    Great video! I just recently learned that Paladins implemented gyro aiming on their PS4 version. I tried it out, and while it is kind of bare bones and doesn't feel as good as setting up gyro controls on PC, through steam for example, it is still much better than just a joystick. Glad some devs are picking up on gyro aiming.

      Thank you! Yeah, it's awesome that Paladins has gyro on PS4. It's the only cross-platform game I've seen that's added gyro controls on every platform that has gyro. It even works with a DS4 on PC, so I want to do a Gyro Analysis of Paladins at some point.
      Like you said, it's not the best, but it's great to see!

    Gyro aiming pretty much removes the right stick and it kinda pisses me off that people still think gyro = motion controllers when it's not even close.
    thank you for the video.

      Hey, although I really like his idea I still do not think it removes the second stick's usefulness, especially in this specific genre.
      Using the second stick allows me to concentrate on my movement more and the general direction I shoot at, instead of what I shoot at. I found playing Enter the Gungeon with mouse and keyboard to be a worse experience and although having a stick for movement would be an improvement, I do not feel it will beat two sticks for this particular case.
      All in all I find the fact that stick gives you much more comprehensible feedback on its alignment than the mouse/gyro would suits my style of play much better. This says nothing about the control methods by themselves, my point is that you should not make grandious statements like that. Gyro aiming removes nothing. The stick is there for a reason (or a bunch of reasons honestly). Gyro is just another tool we need to use to better our gaming experince, it does not have to substitute anything else.

    • @JibbSmartGD
      @JibbSmartGD  4 года назад +3

      You're right that they each have their usefulness, and playing with them together is great. For games like Enter the Gungeon, the stick isn't very precise. But they make up for it by having the game do some of the aiming for you, and there's nothing wrong with that. And you make a good point about the stick letting you be aware of the direction you're aiming without having to watch the cursor -- that's handy in a game like this.

      @@JibbSmartGD Exactly. To be honest I feel mouse/gyro has aim assist too - namely the cursor. I know we rarely think of it as that but that is what it is really.
      I thought of that reference because I happened to play CrossCode before Enter the Gungeon. In CrossCode you have a tiny line aim for the stick and it immensely improved my precision, like in absolutely no need for aim assist in the end. I thought of it as an equivalent to the cursor.
      That ties to my second point - visualizing > direct assist.

    I think more developers need to watch your channel. You do have some innovative ideas and your channel has a lot of fantastic ideas. I do also believe that these are also options to have. So if people say that they can't play with your control schemes, then the developers can say, "Then just switch to a different control scheme. You don't have to use this one."

    This isn’t a comment or concern, but I think you should try Gyro on halo reach PC. Bringing gyro into the argument might change some minds at the moment seeing as how there is currently a debate going on about Controller vs. Mouse and Keyboard. I think if you were to try and introduce gyro controls to the new halo pc community gyro may gain some notoriety.

    Three problem with the always on gyro control scheme is how the cursor keeps getting de-synced. If there was a button too recentre the cursor it would work wonders

    • @JibbSmartGD
      @JibbSmartGD  4 года назад +6

      Yeah, that's true. I prefer having a button to disable the gyro rather than a button to recentre, but recentre as an option makes sense in a game like this.

      @@JibbSmartGD How do you feel about steam's implementation of gyro controls? Do you think they are on par with console or JSM?

    • @JibbSmartGD
      @JibbSmartGD  4 года назад +6

      Steam's implementation is much better than I've seen in any console game implementation (though I haven't played them all). I originally started writing JSM to do it so I could explore why Steam gyro aim felt so much better than, say, Splatoon 2, for example, and at its core I think JSM and Steam probably work the same as each other.
      But JSM has some better options than Steam. As far as I can tell, its smoothing is smarter (if you want smoothing at all), and its acceleration/ramping settings are much better than Steam's last I checked. Steam can do a few things JSM can't yet, like changing gyro sensitivity on a button press. Eventually, both programs will have each other's features, I hope.

    • @JibbSmartGD
      @JibbSmartGD  3 года назад +1

      I think a big thing is that most third party games run at 30 fps while Splatoon 2 runs at 60. And while Splatoon 2's gyro aiming has its quirks, it's at least part of the core game design.

    I wonder if the single Joycon controls would work better if you held it vertically, in one hand. Though I haven't played this game much, so I don't know if that would give you access to enough buttons.

    • @JibbSmartGD
      @JibbSmartGD  4 года назад

      I was wondering about this, too, and considered exploring it, but didn't have the time. The button access is a good question, but I think you could get by using R and ZR for shoot and dodge, stick click for blanks?

    Hello. I have interesting question for you. Recently got a new DS4 v2 and immediately started using gyro for aiming. But after couple hours of playing i noticed that gyro became strange. So if im slowly dragging mouse cursor in desktop mode or sights in game then in some moment of dragging it starts pulling cursor back. I made a move and it almost rerurned cursor in the same position it was before move. Its kinda "gyro drifting", but not completely for itself, just after my move of the controller. So i recalibrated gyro in steam and it does not helped. I reboted my pc, pressed "reset" on the back of the controller, recalibrated it one more time and it helped for 15 minutes and then problem is back and works now with almost all of my movements. So what is it? Did you have such a problem? Should i return my DS4 in store or its just software problem?

    • @JibbSmartGD
      @JibbSmartGD  4 года назад +1

      I hope that's not a problem with the controller! The gyro feeling like it's trying to return to its old position when you move it -- sounds like you might have accidentally had "continuous calibration" active? That just means it's constantly using the average rotational velocity of the gyro to calibrate it, assuming that over time the average will be about zero. When it's first activated, though, your movements have an immediate effect on calibration.
      This can happen when you tap the PS button or the touchpad (click) -- those are mapped to calibration by default. Maybe you've been doing this by accident?
      You can avoid this by mapping those inputs to something else, or to NONE if you don't want them to do anything.
      If that doesn't fix it, we'll have up figure something else out.

      @@JibbSmartGD As someone who bought a PS3 earlier this year, I can tell you that Steam Input doesn't support the controller's gyro, and Linux's built-in driver doesn't seem to either, as it doesn't show up in the joystick/gamepad config panel. So there must be some weird incompatibility between first-generation Sixaxis gyros and PCs. Either that or just nobody's figured out to poll it.
