Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller Issues With Rocket League

Very interesting problem @Atreezy. The controller is "not supposed to do that", when I asked my friends.

Their suggestion is the thumbstick tension is set to light (I understand it is settable with a tool that came with the controller kit). This makes sense due to when you disable the thumbstick, the screen no longer moves with just tilting the controller.

Basically, with the controller tilted you are having inadvertent inputs that you should not be having. Try adjusting the thumbstick tension and let us know if the results give what you are expecting. I believe it will work as designed.

I just got the white elite series 2 and it has the same issue. it keeps getting discounected on PC.. I can not play Rocket League at all using this controller even with a cable... paid top dollar for this controller 150 dollars to only get disappointend.. Microsoft you should do better to test your hardware and bluetooth before shipping products to end users.. this is sad.. ((

Hello, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with your Elite 2 controller while playing Rocket League. Let's try the following to solve the problem:

1. Make sure your Elite 2 controller is running the latest firmware version. You can do this by connecting the controller to your PC using the Xbox Accessories app and checking for available updates.

2. Double-check your controller mapping settings in both Rocket League and the Xbox Accessories app. Make sure the bindings are set correctly on the desired buttons and paddles. You may want to try reassigning the air boost and rotation functions to different buttons or paddles to see if the problem persists.

3. If possible, try using a different driver to see if the problem persists. This can help determine if the issue is specific to your Elite 2 controller, or if it is a more general issue.

4. Try uninstalling and reinstalling Rocket League to make sure the game files are not corrupted. This can sometimes resolve unexpected driver issues.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.
Best regards.

Update: I fixed it by going back into Big Picture settings and checking the box about the Xbox controller config. Reloaded the game, it said default settings for Rocket League, zero problems. Makes even less sense to me now, but it works without issue.

I'm using built-in Bluetooth, but I have zero issues with any other game, even after hours of continuous playing. With this one game I have an issue.
