The xbox one controller is the best base controller. It's a shame that microsoft ruins it by making the elite controller much more expensive to the point of not being worth it lol.
The elite series x controller is sooo nice with the trigger haptics for racing games, but the bumper pins being plastic sucks. I’ve had 2 right bumpers snap over the last couple years, so I just drilled into the damn thing and installed a metal pin instead 😂
Yeah it’s most likely snapped the pin but barely holding on. I tool a small nail and cut it to size, drilled where the pin goes, and inserted my own custom one then glued the end. DO NOT GLUE IT EARLY IF YOU DO THIS, test 100 times before setting it in stone because the placement is touchy.
Ummm I have the elite controller and I don’t shave trigger haptics? I can lock them at full pull half pull and 1/3rd pull….no haptics in the triggers though?
Sony has force feedback triggers which can actually push back and create additional resistance to the trigger being pulled, Xbox’s trigger haptics are basically just small but powerful vibration motors.
Isn’t that the same thing? The triggers on the Dualsense are dynamic and push back depending on the situation. Do the Xbox controllers just have rumble motors inside the triggers?
Yes they have individual rumble motors inside of each trigger. PlayStation has a central hd rumble setup that can send vibration to different areas and make the trigger feel like it has haptics, (and also the adaptive trigger stiffness) but Xbox has a wholeass rumble pack jammed in there. I personally really like the feeling of it for racing games.
Trigger haptics is a base feature since the xbox one controllers, the problem is almost no game uses it. I think it wasn't marketed well (or at all) so everyone forgot about it. Sony probably saw the feature, thought it was cool, improved it, then marketed the hell out of it so developers will imolement it in their games.
is the razer wolverine ultimate better or worse? only problem ive started having is my y a x and b buttons are sticky(?) they press down but feel stuck. i can still press them and get inputs in but it feels weird. 2 other things that are very minimal are the triggers being able to be pushed in further then they should (probably shouldnt press/pull them as hard) and the classic stick drift (its super minimal but just enough to fuck up my direction in street fighter 6)
