In the meantime, Steam Deck engineer Pierre-Loup Griffais recommended that people sign up for Valve\u2019s reservation system sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cThe line\u2019s not getting any shorter,\u201d Griffais said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Valve announced the Steam Deck last year, at which point tech and video game enthusiasts were already well aware of tech supply chain issues born of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/graphics\/2021-semiconductors-chips-shortage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">covid<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.economist.com\/graphic-detail\/2021\/06\/19\/crypto-miners-are-probably-to-blame-for-the-graphics-chip-shortage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">crypto<\/a>. These circumstances were not enough to convince Valve to delay the Steam Deck to a potentially less-volatile time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<div class=\"cb db dn-ns\" data-qa=\"article-body-ad\">\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"hide-for-print relative flex justify-center content-box items-center b bh mb-md mt-sm pt-sm pb-sm\" style=\"min-height:250px;border-top-color:transparent;border-bottom-color:\">\n<div class=\"center absolute w-100 border-box\" style=\"top:-9px\" data-sc-v=\"6.5.3\" data-sc-c=\"adslot\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cWe would never have been able to predict what supply chain or any other kind of logistical issues would look like in the future,\u201d said Shaw. \u201cSo even if we had decided to postpone, I don\u2019t think we would have had confidence to say, \u2018Well, in 2023 this is what silicone\u2019s going to look like,&#8217; or &#8216;This is what shipping is going to look like.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Griffais added that he approximates that \u201ctens of thousands\u201d of users are receiving Decks right now, and \u201cit\u2019s gonna be in the hundred-thousands soon after that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cWe\u2019re still pretty happy to be able to deliver that experience to that set of users, even if the number is not as high as we\u2019d hoped initially,\u201d Griffais said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<div class=\"cb db dn-ns\" data-qa=\"article-body-ad\">\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"hide-for-print relative flex justify-center content-box items-center b bh mb-md mt-sm pt-sm pb-sm\" style=\"min-height:250px;border-top-color:transparent;border-bottom-color:\">\n<div class=\"center absolute w-100 border-box\" style=\"top:-9px\" data-sc-v=\"6.5.3\" data-sc-c=\"adslot\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">That experience, however, remains in flux. In many ways, the Deck is a peerless piece of hardware, but it falls short where battery life and game compatibility are concerned. The former, especially, was a focus for Valve, with the company working alongside partners like AMD to create efficient components that would offset the need for a big, heavy battery. Still, it ended up with something of a trade-off; on default settings, demanding Triple-A games like \u201cGod of War\u201d or the newly released \u201cElden Ring\u201d sap the Deck of its electronic lifeblood after around 90 minutes. Valve hopes to improve that through operating system and graphics driver optimizations, as well as additional performance options that will let users tweak their in-game experiences to cut down on battery drain. Immense improvement is unlikely, however.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cI would say that in terms of the core battery life \u2014 the hours you\u2019re getting running a highly intensive game like \u2018God of War\u2019 \u2014 I don\u2019t expect things to change drastically there,\u201d said Griffais.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">In the event that a battery totally dies, Valve has partnered with consumer electronics site iFixit to offer replacement parts. This is particularly relevant to those concerned about so-called joystick \u201cdrift,\u201d a problem familiar to Nintendo Switch owners: when \u201cdrift\u201d occurs, joysticks register phantom commands even when nobody is physically interacting with them. To avoid it, Griffais said Valve ordered \u201cstate of the art\u201d thumbstick parts that are more common in standard controllers than handhelds. However, some early adopters <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Wario64\/status\/1498688819335348224\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">have already reported<\/a> drift on their machines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<div class=\"cb db dn-ns\" data-qa=\"article-body-ad\">\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"hide-for-print relative flex justify-center content-box items-center b bh mb-md mt-sm pt-sm pb-sm\" style=\"min-height:250px;border-top-color:transparent;border-bottom-color:\">\n<div class=\"center absolute w-100 border-box\" style=\"top:-9px\" data-sc-v=\"6.5.3\" data-sc-c=\"adslot\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Before these reports came out, Griffais noted that Steam Deck thumbsticks are stand-alone modules as opposed to being attached to a larger board, making them relatively easy to replace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cWe hope that customers don\u2019t need to replace anything. We hope this lasts as long as they ever want it to,\u201d said Shaw. \u201cBut if they do [need to replace something], then it\u2019s not terribly difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Valve does, however, anticipate changes to other elements of the Deck\u2019s feature set based on how users interact with the device. For example, Steam Deck verification \u2014 a system whereby Valve evaluates games in Steam\u2019s gargantuan 50,000-game library for compatibility \u2014 currently does not take online requirements into account, meaning that games like \u201cHitman 3\u201d which are listed as fully playable by that system can be rendered unplayable by a bad or missing Internet connection. That, said Griffais, could change if \u201cwe get a bunch of feedback saying, \u2018We want more guidance so that we can play on a road trip or whatever.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<div class=\"cb db dn-ns\" data-qa=\"article-body-ad\">\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"hide-for-print relative flex justify-center content-box items-center b bh mb-md mt-sm pt-sm pb-sm\" style=\"min-height:250px;border-top-color:transparent;border-bottom-color:\">\n<div class=\"center absolute w-100 border-box\" style=\"top:-9px\" data-sc-v=\"6.5.3\" data-sc-c=\"adslot\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">In general, Deck verification has expanded into a sizable operation for Valve, with Griffais saying that more than 20 employees are currently spelunking Steam\u2019s labyrinthine library. The magnitude of that effort, he added, now outstrips \u201ceven the normal content review activities\u201d that games must go through to get onto Steam.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cI feel like we have a little time there before we\u2019re able to get to the majority of the catalogue,\u201d said Shaw, \u201cbut you know, we\u2019ll go as fast as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Valve is also actively working to improve compatibility with competitive multiplayer games that employ anti-cheat software; at launch, live-service hits like \u201cApex Legends\u201d booted players out when trying to load matches on the Deck, but Valve does not see that remaining a problem indefinitely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<div class=\"cb db dn-ns\" data-qa=\"article-body-ad\">\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"hide-for-print relative flex justify-center content-box items-center b bh mb-md mt-sm pt-sm pb-sm\" style=\"min-height:250px;border-top-color:transparent;border-bottom-color:\">\n<div class=\"center absolute w-100 border-box\" style=\"top:-9px\" data-sc-v=\"6.5.3\" data-sc-c=\"adslot\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cThere\u2019s still tons of work to be done there,\u201d said Griffais. \u201cWe\u2019re in touch with all the developers and partners. We want to make sure that it\u2019s a great platform for their game without them being uncomfortable with security or anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Griffais and Shaw admitted that even arriving at this point took an incredible amount of effort. But they also believe this sets up future Valve hardware \u2014 whether it\u2019s a new iteration of the Deck or something else entirely \u2014 for significantly more polished success.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cOne of the areas we were not willing to cut at all was on the quality of the components,\u201d said Shaw. \u201cSo once the price is set and the quality bar is set, if there\u2019s a gap between those, that\u2019s the painful part.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">\u201cI can\u2019t think of anything in there that wasn\u2019t a significant challenge,\u201d said Griffais. \u201cTurns out, hardware is pretty complicated. But we\u2019ve been learning a ton, and we\u2019ll be that much better positioned to do the next thing as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><iframe data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fiverr.com\/gig_widgets?id=U2FsdGVkX18x7XQvttUTrv1oEqmGNGTgvvCUiUoJ\/AP4z\/UyMz8lXGOLpu15jIMxBbTR0gmD5uBoFvhC4KWeALQRp3h\/X\/AwcVD0K8Wj9H\/ZzYKzcCNHosB9oS4SCJJFWiN85P9ICAc4OgCoE\/wHKIY7CDkf2\/DQ1vqGvk4smVe5cRDEmrLPCWi4FC8p40VUhSmWQ5udCm0zoJtorgWv3vbDQw0kKYkwn39ozAnQXDe+YvWMxkLFWA+O3TFwkJvdkIK+\/AUSnRssPKt5WHY0FhNOxnSPcLslEL4G4\/RfP95ve99U+kRnDy3X+KtzdQLY+u935ghON\/o3UE4IMv9oN6JX9RnxzL\/LRcOgnHigxStSGPKsZYtnz8RWNVT\/rOLAibqiWJadC5MYHRbekF3eg6FOGrQGkXYbsn0+a5aovnlLCbLwIqY9fcS17UX8J235iQ6cdmHNbrPeS84CMm34RA==&affiliate_id=1052423&strip_google_tagmanager=true\" loading=\"lazy\" data-with-title=\"true\" class=\"fiverr_nga_frame\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"350\" width=\"100%\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-mode=\"random_gigs\" onload=\" var frame = this; var script = document.createElement('script'); script.addEventListener('load', function() { window.FW_SDK.register(frame); }); script.setAttribute('src', 'https:\/\/www.fiverr.com\/gig_widgets\/sdk'); document.body.appendChild(script); \" ><\/iframe>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/video-games\/2022\/03\/01\/steam-deck-buy-battery-life-joystick-drift\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=referral&#038;utm_campaign=wp_business-technology\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe\u2019re just gonna keep ramping up production,\u201d Steam Deck designer Jay Shaw told The Post. \u201cUnfortunately, we don\u2019t have any numbers to share.
