3 Months on The SCUF Instinct Pro! Reliability, Performance, and Recommendations

[@xtermaa3744]

I've had mine for about a week now and the first two days I couldn't get over the nagging feeling that it had a considerably large dead zone out of the box. I was noticing sluggish movement still even after adjusting my dead zones in-game for like 3 hours in multiple games trying to get to the bottom of it. I saw a Reddit post saying they also felt this but no one mentioned it improving. I decided to update the controller with the Xbox accessories app and luckily I noticed a major improvement in the responsiveness of the controller afterward. If someone here happens to get the controller and feels the same thing give that a shot. I was on the verge of returning it and it was sad cause I like this controller lmao

[@vCuda]

I'd also recommend everybody to try and update their Instinct. I didn't for the first week because I hadn't used it on my Xbox until then lol

[@Lars-.-]

@@vCuda hi bro, i love you're video's and by watching them i still don't know what is the best 4 paddle xbox controller. Wich controller do you recommend to me? Money ain't no problem i had multiple elite v2's and 1 aimcontroller

[@vCuda]

@@Lars-.- Its gotta be between the Victrix Gambit, Fusion Pro 2 in terms of OVERALL performance. They're decent 4 button/paddle controllers

Haven’t finished the video yet but, please update again whenever you notice defects or problems with the controller! Will be curious to see how long that takes

[@tristanmiramont698]

Took me one year for the two paddle buttons tu break 😢

[@Lurch-11]

My Elite Series 2 had one paddle half stop working and the A/B buttons sticking and all happened at same time its weird, but had the controller for like 3 years. Worked flawlessly the entire time. Just ordered the Scuf yesterday and gonna order another elite 2 just in case bc ik that's for sure reliable.

[@franksmith8210]

I must have hot the jackpot because I've been using my Scuf for about 800 hours now and have had absolutely zero issues. I did replace the thumb sticks about 50 hours ago because I felt like they were getting a little worn down, they didn't look any different but they did feel a little odd, they're back to normal now and the entire controller still feels new to me. I've been VERY impressed for a controller that I was told wouldn't last long.

[@javiersosa1750]

I’ve been through 3 elite 2s and just recently my elite 2 got horrible stick drift on both sticks, when I looked at my warranty sticker, I realized that was 6 days too late to cover it under warranty so that was frustrating but ultimately my fault for not checking earlier. I just ordered the instinct pro to try something new for a change because I really love the elite 2 but these problems are just too common. For anyone who’s in the same boat as me and still wants a second opinion on whether to keep the elite 2 or to try the new instinct pro, come back to this comment on the 5th or 6th of April and I’ll give you my thoughts on the controller. Just a FYI, I play warzone semi competitively. Anyways thanks for the review great as always! Edit: sorry if you were waiting on an update from me yesterday, but I feel like I need like 3 or 2 more days and I will confidently have an answer for you guys thx! Edit 2: So after enough playing time, I feel like I came to my final conclusion. The conclusion that I came to was that, this is definitely one of the best controllers I played with. However it doesn’t completely over shadow the elite 2. Just for some context, I never liked trigger stoppers, they always felt weird to me and these were kinda no different. They definitely feel better then just regular trigger stoppers but that’s all I can really say about that aspect of the controller I had to disable it after a few matches I just felt that it didn’t really give me an edge as I already have a decent trigger finger, if you are one of those people that like having the trigger stoppers on then these will definitely fell fantastic, I myself never gravitated to stoppers so I feel like my opinion on the hair triggers don’t matter too much. The PADDLES/BUTTONS felt pretty good. I rarely use all 4 of my paddles on the elite 2. I Manley use just two, the reason for that is I never really liked using all 4 as it felt like I didn’t have a good grip on the controller, but with the design on this controller it felt funny at first but I kinda got used to it and liked it , definitely not for everyone as I read that people don’t really like the ergonomics of the paddles. If you were just like me and only used 2 paddles then this shouldn’t be a problem, I never once hit the other button by accident and those extra buttons are there just in case you ever want to use all 4. So just to wrap things up I will say that if you really don’t have money to throwing around then I can’t comfortably recommend you this controller but if you are fortunate enough to afford one then I promise you that you’ll love the controller. I would personally give both the elite and the new scuff an 8/10. They both feel great but like I said, this scuff is not levels ahead of the elite 2 so don’t feel like you need to buy this in order to compete at the highest level. Hopefully that was easy to read/understand, if anyone still needs some advice on which to pick, fill free to comment below and I will try to answer.

[@jamiedickson2555]

Bought the Instinct Pro at the beginning of February. After the first day I started noticing the LT trigger stop wasn't working properly, it wasn't stopping the trigger properly and felt like it was double clicking. Next day same with the RT. So I returned it for repair and got it back quickly but after a couple of days it happened again. Sent it back for another repair and again, after a few days I had the same problem. Returned it and got a refund. The controller felt great but with the piss poor warranty I wasn't willing to take the chance of the best part of the controller failing again. £200+ was too big a gamble for what you get. Have since bought the Razer Wolverine v2 Chroma and although I've only had it a short time it is working flawlessly, which is more than I can say for the multiple Scuf, Battle Beaver and Elite Series 2 controllers I've had in the past couple of years.

For your disconnection problem (maybe): in windows USB peripherals are by default set up to be shut down after some time to save power. For decades that's the first thing I disable whenever I install Windows. You can find it in device manager. In the list of USB tree and each peripheral you'll find something like power option/ shut down this peripheral to save power... I do it for each one + mice, keyboards...

i feel like the problem with some of these review videos, is that they dont consider every type of consumer who would be interested in this item, it seems like you like to play with this controller wired. why? me personally i cannot go back to wired i just hate it. for me the reason i am most interested in this controller, is NOT simply because it has clicky switch triggers. its because it has a faceplate that removes with replacable sticks and easier access to repaire the sticks if further damage occurs, and because it takes double A batteries. this is a big deal because you can literaly get rechargable batteries for it and never worry about it. so the option is nice. to me, it is rdiculous that the elite 2 controller doesnt have that option. so, yes, nice triggers, nice access to sticks, custom faceplates, great rubber grip, same quality of series s controllers, still updatable through xbox controller app on windows, and has replaceable D-pad as well. basically, for me i was searching for an xbox series s controller with better features and more user friendly repair options and battery pack custom possibility. and thats exactly what the instinct pro is. AND you can buy a motion control add on that outputs through steam as ps4 controller, which means, basically you get all those amazing options, and you can use motion controls for shooters. its the most custom controller for me, and i love that. even the elite 2 pales in comparison. yes custom stick tension would be cool, but....i mean. im a big fan of motion controls so, its kind of useless to me anyway.

[@vCuda]

So basically You feel like the problem with these review videos is that they don't discuss the things you want them to discuss? lol I use it wired because the response times are more consistent and I don't have to have batteries in. I'm on PC as well, so its way easier to use wired. Its weird that you say you're interested in the instinct pro for the removable faceplate and thumbsticks, when I've literally reviewed $80 controllers that do the same thing. What I mean is, this is an unbelievably common feature that can be found on multiple controllers under $200. This is why I said the only interesting feature on the controller is the clicky triggers. Which is objectively true, all the features here aside from those can be found on other, cheaper custom controllers with longer warranties so their existence invalidates the Instinct Pros in most scenarios I understand that you enjoy the instinct pro, but take a second to think about the amount of money you paid for it. Look at a controller like the Victrix Gambit, its a wired controller thats $100, claims to be the fastest Xbox controller, and has damn near as many features as the Series 2. Price to Performance matters man!

What other controller had instant click triggers?

Finally a video in my feed not about the oscars or some problem in the world. last three days even gamers I watch have done nothing but be silent. This is a refresh

[@iamflashin]

didnt really here everything because of background noise did a little skipping BUT I LOVE YOUR ATTITUDE BRO WITH THE CURSING MAN KEEP IT UP

Has anyone gotten one of these to work on linux? Ive tried various drivers but no luck. Both wired and wireless BT.

nice video man keep up the good work.

whats the controller at 5:12?

Much better! Thank you

What kind of platform kontrol freeks work on the SCUF intsic pro

[@JamiesonM]

Huh. Think the connection thing with wired might be an xbox controller thing cause I got a regular one that tends to do the disconnect roulette whenever. Should it still not be a thing that happens? Yes

[@synxaii3069]

Take batterys out when wired

[@JamiesonM]

@@synxaii3069 Shouldn't have to. I know it fixes it, but it still shouldn't be happening lol.

Don’t suppose you could review the Scuff Relfex, would be interested to see your opinion on that as well.

[@vCuda]

I might, but Jesus christ is it expensive. Imo, purely from a specs perspective, there's literally no way it'll be worth it

[@vernonasian]

I love this guy 🤣

[@kurokaen1234]

Doesnt usually at this 3 month mark the old gen scuf is when the joysticks wear off? Its crazy how the rubber of the new gen scuf controller joysticks is now similar to the joystick of normal controllers, big improvement

[@vCuda]

Yeah it usually took less than half a year for old sticks to fall apart. Crazy!

[@bigpaine9080]

Are there any other controllers with clicky triggers as an alternative or is the instinct pro the only one

[@vCuda]

Clicky triggers are common with custom controller makers like Battle Beaver and Aim. SCUF just has clicky triggers that can be turned off in favor of normal triggers, which hasn't been done before

[@bigpaine9080]

@@vCuda thanks for the feed back I’ll look into it

[@tempyo512]

Also what about wired on the xbox does it still do it?

ordered the back button attachment for PS4 controller

I just bought a scuff instinct pro and love it. But it did take a couple days to get used to using it.

[@erazh1202]

Great videos about controllers. I buy elite v2 2 weeks ago because I broke my v1 (after 3 years using a lot) I don’t know if it’s just me but the paddles on elite 2 feels slower it’s kinda garbage the elite 1 was perfect for me especially because I need to spam. I see there are scuf paddles should I try them?

There worth a shot from what I hear, but I myself have never tried them

I've missed yall too. Sorry I haven't been around as often. Every time I try to get back into the swing of things I'm taken out of it again. Hopefully things are different this time

[@disanthr0]

I have 2 of these controllers since they released. Mine have had no issues whatsoever.

[@vCuda]

Yeah, but these controllers have only been around for 4 or 5 months I believe. I'm glad they aren't dying immediately, but the real test is the 6-9 month mark, no pun intended lol. Although with the performance of stock XSX and XB1 Controllers, idk how well that'll fair

[@runitbackchop8923]

The Razer Wolverine Ultimate V1 edition is about 65$-80$ on Amazon that controller obliterates this one. But you know I got it cause of you and if it breaks I’m just buying another ultimate for cheap now

[@TheJoshua6430]

Have you reviewed evilcontrollers ??? They have the best ergonomically designed paddles with full hand coverage on all 4 paddles for fps shooter games

[@marcgil256]

What’s the polling rate?

[@bruhmoment1372]

Have you tried skull and co thumb grips? They are my favorites and I like them more than kontrol freaks and are only like 10 bucks.

[@NoxLegend1]

No Dpad discussion? The absolute most important point for competitive fighting game players who may be seeking reviews... (Street Fighter 6 has just come out and MK1 is coming out soon) It might be smart to consider testing and reviewing this aspect.

[@vCuda]

I always will if it's noteworthy, but in this case it's simply a stock XSX D-Pad. I've heard many who play fighting games enjoy the XSX D-Pad very much, but I didn't think it was something to focus on in this review. There are many pro controllers much cheaper that would likely be better for fighting games in terms of value-per-dollar like the GameSir G7. Which has an absolute AMAZING clicky D-Pad and ABXY buttons for only $45. But its wired, and doesn't come with physical trigger stops, only software related trigger adjustments

[@NoxLegend1]

@@vCuda Thanks. This is a good controller I heard a lot of good things about it. I am really enjoying the Xbox Series X dpad, comparing it to DS4, DS5, Vitrix Pro, and Xbox Elite, for fighting games. It has the best balance of comfort and precision, most importantly precision and capability of easy 360 inputs.

[@Algebraiic]

honestly i went through the elite series 2 and v2 chroma over the past several months and none have felt as great as the instinct pro. i do not regret the cop one bit, feels so great. no problems as of yet, but let’s see a year in

[@rmoulster]

Exact same journey and have just ordered the pro. Liked the v2 but the paddle placement is horrendous. 4 months later and I'm getting drift issues. One day we will get a £200 control thats lasts more than 6 months!

[@EnvyMe133]

I’ve had mine since day one and just today I got an issue with one of the back paddles and when I hit them up for a warranty fix but I noticed it happened as soon as the warrant ended smh like 1 week after😑

No, Severe stick drift after 6 month and 20 days...out of warranty, Scuf said it would have to be rebuilt and at least $100 to fix. Sorry, going back to Elite 2 with the $60 extra warranty.

[@tempestzz5682]

Thats what happens when you buy from scuf,its made to break and its overpriced for no reason...i don't feel bad for you tho, research before making that Kind of investment...

[@ffnichols1]

@@tempestzz5682 The research for this controller was virtually non-existent since it was a newly released design. I was not asking for your sympathy rather trying to share an early review and confirmation that despite a really good button layout and mouse-click bumpers the joysticks are still as cheap as any other controller out there and their warranty is horrible which I knew when I purchased it. Not sure why you had to be toxic but I wish you well in your happy life, cheers!

[@Volker_A4]

I modded a PS5 controller a while back and I'm getting addicted to the higher stick tension on it. My Razer controllers are feeling pretty imprecise in comparison. Might try out that gambit controller since it's not too expensive and I have a problem.

[@paulibabba5566]

I have a Gambit and i love it. I only use the two paddle because the four is too close for me but everything else is solid. I also like the Dolby Atmos and two year warranty included
