Why doesn't a PS4 controller work with this game?

What? my PS4, Xbox ONE, Xbox 360, Nvidia Shield & Steam Controller works perfectly.

Did you connect the controller first before opening the game?

My steam controller doesn't work. Or more accurately, everything by my ability to move works.

An Xbox One controller works just fine. A Playstation 4 controller does not.

PS4 controllers require custom drivers to work on PC. Microsoft, duh, owns XBox so Windows ships with Xbox controller drivers.

Google it.

Pardon me then, I'm old. I am still using Windows 7 which does not include PS3 or PS4 controller drivers by default.

Then again, I have not tried to plug in a PS3/4 controller for a few years now. They may have added the device the approved W7 driver list. (Did Sony really pay $500 for a driver certificate? For PC? REALLY?)

Just got my PS4, so first I tested it on my PC. Connected it by bluetooth and it worked, connected with a USB cable and it worked too.

Automatically installed in about 5 seconds and worked right away.

Welp, I need to go buy a PS4 controller for my PC then. I have been using a crappy $10 Logitech pad. Which is fine for NES/SNES emulation stuff, but feels lacking with PS2 emulation and PC games.

The Steam Controller won't work with DbD because of macro related stuff, the PS4 controller needs a program to translate the button inputs into Xbox 360/One button inputs, you can probably find out what program does this online.

Just use a driver...

So you want me to throw some guy out of his car, shove him into the USB outlet, and play DBD with him?

[Burgundy]

Yes.

I'm fairly sure implementing Dualshock 4 support is relatively easy and Sony even provides tools for the developers to do it. It's just laziness from the developers part.

But then again I could be entirely wrong.

I used to use PS4 controller with DBD, it works fine, but you need to run Steam in Big Picture mode for it to work correctly.
