PS4 Controller ADS Vertical Drifting Bug

Product: Battlefield V
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 4 Slim
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer
Which part of the mode? Breakthrough
Please select your region North America
On which server did this happen? Official DICE Servers
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 06/02/20 10:50
Summarize your bug When aiming down the sights of any weapon on the PS4, the gun will slowly aim upwards whilst the player is not touching the right stick.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Equip any weapon, aim down the sights, move the right stick downwards slightly and release.
What happens when the bug occurs? The sights will slowly drift upwards.
What should be happening instead? They should be holding their position where the player was aiming.

This has happened ever since the update dropped recently. I could only fix it by setting the Deadzone level on my controller to 35%. Controller is only a month old as well as the PS4.

    Are you able to try a different controller to see if the issue persists?

    Hi there, @RealStitchie.

    Do you have any other controllers you can try? I'd like to rule out any issues with it.

  • I find this happening to me if I set the stick deadzone too low on my Pro controller.
    (does not happen with the same deadzone setting for my normal PS4 controller)
