DS4 Controller Frontal Sensitivity

[fodder4u]

How old is your controller too btw? If your controller is the first generations, they have problems with the shoulder pads. And sometimes, this causes problems to surface in other parts of my calibration. My first generation controller tends to pan my camera slightly in a circle when I would set it down. After I found out that they have the second generation out, they fixed the many problems that were apparently in the first generation controller.

I tried two controllers. One was a year or so old, another was 2ish years old. I checked their inputs on DS4Windows. They both were in working order. If I move the analog stick in a circle, it perfectly follows the path. And in-game I can move straight forward, I just have to make sure its perfectly straight up. Its just that in most games Ive played using my DS4 on the PC, there is clearly some leeway moving in the forward direction so you don't have to be perfect. My controller works perfectly on Destiny 2 for example.

Hmm... Thats pretty odd.... Because ever since I got the newer generation controllers, everything is fine after-wards.... Did you check your analog sensitivity under system settings?

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

I apologize for the delay in my response. You mentioned trying two different controllers, were they both DS4 controllers? Have you tried using another type of controller? Does it have the same result?

Do you use the controller with any kind of controller configuration? For example, the Steam Controller Configuration can be active even if you don't launch the game through Steam.

I've tried to replicate this but the controller worked as it should.

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

My controller does the same thing, it's a bit annoying to compensate for.

I use the default Steam controller configuration for the game.
