NOOOOOOOOOOOO. I hate using the trigger to shoot on the 360. Just let me use R1 and L1 god damn it.

Sony ought to incorporate a button swap option directly into the OS since devs are so fucking incompetent when it comes to control schemes.

I don't see how they CAN'T do this
Agreed. I hope they have alternate layouts. Just give us a choice.

Wat, how is that possible?! 360 controller is perfect for shooters, I really dislike Dualshock 3 personally.
Not criticising you just surprised!
I hate the 360 controller and I am baffled by this

if they can get rumble to work right this is a good thing. It mimics pulling/squeezing the trigger on a firearm, and introduces some timing and learning curve issues.

fuck and THIS is the reason why I want TLOU on ps4 lol.
Running with holding down L2 is so uncomfortable.

I really hope the PS4 controller's triggers are up to par and they aren't forcing us to use shitty buttons like what happened with some PS3 games.

Such good news!! This was one of the best things about the 360 controller. Just feel so good to have your fingers on something the feels like a trigger.

This is something I'll have to get used to next gen.
I guess so... :-/
I'm not saying one is better than the other, its just a matter of not being used to it.

I love how many people here are freaking out about this. Have you all held a DS4? We don't even know how our hands will fall on the thing yet. L1/R1 were the natural resting place on DS1-3, but the handles look drastically different this time around. We may get the same feeling with L2/R2 on the PS4!
I'm all for the option to have either/or as a solution, but the angry comments are a bit early, dontchya think?

Pulling triggers is much more immersive. I can't fathom how you guys think those R1/L1 buttons on PS3 is fun to shoot with.
That's the Xbone. I don't think the DS4 has rumble triggers?
seriously, what kind of generation are we at where fully customizable controls STILL aren't a standard on consoles
The 360 controller is absolutely not "perfect for shooters". Being able to quickly use secondary functions on L2/R2 with my middle fingers is fantastic, something not really possible with the Xbox controller without holding it in a supremely uncomfortable way.

Exactly. I don't understand why devs omit this option so often. Just give us the choice. It frustrates me to no end on the PS3. Yes, the standard trigger on the PS3 is not great, but once you slap a set of Real Triggers on it, it's much better, yet I still can't use the triggers to shoot in many games, because the devs won't enable button switching.
Lol. Feels like a real gun?? Lmao
Always utterly stunned by the amount of games that don't allow customisable controls.
Because I don't consider it immersive at all. I like the response of just hitting L1 or R1. I don't like using the triggers on 360 to shoot either.
I never understood why I dont have the option to map a controller how I see fit. Seems like an easy solution.
This please.
Even if they are a huge improvement over the ds3 ones, I have used l1/r1 for 2 gens now, and I love them.
I don't have a problem with this myself, but remappable controls would still be a nice option to have.
It's already confirmed for Destiny and Killzone: Shadow Fall.
