Is it necessary to bump these posts? This is still a pretty game-breaking issue and I just want to make sure it is acknowledged since I really just haven't been able to play since it began. Thanks!
Generally PS4 Controllers are designed to eventually stop working properly.
You can try using the Reset Button on the pack of the controller. (Note, you need it synced to the PS4 Console and the console turned on for a proper Reset. The controller should turn itself off when pressing the button.)
The other thing may be dirt underneath the thumb pads. Something as small as a hair can cause the X and Y sensors to go berserk, which can effect everything related to the thumb pads.
I've only ran into this issue with older remotes that I haven't cleaned out yet or reset, so I'm fairly positive it's a hardware issue.
I have this exact same issue on pc using a brand new Razer wolverine controller. No the controller isn’t broken because it works fine on console. It’s just a sensitivity problem I get on pc. It happens constantly during games
