Since last realm reset, two ps4 friends and myself have been have the camera randomly putting out characters into left turns by itself as if we were holding down our movement stick on the controller.
Its not game breaking, but just annoying, more so when trying to dodge area effects.
Cheers for any help or feedback.
try recalibrating/resetting the controller?
how old are they? I've had issues before with older controllers and movement issues. might be time for a new one.
Good morning and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.
To clarify, is the character moving, or does the camera move?
Have you attempted using a different controller? Does this exhibit the same issue?
Are you using the controller wirelessly or connected with a USB cable? Have you tried both?
We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
Sorry, looking back on your questions i should have clarified it better.
Not sure on my friends, but i use 2 controllers, one charging while other one is in use. both are 3-4 months old.
Don't think you can recalibrate the controllers without opening them up, but 5-6 controllers across 3 people id wager its not the problem.
Both are standard wireless, charging cable is way to short for me to play, but i know one of my friends does and he has this issue as well.
The camera turns, not character, so right stick on the controller, as if your panning the camera to see to your left, but since i play legacy, its the whole character turning.
Thanks for your quick replies.
It’s probably not the case since this just started happening and you most likely haven’t touched your settings, but I know I’ve seen a setting for joystick sensitivity (or something like that) and if you move that all the way or really close to 0 it seems to make your character move slightly even when you aren’t touching anything.
Its a half speed turn, so not the slight movement when you have calibration off centre by a bit, nor is it a full press/tilt to run.
Was trying to force it to happen today, but anything i tried did not start it off. Few random instances include adjusting auto flight in azim, running up and dismounting to call a retainer, and casting spells in 70 dungeons.
Odd detail: if the character is auto turning, holding down L2 pauses it, but starts again on releasing.
Bonkerz thank you for the reply!
I apologize for the delay in my response. Have you tried a separate controller from the two you are experiencing the problem with? Also does this issue occur if the controller is connected to the PS4 with the wire?
Hope to see you online!
