Xbox One Controller Right Analog Stick Issue STRANGE

J A IM S T 3 R · Sep 15, 2015

Ive had my Xbox One for over a year now with no problems at all up until a week ago when my controller developed a problem.

The right analog stick is drifiting up, but strangely you can clearly see that the stick is physically still and is not moving, however it is asif the xbox thinks im pressing up but im not. For example if i was one a Shooter, Call of duty for example, then
my camera would be gradually looking into the sky whenever i let go of the analog, as im sure you can understand , this is very frustrating and can leave certain games unplayable e.g FIFA.

The strange part about this issue is i borrowed a friends controller a few days after so i could play properley, this controller worked perfect for a day or two, but then developed the same problem. Surely its a bit strange how 2 controllers have developed
a problem within a week, when ive had the Xbox for over a year and not had one problem up until this. I tried my controller on a friends Xbox one, and the problem still persists, which confirms it is the controller at fault and not the Xbox , or is it both?

Im now in a awkward situation, as i dont want to buy a controller if it is also going to have this problem, especially as they are not cheap.

Can anyone please give me the reason for why this is happening,and will a brand new controller definately sort the problem out?!

Xbox one controller has one flaw

When you compare the xbox one controller to the ps4 controller, the xbox one controller has one flaw.

More of a health and safety problem actually.

The "r3" right analog stick on the xbox one controller takes a bit of force to push it in, alot more force compared to the ps4 controller. ps4 controller right analog stick, you can push it in many times with out any repercussions to your wrists.

When you need too use the r3 analog stick on the xbox one controller to do things repeated in a game , such as go to third person while you are driving a tank. You press r3 in todo that.

I bought a brand new controller and it paired fine but the Xbox one is still not responding to the right analog stick of the new controller.

Might be a controller issue. Very used controllers tend to get the analog to stick a bit to one direction. Try to Roll both Analog sticks to sort of unstick and recenter the analog sticks. Or better yet replace the controller for a new one. Mine sometimes
get stuck a bit to the right and my character looks to the right very very slowly.

In MW3 try to adjust the look sensitivity to the lowest possible setting. If then your character slowly looks upward to the sky then i guess the analog sticks need repair. Adjusting the sensitivity to a higher setting will make your character look up to
the sky way faster than the lower sensitivity settings. This is a clear sign of old controllers that needs replacment. If ever your controller is still new then hopefully you can exchange it for a new one.

My left analog stick is looser than the right stick. I noticed that a couple of days ago. Figured it was because of COD. On my PS3 I went through 3 controllers with the left analog stick having issues. I had an issue with the controller on my 360 as well;
left analog stick. So it might be an issue not sure. I'll probably just buy another controller when they come out in different colors and go from there with it unless it gets worse.

Hi Tbxd,

Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We understand you are having issue with right analog stick. Does the analog stick work in a game or anything going right? If it does try updating the controller. If it doesn't may want to think on a repair if new, or
replacement if older controller.

Thanks,

Brad
