Re: Console Setup Thread

@hayhorYeah I didn't have drift on my PS4 controller. And def didn't on my PS3. Well I'm going to mod the existing controller. But I'm going to buy another one in the meantime plus if I ever play with someone else.

BB has the same issue as the other brands of a multitude of reports of premature stick drift.  I have heard great things about the thumb stick tension options.

There are options out there that are better but AFAIK you can't use them with a PS.  e.g. there's a Razer model PC players swear by, and there's a controller that has optical thumb sticks (I think that's what they are, I don't have time for a bunch of google-fu to look it up) instead of electronic potentiometers, which can be recalibrated if they develop drift.

@Lord_Scorpion34Get an Xbox, problem solved. Their base controllers are cool and the elite controller has to be one of the coolest things ever, it even has metal buttons and paddles. It’s very modular and you can adjust them a lot in the settings.

As far as I can tell, the Sony controller is basically a copy of the Scuf Reflex for an extra $100.  Franky, I don't trust any of their QC enough to take that bargain.  If you do get the Sony model, please send frequent updates on performance.  Sony controllers have been reported with just as many stick drift issues as the third party brands.  I believe that they all use the same cheap parts, particularly the stick potentiometers, from the same part suppliers.

@hayhorI didn't realize the sticks were that much lol. It'll be interesting to see how long they last.
@pandareno1999  how is it more than a Scuf. I've seen them being the same price

I've got a battle beaver custom for ps5.

Great controller but due to the back button setup if like me you have big hands it really isn't gonna be well suited to you, as the buttons are small and feel clumsy to use.

@MandatoryIDtag

I strongly considered BB but for two reasons did not buy. First and most importantly, AIM was literally the only 3rd party controller maker actually SELLING PS5 controllers when the update came. Every other manufacturer was just taking pre orders. Second, I just couldn't come to grips with deciding on the button locations without being able to feel them in my hand.

Tell us about your experience with the adjustable stick tension!!
