  1. XBOX One controller: Left analog stick drifting and clicking


    Just to keep a log of the replacement status I will post how my experiences will be with customer support.

    Bought my XBOX One console end of september 2014.

    After a month of playing FIFA my left analog stick began to drift and click.

    Due to my work I wasn't able to return the controller at the time so I finally returned it on 6 november through UPS.

    I will be posting how this will advance from here on.

    I've been a satisfied customer since the first XBOX ( and have been a Gold member since day 1 ).

    I have had a defective XBOX 360 once, and I must honestly say that support has been very good then, so I am confident this won't be a problem.

    Only hope i'll be getting a replacement controller soon so I can use my XBOX One again asap.

    :)

  3. FPS gamers, what is the average life span of your analog sticks?

    Hello everyone XBOX One controller: Left analog stick drifting and clicking :)

    I just replaced the Xbox One controller that came with my Kinectless Xbox One bundle yesterday so it lasted me 8 months.

    The left analog stick wasn't very responsive to Destiny's click it down to run function and the right analog stick was drifting up (making it hard for me to snipe without having to compensate for the up drift).

    Have a nice day or afternoon or night everyone XBOX One controller: Left analog stick drifting and clicking :)

    Day One controller thumsticks drifting

    I am having the same problem. My left analog stick is drifting up, and it is getting worse, almost to the point where I can't control it. Microsoft needs a fix, nothing is broken in the controller, seems like a calibration is needed. Is there a way to
    recalibrate the analog sticks?

    Xbox ONE controllers are poorly manufactured :(

    called analog / stick drift.... it will happen... all my 360 controllers did this... considering the left stick is the most used... and chances are you play games that rely heavily on this stick... (FPS).. no wonder that one function will wear down over
    time
