Problem with controller left thumbstick

Hi,

I bought camo edition of Xbox One controller and only game Im playing is FIFA 15.

I played maybe 30 games and my left thumbstick stop working correctly. Is not very accurate, sometimes its feels like is jammed inside, which make my player run in one direction and doent want to turn until I realase thumbstick. Its also make some weird
grinding/popping sound when I 'making circles' with my left thumbstick.

I replaced my controller and after 2 weeks I got exactly same problem with the new one.

I feel really dissapointed with quality of the new controllers. My xbox 360 controllers are working with no problem for years and the new one is lasting for only two weeks :/

:)

Controller left stick broken

yes, left thumbstick break, drift.... is a very well known problem. Google it and you'll find 100's of post on this faulty part with controllers. I own 2 white lunar and 1 black one, all have left drift. I also have a 4th controller that will not turn on.

The controllers thumbsticks are junk in my opinion.

Found your post googling how to solder, trade in.....what to do after my 3rd controller left thumbstick started sticking last night.

 

Hi lordmagic!

I would try exchanging it at the store or contacting Microsoft support! If you have any other questions please feel free to post back!

 

Hey, thanks for replay

There is no problem with replacing, new controller is already on the way. It take me 2 minutes and I found houndrets of stories about exactly same problem.

THE REAL PROBLEM is that Microsoft keep selling controllers with some obvious defect and pretending that there is no problem. Shame on you
Satya Nadella!

 

^ Yeah, a lot of them have issues. I have a normal controller but I also had the advanced warfare special edition one and it was fine, thankfully.
