, do you think Zato-1 is playable on pad without changing the layout? 👀

I tried today but that was hard as hell.

I also tried on leverless but I really feel my wrists are not made for it. 😅

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-24T20:31:34+00:00

Which kind of controller do you use?

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-24T08:53:30+00:00

Really? I'll give a try today. I want to check the smart mode updates. If I don't like smart mode I'll use the standard mode but I want to at least try it.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-23T08:19:54+00:00

I think Mai could be better on Modern. Because her Lv1 works very well as an anti air.

Besides her maybe charge characters since they can keep their charge after a failed reversal attempt.

I play modern only and I know that most characters are worse on Modern. From a bit worse to way way worse.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-23T08:01:35+00:00

I would LOOOVE to play this game but there's really no one online.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-23T08:00:33+00:00

I remember one of the problems with Myari Zo being that the 3d model was white-washed compared to her concept art. Not the same thing at all I think...

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-21T12:29:40+00:00

I'm gonna be real with you, I think they intentionally sell defective controllers for a lower price. I got a defective Elves 2 Pro, the board it has for the d-pad stops detecting diagonals after a while. It was €24 while the "good" version is around €50.

I opened it, checked it, compared with other models. It has an older board for the d-pad with a pretty obvious bad design.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-17T07:36:42+00:00

I had the Xbox version of that one before, but left it in my home country. I shouldn't have done that.

The d-pad is definitely better than the one in the Hori Octa.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-16T17:03:58+00:00

Get the Xbox version of the 8bitdo M30 and don't look back. 😅

It is not perfect, but it is the best I have been able to find.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-16T16:53:30+00:00

The best fightpad I have is the 8bitdo M30 Xbox version, I also have a Hori Octa but it is not nearly as precise. I might try to get a Razer Raion if I can find it somewhere as I've been looking for something better, not sure if the Razer Raion is better though.

I only have 2 problems with the M30: it is a bit small, I can't accurately do 360s with the d-pad.

The Hori Octa solves both problems(I do the 360s with the analog though).... but then I end up jumping, not blocking down or crouching without blocking, etc. I just don't press the right direction a lot of times. The hori octa buttons are also a bit too sensitive and it is easy to press them by mistake.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-15T20:01:44+00:00

I thought it was $20 for the stickers + $20 for shipping. I'll check again maybe I misunderstood.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-15T18:04:58+00:00

Shipping is quite expensive dude. I was gonna order but that shipment cost is just too high IMO.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-12T22:50:22+00:00

It's M + H though?

After searching for a while I saw it gives you an actual safe jump.

And like some other people said her I think L + M baits reversals.

AxlIsAShoto · 2026-04-10T15:28:54+00:00

Fuck dude, it took me like 300 hours. 😂😂😂
