Xbox One DD Original Sin: PC to Console Controls?

Jerjoe · Dec 1, 2015

I'm enjoying the game very much, but one thing bothers me, and I can't find anything close to an answer anywhere. How do I use Source Hunter Backpack already in my inventory to put things in it? I'm using the XOne controller, so there's no PC double-click,
I can't send things there, I can't drag anything there or anywhere else, so just how do you use it? No online manual or 'guide' even mentions it, and all searches lead to PC results. Frankly, this is the biggest problem with this game, trying to figure things
out with nothing resembling a good manual for the consoles anywhere to be seen or accessed. Many of the controller controls for inventory and hot bar management are cumbersome and slow, but at least they work. So what the hell with my backpacks? They're
just all empty...

"Hold" the item, then drop it into the pack. Now how hard would it have been to put such details somewhere? It's only a $500 system and a $60 game, after all...

There is no Bluetooth radio component in the Xbox One S console itself.

The controllers connect to the Xbox One S the same way the controllers connect to the original Xbox One: proprietary RF. You could technically connect an Xbox One S controller to an original Xbox One, and an original Xbox controller to the Xbox One S.

The Bluetooth functionality in the new Xbox One S controller is specifically made for connecting the controller to a Windows 10 PC with the "Anniversary" update, which has the drivers needed for the controller when connected via Bluetooth.

That's why retail stores still exist for console games. Digital distribution (DD) hasn't been done properly yet. People like to think PC games disappeared from retail stores because PC gaming was becoming a niche, rare thing, and there was no demand.

On the contrary. The demand is huge and PC gaming is thriving. But there is no demand for retail from consumers because DD is being done close to properly. Publishers eventually accepted the change and altered their approach to the market. But PC clients
like Steam and Origin, and alternatives like gog still need improvement...

... and if they still need improvement, it only highlights how far behind DD on consoles is, and how slowly it's moving. Publishers are loathe to give up the arbitrarily decided price-points of $60 and the like, regardless of the delivery system, and consumers
of console digital aren't voting with their wallets and making a distinction between physical and digital worth.

Things can only get better. But console DD consumers should look to clients like Steam for a glimpse of console DD's brighter future. While Steam users can look forward to more mishaps, errors, and poor decisions as PC DD forges the path. lol

As to prices by region. People should compare things like minimum wage, with direct conversions across currencies. The feeling of being robbed should wane somewhat, I think. =)

Wasteland 2 and Divinity Original Sin are NOT Real Time Strategy games. They are Turn Based RPG's.

Real Time Strategy games are, Halo Wars, Command & Conquer, Supreme Commander and R.U.S.E. and IMO they control horribly with controllers on Xbox. Just stick to PC for RTS games. AI War: Fleet Command is my favorite RTS game of all time. I have 400+ hours
on Steam.
