Lord Ludikrous posted:My Series X controller has developed some pretty awful vertical stick drift on the right stick. Tried replacing the potentiometer which solved it for about a week and its slowly gotten worse and is almost as bad as it was before. Did you replace both potentiometers on the right stick? When I fixed two PS4 controllers I made sure to change both and they've been fine. The other solution is to replace the entire stick module but that requires welding.

drat, that sucks console folks. Hopefully I can just brute force this into working well on my PC since it's probably going to be a mess.

No I only changed the vertical one as the drift is literally just straight up - you think it might be worth changing out the horizontal one as well?

I have a core controller with the exact same drift: right stick, up. (the other one has a hypersensitive A button) Wonder if it'd be worth it to open them up or just buy new ones on sale

Why the hell does stick drift seem to be so much more of a thing within the last bunch of years? Serious question. I’ve never personally dealt with persistent stick drift, though I have had a DS4 act kinda weird very temporarily.

All controllers use the same cheap potentiometer and the flaw is inherent in its design. Not a big deal with switch nowadays with Hall effect magnet replacements but PS5 and XS controllers have their sticks soldered in which is a big barrier for many

Its still funny the switch stick designer thought magnetic paint was sufficient vs a real magnet on sticks so shallow that the magnetic paint would be rubbing on something when the stick is pressed, sending magnetic paint flecks all over inside.

Still going through Atomic Heart. After tuning out the protagonist, the game becomes a fair bit more tolerable. Story is alright. I like the guns and have been enjoying the puzzle hunting for weapon upgrades; a kitted out dominator is a lot of fun to use. Boss fights are decent and challenging enough, also not too bullet spongy (especially with a kitted out dominator), but a maxed polymer shield skill tree has basically made me invincible lol.

It’s weird as far as the designs and when the scenery gets all fucky (definitely the best/most effective parts). Gameplay-wise it’s very very generic map game. I’m playing through it right now and I’ll finish it but that’s probably more to do with anhedonia than anything else.

They really shouldn’t launch it without that 60fps mode. It’s gone from ‘I’ll check it out at launch’ to ‘waiting for a patch’ which just means I’ll forget about it entirely and just play zelda or one of the other hundreds of games that come out.

I'll give it a try but I ain't paying for it lol What confuses me is that personally if they only had time to make either a 30FPS pretty mode or a 60FPS still pretty mode why not always go with the 60FPS one that is basically as nice? Whenever I see games that are have switchable modes it seems no one ever uses the "quality" mode besides screenshots. I have a Series S but every game effected seems just as hosed on the Series X so I don't think that's the problem unlike that one dev said.

I assume its because fanboys all do screenshot comparisons and hoot and holler if a first party game isn't true 4k. That said as a first party microsoft studio you'd think theyd have access to the metrics of if people prefer performance or graphics so its possible we're in a bubble

It's like PC games where a regular rear end computer can run it on normal-high but you need to invest $5k at least to run everything on max. And no one but you can even really tell the difference. They just ask if the game is fun. And you say no, it's Cyberpunk at release.
