This Controller is straight flames, this is killing PlayStation.

Not really... Still no option to switch place on the D-pad and the analog stick which in games when you use both analog sticks, it's much better.... and I personally think the textured triggers is really bad as it's already terrible on keyboards when they do that with like WASD and spacebar. Other than that, Xbox controller is good.Also what's up with the rings on the Domed sticks? it was terrible on the WiiU, why have it on xbox. Older dualshock had better domed analog sticks and texture. (PS4 analog sticks just garbage, I always replace them with domed ones)

[@Jacaerys1]

Hope some one comes up with a good set up for Destiny 2 or Starwar Battlefront 2. Please and thank you lol.

[@anonymous-37]

Jalen destiny I use aggressive on the left thumb stick and move the slider more to the right. Right thumb stick I use smooth and move it far to the left (an alternative to smooth could be instant too) both triggers at 0-1, vibration off, Xbox button brightness all the way down and for button mapping I have a paddle for jump you can use other things if u want. Also in game on destiny I’ve remapped my crouch to the right thumb stick through what it think is called puppeteer. I hope you found even some of this helpful

@@Roockie117 wow, same. I thought mine became unresponsive because I spilled some juice on it. Yeah the RB works when it wants. And the controller is starting to disconnect randomly more often now. The battery life is still awesome and everything else is fine. I will most likely buy another for next gen.

For FPS I love putting sprint (L Stick Click) on the back left. Don't have to ever push down on the stick. Then A and B on the right side back.

[@InvaderZIM__763]

If you are on apex legends, it has auto sprint, just max out the stick upwards and it sprints

[@Elvite]

For each of my active profiles, I have assigned a shift key to a paddle that I do not intend to use and then I assigned a shift function to the right shoulder button to launch the app for which I have that profile set up for. I have this consistent across all three profiles (currently Modern Warfare, the Outer Worlds, and Dishonored 2). All I have to do is select my profile, hold my shift paddle + RB and (boom) it launches the game for me. I like this because I don’t even have to be looking at my screen to know that I’ve just started up the game that I wanted to. What’s cool is that if I accidentally press that combination again (while in that profile’s game), it doesn’t screw anything up because the game is already launched. I have also assigned a shift function to D pad up to record/capture what I just did in a game, D pad down to take a screenshot, and D pad left and right to turn TV volume up and down. I’m really liking it!

[@inferno6736]

how did you get your volume to work on the controller? I have the same layout as you (volume) but the volume does not change.

[@DDRWesselink]

How did you set it up so it launches the game with that command? I just bought mine yesterday. Thanks man!

[@Elvite]

@@DDRWesselink it’s been a while, I just took a look and… 1. In a game profile you are setting up, assign a button or paddle you won’t have a need for as a “shift” button. There’s a box for that button that you simply check. In my case, I never intended to use those bottom left-side paddles on my elite controller, so I made those both shift buttons. I tend to use right paddles for things like crouching or jumping types of actions. 2. Choose any other button and you’ll see a spot for what that button will do when you are holding down a shift button. Entering that, you’ll see a tab for “Actions”. Choose the action you want it to do. There’s a lot to choose from. In this case, select “Launch app”. 3. After doing that, you’ll see a section for that button called “Mapping”. Select the app you want to launch. Again, I always used the left bottom paddles that I didn’t feel much need for otherwise and then I used my LB shoulder button as a game launcher when shifted. Keep in mind that when not shifted, that LB button (or whatever you chose) just does whatever else it would ordinarily do or was assigned by you to do. Use whatever combo of buttons or paddles that works for you, but being consistent in your setup will make launching games easy no matter what profile you have selected. It becomes muscle memory at that point. I also set up some other buttons that did things like record what just happened, take a screenshot, adjust TV volume, etc. There’s lots of fun actions to choose from, but easily launching the game connected to the profile I have my controller set to was the coolest thing to me. Hope that helps!

The A button doesn't always work with mine. I hear it clicking, but nothing happens at times. Now I read it's a common problem and is a hardware problem... 179 euro's... wow. They messed up.

[@colaboytje]

@sami firdose 1941. I went to exchange it in the store. Got a new one. Exact same problem. The A button gets stuck and stops registering input for a while. It's a hardware problem. I contacted MS support: they aknowledged that they get many repair requests for the Elite v2, and I can get mine replaced for a new one, but they expect that it will have the same problem. (So the support for the Netherlands and Belgium admits that the issue is a common problem). They really messed up.

[@colaboytje]

@sami firdose The problem is that you can't go to a store and ask for a specific batch. They just stock the batch they were supplied with by MS. The real question for me is: will MS offer a free exhange program, where they provide you with a known working batch? Or will they just refer you to the repair service, where you don't know if the new one will work. The first option means that MS has to call back all faulty batches from stores and buyers. That will cost them a shitload of money. I think they will do what they first did with RROD problem: keep pretending it's only a few users. It's not like this controller will sell so well that there is a chance of a lawsuit, like they had with the Xbox360, which forced them to extend the waranty to 3 years and the obligation to provide updated versions.

Popularity is always the point, they spend the most time developing the features that are going to benefit the majority if people. Besides, you're request is strange anyway, y-axis inversion makes sense for people used to flight sim games, I really cant understand the need for x.

Lets hope they fixed the grip glue and back buttons from jamming, I had a 1st gen one, and had those problems before i had to recycle it at a electronic recycling center.... There went 160.00 dollers!!!!! Thanks Microsoft!!!! It crapped out in the end.

[@Elvite]

The grips coming off my series 1’s was really a heartbreaker. Luckily, I was able to replace it at a Microsoft Store location despite not having actually bought it at a Microsoft Store (they were so awesome). Unluckily, the grips fell off that one within a few months anyway just like the first ones. Here’s hoping this is fixed on the series 2’s. It almost looks like the grips are physically a part of the actual housing of the controller, like they were all cast in the same mold. The only “seam” I can see is the one where the top and bottom of the controller comes together. Time will tell I guess.

I have one paddle be my shift key, and all the other paddles control volume, screenshot/record, and view party and play/pause media. Then I have my d-pad + shift to launch some of my favorite apps like KZbin and Spotify, and I have my ABXY + shift to launch some of my favorite games like Siege or Battlefront II.
