well you can spot the duders that don’t play fighting games. honestly this clunky overpriced attachment only serves the shooster crowd for the ability to jump while aiming or melee etc. it is hardly necessary and we can bet the ds5 will have better than this with more refinement in accessibility on console options. is it good to have an option like this for sure, is it the be all end all? hardly. as is you can get a mayflash adapter and use whatever you want which a lot of people with a switch and ps4 do already. calling someone a simp or a virgin is pointless. grow the fuck up. getting these and the stick height add ons begs the question why aren’t you just playing shoosters on pc? well? pc is the superior platform for that genre full stop. as well as others like strategy.

I went with the Xbox Elite series 2 over the Dualshock 4 with the attachment for a couple of reasons. The main reason being the Elite controller is more than just a extra set of buttons and to diminish it as simply as that is ignorant. It's the ability to swap out the analog sticks, the d-pad and the back buttons that are key. This is all accomplished without the need to unscrew any part of the controller which cannot be said for the PS4 Dualshock equivalent of the Elite 2. The other key reason is the software to create custom Elite configurations isn't hard to use at all and allows for a even greater level of customization than the competition. Microsoft's software solution reminds me of the robust Steam controller solution but not as in depth. The software customization allows the Elite 2 controller to provide a level of accuracy that you simply can't match on a Dualshock 4 unless gyro control comes into play. Analog stick sensitivity is adjustable as well as customization of dead zones, analog trigger sensitivity and full button layout customization. Three controller profiles can be saved directly to the controller and supports Xbox One, PC and even Switch as I use a Elite Controller wireless on Switch with a Brock One X adapter that adds gyro aiming. My custom profiles on the Elite are recognized when using the controller on Switch. When discussing the extra buttons they are important but not the whole story, this cannot be stressed enough. But I do give the Dualshock credit here through because even just two extra back buttons are a godsend. It's a terrible design to have jump assigned to any of the face buttons because it forces the user to take their thumb off of the right analog stick to press the jump button. In fast paced games, not only can this make you less accurate under pressure it can be the split second difference between killing your opponent or your opponent killing you. Yeah, the Elite 2 controller is expensive but it's a hell of lot more involved with it than just extra buttons. A Dualshock 4 with the attachment doesn't even match the original Elite Controller because the original Elite supports in depth customization similar to the Elite 2. On PC, neither controller is better than the Steam Controller unless fighting games come into play. Otherwise, the Steam controller gives mouse/keyboard levels of speed and accuracy in any game that requires the player to accurately shoot a target. Neither the Elite, Elite 2 or the Dualshock 4 reach that level of precision but the Elite/Elite 2 are closer to it than the Dualshock 4 even with the extra button attachment.

For pc use, the fact that the elite buttons are handled in software is actually also a positive thing. Unfortunately Microsoft doesn't allow it, but with rewasd you can map those back controllers to something other than another controller button. For instance in dragons dogma I had one pedal bound to a keyboard key and used it to drink potions in fights, something that normally is not possible with a controller without opening the menu. Unfortunately rewasd does cost money though. With Sony's solution I don't think this is possible because the conversion is all done on the controller so the PC won't know if you pressed the back button or the button it's assigned to. Other than that, personally I have to say that after using the joy that is the elite controller, it's hard to go back to a regular one, Sony or Microsoft. If you play a lot I'd say it's worth it (depending on your financial situation of course). edit: By the way, one thing that I'm not so convinced about regarding the Sony attachment... The DS4 battery life is pretty appalling, I think we all know that. So I have two controllers and switch between that, when one starts to get empty I switch it with the one that was charging. But with this I'd have to unplug and replug the extension every time too. I'm wondering how long the connectors would be alright with that.

Bought this out of curiosity seeing that I don't need it because I have a Scuf Impact controller for the PS4. But the paddles in this adapter feel way better than the stiff, small, vertical paddles on the pro controller. I would love to Sony expanding on this with the PS5 with 4 paddles. Also, with this adapter and the Magic-NS Controller adapter for the Nintendo Switch, I now have an "Elite" controller for the Switch with working gyro sensors. It is an amazing experience playing Breathe of The Wild with an easy to reach jump button.

Back buttons need to be standard and seen as unique inputs. Mapping existing inputs to back buttons is nice, but having them as options for additional input increases the range of what developers can do. I'd suggest making them optional since some people really don't like back buttons. Not only will making them unique inputs open the doors for more options it will allow for better native across games, meaning no need for profiles since it's naturally part of your custom controller scheme.

You can't use the device on its own. You need to add the base PS4 controller price (lets say £40) to it as well. Also the X-Box Elite controller is of higher quality and more precision and not like the base controller quality of X-Box or Playstation. And you can change any buttons functionality on the XB Elite, more paddles, swappable d-pad and thumbsticks.

Like the elite series 2 a lot but my first once had some issues. It powered off randomly and the left thumbstick failed to center, so I sent it to Microsoft under warranty and in 2 weeks I got a replacement. Mostly likely it was a repair of a different controller because it had an issue as well. The left bumper didn't work, so I sent it to Microsoft and 3rd time is a charm. This one works fine, like the controller a lot but took a while before I could even use it.

As someone who had a PS4 and not an Xbox, I am not all that interested in comparing the back buttons to the Elite controller. I'm more interested in how this attachment compares to the controller thats blimming well sitting on the shelf behind you guys, the Razer Raiju. Also marking it down because you can't be arsed disconnecting the attachment so you can plonk it in a dock is really clutching at straws.

released at the final year of PS4 lifecycle, $30 is just slightly less than a new controller, and the biggest downside is that it has compatibility issue and might just not work on your older version controllers. I've tried on my sunset orange gen 5, the led doesn't light up, the buttons does nothing, only headphone jack works normally, it also caused my controller disconnect from PS4 several times.

I like the ease of having the button mapping on the controller, but the Xbox software lets you map any button to any other button. I hope Sony does that at some point.
@tremelo85084 жыл бұрын
Gotta give major props to Sony. For a device that is an an attachment, it feels perfect, as though its actually sculpted into the controller. I hope the DS5 has four buttons that implements into the controller in a similar fashion (without the attachment of course) It feels better than the paddles on my Power A Xbox controller or the paddles on the Steam Controller, which are a bit of cheese, because they are really part of the battery door (but they work fine).

Don't buy an elite controller. I hear the term *premium* being thrown around alot about the xbox elite controller in this video. I have gone through 3 elite controllers in a span of 5 months. Out of the 3, the first elite controller had the rubber underneath peel off from the heat of my hands. The second controller had the right bumper breaking from normal use. And the 3rd controller had both the bumper breaking and the rubber starting to peel off from the heat of my hands. In conclusion, the xbox one elite controller cannot be labeled as a premium product since it has incredibly poor durability. It is a cheap product made out of premium material at a premium price. Its better to buy a stock controller as they are a lot more durable or go for the cheapest option for paddles, knowing that you wont have to spend as much when it breaks.
