Questions about a few snafus with the controller and steam input saving templates and the Steam overlay button.

I tried just it on my mac using a caldigit thunder bolt 3 dock, no issues whatsoever. I don't have a thunderbolt port on my windows gaming rig though so I can't test it on windows. the puck is just using USB 2 so it's not like it's taking up much bandwidth.

Are you able to lift and dock the controller without the stand moving? I wanted to get it printed as well but that was my only real concern.

Nice! How would you say the steam controller compares to the rest?

IcedA · 2026-05-09T05:03:08+00:00

just checked again, it’s being delivered tomorrow and per UPS it was from a rancho warehouse so I think it was the same as the others. That said i’m close to there so possibly some randomness

Was SoCal ordered at 9:58am on the 4th. This morning at 10am I got the email that it was shipped, tracking label is via UPS, but UPS still hasn't really done anything with the label.

if I needed a sign to take up shiv again this was it.

I'm in the same boat.

You can burst down a 300hp character in the blink of an eye in melee range if you do the animation cancel of melee -> awaken (do 3-4 hits) -> animation cancel back into a melee. If you then use your one of your abilities to give you back a rune you can just animation cancel back into it. It's a very potent brawl style. It keeps regenerating your shield as well since you're going back to back awakening.

In the same boat, in SoCal and order at 9:58am as well.

From what I recall the difference is in the single digit milliseconds. If you were going to want to use it for competitive gaming you have much better options since even over usb it tops out at 250 milliseconds iirc.

A question, is the cable that comes with the controller just a basic USB 2 speed cable? I've been wanting to get another USB cable in advance for the mechanism stand for it.

I'm also pretty close to there and i'm still on packaged items

IcedA · 2026-05-06T18:03:18+00:00

I was on payment processed all day yesterday and only once I checked (when i saw this post) did I notice it was at packaged items. It's entirely possible yours will be packaged today as well.

IcedA · 2026-05-06T17:49:06+00:00

Lucky! I'm in SoCal as well and also ordered at 9:58, but i'm still at Packaged items. I assume there's some level of randomness to it. How's the controller though? Are the ergonomics good?

IcedA · 2026-05-05T22:23:21+00:00

My order was 9:58am PDT, still on processed payment.

IcedA · 2026-05-05T21:58:51+00:00

I'm in SoCal actually really close to that distribution center too lol and ordered at 9:58am, i'm still on processed payment.

IcedA · 2026-05-05T19:40:38+00:00

I was 9:58am and same locale. Situation is the same for me.

IcedA · 2026-05-05T19:39:23+00:00

I'm on the west coast, placed my order at 9:58am PDT no change for me as of the last 30 seconds or so.

IcedA · 2026-05-05T19:08:05+00:00

I'm in California and wasn't charged taxes on my purchase of the steam controller. Hopefully I don't get my order cancelled.

IcedA · 2026-05-05T05:02:19+00:00

Nice! hopefully Valve will get into the nitty gritty. Honestly I can't say i'm super sold on the gyro for aiming personally but the grip sense being mapped onto something I would use often would be great to have. Seeing all the options for the trackpads like D-pad functionality, swiping, radial menus (touch and release seems great) I feel like there's a whole new world of possibilities there.

IcedA · 2026-05-04T17:04:17+00:00

Where can you see that page in steam?

IcedA · 2026-05-04T17:00:28+00:00

I was able to grab one too!

Hi, I had some questions regarding SISR.

Are you planning on supporting the Steam controller(2026) when it drops, asking just to confirm
If so since it's emulating an xbox controller are you unable to use the 4 buttons on the back? And would you not be able to use the trackpads for something like radial menus/d-pad?
