I thought I knew the answer but had to hold a controller at home to make sure.
In all my years of gaming (original NES owner) I had never considered using two fingers on each hand. Never. I tried...more
Single and I use the middle and ring on the paddle buttons on the back. I did have to use the claw method when first starting Rocket League, until I switched to the Elite controller.
Because of the paddles on the back of my controller, I use those buttons with my ring fingers and then triggers with my index fingers. Only exception is smash bros. My right index finger presses the b...more
No, all my fingers have important jobs. My thumb is the button pusher, my pointers are the back trigger pusher, and the others wrap around the controller for support
index finger for trigger and bumpers.
index fingers & thumbs do all the work. the rest of the hand grips the controller harder trying to get extra speed or better accuracy during gameplay (scientifi...more
What games require R1 and R2 being pressed at the same time? I'll wait.
But I do have a Turtle Beach recon with Paddle Shifters underneath. That's pretty sweet and would make a good natural spot for...more
Single finger for bumpers and triggers.
I think the real crime here is the big 3 can’t figure out a consistent naming system for their controller layouts…
Single finger. On the switch pro controller it feels much more comfortable to put my index fingers on the back triggers (ZL/ZR), so that’s where they sit by default. They only move to L and R when I...more
There's no way I could use my middle fingers to press triggers! I've been gaming for far too long with my fingers holding controllers in a certain way to change now!
Not only would it be far too awk...more
With the new game I'm playing, @tails-of-iron , I thought it would be handy if I could make use of all four buttons at the same time so I tried a grip that got my middle fingers on the bottom triggers...more
I've tried doing the two finger grab nlbut besides being uncomfortable, my middle finger doesn't have the same feedback and dexterity control of my pointer.
I use Y to accelerate in Mario Kart because it is more comfortable. There is no way I'm contorting my hands to have a separate finger for each button. You think @rey 's thumb looked painful...
