Reddit mentions of Xbox Elite Wireless Controller

Not sure to be honest. When I looked at it a while ago, I figured the steam controller would be worse for me 'cause of it's layout. And I don't know anyone who has one to give it a try before buying. I have been thinking about getting the Xbone elite controller because it's so adjustable. Though it's crazy expensive for a controller.

It is unfortunate that so many games now have such complex controls that it invariably ends up less accessible to people like us with mobility based disabilities.

One thing I would recommend, though it won't help with the games you've listed here as they're PS4 (or at least console) exclusives. Consider moving to PC gaming. I personally prefer console gaming, with PS4 being my system of choice, but the ability to change key-binding with PC makes it much more accessible. I'd also highly recommend this controller.

The added flexibility this controller gives should improve your gameplay experiences.

I had a similiar issue, my old stick was naturally a little loose and hyper sensitive, so just resting my hand on it caused it to input roll because it was loose enough that the idle weight of my tiny little hands was moving it. This resulted in having to make the deadzones WAY bigger than I wanted them to be.

If you're in the market for a new controller heres some options from least to most expensive as well as amazon links for buying them.

Xbox 360 Pad: $28

• Pros: CHEAP, works, comfortable

• I own one and have played Elite with it
  
  Steam Controller: $50
  
  
• Pros: Cheapish, works, comfortable, plenty of buttons, overly customizable software options to ensure it just works with everything!
  
• Cons: Touchpad in place of traditional D-Pad/Right Joystick can be janky in some games and some people just downright don't like this.
  
• I own one and have played Elite with it.
  
  T-Flight HOTAS X: $50
  
  
• Pros: Cheap, well made, works with PS4 if you're a PS4 commander

  Xbox One Controller + Wireless PC Adapter: $63
  
  
• Pros: Upgrade to the 360 version

  Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS HOTAS: $108
  
  
• Pros: Cheap for a HOTAS, well made, mini analog stick on throttle.
  
• Cons: Mini Analog stick is in a weird place (subjective)
  
• I do not own this, but I would buy it if I needed another HOTAS
  
  Xbox One Elite Controller: $140
  
  
• Pros: upgrade over the standard xbone controller

• Pros: Looks like the joystick and throttle in Elite.
  
• Cons: No ministick on throttle.
  
  Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS: $449
  
  
• Pros: All Metal Construction, very solid piece of hardware

  -----------------------------------------------------------------
  
  Okay with the all in one box stuff out of the way there are some good mix and match options from CH Products which I'll list below. My current set up is CH Fighterstick, CH Pro Throttle, CH Pro Pedals, + HTC Vive for headtracking (or ED Tracker for headtracking when I don't want VR)
  
  CH Flightstick: $75
  
  
• Pros: Solid Build Quality, Ambidextrous
  
• Cons: Ugly, not a lot of buttons, no twist yaw
  
  CH Combatstick: $94
  
  
• Pros: Solid Build Quality, thumb button.
  
• Cons: Ugly, no twist yaw
  
  CH Fighterstick: $116
  
  
• Pros: Solid Build Quality, 4-way Hat thumb switch

• I own this and this is my primary stick for Elite
  
  CH Flight Sim Yoke: $120
  
  
• Pros: Can double as a driving wheel!
  
• Cons: No triggers, not a lot of buttons, some players have reported yokes don't work well for twitchy flight gameplay like combat.
  
  CH Pro Pedals: $121
  
  
• Pros: Solid Build Quality, Very Responsive, doubles as gas & brake pedals for driving games!
  
• Cons: Pedals are a bit close together, some male players have reported this is uncomfortable, the springs that recenter the pedals are really strong and take getting used to.
  
• I own this and it is my primary yaw pedals.
  
  CH Pro Throttle: $123
  
  
• Pros: Solid Build Quality, very responsive throttle, mini analog stick,
  
• Cons: Throttles Physical Range is a bit short, no center indent or tension control, Kinda ugly, mini stick might require high deadzones.

  CH Eclipse Yoke: $201
  
  
• Pros: Good for Flying & Driving, plenty of buttons, and flappy paddles for yaw or gear shifting
  
• Cons: No triggers, might not be ideal for combat.
  
• I want one.
  
  Also note that the joysticks and throttles from the Thrustmaster FCS and Warthog can be bought separately making them worth considering as options here.
  
  FINALLY I will leave you with a word of warning. The Saitek X-55 and X-56 might look tempting, but they have shoddy build quality and will break on you. I used to have an X-55, and I've seen the inside of the X-56 and they both have the same problems. They are a time bomb, do not buy them. Also someone will more than likely eventually comment saying they own one of these devices and have had zero issues out of them, lucky them I hope they never have an issue, but Saitek is known for terrible Quality Control and with the exception of the X-52 buying a Saitek product is not worth the gamble even though Logitech now owns them and is known for great build quality, there are too many items from when Mad Catz owned them floating around in the wild.

I don't own one so I can only speak from what I've read on the XB1 subreddit and reviews on sites like Amazon

What am I missing here? Do you have a point or are you unable to search Amazon?

EDIT: Sorry, I just copied some links for this guy in a haste. Didn't realise he just wanted to ask some dumbass questions to paint me as a liar. There is a link for an Xbox directly from Amazon with a game too for only $2 more.

Just my humble anti-PCMR battlestation.

Amazon also dropped the price to $119: https://www.amazon.com/Xbox-One-Elite-Wireless-Controller/dp/B00ZDNNRB8

OH MY GOODNESS.

Does this thing do your laundry or something?! That's insane!

OTHER SELLERS - HERE

The thing is, the analog stick allows you to use the controller in other games as well. The Raion is literally completely unusable in any modern game outside of fighting games and sidescrollers. And the Raion is literally priced identical to an entry level fighting stick, whereas the Mad Catz and Hori pads are more like "cheap third party pads". To put that price into context, it's more than the Xbox Elite Controller.

Use an Xbox One Elite Controller.

Got one when they released, just feels right now. It doesn't actually help at all with CS:GO, I only use two paddles, one is assigned to push to talk, and the other to inspect, which is why I'm inspecting all the time. I just always have my finger on the paddle.

Really overpriced, but again, I just like how to feels. It's extra weighty, and the leather grips feel nice.

There's the elite controller for $149: https://www.amazon.com/Xbox-Elite-Wireless-Controller-one/dp/B00ZDNNRB8

If you're running through controllers that often, I'd recommend just getting a standard controller with a warranty so that you could swap it out when it's no longer working.

I would also recommend just changing the way you're utilizing the controller. No official brand controller should be wearing down with however many hours you could possibly be playing in half a month. I'm probably one of the biggest grinders of HUT in the world and I don't even burn through controllers at that rate.

Market price: $149.99

Member price: $149.98

What a deal

Edit: but in all honesty the title on the Dell page is "Dell - Hard drive - 36 GB - hot-swap - 3.5-inch - SAS - 15000 rpm - for Dell PowerEdge 2950 (3.5-inch)" which this is not a HDD unless the controller has some flash storage or huge updates.

Edit#2: Well Amazon has a decent amount of 1 star reviews which may steer people away from these controllers.

Amazon prime $133

Here’s the elite 1 for 150. It seems there’s an elite 2 coming out in a week or so which is closer to 180.

Are you serious?!

You think you are playing against guys that are running stock controllers 100% of the time? You are often playing against mouse and keyboard players too.

I am running high end LAN cable to my Xbox and my controller is WIRED. No client side lag. No Bluetooth delay.

That’s gaming.

If you can afford the exorbitant price of $150, the Xbox Elite Controller is downright amazing. It feels great, you can map any button to any other button, you can switch out dpads and thumbsticks, and it has a nice weight to it. comes with a really long USB cable too, and it works with the Xbox One Wireless Adapter if I'm not mistaken. Here's the Amazon link- http://amzn.com/B00ZDNNRB8

Yea it's a very common thread there, and you can't blame people, you'd expect better from a $150 controller than some flimsy parts and a 90 day warranty. Seems like people either love it or get a crappy one. It's what's kept me from getting one even though some of my friends rave about it

Also check Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00ZDNNRB8/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8

It has like 20% 1 star reviews, seems like meh build quality and/or qc

I bought one on Amazon 3 days ago.

Still 3 left in stock. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00ZDNNRB8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1518463997&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=xbox+elite+controller&dpPl=1&dpID=41iMgbuVGML&ref=plSrch

Dang. Well, if I have to pony up for an official controller anyway, I may as well go big or go home.

Will this do?

Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZDNNRB8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_etDozb04W9JVA

If you're on Xbox get the Xbox One Elite, not a SCUF. It comes stock with all the customization options that would cost you over $200 to upgrade to with a SCUF.

Unless you value cosmetic customization more, then SCUFs are great.

Here's a cheaper alternative but I would say yes if the price doesn't go above $140. Also, Xbox Elite Controllers are the same thing basically with better paddles. http://www.amazon.com/Collective-Minds-XBOX-ONE-Strike-Pack/dp/B01720MZJO/ref=sr_1_6/186-8082418-4017529?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1463971487&sr=1-6&keywords=xbox+elite+controller

Amazon is NOT sold out. Scroll down on http://amzn.com/B00ZDNNRB8 to where it says "52 new from $149.00 / 3 used from $199.99".

They are a bit more pricey, but they're there.

Have you read all of the reviews on amazon? Is the 90 day warranty true? $150 is a little steep when you consider that the Xbox 1 is selling for under 200 used with a controller. I'd guess the price drops later this year, and definitely next.

Read the top comments. Hold off forever. If I had a pic of the piece that broke, you'd laugh at how cheap the material is.

no worries fam just grab one of these and you can play with one hand. you can remap any button fuction anywhere and there are 4 paddles on the back (two on the right) so the only issue might be using the left stick for looking but no one does that anyways. Also chat might be difficult but hey thats what rehab is for.

edit: oh yeah left is for steering but you can use your hand or thumb if its strong enough

This is probably higher quality than the regular viersion, but I've never used one.

edit: Actually, reviews don't look good. Idk.

2. That could work. I mean people really like the XB1 elite controller (link for reference) and it has a few buttons in the back. I think it's a not a simple thing to pull off well but is possible. I'd like to try the elite controller in person to get a better idea
