Battlefield 4: Full DualShock 4 Controller Layout Revealed

lonz3584593d ago

I just wanna see some direct feed gameplay.

I'm glad they moved the aim/fire to L2/R2 triggers. That was my major complaint with the DS3 on (most) ps3 games. The L1/R1 feel cheap and plasticy, while the triggers have a nice weighted response.. and once I attatched a pair of L2/R2 trigger extensions for my DS3, any ps3 games that utilized L2 and R2 for aim/shoot mechanics just felt sooo right..

Comnnsence4593d ago

@ FunkMacNasty ... Man I tried giving you 500 likes for that comment. The L1/R1 for aiming and shooting felt awkward of which turned me away from man PS3 games. The sad part is that they never gave you the option to manually adjust it to your fittings. I wonder why!

majiebeast4593d ago

i was hoping for it being customizable.

KwietStorm_BLM4593d ago

Hoping against hope. For the life of me, I cannot understand why developers don't just give us the options. It's not like anyone is getting an advantage over someone else.

MWong4593d ago (Edited 4593d ago )

I hopr they have that veteran option that was available on the beta. That was very close to the BF3 controller layout.

UnHoly_One4593d ago

In this day and age I don't understand why every game doesn't have fully customizable controls.

I can't think of one good reason why they don't.

GTgamer4593d ago

Putting that Touchpad to use i see lets hope it works well.

BobBelcher4593d ago

eh, I was hoping for something more 'in-game.'
- weapons swap
- grenade toss

nevin14593d ago

If not mistaken, Touchpad in this game will be replacing the missing select button.

Anyway, I still prefer R1 to shoot.

elhebbo164593d ago

You should probably touch the new DS4 triggers before picking preferences... unless you already have ofc.

quinten4884593d ago

Yea, pretty much all PS3 owners will prefer L1 R1 on PS4.

Bathyj4593d ago

I dont care what the triggers are like, I still like R1/L1. On my Trigger finger.

DOMination-4593d ago

The whole point of the trigger buttons is that you usr them as triggers. I know DS3 was crap in this area but you ps3 gamers need to ppay it first before moaning. This is one main reason why 360 controller was best this gen and soon you'll get that too with ds4.

BaSeBaLlKiD7214593d ago

It's actually one of the reasons why I hated the 360 controllers. Hated using the triggers to shoot. R1 feels much more responsive and quicker.

Maninja4593d ago

On the PS3 the select button is used to bring up battlelog.

trenso14593d ago

nope i want L1 and R1 to be aim and shoot that is that only thing i dont like about this layout but im sure there will be other layouts. Ill just have to wait.

Swiftcricket4593d ago

The legacy controller layout should have you covered.

nitrogav4593d ago

What is the legacy layout ? . I feel strongly about the new layout on the beta . So much so I really think I will not be buying Battlefield 4 . Why Dice have changed them so much is beyond me .

Swiftcricket4593d ago

It's a layout that's being added that caters to people that prefer the layout of BF3, which means it should include the switching of the shoulder buttons.

trenso14593d ago

Yea it probably will i read of it in the bf4 hopefully there is something similar. On the ps4 version.

colonel1794593d ago

I would assign AIM to to L1 and GRENADE to L2. I think SHOOT with R2 will feel right with the new triggers, but aiming would still be better with L1. Obviously I still need to try the controller and touch it for the first time, so that is just speculative.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot1512d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw2501512d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1511d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop1511d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno1511d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel1512d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1512d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge1028881512d ago (Edited 1512d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k331512d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge1028881512d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH1511d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
