Thread: Sony facing class action suit over ps5 controller

This company just hates gamers, not even sure why people keep shilling for them at this point.

In b4 haptic feedback

Pretty disappointing if sony's controllers are having drift issues, it did seem like like the new technology might have created some issues, but hopefully they get it fixed asap because the haptics and trigger effects are so far beyond and revolutionary than whatever MS did for their controller this gen lol.

Nintendo was mentioned in the article about also having the issue.

Are we still using this narrative when it's already been debunked and everyone almost universally agrees that Sony's implementation of this tech is a step above what the competition is doing?





You had Microsoft passing out a survey the other day asking xboxers if they want haptics for the xbox lol.

jesus, mgtfp shills for PS5 like jaydawg shills for lebron james lmao

it's like they both have an automatic notification on bb.com any time the word is mentioned and like chinese bots are programmed to reply to every single one of them

sad!

[quote]"As many of you notice in our teardown video, these joystick modules look extremely familiar. You may recognize already it from the PS4 controller of the Dualshock 4. Or from the Xbox One controllers. Maybe the Nintendo Switch Pro controller. Or how about the $180 Xbox One Elite controller. Underneath these plastic caps, the dirty secret is that they're all using the same joystick hardware."
- ifixit

Namely, this $0.88 part called a "potentiometer," which is featured in all of the above controllers and more.



Beyond the part being cheap even without industry manufacturing volume expenses, a contributing factor to the varying levels of wear and drift comes down to human use, which is going to pretty much be determined by the games themselves.

So in part, you can blame all of those developers who have a love affair with mashing in the left thumbstick to sprint, crouch, or what have you because that click-in action puts additional strain on the rings of the potentionmeter. You ever have that feeling that pressing L3 just wasn't... natural? Yeah, neither does the controller.

One of ifixit's proposals to the companies is to make the control stick modules easier to disassemble and replace, and just using better quality materials.

News Flash, controllers break. Next up, Tom Hanks in a movie where he portrays a real life person.

Doesn't even know he's a shillbot.

BRB, brings up a sony issue, immediately deflects to Microsoft.

BRB, Sony is best, no ifs ands or buts

BRB, so closed minded he can't think of anything else being good on another platform.

I run controller on PC and those little sticks are always the first to go.

Thanks for proving my point.. again.. dumb f*ck.


I'm NoT cOpInG, yOu ArE!

How bad is the stick drift? I've been using the same xbox controller for 2 years now and I really have no issues. There is a slight stick drift sometimes, but it's not noticeable, nor does it affect my gameplay. If it just kept scrolling on one direction then yeah I'd be pretty pissed too. Controller should last 3 years IMO.

You are a narrow-minded fool and play on a $500 potato. And yes, we do have the best games. PC's library is exponentially larger than any console's, especially with Game Pass and emulators available to us.

You're legitimately stupid.

My 1708 (late) model xbox one controller started drifting straight upwards in the right stick after 4 months. It's not due to wear and tear from the joystick loosening and leaning either. The potentiometers are simply trash.

Seems like early xbox one and ps4 controllers used the previous gens analogs. Then they switched to the trash ones.

cant imagine having mentally ill psychosis like this. microsoft is literally nothing but scum leftists and mustard race.

Joycon drift on the nintendo switch controllers are annoying as hell. Mostly has to do with dirt/dust getting inside that little flap. Some alcohol on a q-tip inside of there then re-calibrate fixes it, til the next time dirt/dust build up happens again.


I haven't had issues yet with my ps5 controllers.. I have two of em, but more likely because its been waiting for games to be released so I can play something.

Always funny to see people who haven’t used it try and tell people what it’s like.
