Ps4 dpad good or awful?
Hi,

Trying to find new pad for sfv, because xbox one pad, which i use now, has pretty bad dpad. Have thought about getting hori fighting commander, but can't find it on any shop here, so i would have to buy it from like amazon and pay huge transfer fees.

Local gamestop has ps4 pad, so i was thinking that is the dpad good or bad or just decent?

I actually like the XboxOne d-pad, very digital.
The PS4 is more smooth, but that's what I don't like about it.

Sometimes when I hold down back, the game thinks I'm just crouching and not blocking, but that's a bug that affects MOST controllers, not just PS4 ones.

With xbox one pad i have problemd
with qcb and qcf. Seems like they work only when they want to. With arcade stick it works no problem, but other than that, i dont like to play with stick.

Well you won't have those kinds of problems on a PS4 d-pad.

The real problem with PS4 controllers is that they don't last long if you play fighting games on them a alot.

If you know anyone with a PS4 controller, ask to borrow it so you can test it and get the feel for it in SFV.

The "new" DS4 pad is way better than the "launch" version, though.

I'd give the DS4.0 pad a 4/10 and the new one, something close to 9/10 (can do IA legs, IA gale, etc very easily, no trouble for anything)

Dualshock 4 is a great controller for this game. D-pad works perfectly.

I use the PS4 pad because the XBOX pad is really bad for fighting games (and the sticks are placed better on PS).
PS4 pad registers every movement very well so you'll be able to perform exactly the moves you want to perform (I sometimes have a hard time using moves like shoryuken on the 360 pad)
