Link or Controller?
I'm guessing you need some sort of sensor to use the ps4 controller on PC?
All you need is the 360 drivers I believe and a program called Input Mapper
Then you can connect it up with the usb charger for it or through bluetooth. Then you can map it however you want, it comes preset to work just like a normal controller
But you can use the touch pad as your mouse and shyt it's pretty cool.
Has anyone preordered and gotten theirs yet?

I didn't get a chance to order before the first batch sold out. I'll probably get one next month when it officially releases
My controller arrived today
mines not supposed to ship until next month
Brehmines not supposed to ship until next month
I keep trying to tell you Walk into any Gamestop in America, they're there. No preorder, no reserve
Drop impressions brehs. I'm curious.
tried some games. shyt's different and there's definitely a learning curve. so far I'd say it's not as good as mouse/kb for FPS aiming. it was easy to use with Divinity Original Sin though. steering in Project Cars with the pad (and not the stick) felt good too
there's a ton of options for customizing, and you can access them in-game (via the overlay). also easy access to user-created configs. gyro aiming seemed interesting. it took some getting used to, and I feel like I still need to find the proper sensitivity and such. haptics felt pretty cool. when you 'flick' the pad in trackball mode, the haptics click like a ball rolling and then slowing down. it really does help it to feel more intuitive
kinda wish you could use it outside of Big Picture Mode. but using it a little, I saw that BPM has come a long way since I last tried it
it's gonna take some getting used to, but there's definitely a lot of potential there. I'm probably gonna play through a FPS campaign to really get used to it
