    xbox controller erratic


    my controller acts erratically - if left untouched for 2 seconds the Y stick automatically drifts the screen upwards - it can be brought down again but basically needs to be constantly active or moved to maintain control of the screen view. I have 2 controllers
    and only one does this so it is not a console problem - it is a controller problem

    I think this should be warranty

    has anyone else experienced this ??

    :)

    Fallout new vegas glitch

    Hi Mr BeatBox,

    Did you make sure to install the latest game update by connecting to XboxLive before launching the game?

    If that is the case, do you have another Xbox controller to test? Maybe the in-game walking glitch is the result of a problem with the xbox controller sending erratic data to the console.

    Let us know.

    Thanks

    Controller Battery Level Indicator

    This is silly. On the 360 you simply hit the guide button. Now you have to wait until the controller becomes erratic before you know the batteries are low?

    Is MS working on a fix for this?

    Xbox One controller behaving erratically.

    Upgraded from Day One console to Halo 5 bundle; Audio IR control for Vizio Soundbar no longer works!

    Patiently waited for update, hoping it would fix this.

    NO LUCK. Same issues; IR control is still erratic and broken.

    Is anyone from Microsoft reading this thread???
