Thumbsticks have been in need of an in-depth look, so today I’ll be deconstructing what makes controller sticks behave in different ways. Believe it or not, there are many variables that affect your aim and I’ll likely be making a video on how to increase aiming accuracy sometime soon, as I have many tips and tricks to give. Anyways, I sincerely hope you guys enjoyed this one! If you did, please be sure to drop this video a like, and sub if you’re new. I’ll see you guys in the next one!

BTW, kontrol freeks only fit on the wolverines if they're ps4 kontrol freeks and you slightly modify them to fit over the wide thumbsticks. It should also go without saying that you SHOULDNT use kontrol freeks on sticks that are already extended. That's just ridiculous lol

@RohitKavuluru 3 года назад

I modified my right stick on my wolverine TE a bit, basically, I used a box cutter to carve out the three areas where the kontrol freek clicks on to the controller and it seems to work fine, but I feel like there could be a better strat to get a perfect fit

First time watcher and I was extremely impressed. Amazing knowledge you are sharing with us. I use the exact same kontrol freak tip on my xbox series 2. I got the right stick set to max tension and I've put a cushion ring from kontrol freak around my stick. The only down side is that it still feels like it needs more tension. Call me crazy but im still searching for something to give it more tension.

I’ve been playing Outriders and hating the aiming and movement. Picked up a PowerA Fusion Pro and went with the taller thumbstick and what do you know? The aiming seems fine now.

@PhantasmXYZ 3 года назад

I was hoping you'd touch upon "aim assist" foam rings as an alternative means of increasing stick tension/accuracy. I have the Elite 2 and hate the tall stick as well, so I use both a grip to add height to the stock stick AND a foam ring to increase the "range of force" I can apply to the stick; then I just increase in-game sensitivity beyond what is normal.

@vCuda 3 года назад

Separate video in 1-2 months depending on how I play it

@MrFloat777 6 месяцев назад

Ik this is 2 years ago but so many people don’t understand aim assist and it’s mechanics. Aim assist 99% of the time kicks in when the game detects any and all input from analog sticks. Therefor, having a minuscule amount of stick drift can = constant AA

The best combo I’ve used for FPS is I use a short ps5 concave stick on left for fast movement and long domed stick on right with grip it rubber top. Domed is easier to be precise for me because I can just roll my thumb slightly for small movements which are harder to do with concave sticks plus the rubber grip it make sure my thumb doesn’t slide off
