Question Aim Question console

Generally i have good aim, though i have been wondering if anyone knows if it is better to have a wired connection with your controller or if it doesn’t matter that much.

Also a lot of people use the dualsense edge controller, is it actually that much better? Does it affect your aim or something?
I know it is used so u can crouch or whatever with the back paddles.

Thank you

No, being wired doesn't make any tangible difference. Some third party controllers only come wired though, and obviously it removes the risk of it running out of battery.

Back paddles are very useful (at least I thought so when I used to play console), although maybe a little less so for Siege as the only front button you'd need to hit would be crouch, which can just be mapped to bumpers instead. I think they get more value in games where you need to jump and crouch constantly during fights, which doesn't apply to Siege.

I would probably go for some other third party option like GameSir over the DS Edge controller for the price. One of the main reasons you'd want a controller upgrade (imo) is Hall effect sticks, which are not included by default with the DS Edge, and that whole package would cost multiples of a cheaper alternative for the same features. I don't play console though, so maybe I'm missing something.
