my friend pastore gonzalez recently bought an xbox one controller without knowing that he had a problem with the left stick, he opened the control to try to check it but when closing it completely destroyed one of the electronic boards.
the card broke exactly on the track through which passes a chip that we presume is the distance sensor of the triggers, although it only broke on the left side does not work the right trigger.
we investigate how magnetic triggers works on this page
fortunately we were able to disconnect that part of the electronic track that connects with both triggers, so now the control has only the pulse buttons. The axis of the left stick will be replaced soon, for the moment it is a control in the style of the old school. We decided to try the control with dirt showdown, we tried to configure it in skyrim but the character starts to no sense spinning and we could not change the movement of the stick to the left cross, in Dirt Showdown it allowed us to change it but we have other difficulties.
The years playing with stick makes us a bit complicated to adapt to the left cross for the direction of the car, even those who play on PC with games like gta and need for speed with the WASD setting can be a bit complicated with this change.
The triggers are needed for the intensity of acceleration and brake, with pulse buttons there is no percentage of pressure as there may be when using triggers, this ruins the realism to the driving experience and makes it difficult to do some tricks like drifts and donuts.
in spite of this I am happy to use control at least to play and distract, I intend to buy another one soon because it is the control with which I have felt more comfortable and that works with most of the games I play frequently.
