    I'm about to be going on my fourth series x controller with the last one being purchased father's day 2022 5 months ago already broken. The bumper prongs that press the button internally have broken on all three. Compared to Xbox one controllers they're incredibly thin and there's no need for them to be that way. Either an engineering oversight, or an intended flaw it's ridiculous. You can't even get quality third party replacements. It's making me consider changing consoles so I'm not spending $200-300 a year on controllers.

    I can't find one designed for series x controller. They are all for xbox one controller and don't fit series x controller properly.

    Why can’t I play my Xbox without being forced to cloud gaming?

    Battlefield 2042 is a next-gen game that is specifically designed to take full advantage of the capabilities of the Xbox Series X/S. If your friends have the Xbox Series . Xbox Series X/S game.

    Factory reset

    This works as of so far. Go to console settings, then go to system info.

    Do this series of keys to reset it.

    Left trigger, right trigger

    X,Y

    Left bumper, right bumper

    X, X

    Up on d-pad, down on d-pad

    Hope this works

    XBox Elite controller bumper issues

    The bumpers on my launch day Series 1 Elite Controller finally broke a few months ago. Was disappointed that an otherwise perfectly functioning controller (never had the grip issue with mine) was rendered useless because of the poor design of the bumpers.
    All the development that went into the Elite and no effort was made to improve this inherent weakness in all Xbox One controllers. I repaired it myself with a replacement bumper from ebay. Never had bumper issues with any of my 360 controllers.
