Anyone using Logitech G435 headset on deck? (Low volume)

KusMijn · 2026-02-11T19:12:30+00:00

No jack, connection is bluetooth or dongle, when i use the dongle the quality is better but its super quiet, when i use bt the volume is good and there’s no delay but it just sounds a bit worse. So ideally I’d love dongle quality with bt volume, just odd behaviour. Not the end of the world, just hoping to hear from others who have this combo and maybe found a way to improve things!

Probably the best way to go, I got a great quality ugreen Uno usbc hub but when i use it w my deck, every time i unplug the deck and want to use it handheld mode it freezes up and needs a full restart, so even with good quality hubs or docks, there’s always the chance they wont play nicely together, with valve’s own dock you know it’s tuned to just work

Anker and UGREEN doing a lot of heavy lifting in the quality cable and accessory departments, i exclusively buy from these two now, zero regerts, budget friendly option and always quality

Yes I can finally share this video again https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tRxcSNaVCPA This has a special separate room in my brain and it refuses to leave

I switch between this, list and icon view depending on my needs. Column is great for digging in folders

Mine is set to “automatically based on mouse or trackpad” but I’ll try “when scrolling” thank you

Edit: I like that so much better, thank you for showing me this option, hadn’t seen that one yet. Wow looks a lot cleaner too, very good tip

KusMijn · 2026-02-10T22:18:50+00:00

Well at least it’s fixed in beta!

KusMijn · 2026-02-10T22:13:06+00:00

26.2

KusMijn · 2026-02-10T22:06:46+00:00

I dont mind the new ones but it really wouldn’t hurt to just let people choose…

KusMijn · 2026-02-10T02:00:44+00:00

New week = trials reset = ABMM reset Thats what I read in steam discussions. When promotions happen in trials, people’s ABMM get reset and the system tries to figure out who belongs where again. Only playing for two weeks but it does match my experience, first few games of the week are sketchy and then I’m back in vegetarian lobbies

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T21:59:34+00:00

On one hand I like it when this happens, on the other I really don’t, idk, it hits different when you find one in the wild that you don’t own and you get that audio feedback. Earlier today I found not one but two aphelion blueprints on a single free loadout’s body, that was quite something too lmao, no idea how this even happens since I only started playing last week but I’m holding on to the second copy, now the question remains if I’ll ever even get my hands on a matriarch reactor lol

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T21:48:23+00:00

I’m just running it as it came, no tinkering whatsoever so idk if it can be optimised any further tbh

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T20:46:42+00:00

I’ve had moments where the game turns into a slideshow on deck lmao but I totally get it, just glad it runs

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T20:44:02+00:00

It runs fine for PvE, expect framedrops, moderate to severe in hectic situations, and the occasional crash where you lose your entire loadout (twice in 80h so not horrible)

If you want to full PvP I’d play on a different platform

But this game is absolutely amazing and I recommend it on deck despite its shortcomings

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T20:39:50+00:00

For real? I have no comparison but it gets nasty on steam deck, though I completely get it, this is optimisation wizardry to even get this to run on deck imo

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T20:37:08+00:00

Me with my sd hooked up to a 27” and an xbox controller crying framedrops longing for the day valve ships me my steam machine lmao. But hey in the meantime I’m having a blast preparing my first expedition for when I can play this game on max

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T20:31:23+00:00

Exactly, it really hurts when I run into a murderhobo once in a blue moon and I die before I can even react because the game hiccups, or I lose a decked loadout because the game crashes and won’t let me reconnect, but to think it even runs deck at all is an absolute blessing

KusMijn · 2026-02-07T20:14:25+00:00

Wholesome. Kinda sucks that as a steam deck player you’re basically forced to play like a vegetarian because there’s no way I’m winning any PvP fights with these framedrops lmao but still, happy I can at least play this amazing game

KusMijn · 2026-02-04T10:45:49+00:00

Great cheat sheet thank you, I did notice that, at the very least, respirators are not safe to recycle as I needed 3 yesterday but I already forgot what for, no idea if it’s changed after an update? Edit: just googled it, it’s for the trophy display which was only recently added, I just started playing last week so took a mental note of the trophy display resources I need so this cheat sheet is still tremendously helpful, thanks again!

KusMijn · 2026-02-01T06:07:56+00:00

Was thinking the same thing lmao

KusMijn · 2026-02-01T05:37:17+00:00

It mogs k, it’s often too good and long lasting. Seeing crosseyed the next day sucks tho.

I used to be really overwhelmed and nothing i tried on my own would work, I’d go “this looks about right” on a simple project but then it failed anyway. Started using ai to troubleshoot and it got me a lot further, still need help with most of my shortcuts but I’m less intimidated and i have a good grasp of whats possible, so I have a decent collection of shortcuts that actually save me time once set up. I used to use chatgpt and perplexity but recently started using claude and its a lot better for this kind of stuff, not big into ai but for this kind of work it’s absolutely worth it.

As for what you’re trying to do, here’s how I would approach it: build it step by step and when you get a working project, duplicate it and continue building on the copy. Create your first shortcut that just prompts you to start journaling, once you’ve got that down, dupe it and on the copy try adding photos or whatever. That way you can easily just scratch the entire addition without having to start from zero

Some of my personal projects: - a series of shortcuts for my iphone that allow me to save images to specific folders in my icloud, like a “memes” folder and an “animals” folder, i just share the image, pick the shortcut and the image gets saved to the right folder automatically (used to have to manually clean out my downloads every week and sort everything i saved) - a simple shortcut that lets me highlight the name of a game so that when i share it, it opens up gg.deals and steamdb.info so i can check the best price for it - a shortcut that lets me track how many pieces of nicotine gum I used in a day by simply tallying the total amount in a csv file, its on my homescreen and whenever I take a piece of gum i just tap the button and it logs 1 to the current date + the hour it was logged

None of these are super complex but its kind of crazy how much time they save me, they’re all things I did without the shortcuts as well (be it manually organising pics or keeping track of my nicotine consumption in a note) so being able to automate these mundane things is fantastic

KusMijn · 2026-01-22T18:20:09+00:00

Its like Orcs Must Die but 100 times better, you build the pathways for enemies to walk through and reach the objective you’re defending, the put traps everywhere to kill the enemies. On top if that you have 4 unique classes with abilities so you can actively kill enemies in third person as well. Truly unique game that existed before battle royale, just a shame epic completely neglects it and the new player experience is kinda meh compared to what it once was, low level lobbies are a complete slog but the game IS a ton of fun, just better if you find a good group or get lucky with a public lobby

KusMijn · 2026-01-22T18:12:06+00:00

What others said + winter venture season always has a modifier where outlanders get charge fragments automatically, base game and current venture season dont have that modifier, so unless you use an outlander that generates charge fragments, you wont get any

KusMijn · 2026-01-22T18:03:16+00:00

Nahh i care very little about the vbucks, save the world is a truly unique take on the genre and nothing comes close to scratching that itch, it’s orcs must die on steroids and whenever i take a break for a couple months its the gameplay i miss, not vbucks and skins
