My Controller Died

[Dzian]

easily the most common excuse for when someone fails in a duty. like i'm supposed to believe they're really a good player, except their controller died. a really good player who can't keep their controller charged

to be honest it's believable because:-

1: the battery life on the ps4 controller is utterly horrendous.

it's the sole reason I bought a 20ft usb lead so its never unplugged.. be lucky if a full charge on the ps4 lasts a few hours.. totally unlike the ps3 where you could charge it once a week and be fine..

2: pc gamepads are fairly notoriously buggy in this game where they drop and freeze for a few seconds or trigger random buttons something to do with a root enumerator, can be incredibly problematic. times where ive auto run off the island in Bismarck less than 5 seconds into the fight. or into a wall of instant death despite knowing for a fact I didn't press auto run. it just froze for a sec when I happened to press a direction and thus I kept running in that direction too my demise...

it's a fairly well known issue if you searched the forums pretty sure you'd find more than a few threads about it.. the problem is the solution ofdisabling the enumerators and stuff isn't terribly easy to find. SE could at least have it on there support pages or something as its seems to work for most people
