ALC Tweaking
How did you guys start when adjusting your ALC settings? Did you dial everything up & go down as needed? Or dial everything down & go up as needed?

@pandareno1999 yeah I've been playing around with Ads & also dead zone & outer zone. Thinking about picking up that new Sony Edge controller when it drops.
@Lord_Scorpion34 If the edge controller is more than $150, which I think it will be, just get an aim controller.
- @hayhor Never heard of that. I'll have to look it up.
@Lord_Scorpion34 Hayhor and I have both been using AIM controllers since the next gen update. I was using Scuf before that. I really can't speak highly enough about their product. I'm sure that X percent of them get stick drift early or whatever, that's just any controller really because the thumb stick electronics in controllers is just a crappy design in general. They're not really manufactured to survive as much use as they get. Mine's about 7 months old and functioning perfectly still. Just a wee bit of drift on 1% dead zone.
By contrast, my Scuf PS4 controller pretty much had some nasty drift out of the box. I enabled ALC not too long after getting it, and I had to run about 8% dead zone to not have any drift. By the time it was a year old, both sticks had drift (the left stick drift made the controller unusable for Apex) and a problem with one of the paddles.I reckon that the upcoming Sony pro controller will cost more than AIM and I don't quite trust their quality control all that much.
- @pandareno1999 To add to this, I'm at around 10.5 months on my aim controller without any real drift. Just the one paddle eventually fatigued enough to break at about 8 months. But for $10 they sent me an entire new set of paddles.
You can make them way more expensive with looks and digital buttons and triggers but I don't see the need for all that. My friend got one with digital triggers and immediately sent it back to have regular ones put in.
