Had to install this app which then made me sign in (using my work PC) to update the firmware on my damn controller. Wish there was a way to do this in Linux. I'm so over Microsoft's crap.
Why does a game controller need updates??? I'm stuck on PS3 knowledge, someome help me out here.
Well, I can tell you trying to use the Xbox controllers I have on Linux, with Bluetooth was a nightmare until their firmware was updated.
Absolute pain in the ass. Had to spin up a Win10 VM to get my controllers working.
You can avoid that by not using MS controllers in Linux, or using old controllers with a cable. My Retropie has xbox 360 controller support compiled in and every controller works OOB.
Xone is a kernel level driver and works with newer Xbox controllers. It’s worked flawlessly for years. All I had to do was make sure the controller’s firmware was updated once. The firmware update improves Bluetooth, but if you use a Microsoft dongle, it’s always worked without the firmware update.
So with a 10 min firmware update effort 2 years ago, my gaming rig supports all the controllers you brought up (for some reason?), plus modern ones.
Well, in the case of the Dualsense on PS5, they've made changes to improve things like haptic feedback, controller volume output from the speaker, better noise cancellation on the mic (though I doubt anyone uses that) and if you have the latest PS5 models (pro or non-pro), you now have adaptive charging.
I wish I had a way to permanently disable that mic. Why the fuck is that even there? Do console players use these?! All it does is yank priority from my actual mic if I plug it in to charge.
Almost every game that uses the speaker is even more annoying.
The exceptions being the Astro Bot games, because the sounds tie in to the haptic feedback.
Sony does hardware features well pretty much across the board. It completely changes the experience without dominating it.
Third parties seem to either halfass it or ignore it.
You can disable it permanently: https://www.thegamer.com/disable-mute-ps5-dualsense-microphone-party-chat/
Looks like that works on PS5, not so sure about PC. I will investigate when I get home, thanks for the tip!
Oh brother, do people ever use the controller mic. They especially love to do it when they play music from their phone speaker on their lap. And they never use headphones, so when you unmute yourself to say "Hey, can you turn your mic down a bit? I can't hear the game," you end up blowing out your own eardrums hearing yourself through their TV at full volume.
Its called surveillance capitalism.
Microsoft is first and foremost a company that aims to profit on the data it can gather.

I can update four controllers at a time using this method.
Lots of things, just like with any hardware and software, issues can happen and some of those can be fixed with software. Also new features, I have a Gulikit KK3 which has gotten a lot of new features and improvements since I received it (won it in a giveaway), it was already the best controller I have ever used and it's awesome to see them still continue to improve it.
Mine worked under Linux without hassle
