Ps4 controller issue?

[Thoosa]

Hi there,

Occasionally if I press left 2 on the controller, my character walks to the left and round in a wide circle - is this a bug or is my controller broken?

I tried ESO and Cod and there doesn’t seem to be any obvious strange behaviour when I do left 2.

Thanks

Good morning and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

What platform are you playing on (PC, PS4, Mac)?

When did this first start? Is this a recent thing or have you been dealing with it for a while?

Do you have any other controllers you can try to see if it is the controller or the game?

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!

Hey,

It seems to happen at different intervals of play - it only happened recently too (ps4 and controller)

I bought a new controller today as the current one is quite old, so will try this and let you know if it still happens

Hiya,

Yep, looks like the new controller is fine, so I guess it was that after all

Ty for the help!
