Keep up the good content brodie

[@blueberrycracker6607]

Can you please review the Razer Raiju tournament & or ultimate?

[@JP050]

Really love your content! I don't know if you remember but i asked you several times if you where ever gonna review a battlebeaver controller because i really loved it. But i kinda regret buying one right now. My right thumbstick(with tension) stopped working properly within 6 months. I contact them about it and they didnt even want to repiar the controller for free or give some sort of compensation. I don't know where it says that they have a lifetime warranty but in my experience its bullshit. I can show you the e-mails that they where not helpfull in any sort of way. Such a shame though because i really liked the controller and now i wasted $220 for something that should atleast work properly for more then a year.

[@sleepsalibi9080]

How do you communicate to BB customs on their website that you want unique button placements on the back of your controller? I'm only seeing the option to choose preset button locations.

The Lifetime Warranty pushed me over the edge--it gives me peace of mind when spending so much on a controller.

[@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170]

Dude they dont have a lifetime warranty, I sent them three emails with no response and here I'm trying to spend money, imagine having to send back a broke controller. There controls are 30 days or spend an extra like $15 for 90 days, and if their controller breaks they may say it was due to abuse.

[@steverupert6988]

@@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170 Oh, wow--I had no idea. I'm glad you mentioned this, because I was literally about to order two of these controllers. In fact, I think maybe now I'll try the Astro C40. I just noticed they sell them at Best Buy and will let you exchange it for free if it has any problems. Too bad on the Battle Beaver Customs as I really wanted to try one.

[@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170]

@@steverupert6988 well from what I've heard battle beaver makes solid controller's, I've heard plenty bad about scuf in regards to they break, personally I would buy the battle beaver because they'll put the buttons where you want, custom made for your hands, never heard of the controller you mentioned but its 200 on Amazon and it only has one big ol button on the back, well with the beaver you can put 6buttons on the back and you never have to take thumbs off sticks pretty much, you can send in your controller and add 6 buttons for about 75, I'm going to send my controller to them.

[@tomatomustache1256]

Repent and follow Jesus Christ exactly. For a majority of people who actually use scuffs see and realize that it breaks and stick drifts easily. While it’s mostly the minority for the battle beaver that they don’t work. It is very very good quality. And just because some had negative experiences dosent mean you change. I feel like you should try the battle beaver. But definitely be careful and get the case for it. But if you feel that the Astro c40 fits you better. Go ahead

[@louislimas9529]

I've been debating which pro controller to get and this basically solidified what I've been suspecting. Battle Beaver is the way to go

[@hypernovawolf]

I've had my battle beaver for over 2 years, still going strong. One thing I would stay away from is smart triggers. They break all the time. Yes, you can send the controller in for repairs but after 4 times sending the controller in and spend about $10 for shipping each time, it adds up. So I had them put back the stock triggers back.

[@Kira-dc6gr]

I’ve had mine for 3 years with smart bumpers and i haven’t had any problems. (Maybe smart triggers are less durable than smart bumpers?)

[@xiHoPz]

100% I switched from scuf over to battle beaver after I got the scuf vantage and it had the dead space I couldn't handle. I actually watched your video and was a little relieved that someone else had the issue. But being a competitive player that I am I knew I could not use that Controller. I returned it, got my battle beaver and haven't looked back since. I ordered the controller on Monday and got it by Friday... Insane customer service. I made an unboxing video if you'd ever want to check it out. Thanks for your solid reviews brotha.

[@sulemagutierrez]

Will Hopkins you got it that fast I just ordered mine and it said it takes 7-8 weeks!

[@xiHoPz]

Roberto Gutierrez yeah man, I had ordered back in November when they had the 48 boost build and 48 ship. It was nutty. I ordered on Monday and then got it on Friday. Amazing.

[@sulemagutierrez]

@@xiHoPz Damn dude, well I hope it's worth the wait. I wonder why they took that option away

[@xiHoPz]

Roberto Gutierrez probably due to many orders they have gotten. They wouldn't want to promise something they wouldn't be able to pull through on.

[@sulemagutierrez]

@@xiHoPz Makes perfect sense

[@Utepers]

I’ve had two of these controllers. I spent the extra money for boosted shipping and the Delivery time took 9 weeks for each controller. I am betting money you got it delivered so fast because they know of your channel. Two friends of mine also ordered and had lengthy ship times so people don’t expect fast shipment. Spent 308 dollars each but I went all out. Go with increased thumbstick tension. Also, the streamer quiet buttons on the back are the way to go the other ones are very loud and people in party chat can here every single time you press them. If you have the money go for it if ya don’t dominator pack is just fine. Wicked grips are nice for not sweating hands but they do peak away in time and yes they somewhat interfere with pressing the buttons on the back but it doesn’t lead to miss clicks. I have no idea how you spent that little either. The thing about this controller is if it fucks up and you are used to increased sensitivity you have to send it in and wait a long time so you’re forced to wait and go back to a regular ps4 controller with different thumbstick tension. Ya almost need two. Unless you live in Texas because that’s where they are based out of. Hope this helps someone.

[@z-rossi3672]

I had the issue where the increased tension seemed to make the stick start drifting (like looking left slowly with no input) real quick. Like 3 months. Also had a really shitty repair experience where I sent them 2 controllers, they didnt fix either, didnt clean out the sticks so they still drifted, and they took of the grip for one and didnt put it back on... and they didnt respond to me when i emailed them dodging responsibility. I liked the controllers but that was real shitty, hell shipping itself was expensive as fuck and they did nothing! and charged for repair fees. Im still angry about that shit, I could have bought a new controller

[@Utepers]

Zach Idziak yeah you would need a new thumbstick for that I’d guess. Controller is amazing. Company needs to hire more people in my opinion.

[@Kroganmerc]

[@RayEccleston]

I purchased a controller late wish last year. Main features that I got were smart triggers/bumpers, increased tension on the right stick, and 4 rear buttons. Over the next 120 days (I got the extended warranty) I had to return my controller for the same issue with the down input on the directional pad not responding 4 times. Thankfully, that issue was FINALLY fixed, but now the left stick is making unwanted inputs to the left, so I will have to send it in again. To put this into perspective, I purchased a $225+ custom controller, and during the first 120 days it was at BBC getting repaired more than it was at my house ready to be used. It is a shame that this was my experience with them, as they clearly have the most impactful mods available on the market, but to say that I recommend treading lightly with their controllers and their repair policy would be an understatement.

Great review, I've checked out their website multiple times and decided to e-mail them to see if they would be able to customize an Xbox controller that I've been in search for. I'm looking for something similar to how Razer has their "m1 and m2" buttons in between the LT and RT. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any other company who allows custom buttons like those in between the RT and LT. Also, to see if they're capable of implementing their smart triggers into buttons to give that mechanical button feedback.

[@AdamFTAOH]

I had a battle beaver controller for alittle over a year. My experience is it’s too expensive and time consuming to receive to warrant the quality of the device. A few months in left smart trigger broke through the click part to becoming a normal trigger. Still worked just smart trigger didn’t hold up to extended usage. About 6 months after that my right smart trigger did the same thing. Over the year I had terrible stick drift seemingly come and go in both thumb sticks. My two back buttons aren’t very responsive after 6 months of normal wear and tear. Maybe I’m a heavier gamer then some, but the back buttons tend to stick and won’t respond to the clicks. My right back button popped off so now I’m stuck fiddling to find their switch on the inside of the back of the controller. If you considering sending it to be repaired be prepared to wait A VERY LONG TIME. By the time they get it, get around to fixing it, and sending it back it can take months and months. Not to mention the build time to construct the controller in the first place. Took about three or four months to get my controller. Would I get another one? No

Thanks for that info. I’ve gone through at least 8 Scufs and am now on my second Astro C40 with battle beaver modules. The replaceable modules were a great feature to save on purchasing whole controllers whenever an analog stick got run into the ground, but I also am an ... intense player so the square button on the first Astro and the R1 (I play tactical flipped) on the second one, all have failed from being pressed too much. There really doesn’t seem to be a perfect solution just yet on the market.

If you are broke I recommend the back button attachment made by sony for the ps4. It's actually pretty ergonomic, little to no latency, and tactile and easy to press buttons. I believe it's only $20 - 30 I dont remember paying much for it. Attaches to any regular ps4 controllers. And has an easy mapping system. It's all around a good deal. Ive been using mine for maybe a month now still works like when I got it. Not sure about longevity yet but for such a cheap price it is worth trying.

Sad part is the guy there at Aim named Adam K never got back to me and never really cared, so I'm stuck with the $230 controller that's not what I chose, on the other hand the Battle Beaver came perfect, it actually feels a little better than the AIM.

Still waiting for them to release the "SonicFox" pad, it's been over a year since he teased it :(

[@MrJazz41]

After doing research and looking at the different options, I decided to get a Battle Beaver too. When I first got my controller, right away the audio jack did not work. When I contacted the company, it took a few days for them to get back to me and all they told me was to try and reset the controller. After about 3 months, my left quick trigger stopped clicking and felt like the trigger was stuck and there wasn't any real response. It did continue working though. I also got the tension upgrade on my thumb sticks, both sides. After a few months, the left thumb stick would push forward and cause my character to move forward which I was not trying to do. It would come and go; sometimes working just fine and other times push forward. This was really frustrating, especially when you're trying to stand in place. If you are going to order a controller, I would also recommend that you get the express build. If you don't, expect to wait a really long time. I paid roughly $150 for my controller. I will be trying an AIM controller and hope that I don't have the same problems.

Great review! Yeah, i didn't really like my wicked grips either. When i received my controller the grip was already coming off out the box lmao. The buttons for sure were weird to hit with the grip on though, and sometimes the button would get caught on it. Bought my first BattleBeaver 3 years ago, never had an issue besides wear and tear problems since i tend to press hard on my triggers and thumbsticks. Bought another BB a year ago with smart triggers, and they are soooo much better than trigger stops. The smart triggers are getting a bit loose though, but thankfully there is lifetime warranty on smart triggers so if anything happens i can just send it in. If i had to say there was a downside to BattleBeaver, it would be the build/ship times....they are absolutely atrocious sometimes. Overall, i'd recommend BattleBeaver to anyone looking for a custom controller over scuf. The back buttons imo are a more "natural" feeling when you grip the controller...though to each their own, it's whatever you find most comfortable. ofc there is always cases of getting either a Defective product or something you will never have an issue for a long time, so my no issues may not be the case with everyone. I am excited to try the new Astro C40 controller out though next month! The functionality/software looks to be dope. I have wanted to get a Vantage/Impact due to swappable thumbsticks, but hate scuf paddles and their service. The Astro C40 will have that function and more, going between xbox style placement of thumbsticks...to ps4 thumbstick placement. Astro makes some pretty durable headsets, hopefully this controller will be the same way. CAN'T WAIT!

something to mention: if you hold you controller with a tight grip with all your fingers, this controller may not be for you as well. As if you map the buttons to be where your fingers are, you will no longer be able to grip the controller the same way, with the same grip (as you will be pressing the buttons with the fingers you would normally hold the controller with). was a problem for me personally while getting used to the Xbox Elite controller.

The Impact is the best controller I've ever used. I love the xbox shape with the ps stick layout. I only use 2 paddles so the placement works for me. I gave my 1st one to a mate so I could buy a second one with a new one with a different design lol

Nice review man. I knew about BBC long long time ago and was looking and actually almost ordered one from them. I decided to go with AIM after your review, because of the price. BBC are by far the most expensive in the market, but probably the best. If I ordered controller I wanted it would literally cost me more then $100 CAD with the current currency exchange rate than AIM controller. Also Aim has a bit better cosmetic customization and same smart bumpers and triggers. The only concern is paddles at the back of AIM controller, but I a sure I will adapt, because I have been using Striker pack for almost 2 years now. BBC gotta really drop the price, that is why they are extremely underrated. Price speaks a lot my dude. Also AIM has a lifetime warranty and that will become a standard in this industry for sure. There is another company called CINCH controllers, that has same back button layout like BBC and smart triggers and smart bumpers as well. At the end of the day, I will brake a lot of Scuff controller owners, but in these days SCUFF SUCKS big time, with their build quality, customer service and shitty warranty. Never considered ever to get one from them, just because I am not a fool spend $200 on a controller and after 3 months throw it in the garbage. Evil Shift controllers have similar back button layout at the back as well. So the market is plenty full with different companies to build Your controller, but as I said, what speaks to you is always $$$$$$.

The Steam Controller ($50 max) also has mouse-like bumpers though it's not usable on console. They have kind of a shockingly high actuation force, though. Razer Raiju has mouse-like face buttons, and I think so do most of their other controllers.

i purchased a battle beaver controller, i didnt have them add grips, but i did after receiving it decide to put on the extra padded controlfreeks grips ... i didnt have the same experience you seem to have had with grips self lifting off, however i did notice how the buttons seem to get lost in the grips lol ... well actually when playing i seem to hit the buttons just fine, but if im not playing and just pick up the controller i seem to hunt for the buttons a bit ... but for some reason in the heat of battle when i am not thinking about it i hit them just fine. i have larger hands and just like the way the controller feels beefy-er with the extra padded grips. i bought the controller specifically to play one game, so i have two back buttons staticly defined, smart triggers and bumpers, and the separate buttons d-pad. also have controlfreek omni thumbstick toppers. love playing with the controller. think i paid around 175 USD (minus the grips and sticks i added on). the only minus i think is the build time, altho i did order at the start of covid so im sure that had an impact.

[@Kwivr]

the controller looks nice. i love the way you do your camera angles

[@SuperCDOG1993]

Just got back from CWL London. I would say around 80% of the pro players (a lot of AMs were using scufs admittedly) were using battlebeavers. I had to chance to stand close to and watch many of the pro teams on the Bravo/Charlie/Delta stage. 4/5 OpTic members use battlebeavers (only Scump uses a scuf - his own design) All of Splyce/eU/Envy/100T use one. I could go on and on. Scuf obviously monopolise the gaming controller markets, but most of their COD pro affiliates use battlebeavers in secret.

[@Red-mt4qr]

I built one out on their website and it was $240 with the extended warranty and case. And it would take 2 months to build. That's crazy.

[@vampahh1171]

I wish you could get just the smart bumpers. You can get the triggers alone, but if you select the smart bumpers it includes smart triggers as well. Not a fan of that. And I love what BB does, but I really do like Scuf paddles and the Impacts ergonomics.

Battle Beaver Custom make amazing controllers. I've been playing Call of Duty anywhere between 2 to 10 hrs a day for close to a year on 2 different ones and they are super durable. I just ordered another one about a week ago.

[@chrisaguilar1410]

I love my controller. The only issue I have is that my right thumb stick mechanism is constantly going bad. My reticle starts to pull to the right every 3-4 months and I’ve had to send it in 3-4 times already. It doesn’t help that their work takes a month or two (ridiculous if you ask me) especially since I’ve had to get it fixed multiple times already and they charge you to get ahead of the order queue. All in all it’s a great controller.

I would think that Paddles are easier to engage during a firefight compare to a button, I like to be able to do some crouch shooting it’s so important. I figured out it clicking a paddle was easier since it’s like a lever than press a button ? Aim controller are perfectly positioned in that case
