Hello, everyone!
I've been wondering, if L2/R2 is the default for airbrakes, how many of you have been switching back to L1/R1?
Also, what about the airbrake sensitivity? Are you finetuning it?
Cheers!
I switched to L1/R1
Using the default L2/R2
Hello, everyone!

Brake sensitivity 70%, but I might change that, as I'm finding the PS4 controller less responsive than the PS3 one for some reason....neither of my PS4 controllers have been thrashed, so I can only put it down to a design difference.
On a side note, if you drop your air brake sensitivity really low, it can make it problematic in successfully doing side shifts......... so test for a cut off point if adjusting air brakes.
Traditionally the R1L1 button are digital and the R2L2 analoug, so in theory at least, the R2L2 'Should' give finer control.......I suggest people test and find out for themselves.
I, and a lot of other old school Wipeout players only use the R1L1 buttons because that is what we learned on back in the PSone days, where it was the only option, plus I still use the D-Pad.

I always use L1/R1, since 2097.
I still keep airbrakes on L2/R2, because I've switched left/right with L1/R1 (in PS4 Accessibility settings). You know, for blazing fast barrel rolls.
Ive switched back to L1/R1 and dpad in year 2097
R2 L2 here, and i use dpad too, sticks 2 hard
I found Zone mode unplayable with L1/R1 as airbrakes so stuck to the default. In the PS1 games and BallisticNG you have a lot of control by pushing airbrakes for short periods of time but here if you push the button all the way down (seems hard to control on ps4 pad) it does almost an immediate 30 degree turn which is a bit much. If there was some way to do slighter turns with L1/R1 I'd switch back, I liked how they worked in the older games.
Been using R2/L2 at 100% sensitivity since 2009, with the analogue stick
I switched it to L1/R1 off the rip.
I used to use L1/R1 on HD/Fury, but on Omega I've kept it on L2/R2 and just dropped the sensitivity to 80%. I found the triggers on the DS4 to be easy to keep a grip on and in most cases I'm only after a light tap to get the tail of the craft to turn in. I'm finding it far easier to prevent myself accidentally sideshifting too.
Wow, 13 - 13 so far! Interesting. I'll try fine tuning L2/R2 and see what I get out of it...
Actually L2/R2 on 80% seems nice!
I've stuck with L2/R2. I have to go with what's most comfortable for longer periods of time these days and having my fingers further back leaves my thumbs less constricted.
I'm so relieved that the face buttons are no longer analogue. That's a massive quality of life improvement for me, they were hard to keep held down hard enough.
Bumpers with 100% sensitivity, keeping it old school
I'm curious about the L2/R2 with 80% sensitivity scheme, might try that one.
Hellfire taught me to use R1 and L1 and yeah, I think they're much more comfortable and reliable than triggers
Triggers.
I use R1/L1 as Fire/Absorb.
I switched to L1/R1 in Omega, because double tapping triggers (sideshifting) is not convenient for me.
I wish there were a way to bind airbrakes to both L1/L2 and R1/R2 !
Anyway, I think I used the same setup in HD/Fury and probably before that.
I would add that barrel rolls and pitch adjustments are difficult for me due to the d-pad (I haven't bothered to try analog).
By far, my favourite device for playing was an arcade stick (=> no analog), unfortunately, I don't have an adapter for PS4 yet.

How do you use R1 and L1 for barrel rolls? Do you remap the dpad to L1 and R1? But still use the analog stick for steering?
