Honestly, playing CS:GO with a PS4 controller might sound like a daunting task, but it's totally doable! First, you'll want to connect your PS4 controller to your PC using a USB cable or through Bluetooth. Once connected, Steam should recognize it automatically. Now, head over to Steam's 'Big Picture Mode' which is super controller-friendly. From there, launch CS:GO and dive into the controller settings to tweak them to your liking. Keep in mind, it might take a bit to get used to the controls, especially aiming, but don't give up! With practice, you'll get the hang of it.

If you're thinking of using a PS4 controller for CS:GO, here's my hot take: just don't. CS:GO is super competitive, and the precision you get with a keyboard and mouse is unmatched. Playing with a controller puts you at a massive disadvantage. Stick to the traditional ways for a game like CS:GO, trust me.

Been there, done that! Playing CS:GO with a PS4 controller is my weekend hobby. Here's a pro tip: customize your button mapping to find what works best for you. Aim assist doesn't exist in CS:GO, so you'll want to tweak sensitivity settings for better control. And, always be ready to switch back to the keyboard and mouse for tasks that need extra precision.
