I made a decision. Buy 2 cheaper controllers

A while ago I asked about a good controller for racing. Turns out the best option is a standard Xbox controller as that offers the best impulse trigger vibrations and have a pretty long travel. I considered the elite cos in other games I need more buttons but I don't fancy buying a controller that will work great for Forza and kinda disappoint me for the rest so I decided to get 2 controllers. Also I started playing shooters on controller which I used to do only with k&m but man the joysticks on these controllers suck.

I will get the Forza edition Xbox controller. That leaves about 100ish euro for the general purpose controller.

Since the kind of controller I'm looking for has changed massively I decided to ask for advice once more

I have big hands so the G7 pro is out.

Things I'm looking at are the flydigi Vader 5 pro. But that's hard to get in Spain

8bitdo is a lot like switch controller in shape so they are out.

Things I want:

  • Tunable stick curves
  • Extra remappable buttons
  • Tmr sticks
  • Swappable sticks caps or easy to replace
  • Adjustable stick tension would be nice
  • big hands comfort

Nice to have:

  • charging dock or replaceable batteries

Games I'm currently playing that made me want a better controller:

  • Sniper contracts.
  • Hitman.

Other games I will play with this controller:

  • pragmata
  • doom dark ages
  • ace combat 8
  • cyberpunk dlc
  • forbidden west
  • hellblade 2
  • death stranding 2

Platform: pc

Budget: 120euro

Region: spain

Looking for advice: Stabilizers

Hi. I just unlocked stabilizers. How should I tune them? Nothing in this game reacts like expected so I got no idea.

For that matter any tips on tuning the suspension of the supra and the old Evo would be appreciated.

I read the Evo was really good cornering but atm the supra is better so maybe I'm doing something wrong

Thanks

What are these called? Can't search how to remove them if I don't know the name

The white stone like margins. Originally where surrounding green patches on the farm

I'm at a loss. Can't find the right controller for a mainly racing use.

Hi.

I've been looking at replacing my 10year old Xbox one controller as it started developing a very slight drift.

I play on pc. Only pc compatibility is required.

Here's a list of things I need:

  • Implulse triggers. Must work with Forza horizon and feel as good as or better than the standard Xbox controller.
  • Durability. I'd like it to last another 10 years
  • Good ergonomics. Xbox style preferred. I got big hands.
  • Good feeling triggers for proper modulation.
  • Gripy sticks for good steering control. Replaceable sticks as an alternative. I can make sticks myself.
  • Low latency Wireless connectivity.

Here's what I'd like to have:

  • Adjustable stick tension. Never had it. Seems like would be good for racing.
  • Extra buttons. For those games where you just run out.
  • Hall effect sticks. I guess it improves durability and deadzones can be set lower.

The following is a list of controllers I've considered and why they won't do:

  • Xbox elite 2: bad QC
  • Xbox standard: slippy sticks. Currently I have modded sticks but I don't fancy opening up a brand new controller.
  • Turtle beach stealth ultra: reports of drift and connectivity issues
  • Gamesir g7 pro: reports of weak impulse triggers and bad triggers
  • Victirx bfg pro reloaded: can't verify support for impulse triggers and bad quality reports
  • ROG raikiri 2: almost perfect until I discovered the impulse triggers don't work with the dongle.
  • Vader 5s: looks really good but it's wired.

What I think would be the perfect controller: Xbox elite 2 but made properly.

Budget: 200euro if it's like perfect. Region: Europe, EU, Spain

Most played games: Forza horizon, other racing games like txr, nfs, jdm Snowrunner Farming sim Story driven action games ie mirrors edge, death stranding, horizon, God of war, Spiderman, samson Casual shooters like sniper.

I know it's a big ask but I'm at a loss. Bout to just buy another cheap official Xbox controller tbh.

Thanks in advance

PS: I will post a pic of my steering joystick in the comments once the post is approved. It's basically a hollowed out Xbox joystick. Think of it of the most concave a joystick can be

How do I stop this permanently? It only ever pops up while in the car. Its super annoying

Ads on the mirror of a paid to enter restroom that wouldn't turn off when I was in front

Took the pic off to the side to avoid being in the reflection but this and would not turn off when I was in front. My theory goes it detects faces but as I was wearing sunglasses (they are prescription) it may have failed to register a person. I'll give them this. Cleanest restroom in the whole motorway.

Need help running suspension

I'm running my GR86 but the suspension settings don't quite do what I expect them to. When I soften the front to reduce understeer the car just feels sluggish. I just can't make the car rotate properly.

Work changed the privacy policies so now I can't see my work meetings on my phone.

It's important to note all meetings show as busy and cannot be changed. Not only can't the name be seen but neither can the location or even if I accepted it or not. So I don't even know when I'm actually busy.

This is infuriating for 3 reasons.

I'm not always at my desk so it's good to know what's coming up.

I used to get notified on my watch making it really hard to miss a meeting.

When booking time off, I can't see when I have important meetings unless I'm at my desk.

Sidenote, adding the work account to personal devices is not allowed either. My workaround was sharing my work calendar with my personal account.

This auxiliary battery is placed in such a bad spot it took 20min to replace

Seriously you don't need to make replacing a battery a 50 step process.

It's a mercedes w246. Replacing this involves multiple blind operations under the glovebox as well as removing the cabin filter.

How to get sniper missions

The whole pack system is really confusing. I got part one during the summer sale. I would like to play the sniper stuff, just seems fun, but whats the cheapest way to get that? Game wants me to pay 70euro for the 3 missions and a bunch of stuff I don't want.

That would be 40 for the upgrade to the full game which unlocks mission 1 and 30 for the deluxe pack that unlocks the rest. Afaik.

Thanks in advance

Louis. You agreed to a wrong statement on your latest video.

Some digital products are available forever.

You can buy and download flac files on qobuz.

You can buy and download drm free games on gog.

Patched TY volume is very low

Compared to other apps the volume of YouTube is really low.

Is there a way to fix it? If not, would it be possible to implement a gain slider on YouTube?

Looking for an app to stop Dazn from scanning my phone

I have shizuku. I tried permission manager X but it fails to revoke some permissions to the app and it's still doing the thing.

Dazn is scanning for apps they don't like. Shizuku in this case. Meaning they are probably collecting and selling that info too. They also have access to calendar, contacts, location, nearby devices.

Idk if it's a permissions thing or that this app isn't suitable for this.

Using thedjchi fork of shizuku. Nothing 3 with nothing os 4.1

Thanks!
