Dst Console Suggestion

[DoctorSleepsZzZ]

Okay, here's how it would work: when you press in the right stick, it'll bring up an options "wheel" and display different ranges such as short-range, mid-range, medium-range, far-range, very-far-range, and free-range, and this feature can work for anything that's within a set range that is displayed, including characters, so here's an example for free-range. Alright so wortox is no longer stuck at a fixed range when teleporting, by selecting free-range, you're able to select the range that you want to teleport to, and this goes for anything else that is exactly like wortox's soul hop.

Feel free to add to this and refine the concept as much as possible any ideas will be useful including disagreements on certain parts of the topic, all feedback is wanted and also feel free to share some of these ideas or add what you want as long as it betters the console experience when it comes to this specific topic which is to hopefully one day improve teleporting on console and also spell casting aswell on console eventually when the maxwell rework/patch is finally out also to improve any potential future characters or items that utilize things similar to this on console, btw I'm kinda new if it was already a thread based on this then I'll put my ideas there, I'm still learning how some of this stuff works not exactly new since I've been playing since 2016 and knew about the forums just never really used them on my old account lol.

Hello, I'm interested in your findings but have trouble following. Mind adding these in?

Punctuation and paragraphs are fairly important to communicate points.

I think you mean gesture wheels and such but pc doesn't really need them, and when they do they can simply get mods for it.

The only moment where I was pissed of that fixed range was against the fuelweaver, in the bone cage, and using the lazy explorer too far from the minions.

But this wheel idea could be such a pain to use in fight. We don't have time enough. Or would it work ? I don't know.

So I already talked about it: More buttons on the controller, and we could have two active buttons for + and -, far or close, like instant, or almost, maybe better than a wheel ?

It will never happen, so the system should have to be very fast. Bone cage>>>>choosing 2 or 8 meters>>>bam, 4 minions killed.

The best way would be to control it. Maybe not a wheel but a way to activate this power and use the right joystick to control the distance.

Maxwell's spell casting is dual stick meaning you can move and aim your spell.

I hope this also gets integrated into all other tools that can be aimed. Along with moving while sorting inventory or in the emote wheel.

Dst has been long overdue for controller tweaks to smooth out the experience but not too many people have been vocal about it.

No. We console players love our wortox and lazy explorer nerf, making them nearly useless.

The scary part is that Klei has said in the past that their pipeline dream for the DS franchise is for it to have cross-platform function between platforms, which means: Anyone not playing on PC is going to struggle due to the differences between the two.

I felt like the easiest way to fix this would to add a virtual on screen mouse we can toggle/hide.. 
 

I’m currently playing a Wickerbottom world and it aggravates the heck out of me that using “On Tentacles” is a randomized gamble of if your gonna get absolutely spanked by your own summon.

I hope with Maxwell being able to freely move around and cast Shadow Prison, that they will give Wicker the same love and let me Aim/Cast the stupid tentacle spell so I don’t.. you know nearly die summoning them. -_-

Tbh casting wickers books like Maxwell sounds pretty great especially for on tentacles.
