Comment on Microsoft made me sign in on their Xbox Accessories app to update the firmware on my controller
Jackthelad@lemmy.world 2 years agoWell, in the case of the Dualsense on PS5, they’ve made changes to improve things like haptic feedback, controller volume output from the speaker, better noise cancellation on the mic (though I doubt anyone uses that) and if you have the latest PS5 models (pro or non-pro), you now have adaptive charging.

I wish I had a way to permanently disable that mic. Why the fuck is that even there? Do console players use these?! All it does is yank priority from my actual mic if I plug it in to charge.

You can disable it permanently: thegamer.com/disable-mute-ps5-dualsense-microphon…

Looks like that works on PS5, not so sure about PC. I will investigate when I get home, thanks for the tip!

Almost every game that uses the speaker is even more annoying.

The exceptions being the Astro Bot games, because the sounds tie in to the haptic feedback.

Sony does hardware features well pretty much across the board. It completely changes the experience without dominating it.
Third parties seem to either halfass it or ignore it.
