I still don't know why people eat/drink while playing, if its water that's fine, but like juice or soda... no. Had the same problem, I found a Xbox 360 chrome controller at Goodwill and it was Sticky both outside and in the buttons, Dirty, and overall looking like it didn't work, took it home and gave it a clean and it looked brand new I was surprised that it wasn't all scratched up just a little bit and it worked perfectly!
@gucky4717
@gucky4717 3 года назад
I use a Xbox Elite V1 on my PC (and old PS ones). My Controllers only have little of that sweat residue and dust on them XD. Oh and of course the Sticks are worn down. I had a little Stick wobble issue with that Elite v1, but i fixed it by opening it up and using tape to make a tighter connection to the Stick dome. The worn down Sticks can be easily fixed since they are magnetic. I wish there would be a V3 Elite Controller with maybe the haptic motors of the PS5. (I don't need the adaptive triggers, they break easily...unless they are made out of metal and not plastic)
