(!) pressure sensitive buttons (!)

[Gironda Curls]

Dude, come on (!)

Can we upvote this so Konami will actually add them back in?

I'm so sick of these lackluster ports.

1. What controllers nowadays have pressure sensitive buttons?

2. If it's a niche controller (PS3), it's not going to work properly on PC. In that case, for controllers like that to work then, you'll have to emulate them to be Xbox 360 controllers. This is how Steam Input makes said controllers functional.

3. In which case, that would defeat the purpose since 360 controllers does not have pressure sensitive buttons, putting you back at square 1.

4. Let's say you found the perfect controller that works on PC with no issues and has proper pressure sensitive buttons. How niche is it? How much dollars do we have to shell out for ONE controller that's going to work on 3 games at most (MGS2, 3, and 4 if and when that one happens).

You wanting Konami to be 100% authentic will make the game unplayable for 99% of the playerbase. I think axing Pressure Sensitive buttons at that point is justified. Still want pressure buttons? I have a much better solution for you:

tbh the only modern controller with pressure button is actually the steam deck Lmao.
But yeah no modern controller has them

presure sensitivy was horrible. MGS3d did it better by having the Dpad be the actions you could do

Pressure-sensitive face buttons are a type of buttons found on certain gaming controllers, such as PlayStation controllers from the PS2 and PS3 generations and first Xbox.

Also with the way game controllers are built now you can find workarounds for it. You can essentially emulate the process. And I believe the PlayStation 4 buttons are pressure sensitive with their L2 and R2 layouts, not including the L1 and L2.

No, no you can not. If that was possible, it wouldn't have been removed in the first place. Where are you getting this delusional take from?

I just want to be able to aim the damn AK or other automatic without firing it off like a moron.

[Ocelot]

I don't care how it gets done^

Click the left stick to ready your weapon. In FPV, hold L1 to aim down iron sights with your weapon (provided they have sights). When you stop firing, you put your weapon down.

Hmm, I mean, you could potentially do it if you dedicate one input to be entirely a "half-input" modifier for every other input, like the mentioned one of bringing the gun up but not firing it until fully pressed.
Probably wouldn't work for aiming and firing actually, now that I think about it, but for anything else where you don't need to go between half press and full press rapidly, it could work...

Thank you I will give this a try.

But that's still a binary solution.

the only solution that wouldnt be a half measure or awkward would literally just be playing on steam deck and get the experience on steam deck since its the only modern controller/device with that feature

Play on the pcsx2 and put the shot and melee buttons on the triggers and you have pressure buttons.

That emulator supports pressure buttons though?

PCSX2 does support pressure sensitive buttons. Been using it that way for a long time with my DS3.
