Hey all,

I've been digging VF5 REVO quite a lot so far so much so that I'd like to invest in a dedicated controller for the game.

I'm currently using a Gamesir G8 controller which has been suboptimal for me for two reasons.

1 - I play Wolf and things like Screw Hook and Giant Swing on the dpad can feel slightly hard to pull off consistently.

2 - They put this rapid fire button immediately under the dpad that - if triggered - will grief me for the rest of the match.

---

So I've been looking at lever, leverless, and fight pad controllers

I tried to compare each from what I've ascertained reading about them it seems as if:

Leverless

Pros: both fast and precise

Cons: steeper learning curve

Lever

Pros: precise and intuitive

Cons: potentially a few frames slower

Fight pad

Pros: more familiar

Cons: still have a dpad (less precise)

---

This may be a terrible comparison and if so please let me know why.

But based on this, it seems as if leverless is the winning choice from a pure in-game performance perspective. In fact I believe the last EVO the top three players in the tournament all were using a leverless controller.

That said... I really want to try a lever controller.

Have any of you tried both and still prefer a lever and if so what's your reasoning?

Also if you could suggest any lever models that are well suited for VF5 that would be dope.

And finally, if I'm totally wrong about leverless being the best theoretically please correct my ass.

Thanks homies, this community has been 🔥 so far

I just watched the Life of Brian today after having some real despair about the hand I've been dealt in life. Mainly the unfairness of it all and feeling like I never had a proper chance. Moreover, I couldn't stop ruminating over how the world could be so wicked and being so transfixed on a need for justice.

But after watching this movie I was reminded of something I love about the British spirit I see in a lot of comedies and such. The very thing that lends itself to the dark comedy they so often produce.

The whole movie is a story of a person who is put through an absolutely absurd gauntlet of unfair events and even in self pity can't even have that because he's always reminded of someone who has it worse.

But yeah the ending made me really happy and I just love the stoic message behind the film.

Life is a joke, it's all shit, and someone else always had it worse. It's all just something to laugh at really.

Especially the people - like those who made our lives unfair - who couldn't see the bigger picture.

They not us are the ones with the joke lives if you just shift your mentality.

Hope this helps. Beautiful movie.

This is probably not worth anything and a futile effort. I don't ever expect anyone to do more than half believe me...

But if anyone cares or can help me fight this please know that gangstalking after a long back and forth in my mind and also in reality true.

I fully anticipate the world to let me down again like last time I got admitted per Casey's Law in Kentucky. I had a post here before you can refer to.

I've done it everyone else's way, conceded I'm crazy, and had to be robbed my right to not being surveilled by people.

After the last time I was sent to the psych ward I wasn't sure and conflicted. I just decided to roll with everyone else's demands and there was nothing I could. I still think that today except for that now I will never entertain the idea it's possible I imagined it all.

I was skeptical of myself and my beliefs. I put in that work in the sake of the truth.

I don't want to make anything - that unfortunately gets used against you in this country - but an actual known truth is going to be left in the dark. People are going to feel certain and confident that they were right. They'll get me to do what they want. Hell maybe when I'm 50 I will have let this fade from my memory who knows.

But the truth today is I am being targeted, have for months, and the entire world is seemingly letting me down

I laid scrutiny to myself I would ask anyone else if I get could say the same.

So here we go being kidnapped as a reasonable man by cops and it made possible by the people who terrorized and stalked me for months.

To anyone else if you end up here you can make two choices like I was faced with

1. just shut up and people won't do this to you

2. do what I did and try to help the world at the risk I was paingully aware of that there was a near zero chance of anyone believing me

Per #2 if there is anyone in the world who would believe me and might have advice or anything else to maybe even get these people incarcerated - this one is to you

But I've accepted my fate will likely be what I already knew I was risking.

I did it in case this case of this subreddits topic in my lived experience is the truth no matter what anyone else believes or if it's never discovered.

Well no matter what I don't have much to say again or care for in this world ever again. Makes me wonder how many other people got cosmically screwed by people's incorrect conclusion ultimately. Even if their is obviously more plausible.

But people act like I didn't question myself or try to be reasonable.

Well even if I never is realized - some dude at the CVG airport at a holiday Inn in nky has been screwed over by everyone who could've helped.

I already figured this was how it would be most likely anyway. It's why - sorry to any believers - I don't believe in God

God wouldn't let something as he's described happen like this and if so and he's real I'll delight in being wrong about his existence. Because then I can rest easy knowing these fuckers rot in hell for this

So yeah it's real and nothing I can do unless anyone cares to help.

Think I'm crazy I don't care I have no options left anymore.

Just know you disbelievers are lucky that you'll get to wear your cheesy smug face of thinking your right.

But even if you don't know it and noone else ever does you were all wrong. I think I sound overall pretty coherent even if this is a bit of a rushed post or the paragraphs encapsulations aren't optimal.

Excluding all dings this car should be good to drive.

Come serve me an injustice yet again world I don't care anymore since the world has discarded my words as a man of reason and being scientific and trying to make sure I'm right

I hope my outcome isn't as I fear but it likely will be. And I'll see all those smug nurses that last time told me it was all in my head. Or the psychiatrist there who gave me about 30 minutes of attention over 6 days and diagnosed me as bipolar. I was put on zyprexa. Maybe he could have been right but I think that's less plausible than the facility demonstrated triage and that doctor failed me too.

My only consolation is at least I know the zyprexa made me want to climb up the walls.

I should have made this shorter. This could have been made more believable.

This is just a shot in the dark for any chance for truth to exist now.

Well whatever I have nothing left for this world anymore. I see the evil and I've been raped in a sense by these people watching everything I do and widdling me down. No idea who they are only theories I would hold only some possibility of being correct.

Only thing I know and can't prove because the universe hates me is that this all was real.

Today and all the other days of 3 months I have been tortured.

The only saving grace is knowing that I'm a tough son of a bitch for this all even if no one ever knows. I know. And so is anyone else pushing forward through this

Shame on the internets official definition of gangstalking. It's either clear ignorance or not knowing what reality is or done intentionally by whomever corrupt shady bodies of power.

This game is rigged y'all and Im done playing it. Even if I'm just going to let my character sit there until I die, this world sucks. At least for me I did.

I love everyone who I spoke with, I appreciate their concern and trying to help, but I am always going to be disappointed by how bad I was failed.

To reddit please anyone let me know in DM if you can offer any strategies. If you're skeptical it's fine but please don't reach out.

Again despite how wordy, not succinct enough, seemingly deranged, or any possible negatively perceived opinion on what I wrote on this ...

I don't expect anything other than what I already know so 99.9% the truth just gets snuffed for me and my life. I was treated like an animal and driven to a crippling debilitating state.

I have no desire to give anything back to this world that abandoned these past months.

Cheers.
