Thank you so much! I got the dual sense controller just so I can have the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers on pc, and finished an entire playthrough without realizing it wasn't enabled. Just enabled it via your instructions and it's a whole different game!
I've had a Dualsense for pc use since last summer but I've never bothered with the haptic feedback and now for my playthrough of Spider-man remastered on pc I thought it would be worth a shot to get it to work. God's work mate!
Thank you so much!! I was wondering why my controller wasn't giving me haptic feedback or the right vibrations! It's soooo much better to swing around now. Again, thank you!
So you disabled steam controller righr? I'm having this issue. The game detects the controller and thw buttons chabse from xbox layout to Playstation layout but once I'm playing the only buttons that work are the joysticks.
You may have software enabled that's making windows think it's a Xbox controller. Mind you only certain games support dual sense but all I had to do to get mine to work was plug it in VIA USB then right click on steam game and disable controller.@@oscargonzalez6195
50% into the game and I thought the DualSense was just a hyped up gimmick and it was just some random rumbles. After watching this video and knowing if I really needed this I disabled the Steam "Default" Input, launched the game and I couldn't believe what I've been missing out on!! 🙌
@Giga Guides depends because I would consider getting a PS5 when they are in stock in the future. :) DualSense support for Pc games are somewhat limited and not a lot of options but if you plan on playing this game for a while I think the controller is a good addition.
it's been 2 weeks and i felt like i couldn't make them work or maybe they were working but i couldn't feel them. i just diactivated the steam input and now i know that nothing was really working, just moving in the menu was different, thanks so much !!
Thanks very much! I heard about the haptics in a review after I already started playing the game with an Xbox controller. The review did mention the DualSense has to be wired, so had that already. When I first tried it out, I thought "These haptics were definitely overhyped, and don't feel like anything more than basic rumble". After Googling, found your video, and confirmed that I wasn't actually using haptics, as I had "Steam Input" set for the game. Definitely feel a difference now after disabling "Steam Input" option for this game. Cheers!
Man, i need to thank you from my heart. I was playing the game since 6PM in my country, sme i was curios something is wrong, so i start looking, found your video and thanks god. You are my livesaver. ❤️ (I had enebladen steam input, turned it off and now its working).
I followed all the steps you outlined. The controller shows up as an option in the sound menu and it is plugged into the pc. However, disabling Steam Input makes my game crash every time. When Steam input is enabled the game runs fine but I don't have the haptic feedback. Any recommendations on how to fix it? Thanks in advance.
That sounds quite strange. Have you tried running the game with Steam input turned off and the Dualsense unconnected, to see if it boots with just keyboard and mouse connected?
I believe it's because the haptic vibrations are sent out as an audio source, and without any proper drivers from Sony for the controller on PC, basically you have to keep that route for the audio source open manually. It does indeed suck. Hopefully one day we get proper PC support across the board so that it doesn't have to be left enabled.
Thank you! Don’t know why the answer to this was so hard to find and also why it’s even necessary to go through all these steps but oh well it’s working now. This also works for Miles Morales to everyone wondering
So you don’t have to download ds4 windows or update the firmware on the dual sense or anything? You can just go buy a controller and plug it In and change these settings?
Hi, this is strange, but when I choose "disable Steam Input" my controller just doesn't work in game (miles morales). If I switch to "use default settings" it's working, but without any haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, just regular vibration. Do you know what should I do or check to make it working?
@@xx-cf6cu I've fixed it in a mystic way. Those steps worked for me: 1) Disable bluetooth in windows settings (don't really necessary I think); 2) Buy and launch DSX from steam (here with "disable Steam Input" option steam and miles morales finally recognized controller, but as xbox one); 3) Then I exit from DSX and somehow steam and the game found out that the controller is PS 5, not an xbox. And after that everything is working :)
I've done everything, and I can't see to feel any "pull" at the end of the swing, I know the triggers work because it worked with far cry 6, any advice?
If you're playing through Steam, is Steam Input definitely turned off in the Steam properties for the game? Provided you've got that done and you're wired, I'm surprised it's not working. Making sure the controller is enabled as a speaker in the Sound Control Panel is usually just for the haptics, but I assume that's enabled too given you felt it in FC6
@@doguskirma9254 it's certainly only a tiny bit of tension, at least early on in the game. If you slam down R2 you probably wouldn't notice it too much. Or if the Dualsense is the older version with the weaker tension on the triggers.
So it needs to be wired for pc to work. But what about the steam deck? Ik its a handheld pc but does it have the right drivers no stuff to do it wirelessly?
I did all this and still dont feel anything on R2. :-(. Thanks for the video to help. Is there any adaptive triggers feedback on r2, like at the end while fully pressing R2?
So R2 works with a very slight bit of tension to push through at the end to start your webslinging. Then while you are actively webslinging, so with it coming out of your arm and attached to a wall/building, the trigger will get some tension earlier in the press. If you loosen up your finger on the trigger and push it in and out while slinging, you should absolutely feel it if setup correctly. I take it you are getting the feel on L2 though?
Hope they can fix things so adaptive triggers work wirelessly and work by default on steam without needing to disable steam input, kinda sucks that they advertise the feature as fully working but they don't tell you how to actually make it work
Apparently something has changed in how SteamInput treats this controller since your video. Doing exactly what you did caused totally opposite effect - adaptive triggers stopped working. In game menu -> settings -> controller it even made the related settings disappear. Tested it also with Metro: Exodus Enhanced Edition, and there, it was even more curious: with steam input in default mode, adaptive triggers are working (pulling the gun's trigger feels great!). When switching steam input off, adaptive triggers are off, but all of a sudden, the gyroscope kicks in (cool assist when aiming, for someone not used to aim with analog stick). Don't know what to think about it. The device itself is super cool and high quality, but until Sony gets their shit together with PC support, I think I'll stick to XOne pad as my main one. Anyone has similar experiences?
The Xbox layout still showing up just tells me there's probably an emulation layer somewhere. You're sure nothing like DS4 Windows or DualsenseX is open?
so... the audio (haptic feedback) thingy only works if I set the default audio to the controller..... which obviously lets me without audio on my main source, is there any way to enable the haptic feedback without having to set it up to default?
That is honestly quite strange itself, I've not seen that one yet. On my other video, someone mentioned rolling back to Windows 10 helped them get haptics on their controller, so you're not running Windows 11 by any chance? If you are on Windows 10 and it's happening, does changing the USB port the controller is plugged in help? Very weird one, never heard of it happening before! I've currently got one other source set to my normal default, with another set as communications default. Neither of them my Dualsense, has never been an issue. Will have a look around to see if anyone else ever had this as I'm curious as to the solution myself.
@@GatsuRage Glad to hear you got it sorted, and thanks for saying what the issue was too. Will note it down for future reference. Hope you enjoy the game!

How can I know if my dualsense is broken? Because haptic feedback just feels like a regular vibration. And adaptive triggers are so annoying. I don't understand why they won't let me press the button fully. I found all these features annoying and breaking immersion rather than enhancing it. So I got an idea that maybe my dualsense is broken? ..
For webslinging around, the haptic feedback does basically feel the same as turning that off in the options and going back to it, only difference is that having haptics on makes it a bit more nuanced, a bit lighter and more based on the feel of how fast you're going. Doesn't sound like your controller is broken, but this game certainly isn't a showpiece for how well the haptics can work. I can't remember if any of the explosions or surfaces give a different haptic feel later in the game, like how you can feel yourself walking on sand or glass as different textures on Astro's Playroom as an example, but Spider-Man is probably the least interesting for Dualsense features.
I have an odd issue, when using Dualsense (wired)+3.5 mm headphone connected to controller it blasts at full volume regardless of the level of volume set from windows sound panel. None of the other dualsense supported games has this issue. Have reinstalled windows(10 &11) but issue remains. When I use some other audio source it allows control from windows however issue is only when using Dualsense. I can use in-game volume controls to lower the master volume however lowering it decrease the sound based vibrations. Seems audio vibration & 3.5 mm audio gain is linked together for some reason and I could not find any way to fix this.
That's an interesting issue. I've never heard of anyone mention it, but I guess the people who have tried to use both in Dualsense supported games is maybe small? If I get a hold on some 3.5mm headphones in the near future, I'll give it a try for myself, as I'd love to check this out for myself. Do hope you find a way to get it sorted somehow though.
Followed all instructions controller is connected wired got adaptive working but my issue is my controller keeps disconnecting and turning off every 15 seconds
Faulty USB cable possibly? Unless the USB port is being turned off on the PC at times too. Does it only disconnect when you're using it in a game with Dualsense features?
@@OoRacket so far I noticed its pacific steam games spiderman remastered and cyberpunk2077 not sure if it has to do with dualsence features or not but my cable works fine for my elite series 2 controller
It absolutely does, less setup there as you won't have to worry about disabling Steam Input. Though if it's not working and Steam is open, try closing Steam fully, as I know sometimes it likes to try and add an emulation layer to make controllers a mouse on desktop when not running a game on Steam.
If you turn haptics on and off in the game settings, does it feel stronger with haptics turned off in game? Because both sensations are very similar when flying while webslinging, just with haptics turned off, the controller is basically being rumbled at 100%, whereas with haptics turned on, it's a more nuanced feel that's designed to be magnified by how fast you're going etc.
Epic will work fine, with less steps without the Steam Input issue. If you turn off haptic feedback in-game, it'll just blast the haptics with 100% vibration all the time. The haptics are meant to be more subtle when just flying around and the varied levels of rumble they wanted to add. Also make sure the Dualsense is updated to the latest firmware as well via either a PS5 or Sony's official firmware updater for PC, if it's an older Dualsense it might still be on older tweaks to haptics.
It does not have proper Dualsense feedback or triggers, as the game never got a proper PS5 update. If/when Forbidden West comes to PC, that should get Dualsense support. A full list of games that use Dualsense features is available at: www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Controller:DualSense#Games_with_adaptive_trigger_and_haptic_feedback_support
There is support in there actually, and unlike Death Stranding, it actually works! I just checked now to make sure, and it 100% works. If you go to the Audio menu in the Settings menu inside the game and then scroll down, there should be options for gamepad sound support. If you make sure that is turned on, and you can also turn the "Controller Audio Output" option to "Speakers" it 100% works for me on my wired Dualsense.
I recorded a quick video of the settings to change, along with trying to get the microphone to pick up the controller audio to show it works. ruclips.net/video/T1i9-1RK_Gk/видео.html I really hope you can get it working mate.
If you mean the Dualsense features themselves, the complete list of games that support the deeper features on PC is available here: www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Controller:DualSense#Games_with_adaptive_trigger_and_haptic_feedback_support
The thing is right with the steam deck right you can have it Bluetooth or wireless right and haptics work the same way I assume it does right because obviously under remastered version right there's two versions as in like the vibration intensity to you right but even if I do plug-in it feels exactly the same so I have no idea exactly what I'm supposed to be feeling the only thing it doesn't work is adaptive triggers when I'm staying with her so I'm thinking maybe it doesn't work on steam deck right but it feels like it does because like how can I explain it when I plug my PS5 controller into the PS3 and I played a game right for example from playing at Fallout 3 you right with the PS5 controller I can feel the haptic feedback as in like if I have a chainsaw alright and I'm basically chainsaw in the way right at I don't know say a cinder block I can feel the difference in each like groove of the chainsaw Noreen at it's in the block the same thing if I move it straight to metal active vibration intensity changes and I tested it also with a normal PS3 controller and the vibrations don't change it's just one single node why so I'm thinking it's weird because like I don't know how I've never noticed that something obviously maybe it's something to do with the PS5 controller because I also did try with Xbox controller and yes with the experts to ensure that I had to use an adaptor to pay you to get it working right but I tried with Xbox and it plays exactly the same as a normal vibration motor so I think the PS5 works well with PS3 games in the way that they would almost work on is it original device which is the PS5 play it's not going to be exactly perfect as in like is not going to be by like I don't know what examples save your plane infamous 1 it's not like you're going now or I don't know if you're playing GTA v you don't like you're going to feel every single raindrop right you gonna feel bits and bobs every single raindrop right it's not like that but it's almost immersive va like GTA v on the PS3 using the PS5 controller yeah the haptic so great obviously there's no adaptive triggers right because you know it is a PS3 game where but the vibrations feel almost on par with what we have on the PC side when you plug it in or even no I haven't really been on the PS5 but like on the PC side yeah it feels just almost the same obviously without adaptive triggers for the PS3 so I think the technology dad to PS5 controller actually has it does change thing is the reason why even if you plug your PS5 controller into your PC and I don't know you you play music or not even play music you like you set their sounds of the game that you're playing to the controller like you change the volume to the controller output you can every it feels dukinfield have to feedback right because I think I was playing need for speed when does old need for speeds right I like a plant the PS5 controller into PC and that's not a driving about that I could feel the Malta right I could feel every time the gear shifted I could feel every time a car passed me like I can feed on my left on my right side and the felt awesome I've never felt felt that before and it's just just I can't wait until it gets to a point where we can just have a whole haptic suit and just feel everything like I know we can over give your life but obviously without the dangerous you know I mean or basically heart palpitations are literally even dying but yeah it's it's getting impressive and I'm amazed at what Sony has done that yes we all know Nintendo could do better but they've taken too long so I need one of them and that's the great thing it's only has finally invented something that Nintendo heart is going to have the copy or make better it's not the other way around anymore for example the PlayStation move
If this doesn't work for anyone, I got it working by going into big picture mode and disabling Playstation Controller Configuration in controller settings. These 3 steps didn't work for me until I disabled that option.
I hate wires why won't it work on Bluetooth I get wireless hepatic but not the triggers hopefully don't will update the firmware for the controller soon Sony get to it. You can get the pad to vibrate wireless but not the triggers.
Bugger, I already knew it worked wired, I'm here to find out why it doesn't wirelessly. All well and good when I'm at my desk but wanna play on the couch with the TV and ain't no cable reaching that
If you go to the audio settings in the game then scroll down to the gamepad settings in that menu, make sure it's enabled, and change the bottom option of "Controller Audio Output" from Auto to Speakers, it should work. I've tested it, and the audio is a lot louder coming through the speaker than even the PS5 version
Any people in here has been try the dualsense on PC (Pirate games)? Is it the haptic feedback and adaptive trigger works as well? Really appreciate for your feedback
U should add that snippit lol I figured it out but just do others ask, good video I should also add after I stopped ds4 windows I didn't have to enable the duelse in the audio settings but still worked
The haptics and triggers are very weak in comparison to playing on PS5. My guess is Sony gimps them so they are superior on their console. Then again, this game wasn't designed for haptics and adaptive triggers. Maybe they will be more true to console for Miles Morales. (Edit: I just turned on my Elite Series 2, and vibrations are waaaay better & stronger on it. Not going back to Dualsense. Just to be clear: Dualsense is great on PS5 but not so for this game on PC.)
I've actually found the opposite myself over this particular game. This was also with both the launch model Dualsense, fully updated for the latest firmware, and the updated Dualsense that came out with the galaxy colours, that has the stronger possible tension on the triggers. The game's haptics feel stronger on PC for both controllers, versus immediately switching to the PS5. Triggers felt pretty much the same, but there was a stronger PC vibration feel when flying around, webslinging through the streets. The vibrations coming through on the Xbox controller would be stronger, because they're likely just rumbling at 100% on the old style rumble motors, similar to how just turning off haptic feedback on the Dualsense on PC makes those vibrations come through at 100% on the Dualsense.
@@OoRacket Yes you are correct, the rumbles on the Series 2 are at max setting but rumble less depending on what's happening on screen. However, when an 18 wheeler crashed and exploded while using the dualsense, it didn't vibrate the way I would expect it to. I'm also not fond of having to plug my headset into the dualsense just for this one game. I did make sure the controller was fully updated before using, I'll keep everything you said in mind and watch for updates, though! After playing Astro Bot, Ratchet and Clank, and other various shooter & racing games on PS5, the haptics/triggers for this game on PC just aren't doing it for me. As a side note I'm running an Asus ROG desktop w/11th gen i7 & RTX 3080, 32gb Ram. After last playing this specific Spider Man on PS4, many years ago, this is a whole new experience!
@@ricfnts Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this, but is there any specific reason you're feeling that you HAVE to plug the headset in just for this particular game? Forgive me if it's me assuming wrongly, but you don't need to have the audio coming from the headphone jack from the console for the haptics, just to make sure that it's enabled in the sound panel. Using any other audio output is fine, shouldn't make a different to the haptics, triggers or even the sounds of the webslinger coming from the built-in speaker on the Dualsense.
@@OoRacket hmm.. when I was testing and switched audio from the dualsense to my USB audio device, I could have sworn the triggers stopped giving me any resistance. I've about 6 hours into the game now using elite 2, but I'll give it another try when I get a chance.
Thank you so much! I got the dual sense controller just so I can have the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers on pc, and finished an entire playthrough without realizing it wasn't enabled. Just enabled it via your instructions and it's a whole different game!

How can I know if my dualsense is broken? Because haptic feedback just feels like a regular vibration. And adaptive triggers are so annoying. I don't understand why they won't let me press the button fully. I found all these features annoying and breaking immersion rather than enhancing it. So I got an idea that maybe my dualsense is broken? ..
For webslinging around, the haptic feedback does basically feel the same as turning that off in the options and going back to it, only difference is that having haptics on makes it a bit more nuanced, a bit lighter and more based on the feel of how fast you're going.
Doesn't sound like your controller is broken, but this game certainly isn't a showpiece for how well the haptics can work.
I can't remember if any of the explosions or surfaces give a different haptic feel later in the game, like how you can feel yourself walking on sand or glass as different textures on Astro's Playroom as an example, but Spider-Man is probably the least interesting for Dualsense features.
I have an odd issue, when using Dualsense (wired)+3.5 mm headphone connected to controller it blasts at full volume regardless of the level of volume set from windows sound panel. None of the other dualsense supported games has this issue. Have reinstalled windows(10 &11) but issue remains. When I use some other audio source it allows control from windows however issue is only when using Dualsense. I can use in-game volume controls to lower the master volume however lowering it decrease the sound based vibrations. Seems audio vibration & 3.5 mm audio gain is linked together for some reason and I could not find any way to fix this.
That's an interesting issue. I've never heard of anyone mention it, but I guess the people who have tried to use both in Dualsense supported games is maybe small? If I get a hold on some 3.5mm headphones in the near future, I'll give it a try for myself, as I'd love to check this out for myself. Do hope you find a way to get it sorted somehow though.
Followed all instructions controller is connected wired got adaptive working but my issue is my controller keeps disconnecting and turning off every 15 seconds
Faulty USB cable possibly? Unless the USB port is being turned off on the PC at times too. Does it only disconnect when you're using it in a game with Dualsense features?
@@OoRacket so far I noticed its pacific steam games spiderman remastered and cyberpunk2077 not sure if it has to do with dualsence features or not but my cable works fine for my elite series 2 controller
Does it work if I bought the game on the Epic Games Launcher ?
It absolutely does, less setup there as you won't have to worry about disabling Steam Input.
Though if it's not working and Steam is open, try closing Steam fully, as I know sometimes it likes to try and add an emulation layer to make controllers a mouse on desktop when not running a game on Steam.
@@OoRacket Thank you :)
my settings are exactly as yours, i can feel the adaptive triggers, but can't feel any haptic feedback, only normal rumble
If you turn haptics on and off in the game settings, does it feel stronger with haptics turned off in game? Because both sensations are very similar when flying while webslinging, just with haptics turned off, the controller is basically being rumbled at 100%, whereas with haptics turned on, it's a more nuanced feel that's designed to be magnified by how fast you're going etc.
Trigger and vibration so weak why ?
This worked, thank you!
What if you’re on epic? My haptics and adaptive triggers are really dull
Epic will work fine, with less steps without the Steam Input issue. If you turn off haptic feedback in-game, it'll just blast the haptics with 100% vibration all the time. The haptics are meant to be more subtle when just flying around and the varied levels of rumble they wanted to add.
Also make sure the Dualsense is updated to the latest firmware as well via either a PS5 or Sony's official firmware updater for PC, if it's an older Dualsense it might still be on older tweaks to haptics.
He didn’t explain how to get the controller into the sound settings in the first place
Does the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers work on HZD pc version
It does not have proper Dualsense feedback or triggers, as the game never got a proper PS5 update. If/when Forbidden West comes to PC, that should get Dualsense support.

@@OoRacket ah thanks for the info my man.
Is there supposed to be some sound from the controller? becuse there is none
There is support in there actually, and unlike Death Stranding, it actually works! I just checked now to make sure, and it 100% works.
If you go to the Audio menu in the Settings menu inside the game and then scroll down, there should be options for gamepad sound support. If you make sure that is turned on, and you can also turn the "Controller Audio Output" option to "Speakers" it 100% works for me on my wired Dualsense.
I recorded a quick video of the settings to change, along with trying to get the microphone to pick up the controller audio to show it works.

I really hope you can get it working mate.
@@OoRacket Changing it to speakers did the job! thanks man
Which is the best controller for a pc?
Does it have to be wired to work?
Does the controller work with not licensed game? I have not money to buy it right now, but I very want to play
yes it works
@@teclado3903 mine doesnt work
yes
If you mean the Dualsense features themselves, the complete list of games that support the deeper features on PC is available here:

@@OoRacket no, I am talking about spider man remastered, but not licensed version, not from steam or epic games store
The thing is right with the steam deck right you can have it Bluetooth or wireless right and haptics work the same way I assume it does right because obviously under remastered version right there's two versions as in like the vibration intensity to you right but even if I do plug-in it feels exactly the same so I have no idea exactly what I'm supposed to be feeling the only thing it doesn't work is adaptive triggers when I'm staying with her so I'm thinking maybe it doesn't work on steam deck right but it feels like it does because like how can I explain it when I plug my PS5 controller into the PS3 and I played a game right for example from playing at Fallout 3 you right with the PS5 controller I can feel the haptic feedback as in like if I have a chainsaw alright and I'm basically chainsaw in the way right at I don't know say a cinder block I can feel the difference in each like groove of the chainsaw Noreen at it's in the block the same thing if I move it straight to metal active vibration intensity changes and I tested it also with a normal PS3 controller and the vibrations don't change it's just one single node why so I'm thinking it's weird because like I don't know how I've never noticed that something obviously maybe it's something to do with the PS5 controller because I also did try with Xbox controller and yes with the experts to ensure that I had to use an adaptor to pay you to get it working right but I tried with Xbox and it plays exactly the same as a normal vibration motor so I think the PS5 works well with PS3 games in the way that they would almost work on is it original device which is the PS5 play it's not going to be exactly perfect as in like is not going to be by like I don't know what examples save your plane infamous 1 it's not like you're going now or I don't know if you're playing GTA v you don't like you're going to feel every single raindrop right you gonna feel bits and bobs every single raindrop right it's not like that but it's almost immersive va like GTA v on the PS3 using the PS5 controller yeah the haptic so great obviously there's no adaptive triggers right because you know it is a PS3 game where but the vibrations feel almost on par with what we have on the PC side when you plug it in or even no I haven't really been on the PS5 but like on the PC side yeah it feels just almost the same obviously without adaptive triggers for the PS3 so I think the technology dad to PS5 controller actually has it does change thing is the reason why even if you plug your PS5 controller into your PC and I don't know you you play music or not even play music you like you set their sounds of the game that you're playing to the controller like you change the volume to the controller output you can every it feels dukinfield have to feedback right because I think I was playing need for speed when does old need for speeds right I like a plant the PS5 controller into PC and that's not a driving about that I could feel the Malta right I could feel every time the gear shifted I could feel every time a car passed me like I can feed on my left on my right side and the felt awesome I've never felt felt that before and it's just just I can't wait until it gets to a point where we can just have a whole haptic suit and just feel everything like I know we can over give your life but obviously without the dangerous you know I mean or basically heart palpitations are literally even dying but yeah it's it's getting impressive and I'm amazed at what Sony has done that yes we all know Nintendo could do better but they've taken too long so I need one of them and that's the great thing it's only has finally invented something that Nintendo heart is going to have the copy or make better it's not the other way around anymore for example the PlayStation move
If this doesn't work for anyone, I got it working by going into big picture mode and disabling Playstation Controller Configuration in controller settings. These 3 steps didn't work for me until I disabled that option.
so what you are telling me is i need to connect it
via usb
wired
to the computer
with a wire
Don't forget the USB
Fuckin sad shit. Why Sony does this?
I will test it on Epic Games to see how well the PS5 controller responds? 🤞🤞🤞
I hate wires why won't it work on Bluetooth I get wireless hepatic but not the triggers hopefully don't will update the firmware for the controller soon
Sony get to it.
You can get the pad to vibrate wireless but not the triggers.
Now hold on........Do I need to have it usb connected?
Does it work with miles morale
Bugger, I already knew it worked wired, I'm here to find out why it doesn't wirelessly. All well and good when I'm at my desk but wanna play on the couch with the TV and ain't no cable reaching that
no way to use these features with bluetooth?!
Thank you bro!!
Thank you so much
sound from gamepad not working (
If you go to the audio settings in the game then scroll down to the gamepad settings in that menu, make sure it's enabled, and change the bottom option of "Controller Audio Output" from Auto to Speakers, it should work. I've tested it, and the audio is a lot louder coming through the speaker than even the PS5 version
I did a quick video if that helps any better in getting the audio coming through your controller:
ruclips.net/video/T1i9-1RK_Gk/видео.html
Playstation came to PC and they still haven't fixed this issue...
Still doesn’t work for me sadly
Nice!
3:29 On PC probably on Linux what I hear works wirelessy. I not have Linux installed and game bought for testing.
Any people in here has been try the dualsense on PC (Pirate games)? Is it the haptic feedback and adaptive trigger works as well?
Really appreciate for your feedback
hear me out , just say yes or no, will it work with repacks 🤫
I just come by just to see how to do it , and this man screaming in my ears ayo what.
Weird?! Is this the 90s or something
thx bro
what about ds4 windows?
It has to be fully closed
U should add that snippit lol I figured it out but just do others ask, good video I should also add after I stopped ds4 windows I didn't have to enable the duelse in the audio settings but still worked
The haptics and triggers are very weak in comparison to playing on PS5. My guess is Sony gimps them so they are superior on their console. Then again, this game wasn't designed for haptics and adaptive triggers. Maybe they will be more true to console for Miles Morales. (Edit: I just turned on my Elite Series 2, and vibrations are waaaay better & stronger on it. Not going back to Dualsense. Just to be clear: Dualsense is great on PS5 but not so for this game on PC.)
I've actually found the opposite myself over this particular game. This was also with both the launch model Dualsense, fully updated for the latest firmware, and the updated Dualsense that came out with the galaxy colours, that has the stronger possible tension on the triggers.
The game's haptics feel stronger on PC for both controllers, versus immediately switching to the PS5. Triggers felt pretty much the same, but there was a stronger PC vibration feel when flying around, webslinging through the streets.
The vibrations coming through on the Xbox controller would be stronger, because they're likely just rumbling at 100% on the old style rumble motors, similar to how just turning off haptic feedback on the Dualsense on PC makes those vibrations come through at 100% on the Dualsense.
@@OoRacket Yes you are correct, the rumbles on the Series 2 are at max setting but rumble less depending on what's happening on screen. However, when an 18 wheeler crashed and exploded while using the dualsense, it didn't vibrate the way I would expect it to. I'm also not fond of having to plug my headset into the dualsense just for this one game. I did make sure the controller was fully updated before using, I'll keep everything you said in mind and watch for updates, though! After playing Astro Bot, Ratchet and Clank, and other various shooter & racing games on PS5, the haptics/triggers for this game on PC just aren't doing it for me. As a side note I'm running an Asus ROG desktop w/11th gen i7 & RTX 3080, 32gb Ram. After last playing this specific Spider Man on PS4, many years ago, this is a whole new experience!
@@ricfnts Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this, but is there any specific reason you're feeling that you HAVE to plug the headset in just for this particular game?
Forgive me if it's me assuming wrongly, but you don't need to have the audio coming from the headphone jack from the console for the haptics, just to make sure that it's enabled in the sound panel. Using any other audio output is fine, shouldn't make a different to the haptics, triggers or even the sounds of the webslinger coming from the built-in speaker on the Dualsense.
@@OoRacket hmm.. when I was testing and switched audio from the dualsense to my USB audio device, I could have sworn the triggers stopped giving me any resistance. I've about 6 hours into the game now using elite 2, but I'll give it another try when I get a chance.
i need to use wireless , so sad
anglaise please ?
4:20?
Sony is stupid except the controller
Can the controller work wireless?
no
Thx bro
