    Controller auto shut off?


    Why can I not choose when or if my controller shuts off at all? I think I can make the decision on whether I want my controller always on or not. Problem I'm having is I recently started playing with mouse and keyboard and the only way I know to still
    talk in chat is to have my headset plugged in on my controller. This is a problem because most games anymore take 10 plus minutes so it ends up turning my controller of towards the end of my games where things usually require more communication. I just feel
    like it's something I should be able to control and it seems like a pretty easy fix to put the option in settings to leave it on all the time. I don't see how this is already not an option, and it may seem like I bit of a rant but I'm just hoping someone from
    Microsoft sees this and maybe does something about it.

    :)

    Controller auto shut off?

    I have been arguing for this feature myself. I do enjoy playing with a keyboard and a mouse, but it makes things hard when I need to keep using my controller, so it will not shut off.

    Also thanks for the link I googled about this issue first and the only thing that showed up was for "xboxuservoice" or something along those lines. Anyways that page was no longer in existence. So this link helps.

    Controller auto shut off?

    I understand with the wire normally it would work but I have an elite 2 and somehow the wire doesn't matter. I'm guessing the console thinks because it's full charged so it no longer needs to stay on maybe? I just know I shouldn't have to buy a new controller
    just to keep it plugged in. Either way it should just be an option to keep it on but thank you for the help :)

    Controller auto shut off?

    Hi,

    The only way to let your controller always on its to plug a usb cable on a usb port, like this it will stay on... i know it could be frustating but its the only way. Put your comment here too ( https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2014/06/09/events-xbox-feedback-site-e3/ ) cause
    Microsoft like to read any feedbacks and maybe will make an update soon...

    Someone from Xbox support told me this!

    Great, but that would be operating under the assumption that the controller is on all the time (the wireless auto shut off after about 15 minutes)...
