Discussion Steam support is incredible

A few days ago, I realized that some of the controllers marked to ship out starting 2027 had been getting earlier purchase windows, but I'd missed it because I don't usually check the email I use for steam (except for things like that). I asked about it, and was shunted right back to the front and able to purchase it within an hour, getting it on Wednesday.

Steam Controller (2026) FINALLY ordered a controller...

3 Upvotes

ETA: SOLVED, thank you all!

....BUT I am giving it as a gift to my fiance. Due to account restrictions I know I can only order one. I was wondering if there is a way to change the account it is under after it arrives? If not, no biggy, I'll order under his some other day, but was kinda hoping there would be. I can't find anything on the support site pertaining to this.

Discussion Game project

I have been working on a prototype game fully utilizing all the Steam Controller (2026) inputs. I am at the point where I have 100% confidence the idea is feasible, and I have lots of ideas.

I have to wonder though, how many people would play a game that requires a Steam Controller? There is a lot that can be done with it, but I am thinking it should also be playable on mouse and keyboard, and maybe other controllers too.

Without a doubt, the more people that can play it, the more people will. But I also think that the more accessible it is, the less unique/enjoyable it may become.

Received email Friday after five pm local, ordered within 10 minutes.
Arrived Monday morning while tracking said Tuesday!
Gotten to try it out yesterday afternoon and have to say I’m in love! It’s very comfy to hold, not heavy, nice and responsive to inputs.
Now looking for a storage/travel case that allows charging in the case with the puck (similar to Xbox elite). Attached is the complementary picture of box. Can’t wait to be done working today.

Will valve sell pucks separately? I have my puck placed beside my computer on the desk but would like an extra one to keep on my bedside table so I can alternate charging locations whether im at the desk or im in bed using my projector hooked up to my computer.

Discussion Anybody else's controller have bad centering?

• Upvotes

I just got my steam controller in, pretty happy with how fast it got here and etc however the default deadzone is just barely enough to stop the right stick from drifting upwards, if I put a literal feather weight of pressure on it, it immediately works to push upwards, which okay I'd expect from TMR sticks however it takes 5x as much pressure to move the stick in any other direction, so there's a centering bias straight out of the box.

Totally usable but there's seemingly no way to calibrate the stick centering and improve circularity, only increase the deadzone which yes will make the issue less pronounced but doesn't inherently improve the circularity.

Is this a common thing? I've not really bought a new controller in like 8 years 😂

Configuration Configure the trackpad to the best

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone if this conversation already exists I apologize but I wanted to know if you have guides or suggestions on how to configure the trackpad in the best way even on action games. I saw videos of people who optimized it for the classic weapon or skill wheel but I couldn’t replicate it. Does anyone know how to do it? Or even other suggestions?

How do you use trackpads?
