    Left stick not working in 2 player games (Xbox Series X)


    Recently my family started to play local 2 player games and we've noticed that whoever ends up being the 2nd player, their left stick does not work at all. It doesn't matter which controller they have as we have tried swapping controllers around. It doesn't matter if the controller is connected with USB or not.

    If we play 1 player games with either of the controllers, the left stick works on both controllers without any trouble. It's only when there is a 2 player game and the 2nd player is trying to use the left stick.

    Both controllers are official Microsoft controllers. One that was bought from Microsoft and the other that came with the Xbox Series X.

    Really frustrated and not sure how to fix it. Some games you can just put up with it, but other games are unplayable as the 2nd player.

    :)

    Left stick not working in 2 player games (Xbox Series X)

    Hello dear Gamer, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is Vinicius.

    I am a gamer and independent advisor on the XBOX community platform.

    Hey Luke, how are you today? Hope you're well.

    So, that's odd, it happens every time with every game on the 2nd player?

    Try this on the console:

    First clean the cache of your console that way:

    1. Hold the XBOX power button on the console for 10 seconds until you hear a small sound.

    2. Wait 10 seconds.

    3. Turn it back on.

    Note: It may take a while for him to call, don't worry, it's normal.

    Then, restore your console keeping the games and apps:

    ***IMPORTANT*** If you share accounts with someone, you will have to redo the process of placing the account as the main one again, be aware of the chances you still have to do this, as Microsoft makes available per year, only 5 chances so you can make some account your console's main account.

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the dashboard.

    2. Select System > Settings > System > Console Information >

    3. Select Reset console > Restore and keep my games and apps.

    4. When asking to pull settings from an old xbox, put no

    5. You will have to log in your accounts again, and when you sign in with your account, make sure you turn it has your home console also, that's it.

    NOTE: Rest assured, you won't lose games or saves

    Xbox series X Controller Question

    I have bought five new controllers for my Xbox series X game console. ON the Sniper Ghost Contract games 1 and 2 my controller shoots automatically with the left stick. Once you try to hold your breath and lock to shoot an opponent the controller sticks. This is a new problem for me other then the drifting of an old controller. Has anyone else complained about this issues.

    Modern Warfare Issue or Elite 2 issue?

    make sure that you not only map the config but assign it to a slot and that you are on that slot as active. I have the new elite series 2 and i map the left stick down to the left rear paddle; works fine.

    Elite Series 2 Controller, Larger paddles

    The Series 1 paddles and sticks are not designed to work with the Series 2 unfortunately, they do not stick/fit on properly. I understand the paddles for the Series 2 were purposely made smaller as many Series 1 users complained about accidentally pressing
    the paddles as they were too large. I would love and think it would be a smart idea for Xbox to sell various extra accessories for the Series 2. I used to use a tall dome stick on my right stick with the Series 1 and they only included a tall normal stick
    with the Series 2.

    elite series 2

    I have both and like the series 2 way better.

    Using the Accessories app, I tried all the Left and Right stick sensitivity settings to get them to my liking.

    Left stick: Smooth sensitivity curve

    Right stick: Instant sensitivity curve
