When you say fingers I'm assuming your excluding your thumbs and index fingers? So you would actually use your other digits while maintaining your thumbs in the normal position? I'd love to see that, that couldn't possibly look comfortable. Your friends don't complain about it, but my friend who I borrowed the ps4 from has already told me he misses the xbox controller.
Yes, I do use the options button more. Outside of the first party titles, none of the games I have played have required me to use the touchpad. And as I mentioned, it is used for pausing games and other media. Part of my issue with its position is muscle memory. Start buttons have almost always been in the same general area since the NES days. I can get used to change but only when that change is in service of something worthwhile. The touchpad has not proven its worth and unlike sixaxis it is also permanently hindering the design of the controller.
But if people don't have a keyboard and mouse then how they are still playing a gimped version. You could take away the touchpad inputs and use only a regular controller and it would still be gimped. Are you arguing levels of gimped? And no I don't care that I'm losing inputs with the 360 controller because those inputs have not been used in a compelling way and any adapter will have ways to map that functionality in some other way. Most games aren't going to use it extensively so its not a big deal.
If you love your ds4 controller that is fine, but your dead wrong if you think that I'm not dead serious about wanting to use an xbox controller on the ps4. I paid a mint for the privelege on ps3 and I'd be willing to do the same for ps4. The fact that it is not an option is literally the only reason I haven't bought the console yet. I don't care about bashing the ds4, some of you have a serious persecution complex.

its actually very simple to change which fingers your using for what depending on what your playing and what you want to do. its been out 9 months and this hasnt been an issue, yet now you pop up and all your friends have issues, and you seem to be completely incapable of teaching yourself new muscle movements. i even said at first you will go to where it used to be, but in no time your reaching to where it is, and should have no probem hitting it and telling the difference between it and the touchpad.
the game was designed and released on the ps4, with a controller layout that gives ou everything you need. and gave you options for if you want even more controls. what you want to do is use something that is gimped from its design. you say the ds4 would be gimped, but it isnt, because it is designed for it. they made the game to work on a ds4, and they included options for those more hardcore.
you cant use a ds3 on the ps4, so in what crazy world would they let you use a 360 controller when it has he same amount of player input options. there is a reason new 3rd party controllers have to come out, they need to match specifications so they they arent gimped in comparison. they can have extra buttoms, and all kinds of bells and whistles, but at the end of the day they need a base amount, and thats what the ds4 has.
You failed with your click bait DRM talk that made you look bad, then you tried to fight about being right when you were oh so terribly wrong, took you forever to change the title, and when you did its still pretty much click bait. a decent thread title could have been "3rd party controller compatibility" . you are trying to get all this attention and people to listen to how you dont like the ds4 and want to use a 360, youve come up with crazy complaints and terrible reasons for why you think its uses havent been compelling, meanwhile you dont even own the system. youve mentioned you havent played the majority of the games we have brought up that make good use of it, and all you have done is mention infamous, when you could ahve used BF4, as they dont use it at all really.
if you dont like the ds4, wait until a 3rd party controller comes out, like those already in production.
now im done replying to you, because no one else is really saying anything because of how out to lunch your DRM talk was, and me calling you out keeps bumping this thread up and it deserves to just die globally in the US.
