MODERATORS
The deck does have a vibration motor. Do you mean to rig up a more powerful one?
Yes that's right. The default ones are extremely weak!
Roy, is that you...?
God damn these electric sex pants!
Yeah because they're just using the haptics meant to provide feedback when you use the touchpads.
Even though they use the same haptic motors, they do technically have the ability to be way stronger than they actually are while rumbling. Like when you first turn the device on and it vibrates, that is definitely more intense than it ever rumbles during gameplay.
I don't think I've ever even noticed it rumble during the gameplay I just assumed it was the fan speeding up lol.
It's not a deal breaker for me it stronger haptics would be nicem
They can be stronger but then they start making audible noises. The original steam controller had stronger haptics and it sounded super loud.
You can increase the vibration intensity in the steam deck settings. Have you maxed it out?
